The Monday Wrap

[FBDonkey]

This is the Monday Wrap. The pace to tell the world how you went in SC on the weekend. Im sure there are plenty of people out there this week with some good brags, so post away:

Score - 2434

Overall ranking - 87th (up 10 spots)

Heroes - Goddard, Dal, Ablett, Selwood, HMac, new recruit Mitch Clark, Roo, Chappy, Higgins, Buddy

Villains - My backline. 2 scores above 100, 5 scores below 85

League Status - Big Footy Div 5 is up to 7th overall (im 6th)

Injury concerns - StevieJ is the only one which is nice. Also players like Hurley and Anthony have come back from injury to support my bench.

Trades - I lost points from trading pendles to rich last week. They should be made up by the end of the season tho. Only have LTI trades left.

Vent: Wish i had ROK. Wish i still had Hodgey.

Kudos: Goes to Nick Suban. Ive had to play him about 8 times, and he never really got above 80 but he put up a 112 on the weekend which is good for the kid (even if he was on my bench)

Thoughts - Crazy how high scoring this week has been. Good to see the hawks back in form. Im really looking forward to this weekend as there are heaps of good games on.

How was your supercoach weekend?

 

[Judd_Magic]

Score - 2486 (My highest score of the year and good to be in the land of 2300-2400 after a few lean weeks due to playing with injuries and dounuts.

Overall ranking - 232 (up from 337) Was ranked 187 a few weeks ago so its good to finally be going back up the overall rankings again.

Heroes - ROK, Goddard, Dal Santo, Ablett, Selwood, HMac, new recruit Mitch Clark, Roo, Buddy, Newman, Judd, Rich

Villains - Liam Anthony (Filling in for Bartel) and M.Brown (Filling in for both Pavlich and Stevie J) Can't expect much from 2 rookies though and Anthony has been great the last few weeks. M.Brown is also better than playing with Ballantyne or a dounut too. ROFL!

League Status - Big Footy Div 7 is up to 23rd overall (I'm 1st)

Injury concerns - Bartel. StevieJ and Pavlich are killing me as I have been playing with a dounut for the last few weeks in the forward line. M.Brown aint no superman! LOL! Hopefully Bartel and Pavlich are back this week and Stevie J too but I doubt it.

Trades - I traded out Cox for M.Clark and was instantly rewarded with 142 SC points from the big fella. Wish I had of done this weeks ago now.

Vent: Wish i had Hodge as he is gunning it. May try and get him in during finals but doubt I will be able to afford him then. Only have one trade left plus $172,800 and am trying to save the trade till finals where I hope to bring one more gun in somewhere.

Kudos: Go the ROK. Man has he been SC gold or what lately? Getting rid of Krakeour for ROK about 5 weeks ago was the best thing I have ever done but then I drafted in Stevie J and he has been sh1thouse and has only given me one decent score of 120 plus a 38, 44 and injured ever since.

Thoughts - Some massive scores this round after I thought it could be a low scoring one at one stage. LOL! I really need Bartel, Pavlich and Stevie J back this week to have my best available line up on the park. Think I will be up for some monster scores with them back on the ground and firing for me. Praying for lady luck that I don't cop an injury till at least the finals where I can use my last trade. HeeHee!

 

[Spudregus_87]

Score - 2196 (zeros to Cox and Pav)

Overall ranking - 12,009 (down 245 spots)

Heroes - Goddard, Swan, Ablett, Selwood, Rich, Cross, Riewoldt (new recruit), Chapman, Buddy

Villains - Drummond, Didak, Petrie & Ballantyne

League Status - 1st, 2nd & 3rd

Injury concerns - Pavlich & Cox....

Trades - One remaining with $187k. Really don't want to use it on replacing Cox, would rather upgrade Warren to someone like Boomer, Rob Murph, or even Goodwin/Davey/Richo/StevieJ if they somehow drop around the $400k mark.

Vent: Had Hodge at one stage this year. Would love just one more extra trade for finals. Looking back, could easily had 2-4 extra up my sleave. Wish Pavlich would come back and play, I don't care if he scores 80's for the rest of the year. Hope that Broughton & Grimes can finish off the year strong....

Kudos: Goddard as always, top stuff! Probably midfield this week; to have Judd's 107 as my lowest mid scorer makes me all warm inside.

Thoughts - Agree with Donkey, great to see the Hawks back in form, and I wouldn't be surprised if they rolled the cats this week. Looking at my final midfield's over the past two years, and I think I've stayed too safe. (09: Ablett, Swan, Judd, Selwood, Cross & Rich). Need to go with an Ablett/Goodes/Sewell/Hayes combo next year from the get-go.

 

[woodyman]

Score - 2515

Overall ranking - 9th (up 2 spots)

Heroes - Goddard, NDS, Selwood, HMac, Voldt, Chappy, Harvey, Hodge, Rich, Brown

Villains – M Brown, Davis, Pendles, Petrie, Gilbee

League Status – Don’t care.

Injury concerns – Need Pavlich back big time!!

Trades -

Vent: Still dirty i didn’t get ROK, too late now. Was so close to getting Clark over Petrie. Damnit.

Kudos: Rich for being a gun. Harvey for getting some form.

Thoughts – I had a decent score but need to keep it up. Not having ROK is hurting me. I need Pavlich back this week, M Brown is killing me.

 

[CaptainChardonnay]

Score: 2204

Leagues: Won all 3. 1st, Tied 1st, 4th.

Overall: Not even close!!!

Heroes: Harding, Swan, McIntosh, Rich, Ablett, Higgins, Franklin, Newman, Kornes, Judd. Special mention to Goodwin for outscoring Thompson against the saints. Went in to that game in a precarious position and got home by 13 pts.

Villains: Gilbee, Hurn, Gilbert, Kruezer

Injuries: Pavlich, Stevie J, Bartel.

Trades: Nil. No matter what. Don't care how good teh opportunity is.... maybe one....

Kudos: Anthony, Hill & Jurrah. Doing exactly what I need of them as bench players. i.e. Getting a ****ing game and scoring around 70!! Also to Lance, you hang in there son. I need you to keep racking up the 100+ games.

Vent: Gilbee.... You donkey. If I had some more trades you'd be history.

Thoughts: Bob Murphy, love your work. Only 85 but you are looking the goods. I want a big final series out of you!! And, If Jessie White keeps playing the way he is, Kruezer could find himself on the bench.

 

[Bloods]

Score - 2296

Overall - 715 (down 26 spots)

Leagues - Won all 3 games. 1st, 1st, 2nd.

Heroes - O'Keefe (you are a superstar), Newman, Hodge, Lockyer, Mackie, Ablett, Judd, McIntosh, Jolly, Riewoldt, Higgins.

Villains - Roughead, Porplyzia, Drummond, M.Brown, Anthony, Power.

Injuries - Pavlich, Bartel.

Trades - Possibly Otten -> Pendlebury but will probably wait another week as these trades are precious.

Kudos - Rookies Otten, Broughton and Nahas getting the job done, as well as having Grimes and Grima on the bench.

Vent - Porplyzia and Roughead, disgusting.

Thoughts - Score would be ok on most weeks but it was a high scoring week. Hopefully get Pavlich and Bartel back this week to climb the rankings again. Desperately need Pavlich so I can bench Mitch Brown!

 

[Ling Sting]

League Status - Big Footy Div 5 is up to 7th overall (im 6th)

brilliant league that one!!! I'm guessing you are Ace High?

I'm sitting 4th althought you are killing me in total position. Gotta love how the cookie crumbles in leagues sometimes.

 

[mightyhawks23]

Score - 2230

Overall - Doesn't matter

Leagues - Won all 3 games for once

Heroes - Rich, Roo, Ray, Guerra

Villains - Drummond

Injuries - Pavlich, Stevie J

Trades - Only 3 left; LTI only

Kudos - Grimes, Alwyn Davey

Vent - Adcock -> Drummond trade didn't pay off... was 5k short on getting Hodge instead

Thoughts - Need Pav and Stevie J back after getting 2 donuts in the forward line for a few weeks now. Still kicking myself when I got Buddy when ROK was available at about the same price (back Rd 7ish)

 

[NT.Thunder]

Score - 2342

Overall - 22 (down 6)

Leagues - Don't care

Heroes - O'Keefe (you are a superstar), Shaw, Hodge, Ablett, Selwood, McIntosh,Franklin, Chappy, JBrown, Goddard, Riewoldt, .

Villains - Cox, Porplyzia, Bartel, Power, Didak.

Injuries - Cox, Porps? Bartel.

Trades - Nil

Kudos - Good strong performance

Vent - Porplyzia and Didak disgusting.

Thoughts - 2 zeros so all in all a pretty good effort.

 

[Bomber4ever]

Score - 2,234

Overall - 14,488

Leagues - Won my only game

Heroes - Goddard, Enright, Bock, Newman, Ablett, Judd, Selwwod, Cooney, O'Keefe, Riewoldt, J. Brown

Villains - Ballantyne, Anthony, Gibbs, Kruezer

Injuries - Pavlich, Fraser

Trades - With only three left I don't think I will trade. Though I might cash in on Anthony or Rich later on in the season and upgrade Ballantyne

Kudos - ROK. Picked him up in round 10 and has scored 130 ever since.
Selwood for finally returning to form. And to me for choosing to trade in Bock instead of Drummond.

Vent - To me for deciding to bench Rich and play Anthony Cost me 80 points.

Thoughts - Hoping to get Pav and Fraser back this week. I'm thinking of making ROK captain this week but if I do Gazza will probaly come out and score 160.

 

[LemmingMaster]

Score - 2,502

Overall ranking - 83rd (up 30 spots)

Heroes - To many to name, but O'Keefe is my biggest hero

Villains - Davey, you've dropped the bundle recently.

League Status - NP - 2nd, BF Blues Div 2 - 3rd, BF Div 13 - 1st

Injury concerns - Bartel is the only problem and Sandilands

Trades - Cox to McIntosh, that worked out ok.

Vent: Nothing really, happy enough considering this is my first year.

Kudos: Goes to my team for lifting in the wake of the Big Sandilands not playing.

 

[Felixes Felines]

Score - 2532

Overall ranking - 37 (up from 63)

Heroes - ROK, Goddard, NDS, HMac, Voldt, Chappy, Rich, Browny

Villains – Davey, Pendles, Gilbee

League Status – 1st & 4th BF Div 4 (Tough league - 6th overall).

Injury concerns – Cox, Stevie J, Jimmy

Trades - Nil this week

Vent: Pissed off with Pav > Davey trade 2 weeks ago. Has given me jack sh?t scores of 70 & 56. Also dirty on last minute trade this week Muston > Pendles that put Davenport on the bench and he ripped out 168 to Pendles 85. Cost me BF Div 4 game.

Kudos: Roosy for finally playing Jessie White up Fwd. If White keeps up the 99 avg l will save the Cox trade. Richie & Rok keep pumping it out.

Thoughts – I had a decent score but still could not get me over the line in BF Div 4 game. Need Stevie J & Jimmy back this week and Davey to lift. Aim is still to finish top 100.

 

[OneEyedHawk]

Score - 2366

Overall ranking - 315 (up from 329)

Heroes - ROK, Goddard, NDS, Riewoldt, Selwood

Villains – Davis, Gilbee, Petrie, Tippett, Anthony

League Status – 1st (undefeated with a % of 125%+); & 1st (1 game clear)

Injury concerns – Stevie J; no cover down back, or in Rucks.

Trades - 5 left, $237k. Probably none this week (see below...)

Vent: Nothing really to whinge about. I picked a shocking week to trade out Rich, but Montagna should repay me. You'd hope.

Kudos: ROK. Got him at bargain basement price about 6 weeks ago, has dominated since.

Thoughts – Not sure where to go from here. 5 trades left, $237k in bank, got Anthony in need of an upgrade, playing Broughton & Grimes (keep or upgrade?), and Roughy as 7th forward (considering upgrade to Buddy?). Could just sit tight, with maybe just one pre-finals downgrade to fill up coffers...would leave me with 4 trades and about half a mill going into finals. Or fill my 6th midfield spot now. Dangerfield > Pendles would leave me cash for final 4 trades, but am not sold on Pendles, dunno whether I'd be better off emptying the wallet and bringing in Sewell or someone else??

 

[inwhiterooms]

Score - 2354

Overall ranking - 1,614 (up 191 places)

Heroes - NOT ALAN DIDAK, Goddard, Hodge, Bock, Selwood, H-Mac, Roo, Chapman, Missy Higgins

Villains – LINDSAY GILBEE, ALAN DIDAK, Kruezer on debut for me, Krakouer. As always many a villain and always a few stars to help ease the pain.

League Status – 2nd, 2nd, 3rd

Injury concerns – Bartel, fingers crossed he's right to go this week. Only other concern is Pavlich but he'll be back sooner than later.

Trades - 2 left and about $40k. Oh so tempted to show Gilbee the door when Drummond is only an extra $3,000. Highly doubt i'll do it though.

Vent: Purchased Alan Didak for 633,000 big ones this week and we all know how that went down. Could've got ROK too. fml.

Kudos: Really happy with how Bock's been traveling since he's returned from injury. I wanted him and his family dead after i brought him in on the thursday morning of the week that he was first a late withdrawl with a hammy twang. 3 blobs later and he was well and truly entrenched in my bad books. Scores consistent ton's week in, week out. Love im, love im.

Thoughts – Everythings going ok at the minute. Alan knows what he has to do this week so it's in his best interests to get 180+ this week for him and his family's sake. Slowly climbing the rankings about 200 places a week for the last month so hopefully that continues. Aim is to finish top 1000. Top 500 would be great. Realistically i don't think i can afford to off Gilbee although it's tempting. Have emergencies in every line bar rucks now so thats a good thing. McLovin.

 

[Hot Tiges]

Score - 2271

Overall ranking - 2052 down 82 spots

Heroes - Bock, Selwood, Ablett, Cross, Goodes, McIntosh, Riewoldt, Fev, Higgins, Franklin

Villains – Gilbee, Pendles, Porps,

League Status – 2nd (lost by 20) + 3rd (won by 9).

Injury concerns – Cox, Pavlich and possibly Porps

Trades - Monitoring the Cox/Pav situation and would love to get Drummond/Goddard in potentially for Hill then move Grimes to bench

Vent: Wrong week to trade Rich and also Porps, but he was playing St kilda though. Annoyingly has lost his set shot mojo since I got him in 3 weeks ago.

Kudos: Consitencey from Newman, Enright, Selwood, Goodes, Roo, Missy.

Thoughts – Not a huge score this week but looking to finish under top 1000. Like heaps of people, need Pavlich back and would love to know what is going on with Cox. Will make finals in both leagues pretty comfortably. Have 4 trades left and 14k so Kreuzer may come in to open up some cash..

 

[Hondo]

Score - 2363

Overall ranking - 2249 up about 350 spots

Heroes - Bock, Goddard, Newman, Mackie, Selwood, Ablett, Kornes, Swan, J Brown, Franklin, Fev, Harvey, Higgins

Villains – Kruezer, Drummond, M Brown

League Status – 3rd (won by 1000 - opponent has given up)

Injury concerns – Cox & Pavlich

Trades - 5 left. Would like to hold Cox but the latest update on him doesn't fill me with confidence. I am scoring well with his donut but sooner or later will have to bite the bullet. Would love to get Hodge in but will need all my spare cash to get to ROK (as is my plan).

Vent: None really. Really happy with where my team is at and my 5 spare trades. I got in Pendles but not at the expense of Daniel Rich so no complaints yet.

Kudos: Silvester and Hurley scoring 97 and 79 on my bench. Joel Selwood = wow. Fev & Buddy for both scoring 2 100s in a row. Harvey for rewarding the faith.

Thoughts – Could have got to close to 2500 if I had 2 ruckman playing. Wish I had held on to Hodge. Well placed in my league and on a good luck run with injuries, apart from Cox.

 

[Jobe Watson]

Score - 2406

Overall ranking - 3700 something (up 1000)

Heroes - Everyone except (below)

Villains – Kreuz, Gilbee, Pendles, Davis, Roughead

League Status – 2nd, 4th, 1st. Now to just try and work my way to 1st in all of them and set myself up for a good finals run.

Injury concerns – Steve Johnson

Trades - None this week. Drummond doesn't seem like he's worth the trade at the moment.

Vent: Very pissed off at how Pendles and Davis were scored. It seemed as though they had way more of an impact on the game than Swan but didn't even notch up 100 between them. Swan definetly didn't deserve 140 in a team that got smashed (considering he only got like 3 touches in the first quarter when the game was close).

Kudos: Good to see Mr. Consistency (Daniel Cross) back in form. And kicking goals of all things!

Nathan Grima has been a star as well, and will hopefully net me close to 300k for finals time upgrades.

Thoughts – Happy with my first 2400 score of the year. Could have gotten up to 2500 if Johnson played. 4 trades left, and all my cash cow players are performing well. Grima is earning some decent coin on my bench and is going to be helpful when I'm able to upgrade Rich to anyone come finals.

 

[sblack]

Score - 2535 (7 week average of 2380)

Overall ranking - 261

Heroes - Most of the team

Villains – Drummond, Gilbee, Aker, Boyd

League Status – Moved into 4th in TS Legends, aka the #1 league. 5th in the #5 league.

Injury concerns – None , I think.

Trades - None this week. Although, a Grimes/Broughton to Hodge trade is tasty.

Vent: Pretty happy with the team atm.

Kudos: Rich- absolute star. Clark, came in for Cox this week. ROK- machine.

Nathan Grima has been a star as well, but on bench this week.

 

[HibSam]

Score - 2,242 (two zero's)

Overall Ranking - 2,365 (down 212)

Villians - Drummond, Hurn and Ballantyne.

Injury concerns - Sandilands and Pavlich.

Trades - 5, will most likely do 2 this week.

[abs_of_STEELE]

Score - 2278 (one zero)

Overall ranking - 16th (8th last week)

Heroes - Rooey, Clark, J.Brown, Goddard, Chappy, Higgins and Buddy

Villains - Didak, Power, Gibbs, Gilbert

League Status - Still on top in all 3

Injury concerns - Sandi

Trades - Won't be trading

Vent: Wish I had ROK. Should've played Ellis on the field but Chad only got 20 less so it doesn't really matter

Kudos: Mitch Clark. Brought him in for Cox and did a great job in outscoring H-Mac.

Thoughts - Disappointed to drop out of the top 10, but my goal is to stay top 100 so I'm still on track for that.

 

[adam1302]

Score - 2693 (4th weekly)

Overall ranking - 328

Heroes - ROK (C), Rich, Selwood, Riewoldt, Brown, Higgins

Villains - Anthony (subbed for Bartel), Drummond (only needed 88 from him for a nice 1k)

League Status - Top 3 in all

Injury concerns - Bartel

Trades - Only 3 left , 323k in the bank might wait a few weeks to trade.

Vent: Wish Drummond scored decent would have got me the weekly prize

Kudos: ROK (185 and 375 as captain ) Jolly got the tone in for Cox

Thoughts - Want to finish the year in the top 100

 

[BlueGibbs2011]

Score - 2321

Overall ranking - 311 but on the slippery slope

Heroes - ROK, Selwood, and Suban

Villains - My bench (Cheney, Zaharakis, Muston, Pyke, Spencer, Adcock, Giasirincusa and W Thompson) of which none are playing

League Status - Who gives a flying!

Injury concerns - Gia - please come back early!! Adcock, ffs, strap on some bandages and get back out there!!

Trades - Only 1 golden ticket trade left with Cox needing a replacement - oh what to do!!

Vent: Mike Pyke, you suck! And to my wife...did you have to burn the chicken kievs again - ffs!

Kudos: Kungfudos to Suban!!

Thoughts - I have caught a serious case of SC fever - even found myself checking the scores on Fanfooty on a saturday night! Forgive me father for i have sinned!

 

[krayfesh]

Score: 2,219

Overall ranking: 76,532

Heroes: Goddard, Rich, Harvey, Urquhart (For being injured so Suban came in) and the rest.

Villains: The Porpoise. Step it up. Petrie. You too.

League Status: 11th in BF Blues Div 2.

Injury concerns: Just Sandilands. Come back soon. We miss you.

Trades: I only have one left, so none.

Vent: Me. I forgot to change my captain from Marc Murphy to Ablett. Didn't matter in the end though.

Kudos: Suban and Harvey. Faith.

Thoughts: I hate this game sometimes.
