Unfortunately BS I did do what you suggested. I was watching the game and when Issey scored I thought to myself, I bet BS feels really bad right now!
But it's alright, I'm sure the trade will pay off in the long run, also we still need Amini to play to see whether he does better than Issey ;)

Think most of us did Luigi! Think I only logged 29, about half of last round's effort. Mind you, with 2 1-1 draws and a couple of 1-0 wins, very hard to get big points unless you got dead lucky.

CrowsFan - I am bent over in the stocks, start throwing your rotten fruit at me  :-[ You were dead right, the N-F goal had me feeling ill, and I was positively sick when I saw Carle in the starting line-up for Sydney too! (Although how can they list him with a 2 week injury in Friday's squads, then play him Sunday? That should not be allowed, they just flat out lied to us!!!) Vidosic didn'y play 60min, Nichols only 34min, Ibini should have scored but didn't, Archie hit the post - just a crap week all round.

Apologies, and pray Vidosic & Amini come good this week - might be a week late, but will relieve my guilt  ;) In my defence, have both of them too so shared the pain...

Hamill, Mate(c), McGlinchey and Zwaansjik to come = finally I'm on top of Mel  :-*

BlueStorm

A lot riding on the Heart v CCM game for many!

Ryan, Zwaansjik, Amini & Ibini (c) + Dugandzic & Hamill.
Only have the crazy Dutchman in the other game...

I've been wanting to offload Issy for some weeks now, finally did his week for Carle as my trade, happy so far, Dugandzic (c) not so happy about...

Also noticed Robbie Slater is killing us in ranking, if he wins our Fan Footy leagues I'll spew up!

I will be sorely disappointed if I don't beat all the Fox guys - Brenton Speed is the only exception, he seems to follows trends and stay up to date. The other clowns pick the big names and hope for the best...

Very much agreed!

Mate Dugandzic (c) starting on the pine nearly cost me a new iPad  >:(

Was a shocking double round - no Bosschaart in 2nd game, Dugandzic on the bench, Heart conceding late, no goals to any popular CCM players...

Big gamble this week - do you bring in any Newcastle players for their double? Aside from Brockie, hard to mount a case for any of them. Adelaide also with the double, but a tough away trip of CCM & Newcastle. Van Dijk looks tasty, and my recommendation for this round is Golec (Def) - about $74k, and playing the 90 under Kosmina.

Good Luck!

DONT STRIKE ME DOWN! but..

Jurman to Golec  & Ibini to Van Dijk.

Jurman is wasted on my bench, and am following BS' advice for Golec. Plus it gave me more cash. I used the cash to off-load Ibini. Although he didn't last long in my team as a lost my faith in him. Got the free-scoring + penalty taker Van Dijk from it, who also is playing two matches this week. Plus i have now removed 2 Olyroos.

Next week i may consider Bosschart to Rees.

BlueStorm

You stalking me Luigi???

I also did Ibini to Van Dijk, and Stefanutto to Golec  ;)

With the Olyroos limited to 3 per team, Ryan & Amini are certainties to go, suspect Ibini will be the other...

Important

OK, very quick turnaround between game weeks. We have the Adelaide v Newcastle clash on Wednesday night, then the new round kicks off at 4pm the following day, with the Australia Day clash between Victory (anything but...) and Sydney. Especially with many of us having plans to celebrate the day, don't forget that deadline, and some forward planning could be in order  ;)

Looks like this is the last week we will have Olyroos players, likely they will miss at least 3 game rounds. The squad is to be announced today, so that gives us 2 rounds to start weeding them out. Looks like Heart will lose Balbalj, Dugandzic & Behich. Dugandzic has been a 'must have' this season, so that will hurt, but at least popular defenders Hamill and Good look like they are staying. Very interesting to see who they choose from CCM and GC, will weaken there line-ups considerably.

On top of all that, most of us need cover for Berisha this week, when he serves his one game ban...
