4 rookies would have been horrible. redden + stephensen havent been getting games, and longers only played 2.

hmac/ maric + 3 rooks however...
im ranked 20 from 4rr so if thats horrible i would hate to see sh@thouse.

and as crabapples has eluded there is a bit more to it than luck, although i will admit 40% of the game is luck with injurys.

There are reasons i went 4rr as explained back in this threat before the season started and there are reasons why i would not have picked Cox and Sandi, and its exactly the reasons they aren't going as well as many thought.

Its easy to say its all luck but is it completely luck that i picked Duffman, Malceski, Masten, Hayes, Sidebottom, Robinson all from the start! there are many reasons why i picked them with the main one being solid hard research.

2 yrs ago i was ranked 11th in rd4 before injurys  took hold which you cannot see, again this was from solid hard research.

end of that yr i put the same thinking into the brownlow and turned $300 into $8700, a week later picked a quaddie and a big6 and had $50 on Pendles and Hayes in both GF for the Norm Smith.

My point is luck has a very small part to do with it over solid research.
Do you still have 4 rr though Hippo?? I remember seeing your team with Giles, Redden, Big O and Gorringe was that right??
Tabs i had McCauley instead off Gorringe. Traded Mc to Hmac.... now have to sweat on that outcome
Are yeh thats right, it would have helped if i had read earlier. HMac will be fine but may miss a week and not fly to Adelaide this weekend

Oooh I'm 595 overall and have gone up 2200 spots in the last 2 weeks. Might well be closing in on you. My team is

Deledio, Goddard, M.Johnson, Waters, Broughton, H.Shaw, Lake (Darley, Spurr  >:()
Ablett, Pendlebury, Jelwood, Nick Dal Santo, Priddis, Rockliff (Mcdonald, Gibson)
Nic Nat, Goldstein (Big O, Redden)
Sidebottom, Danderfield, Franklin, Beams, Rioli, Martin  >:(, Zorko (Adams, Crozier)

100k in the kitty

6 Trades Left looking to get rid of One of Martin or Adams to Goodes in a couple of weeks and also maybe Lake or Goldstein (If Hmac is back) Around finals time.

Good Luck for the rest of the year mate.

Goldie to Mummy at the prime time could be genius for a few $$ and future points.

It could work but i wouldn't try it. You would have to have them all playing and averaging 80 wich is hard to maintain also you will have to uprgrade quickly

this was from last year, when at this point in the season we all though gile, stephensen, redden, rowe would be playing a lot of games and scoring decently.

this year... I doubt you could pull it off.
