Wow, Roar on a 3 game losing streak - who saw that coming?

Certainly not me, and the standard 4 Roar players have led to ruin over the past fortnight. CCM look the form team now, but would be a brave man to start bringing them in when facing Roar at Suncorp this week. What a mess...

Wait for teams before I asses the carnage, but bringing in Jurman to play 180 minutes, and not score one lousy point was not what I had in mind when making trades last week. Antonis would have returned the same result from no game time!

Kudos to anyone who had the guts to bring in Ifill after his injury ravaged past, he was pure gold for the Phoenix last night. Like to think he won't do the same to Victory on Sunday.

Wait for the teams and then see what can be rescued....

[CrowsFan]

Hmm away for 3 weeks and discover that my team has lost 3 games in a row! :o

Think it might be time to use my wildcard after 3 weeks of inactivity...

[BlueStorm]

Geez, here I was thinking Roar were struggling with Broich's absence, but now we know why - CF went away and the wheels fell off!  ;)

Now you are back, think I'll have to hold all those Roar duds  ;D

[Luigi197]

Broich to miss another week it seems?

[BlueStorm]

Yep, Broich hasn't even made the squad, this must be a very bruised heel!  >:(

Don't think I can cop it anymore, particularly after learning Germano will miss this week (I suspect AFL General Soreness). Too many midfield holes, so think I shall be going;

Broich to Nichols
Germano to Amini

I still like both the players I am trading, but think this is the common sense move for now. Broich can always be brought back in, but Nichols looks most likely to garner points in his absence (and keep both if Jurman continues to suck. You have to see Berisha as a keeper).

While on that, and who I am to argue with Ange, but why the hell was Berisha taking the corners and free kicks??? The guy is known as a predator, a real danger in the box, yet he was the one feeding it in. Not Franjic or Murdocca (when he came on)?

[CrowsFan]

BS I just used my wildcard. What do you think of these transfers?

van den Brink --> Bosschaart
Traore --> Zwaanswijk
Nichols --> Dugandzic
Slory --> Germano
Broich --> Hernandez
Miller --> Nakajima-Farran
Smeltz --> Thompson
Minniecon --> Babalj

Leaving me with a team of
Covic
Franjic - Bosschaart - Zwaanswijk
Dugandzic - Hernandez - Carle - Nakajima-Farran
Thompson - Babalj - Berisha

Thomas - Antonis - Germano - Hamill

[BlueStorm]

I see not a thing wrong with that CF, looks very solid trading. Good luck  ;)

[Luigi197]

Do i need to trade, or follow a similar trade situation that you did BS?

Covic
Franjic, Jurman, Bosschart, Zwaanswijk
Broich, McGlinchey, Sanchez
Simon, Berisha, A Thompson
(Thomas, Germano, Hamill, Watson)

[BlueStorm]

I suspect trades are in order Luigi.

Backline & Forwards are fine, but you are missing Broich, Sanchez & Germano from the mids.
You can't rely on Watson for any points, Hamill is fine to play but don't expect a decent score.

Depending on what coin you have, would be thinking Germano to Amini and then decide whether you bite the bullet with Broich.

[Luigi197]

I think i will bite the bullet.
This season i cannot afford to just wait and see if players improve. I've got to act in the moment!


Broich and Germano out.
Dugandzic and Amini in? or Dugandzic and Nichols in?



And who for captain?

[BlueStorm]

Dugandzic & Nichols should be better option I'd think.

As for Captain, purely guessing this week. Will Berisha start scoring again, can Smeltz turn it on at home, will Dugandzic continue his scoring run? Close your eyes and through a dart Luigi!

[Luigi197]

Will Sanchez play? Looks like he will as he played well on the weekend, and took a rest midweek, and is named.

I think i'm chucking Jurman on the bench

[BlueStorm]

No idea, I've stopped guessing about Sanchez...

[Luigi197]

I've put Sanchez on field.

To be honest i am quite happy with how i am travelling for Fantasy A-League so far. :)

[McRooster]

Kosi will stir the embers and help light the fire in the Reds....

Bye Rini, thanks for SFA.

Coolen out, Kosmina in

Wow, Roar on a 4 game losing streak - who saw that coming?

Should be a blockbuster next time the Roar and the Reds clash  ::)

Mathematically finals are still reachable for the Reds, however......it will take something MASSIVE to change the teams psyche.

To all the Reds supporters booing as our side walks off (yes they have been insipid of late) you are of weaker character than the current performance of the players. A true supporter stands behind their team no matter what, only a barracker tends to jump on/off as they see fit.

C'mon Get behind them, lift them back up, after all optimism is the faith that leads to achievement. Nothing can be done without hope and confidence - Go Reds!

If that doesn't work, we could always clone Damien Mori  :P
