Richmond vs Collingwood Discussion

[Master Q]

Told everyone to hop off Dusty pre-season. #mainstreamdud #getaroundme  :P

I'm sure you were saying that last week, It's one game

I was actually. And, it's two  ;)

lel @ people going Martin over Cloke ::)

Lol @ you carrying on every time something you say turns out to be good for a few weeks. Yes you may be correct that Cloke turns out to be the better pick, I for one hope so. But to get on here every time makes you come of as the biggest nob going around. Surely you learnt from last year when you carried on and on and on about Stanton early in the year, only for him and you to go missing in the second half of the year. With how good your powers of prediction are, i'm surprised you've never one a fantasy comp.

Dusty has one bad game and everyone is shower canning him. Did you all say that about Selwood last week after his 66? or how do you feel about Watson's score last week? Im pretty sure all those who jumped off Clancee Pearce last year kicked themselves after a while. One game doesn't make a season. Save your gloating and self praise for the end of the season.

+1 exactly right, like R1 ablett gets 130+ dont hear from jukes for a week, then he gets tagged by one of the best and hes everywhere, are you forgetting that dusty got 140 last week, martin will average more than cloke and this was one game

When I was trading him in I just new he was going to let me down again. I was going to go for Cloke too (did in Supercoach :p), but I just didn't feel comfortable bringing him in, partly because of his horrible form last year (luckily I didn't have him), and probably mostly due to the fact that I don't really like him as a player, and hence don't really want him in my team (he has probably got to be one of the most inconsistent goal kickers in the league!). Never thought he would come out and smash it like he did today thought!

Still, it was just one game, and one in which most of the Richmond players scored poorly, so perhaps Martin can bounce back and justify his selection? What does everyone think?

2 bad weeks? with scores of 78, 93 and 144. Solid enough scores for me.

78 is bad considering the extreme hype from the media AND FanFooty this pre-season.

DIfference between Martin and Selwood scoring 66, is that you know Selwood will get up the next week, or the week after because we know he's proven. Martin is hardly proven and still gets picked each year by mainstream sheep.

Haha at 78 being considered bad. It's not amazing but hardly a poor score.

I agree that Selwood and the like are proven but the fact is that all players have bad games.

I don't usually consider 78 bad. But for supposedly "premiums" like Martin, I can move the goal posts a little  ;)  :P

Ahhhh so thats how it works for you. If something doesn't fit what you're saying, you just change the rules. Thanks for the education there.

Oh i understand fine, what I don't understand is how adding a :P after several posts trying to back up your point, makes everything ok?

The goal posts part was the joke.

However, like I said I don't usually consider 78 bad. It's "average". But for the hype + the 440k that you pay for him it is a poor performance.

My argument isn't that 78 is a bad score, but that I don't understand why so many people got him in the first place, just like last year (and expect tons everyweek). Onto next week, yeah?

Wasnt Martin priced at 84.9?

Only one Richmond individual got more than 90 today - Cotchin... So, Martins' 58 is "very bad"... but not disgraceful.

Has an average of 93.25 this season...... but priced at 84.9.
Had a last three matches average of 98.3333 so will still rise in price.
Has a two week average of 101... so should have a break even of something like, what, 70? Should still rise in price next week.

If he can average 90, he is certainly a good pickup. Won't ever be my Captain.... but, hey, 93.25/98.3/101 for 4, 3, and 2 week averages is not too bad at all!

A score of 58 geez what a premium.

Against Saints and Bulldogs though... Against Collingwood and Carlton, decent (semi in Carlton's case) he hasn't been able to score well.
