Player choices killing you this week?

Toy over Lower
Adcock over Pendles (captain)
Cost me 89 points!
Considering I'm 1903 with Selwood and Buddy to go, that may well cost me 2200... :(

i would take that now, wrong choices have put me 220 points down this week im 1726 with bartel, stevie j and franklin to play so im expecting 1950-2000. I have petrie, boyd and adcock and i still post a pitiful score. i would be much happier with 1940 with 3 premiums left to play.

i took the safe bet on joey over pendles or boyd as c 90 points
i played ottens and duigan over lower and stanley another 50 odd

i couldnt avoid the richardson 14 though

this would of put me on 2220 with buddy to come ahhh well i am more then happy with 2095 with budy to come

1811 with bartel, franklin and enright to come.

90 pts left ont he bench

And why can't anyone do maths... choosing Adcock over Pendles for captain is NOT 90 points, its 45. Think about it, do the maths.

LaHug · April 26, 2011, 01:45:48 PM

47 points... and I did the maths right.
Also, had Otten over Stanley. In total, down 111 points.

yeah, I could have gotten 130 points playing different players, which is a bummer.

Some bad and some good:

The bad

Stanley (75) vs Toy (37), Lower (79) v Otten 55) or Duigan (53) and Swallow(81)/Libba(82) v Foley (108).

The good
The Broughton --> Adcock trade (119 vs 0).

Not using Petrie as backup ruck and having Smith there and Petrie in the forwards.

It gave me Smith's score over a doughnut in the forwards with Krak being dropped. Although it wasn't much consolation having Richardson who scored 14.

I know this is DT but i left Darling on the field (not a huge mistake), but made richardson emg instead of matera for some stupid reason (FAIL 1)

took goddard's 120 as vc, so put cox on the ground and made smith emg

this left me with no emg in backline and watched on as broughton pulled out and lower rips out 100+. (FAIL 2)

cost me more than 200 points >:( >:( >:( >:(

I HATE BYES

Nails · April 26, 2011, 06:23:30 PM

If I made the right player choices I would have ended up on 2,086, instead I ended on 1,935...

And if I had have gone Pendles over Swan for capt as well 2,148...

but no, 1,935... fmdt.

LaHug · April 26, 2011, 06:26:19 PM

2128 could have been 2229 (or something like that).
Can't complain, but still somewhat disappointing.

Windigo · April 26, 2011, 06:30:55 PM

When do you think lockout will be lifted.

Only one game today, so my bet is soonish.....
