Arg Mitch Clark what a dud. Should kept Kruezer!
But it's only the 1st round i guess, better lift your game mate!
And what the hell made me pick Gumby, he'll be injured by next week.

 

[footycool]

Your a ****ing idiot you know

Why, i may ask (thinking to himself that he is entitled to an opinion )

 

[DrTomSwift]

The ruck's would've caused a lot of pain with Cox, Clark all Naitanui all having poor scores. But everyone has Warnock on the bench so it's only round 1 pain.

 

[Papa Juggs]

Yes everybody has Warnock on the bench so moved their wasted 4th ruck spot on the field and locked in the 85 points

I'm not happy with Gram. Lost too many contests when the ball went to him.

 

[Wee Jessies]

The fact that I will probs score close to 2000 in round 1 and that will be good enough for about a 50000 ranking, seriously there is going to be some huge scores.

 

[scottyt2]

vossy just mentioned in his press conference that clark had the flu and was in some doubt for the match so expect him to bounce back next week

 

[Tom12]

Par is still 1900 i think

 

[WandallBone]

I dont have either of Ladson or Hunt, but Hunt would surely have more job security than Ladson who might be omitted by round 4...

why would you think that?

 

[WandallBone]

I reckon I'm not going to be far short of 2300 after round 1, and probably won't even head up my own league. its going to be a tough year.

 

[SM]

Pissed I had Kennelly and Eski pass through my defence, but nevertheless my backline is looking my strongest part.

Naita starting with Warnock on the bench is a frustrating one, and Goodes over O'Keefe another, although I'm sure Goodes will end the season on more points.

Martin on the ground was annoying, but my alternatives of Jetta and Trengove weren't much better.

 

[Virgil]

Vent at Worsfold playing Masten in the forward line. I started watching during the third quarter and I saw so little of him that I actually assumed he was off the ground injured. Play him in the middle FFS .

Also vent at Schneider not playing up the ground like he was supposed to, instead staying inside 50 and getting sat on the entire match .

 

[jayfaux]

Goddamnit I'm screwed. I didn't get a chance to change my team before the lockout and I have Gray in my forward line, with Dennis-Lane and Pods on the bench (grrrr). So I know I have to cop a 0 this week which is gonna crash my score.

Because this is my first year of doing DT, and Gray might not play next week, can anyone suggest a way of fixing this? Can I use a trade next week and do a straight swap with Gray for someone else, or should I trade one of the bench forwards and get a decent backup?

Any suggestions would be helpful, my year is derailed already (also, screw you Hille).

 

[360noscope]

Swap Gray while you can before the prices change, possibly to Ziebell or Dangerfield or even to a rookie like Petersen.

 

[jayfaux]

Thanks for the advice I've got Ziebell and Dangerfield in there already so I'll have a look at Peterson or someone equivalent. One week into DT and my team is already in trouble!

 

[360noscope]

For me I am seriously pissed off with all the Eagles' players in my side except for Waters who at least put up an OK score. I had Swift, haven't quite give up on you yet, mate but if you keep scoring sub-40 scores you are out! Masten and Naitanui are in the same boat too.

Yeah i watched the game and it was clear that he wasn't himself. Never got cheap marks behind the ball, never ran to space to link up out of defence. Played forward a little bit in second half and always went to Fev or Brown.

yer thought so. some bloke said during the day that clark was absent from the jumper presentations the night before. no need for panic stations yet

 

[Willo #6]

Swift only with 32!

 

[Rise_up_Stiffy]

Benching Shuey for Bastinac in the last minute before lockout. Stupid!

Mitch Clark....hopefully he returns to his old self within the next few weeks.

Ladson...had him for so long....but downgraded to waters so can't really complain.

Gumby. Spud central.

Hunt. Was mesmorised by his pre season. Hope he picks it up a little (want a 60 ave)

Apart from that can't really complain at all. Having a great start and should crack 2000 easily!

 

[Good Win]

Letting Malceski, Kennelly and Ladson slip through my backline, opting for Hunt and Waters. Although it's still round 1.

Mitch Clark I know you were sick, but could you have at least texted me prior to lockout?

 

[Hawkinspired]

Will be a very high scoring round for some. I have 1600 pts with 5 guns to play and have had some very ordinary scores.

- My rucks collectively gave me 107 pts. (Clarke/Hille)
- LaCras and Hunt were ordinary with 58 & 46 respectively.
- Had Trengove/Kaylor Thomson/Martin starting which Shuey & Barlow on the bench.

A few tweaks in hindsight could have meant an extra 200-300 pts which i'm sure many people wll have. No way i'd be happy with 1900.

What about the team you support ?

 

[JuddyBuddy]

Clark will be back. Was an absolute gun in the second half of last year.

 

[Rise_up_Stiffy]

brb trading gumby to hitchcock

 

[Crooza]

Swapping Hitchcock to Gumbleton last 10 before lockout looks to have paid off for me
