Round 1 progressive scores

[crowls]

911 from 8. Took Pendles as VC and locked it in for that total. Marchbank, Simmo, Doc, SPS, Pendles, WHE, Dahl and Macrae.

Great start Mat.  should have just copied your team.      didnt like WHE,  stuffed up VC and had C on Treloar and VC on Danger.   so have 6/751 with C played.     
Still tossing up on witts/sandi and goldy sandi.    except after dropping goldy I upgrade to steele in fwds and have 220K sitting on the bench.     Dont want to change balance of team so Goldy went back in and 70k in the bank for corrective trades.

484/5 Took Pendles off last min to strengthen Fwds. But still no one really disappointing for me. Treloar was harshly done by from CD.
Treloar, Dahl, Macrae, Nank, Marchbank

There are lot of rookies to come though.

I prefer Goldy/Sandi by a mile. I found enough cash to turn Goldy into Gawn and that is something I'm contemplating. That's pretty much a decision I'll have to make in the next 4 hours.

While Treloar scored under 100, at least you C didn't pump out a 60 for you. It's something that can be made up in future weeks and everyone will have a few poor captains choices through the season.

yes, also have the cash for Gawn.  Just think I can get him cheaper in about 6 weeks.    Miss his VC/C options though.    As for poor captain scores.  last year had gawn sub 50, fyfe sub 50.   so at least it is better than that.

You are probably right that Gawn will drop in price and I could probably use the cash to downgrade to Goldy (only 1k in the bank at the moment) but for some reason my gut is saying Gawn. 

I started the last two seasons with Selwood (69) and Fyfe (61) as my round 1 captain. It put me behind the 8 ball from the start which hurt and I started chasing points in certain cases. It's tempting to change your strategy because of a poor captains score but stick with your guns.

12/1306 (C) JPK

[upthemaidens]

846 from 6   With Pendles Captain loophole.   Started strong, so I'm expecting the rest of the round to go sour..

As expected.. Have Eddy and Smith on field and didn't find out about Swallow until after lock out..

Wait I tell a lie.  Have Eddy on the bench in SC, well that's some relief.  Other comps not so lucky..

Another lie :) Apparently Swallow wasn't locked out, traded out just in time.  Everything is coming up Milhouse..

1238 / 13  Danger as C. Happy so far so touch wood.

Par score?

[Mat0369]

Par score?

Some huge scores from popular players so my guess will be 2200. It's hard to guess without Danger/Fyfe no playing.
