lol almost parallel my story, my Aunt made up trays of shortbread biscuits for me my brother and cousins. All night i was sneaking into the kitchen and grabbing handfuls of them until i got crook and boy was i crook, like a scene from the exorcist it was. Haven't been able to stomach them since. Have a similar tale about Bundaberg Rum later in life, cant stand the smell of it now. :P

higgins could come out and avg 120 this yeat, and i would still be fine with not picking him to start.

Really beginning to think starting team doesn't matter THAT much this year...

If you get a really great unique who kills it, people will just trade him in after 2 rounds, if someone is killing it, trade 'em in. You can fix a shower starting team too easy this year.

or, you can trade in chad cornes after 2 rounds ;)

Tend to agree Nails, you may get a week or two jump on the rest of the field before everyone has jumped on. The key now is how quick you can fill up with prems. Your starting team for rnd 1 is still important but nowhere near as in the past as mistakes are easily fixed with no real damage done apart from your opposition gaining a cash cow etc that week while your fixing a mistake and gaining an advantage on you that way. I feel alot of coaches will opt for cookie cutter sides where they are more assured of points and leave the riskier options untill its glaringly obvious that a certain player is worth jumping on. Those that gamble and take a risk with POD's from rnd 1 that pay off will have a big advantage as ive got a gut feeling that a clever coach who gets a jump on the field is going to be alot harder to run down than in the past.

fractured and dislocated right elbow
broken ankle
groin issues
adductor
OP
thyroiditis
calf injury
hamstring
knee

He gets injured during matches so even with the extra trades he is too risky. I don't want a guy who is made out of tissue and can score 20 at any time.
