Ha as if Holz was dropping Goldy! He likes to stir the pot but he's not going drop Goldy when Team/Coach of the week is on the line

It was obvious it was resting

[Holz]

I know that it won't change much and we will still lose, but I am calling BS on Goldy getting 10% resting bonus vs us

"He is listed as general soreness but rumors are he could be dropped."

That's Holz dropping Goldy for the 49 he put up, and he knew he could drop him because he has Currie, was always going to win that week, and Holz loves showing off/being arrogant because of how good his side is. No one else could ever drop a player like Goldy but he can

He was not rested, he was arrogantly dropped just to show off and make a point and now for that he should not be getting the resting bonus

Like I said, we will still lose anyway, but come on Holz you know you dropped him just to show off that you can, and have since realised you made a mistake by not resting him. Your Dublin ego got the better of you and caused the oversight ;)

Of course Goldy was rested.

It would be stupid just to drop him for no real reason.

The real reason is "because he can"

I like to play the villain abit but even im not arrogant enough to purposely drop a player to just say look how good i am, thats completely disrespectful to Capetown.

you can call me a bragger, super ego or whatever but i wouldn't do something disrespectful. The resting improves my squad this week in what I think is a tougher match up and also increases my chances of getting a team of the week which i care about.

If you think i dropped a player with no reason then thats tanking and is a serious offence.

Rico is correct, team of the week means alot to me. Thats my ego coming into play.

Fair comments Holz - appreciate it

It's not something I am going to push because I believe you, but I think it was worth mentioning

Just remember to actually state that you're resting a player next time :)

Do us a favour though - rest Jelly this week please  ;)

And watch out, we rested TMac last week....  :-X

coming in full strength, New York away from Crooke park is a danger game

Houli can pull 50-150
Gibson is the same

Mundy is good just been injured
Waite could go huge against essendon

we dont talk about lewis jetta

now he is probably getting dropped, not rested.

Dan Currie will take over.

[meow meow]

I totally rested Jeff Garlett last week and I fully expect the 10% bonus even though I simply said he was dropped. It wouldn't make sense to drop him. It was just for the lolz.

Why the flower can't I promote Gibbs to the leadership group? I had the choice out of 2 players last week. Griff was listed as 6 weeks with a back injury but got denied because apparently I don't have anyone worthy of promoting.

Where's my compo?

The points cap is a joke.

Don't trade with Holz.

Gibbs> Rocky

etc...

Of course Goldy was rested.

but we can say of course we meant to name Kelly instead of Newnes twice

[RaisyDaisy]

With injuries and unexpected form/breakouts I think there will be a few teams suggesting we dump the leadership group rule next year

When did this happen KB? I haven't been following these things as intently this year.

I really hope you notice the difference and are just trying to make some point.

not sure which round but jbs names Newnes twice by accident and had to take 1st emergencies score

i guess my point where i'm a bit annoyed is how purps said he believed Holz why didn't he believe jbs and use Kelly's score instead?

because naming Newnes twice is an error in naming your team, plus you could have named other players instead of Kelly. So you tried to name kelly and made a mistake like lots of others have done and something i have done.

I rested Goldy and called it General Soreness instead of Rested. When 99.9% of people know that General Soreness is codename for Rested. I made no mistake in my team selection I did what I wanted to do and rested Goldy in my typcial fashion of annocuning it a line below my team selection.

the week before I actually intended to make Goldy and Selwood CC but due to me being on autopilot I cut and copied my team and forgot to make the change. thats a mistake in team selection and it almost cost me the game.

[Purple 77]

I've been 100% consistent when it comes to team submission errors, where the outcome has always been you have to live with it.

With Holz, it wasn't so much an error as it was poor communication. I mean, this is similar when a coach names a player with the same last name as someone else on their list and I have to guess whom they really mean (although easily deduced). You can see what their trying to do. With Holz, you could see what he was trying to do. When you name a player twice in a team, who knows what you're trying to do?

Even the statement of "Rumours is that he could be dropped" means that at the time of writing, he wasn't actually dropped.

Now I'm just repeating myself, meaning I have nothing more to add to this conversation.

Honestly, its not that bad. You guys have just been super unlucky in some and poor choices in other games

Mundy back playing. It'll only get easier for you

RD7 - Went Houli and Duncan CC (94 and 57) - Lewis 104, Tippett 102, Duncan 94, Mundy 80
RD6 - Went Duncan Capt (98) - Houli 107, Tippett 101, Duncan 98, Mundy 82
RD5 - Went Lewis and Duncan CC (57 and 112) - Duncan 112
RD4 - Went Duncan Capt (75) - Lewis 117
RD3 - Went Lewis Capt (43) - Houli 144, Duncan 126
RD2 - Went Duncan Capt (25) - Houli 127, Lewis 115, Tippett 110 (pretty sure Duncan got cleaned up by Mummy this game)
RD1 - Went Mundy Capt (82) - Duncan 108, Lewis 108, Tippett 82, Mundy 82
