EurAsia v AAP Alliance: The Seventh Wonder of the Worlds

[Purple 77]

EurAsia, Mark 1

*this is what the team looks like based off the highest averages from the past 3 rounds*

D:  Luke Ryan (PNL), Jack Crisp (Moscow), Jake Lloyd (New Delhi), Adam Saad (London)
M: Nat Fyfe (Berlin), Callan Ward (Beijing), Clayton Oliver (Seoul), Adam Treloar (Moscow)
R: Max Gawn (Berlin, BTG)
F: Plugger McDonald (Dublin), Tom Hawkins (Dublin), Sam Menegola (New Delhi), Lance Franklin (Berlin)
U: Brodie Grundy (Beijing, *nice try*), Matthew Kreuzer (Moscow)
E: Stefan Martin (New Delhi), Josh Kelly (Seoul), Jayden Short (Tokyo), Josh Caddy (Beijing)

Have to admit, Walters not being available stings.

Won't be the final team! But I am tempted to gamble on the likes of Saad and Ward, and just the form players in general.

Also, I need to ask all EurAsians here. I clearly can't make this call.

Who captains?
Fyfe, or Gawn?
Until last week, they haven't let me down once this year, it's just I can't pick the right one. However, if you think there is a clear other option, please tell me!

[Torpedo10]

I'd personally avoid the whole Fyfe-Gawn debacle all together with Clarry there. Surely he solves your problem?

Also, if a Jayden Short ever stung...it's now. Stephen Coniglio feels left out too  :-\

[fanTCfool]

There goes the captain  :o

[Torpedo10]

So what's the ruling on this? Technically, the injury wasn't sustained before HT.

There's no ruling because Macrae didn't play tonight.

[Adamant]

I remember when Ada was humble and pleasant

Success is going to his head!  ;D :P

I remember when Ada was literally non existent in WXV first year :P Until trade period popped up hahah

Success just makes it more fun, lets be honest :D

Non-existent? Pretty sure I regularly posted in every weekly thread despite us finishing in the bottom two. In fact, I reckon I posted more in my first season than about 3-4 current coaches combined do now.

The trade period was always going to be my time to shine though.

[Ricochet]

Nice side there Purps. Only one from NDT missing that would put his hand up would be Robbie Gray.


And yep captain Fyfe

[Holz]

From Dublin id obviously play Tmac,

I think Hoff over Hawkins, Hoff has been super solid, really unlikely to post a poor game.

Gray Hoff Buddy Menegola up front
Tmac Ryan Lloyd Crisp down back
Gawn in the ruck of course
Fyfe Oliver Danger Kelly in the mids
Treloar Grundy on utility



Kreuz Ward Saad Hawkins i wouldnt put anywhere near the team.

Kelly is the big one i think he is a lock id trust the Seoul big 3.

I could also argue on Form Goldy deserves a go Kreuz has a 3 round average of 105. Goldy has 112.

Coniglio over Kelly surely?  :P

[Holz]

Coniglio over Kelly surely?  :P

For me no, not even close

89 138 89 then injured is conigs with a season 107

99 97 146 is kelly with a season 110 coming off a 114 year.

to me thats an easy decision do you pick the guy coming off a minor injury with a 105 form or do you pick the healthy, superior player who is averaging 114 form.


Goldy is in better form the Conigs

Goldy is in better form the Conigs

However, Coniglio has averaged something like 127 this year with Kelly in the side, forgetting last week where he was 90 at 3QT and didn't come back on.

pretty long bow there.

1 guy averages more this year, averaged more last year, is in better form and is under no injury cloud.

id pick Goldy over Conigs. Goldy in great form and is playing the Dogs who dont have a great ruck and Mclean Macrae are both either out or not 100%.

Great form? Average, more like it.

As a Supercoach owner of his, I'll need a 150 this week to back up your bold claim.

[GoLions]
