I'm so annoyed with Grundy. I picked him last year, and was inconsistent and whenever Cox played he'd score shower. I figured that would continue this year so I didn't look at him again.

Feels like he's out to get me playing like he is.

Yeah it sux not having Grundy. Didn't pick him last year, but was of the opinion he was about to break out, got put off by the "scores shower with Cox" argument.
49 points in one quarter.
Hey Goldy that's how u play ruck in the modern game u flowering lazy Muppet.

Yeah this is exactly what turned me off him this year, didn't even consider him at all. Even watching him around the ground he was fumbly and awkward. Was so frustrating.

Have to hope he can string some poor games together at some stage and flick Goldstein to him.

Ahhhhhhhhh kudos to anyone who started Lycett in the end. Doing exactly what I thought he would do if fit and has been a great pick. Unfortunately the injury risk was something too big for me to gamble on.

The Slyce was a lock. 92.6 average after round one. Looks like I'll be leaving him at R2 for a while yet.

Got a little worried after an early 30 but repaying me in spades right now!

Half time Spudstein update
5 disposals 26 SC points

Sinclair 15 disposals 75 SC points

Between him and Billings they're ruining my overall rankings every flowering week.

Wish I'd traded them when they had some value. Bit late now...

My plan is to wait until Rd 11 and get Ryder. A down game today, a 68 in Rd 1 too, Sauce next week (guaranteed sub 100), then GC then the bye. Will be cheap and have had his bye come Rd 11 :)

Great call that - should have some form and fitness up by then
