Hey all,
Another week and another set of major tough choices... I'm wondering how ppl are going this week selecting their teams..!?
Top score from last week was 1560.. which comes down to make your Capt/V.Capt extremely well...!!
First run at the team...
B: Gibbs, Guthrie, Pittard
M: Murphy, Parker, Selwood, SJ
R: Blicavs
F: Bird, Betts, Rohan
Picking seem so minimal it kinda hurts to pick some players.. lol
Similar looking team to my first attempt this week, Not sure if I keep faith on Rohan or not, difficult with salary cap though...
I have:
Gibbs, Pittard, (one of Yarran, Guthrie, Jonas - at this point Yarran)
Jack, Jelwood, Murphy, Robinson
Blitz
Waite, Bird, Rohan
Only player I've kept from last week is Jelwood.
Gibbs, Duigan (surely they can't drop him after the game he just had?!), Malceski
K-Jack, Duncan, Jelwood, Bell
Blitz
Stokes, Young, White.
My theory last week was to spend as little as possible on defence and it worked!!
Pretty much changed my whole team this week - only kept Bird and JPK (gave Waite the flick)
DEF - Duigan, Guthrie, Pittard
MID - Jack, JPK, Murphy, Parker
RUC - Lobbe
FWD - Bartel, Bird, Young
Am considering changing Duigan but at that price I am unsure who for?? This was also my thinking behind getting rid of Waite but I might just change back to him! Lobbe has to be a lock coming up against an undermanned Geelong ruck stock.
???
Strange team for strange times, LOL
Logan Duigan Guthrie
Jelwood Duncan Bird Murphy
Sandilands
Stevie J Bird Betts
This team could either sweep the pool or fail to score, such is this round.
Love and laughter to all. :)
Sabretooth...
You have Sandi in the ruck...!?!? confused...!?!?

Not only do you have Sandi but you have Bird twice??
:o
Did say it was a strange team for strange times, wow I really stuffed that one up. Thanks guys, will do it again. The team, not the stuff up. Must have been over tired picking players with the bye, plus a brace of birds. ::)
???
Bit of a re- take
T Logan N Duigan C Guthrie
J Selwood (c) M Murphy B Ebert P Chapman
S Mumford
S Johnson (VC) J Schulz G Rohan
Lost the brace of game birds but still hopefully stuck with an about to
turn it around Rohan. Hope this is a bit more up date. Thanks guys, cheers to
both for the wake up call. ;)

Pretty much the same as mine except swap Stevie for Bartel and Mumford for Lobbe (Geelong's ruck stocks aren't great and you save money). Defence is solid and if you change from Mumford to Lobbe you can use the extra money to get a better midfielder or upgrade Rohan to Young from Port (he won't score massive but will give you a solid 60-70, which is probably better than Rohan, who might not play this week).
Good luck :)
Here's my first run for week 2
Mackie, Jonas, Duigan
Selwood (C), Boak (VC), Murphy, Duncan
Lobbe
Chapman, Bird, Young
Thinking there will be a few revisions before a ball is bounced though ;)

I like it! My only consideration is what to do with Bird?? Have been hearing all week that he
may tag one of Gibbs or Murphy and if so I am not sure how much of the ball he will get? Thoughts? Otherwise a good team!! :)

Yeah not convinced with Bird but he was my final selection and was highest i could under the cap. Will explore more once teams are announced.
If anyone was planning on playing Rooster, they can probably forget about it, looks like he's gonna miss.

The big one is whether Duigan keeps his spot. Will be the most picked this week if he does.
If Duigan doesn't keep his spot, that is the biggest load of shower ever.
I based my team around Duigan keeping his spot. :P

Have settled on this team for the time being:

Jack as Captain and tossing between Bartel and Murphy for vice. (Will probably change this half a dozen times tomorrow)
Duigan, Rivers, Jonas
Murphy, Ebert, Cornes, Corey
Lobbe
Bartel, Robbo, Bird
Like this balanced team but not sure on C/VC?
Btw leaves $0 in the bank!

Probably, Bartel C and Murphy VC. I like stokes ahead of bartel
Looking at Gibbs/Murphy for VC & Bartel for C.
@Ringo - Menzell would be big risk of vest?
This week I think I'm settling for:
Gibbs, Duigan, Logan
Jelwood, Jack, Murphy, Cassissi
Lobbe
Robinson, Bird, Young
C/VC Jelwood and Jack, haven't decided which order. Probably Jelwood C.
Thoughts?

Is anyone considering Shane Biggs? He is only $96,400 and my theory is that he will score as many points as Duigan does (assuming Biggs isn't the sub, I think Cunningham will be)! In his only game he scored 62 against Hawthorn and had 18 possies but did go missing in the second half. But I don't believe Duigan will perform the way he did last week against the Swans but I could be wrong!
The only problem is, is that I really like your midfield! But maybe for Cassisi? Allowing you to upgrade Robinson or Bird to Bartel (I think ... I haven't done the math but it sounds about right)
Good luck :)
I have 10/11 players playing tonight !

It's not a bad thought about Biggs v Duigan. I agree it would be unlikely for Duigan to repeat his heroics from last week and you would generally expect around 60-70 from him. The extra coin could come in handy.
I think you've talked me into it ;)
Anyone have thoughts on this?

I think Chapman will play a full game this week and Gray is due for a good one. I doubt Logan will score as well as he did last week and Guthrie might play on Wingard. No-one is expecting much from their defenders though ;)

Swap Biggs with Cunnigham is he is the sub :)

Interesting proposition, and damn if it doesn't sound very good! Cassisi to Biggs would allow Robbo to Stevie J, though I'm not sure about the match ups, who would do better out of Bird or Robbo... Bird and Stevie J vs Robbo and Bartel, I think I would lean towards Robbo and Bartel...
:)
Thanks for the suggestion J10, just checked Sydney's weather forcast and it's rain for Fri /Sat
So Tippett to Stokes it is. Cheers. ;)

Defence is solid.
Mid is good.
Best ruckmen imo.
Maybe Motlop - Chappy if he isn't sub.
Selwood C Jack VC
Malceski, Guthrie, Duigan
Jack, O'Keefe, Boak, Biggs
Lobbe
SJ, Chapman, Young
Or
Malceski, Guthrie, Duigan
Jack, Selwood, O'Keefe, Biggs
Lobbe
Bartel Chapman, Young
Thoughts? Just made it then, not so sure of it. Thinking team 1 atm
I would seriously consider dropping Jack Wato. Had him in my team initially and he has only one score over 100 v carlton in 8 outings and that was 113. Just saying, If You can replace Jack with Selwood in Team 1 then way to go.
VC and C ?
Murphy Corey Duncan Chappy Lobbe Stokes.
Thinking Stokes C and Murphy VC
subs for tongiht
AFL @AFL 5m
Geelong v Port Adelaide - No changes. Subs: Taylor Hunt (@GeelongCats) and Aaron Young (@PAFC)

I assume many will do Young - Menzel
Who will score more.
Jonas, Guthrie, Rivers, Trengove or Colq

If Menzel is sub I have a backup trade
Gibbs or Harry Taylor
Taylor Stokes C Duncan :'(
Good start for me:
Chappy- 132
Selwood- 384 (3x 128)
Stokes - 118
Motlop - 117
Bartel - 113
Lobbe - 99
Duncan - 77
Mackie - 60
Guthrie - 57
Lets hope my last few players including the big VC on Murph come home strong.
Watching the game I thought Mackie would be posting a decent score :( Hawkins even scored more than him :o
Was out the whole day and didn't know Young was the sub. :( Balls.
390 from Blitz, Stokes, Jelwood, Duncan and Young. :(

895/7 :(
O'Keefe VC, Malceski, Duigan and Biggs to go ugh
Biggs or cunningham
have gone Cunningham Jack with not a lot of confidence - Suspect one of Biggs or Cunningham will be subbed out.
1005 from 7 last night, but Young being sub and now Menzel out stuffs my strategy
Yeah, I went Bell -> Biggs.
Menzel out to Walker
also to do Judd to Cunningham
I went Murphy to Biggs, Menzel to Tippett :'(
1189 for Round 2. Another uninspring effort on my behalf.
