....I've done it......I have taken the C off Swan & chuck her on Mitchell.

I don't think this will back fire. Mitchy should rip a 120+....It's just how Swan will go. New ground & has never played GC. Damn, this could really hurt.  8)
Shouldn't cost you more than 20 points and Swan has a better chance of flopping than Mitchell anyways. I reckon it should be a fairly safe move. I'll stay with Swan because it would be wrong of me to go against my own top five and I'm totally greedy. But Mitchell is a great option. This should be a midfield frenzy!

Well, I'm done for now. Time to lock this thread.

Thought I'd add a summary to this thread. At the end of each round, I will summarise my predictions and compare them to my actual scores, starting with my top 3/5. Then, I will lock the thread again to avoid any unwarranted abuse from frustrated and immature coaches. Hope you all enjoy the thread ;D

The format will be: Player / Prediction / Actual score / Quick thought if any

Top 5
1. Daisy / 140+ / 50 / Sadly, injured after a 37 point first quarter

2. Swan / 135 / 118 / Slow third quarter cost him

3. Pendlebury / 120 / 124

4. Mitchell / 120 / 113

5. Ablett / 120 / 97 / Surprisingly well contained by a team that focuses solely on their own structure

The rest
Boyd / 95 / 117 / 26 kicks from 29 disposals = good DT score

Murphy / 100 / 118 / Enjoyed Carlton's second half dominance and made up for a 29 pt first half

Thompson / 100 / 121 / Only Crow doing anything. Amazing score considering the game

Franklin / 80 / 127 / Beat Frawley convincingly and had much more midfield time than could've been predicted

Montagna / 105 / 118 / Was only on 63 at 3 quarter time...

Cox / 115 / 137 / Good game all around but particularly enjoyed the second half when Freo was down to one ruck

Chapman / 125 / 93 / Was on 70 at half time but could keep going when Richmond was competitive in the second half

Selwood / 120 / 108

Cloke / 90 / 119 / Bock played a shocker giving away stupid frees and easy marks. Made Cloke's day a lot easier

Rockliff / 110 / 110 / Had to get one exactly right ;D

Petrie / 130 / 127
