WXV Round 15 - Do or die for Magpies, Brewers, Revolution and Destroyers

[Nige]

Beams not captain - 138
Beams captain - 88 (iirc)

I see how it is.  :(

to be fair, the first one was his first game back in almost a year. Just auto captain him from now on.

Yeah, that's true. It was more or less to point out my poor choices of captain and team selection all year. Beamer's definitely getting the C for the rest of the season. Gonna need it next week too, especially if he can outscore Pendles!  ;D

[Nige]

Armitage now most likely gone for the night... #CairoWoes

Still a pretty decent output.

NDS racking it up, so is Hanley in the other game.  ;D

[Purple 77]

I love you Steven. Honestly, I do.

already 11 disposals and 2 goals in crucial last quarter!

You were right ossie!

[Nige]

Armo is coming back on!  ;D

If only he didn't have 4 FA.  :(

[Purple 77]

OMG!

I didn't expect 157 (pre-scaled)!

He got 85 SC points in last quarter!

I freaking love you Steven!

You almost make up for all 5 of my melbourne spuds!

[Nige]

NDS 151 PRE-SCALING WOOOO!  8) 8) 8)

Armo only 75.  :(

[Toga]

KMitch 75 as sub!!! :o

Pity he's emergency... Thought Mitchell would definitely be sub, and Neale might be, so went with Lachie on field... Turns out I was right, but never thought Mitchy boy would do that!

[Purple 77]

If I was around, I would have gladly accepted him. Imagining having him over Rowe last night.  :(

Hey Nige, I just remembered who it was for, I was looking for a 1:1 swap with Jamie Cripps ::)

Well, I expected Cripps to be a forward and to do better, but I was wrong on both those accounts

I actually like Cripps, always have been a fan, but I think I would have preferred Hendo.  ;)

[Maca24]

Mexico City Suns:

Def: B.Goddard (C, 138), C.Enright, J.Adcock (81), B.Lake (64).
Mids: S.Sidebottom (92), S.Thompson, B.Ebert (90), L.Hodge (110).
Rucks: I.Maric.
Frwds: J.Bartel, N.Riewoldt (134), J.Lewis (118), S.Crameri (78).
Bench: B.Vince, A.Sandilands.
Emg: M.Lecras, N.Hrovat (39), M.Baguley (80).

Shocking captain choice in Goddard!
roo, Lewis and Hodge impressive.
I'd be stoked if I picked a decent captain. Really need a consistent star in the off season.

[AFEV]

I C Dempsey (51)
II D Heppell (81)
III T McKenzie (110)

951/10

[Jukes]

Moscow Spetsnaz
D: H. Shaw (vc) 87, R. Murphy 79, J. Frawley 84, D. Fletcher 65
M: R. Griffen (c) 140x2, N. Fyfe, A. Treloar 66, P. Seedsman 86
R: N. Naitanui
F: D. Martin, A. Monfries 79, M. Walters, J. Darling
U: C. Ward 89, L. Adams 91

Only the one ton so far, but that was Captain Fantastic RG16 :D generally good scores all round, only disappointing score is Treloar. Currently sit at 1006 from 10+1.

Obvs

[Purple 77]

Think my feelings of Jack Steven have already been mentioned, but just to make sure...

I freaking love you!

4 out of my 5 melbourne players were terrible, well done Trenners!

Thanks the Steven, I am in a great position! But I have doubts over the quality of my remaining players to finish it off.

Everitt scares me!

[ossie85]

Cape Town Cobras   672   7 (Cotchin C, Kennedy, Hawkins, O'Keefe, Bird, Chaplin, Spurr)
Moscow Spetsnaz   1006   10 (Naitanui, Fyfe, Martin, Darling, Walters)
Prediction: I think the Spetsnaz are in trouble if Cotchin goes well, will back the Cobras

Berlin Brewers   996   10 (Edwards, Jackson, Stokes, Crouch, Everitt)
Toronto Wolves   1060   13 (Riewoldt, M Johnson)
Prediction: If the Brewers don't win from here, they don't deserve the finals, as Toronto's top 4 hopes slip away

London Royals   670   8 (McVeigh, Pearce, Hannebery, Mayne, Mackie, Hill, Laird)
Wellington Warriors   951   12 (Foley, Hannath, Mzungu)
Prediction: Wellington a sneaky chance! But McVeigh and Hannebery should see London home

Seoul Magpies   538   7 (Deledio, Kennedy, Kelly, Duffield, Corey, Bolton, Hunt, Ellis)
Buenos Aires Armadillos   880   9 (Cox, Barlow, Dea, Lyons, Dalziell)
Prediction: Really 11 plaers, not 9, for Buenos Aires but they are still a chance of winning. Can Seoul recover? I'll back Buenos Aires

Sao Paulo Pumas   894   8 (Sloane, Jacobs, Masten, Houli, Porplyzia, Hill, Duncan)
New Delhi Tigers   842   8 (Ibbotson, Wellingham, Rutten, White, Podsiadly, Murdoch, Vlastuin)
Prediction: Will back the Pumas, but the Tigers still a chance! Would've been a lot more interesting if Ablett hadn't gone nuts.

Cairo Sands   1060   10 (Mumford, Pearce, Malceski, Douglas, Hutchings)
Pacific Islanders   1128   12 (de Boer, Mitchell, Brown)
Prediction: Pacific could pull off a miracle, but Cairo have the slight edge

Beijing Thunder   617   9 (Caddy, Rosa, Taylor C, Varcoe, Neale, Hunt)
Mexico City Suns   905   9 (Maric, Sandilands, Bartel, Thompson, Enright, Vince)
Prediction: Suns have too much quality

Tokyo Samurai   285   4 (Shuey, Jack C, McGlynn, West, Richards, Suban, Parker, Motlop, Henderson, Smith, Tippett)
New York Revolution   951   10 (Pyke, Gaff, Smith, Jenkins, Morton)
Prediction: New York with the points on the board.... but if Jack goes nuts..

Dublin Destroyers   953   11 (Selwood C, Rance, Mundy, Clarke)
PNL Reindeers   1268   13 (Priddis, Lynch)
Prediction: Surely PNL won't lose another close one? Dublin's season could finish today...
