WXV Round 1 - The GF Replay

[Nails]

Swan and Barlow as co captains looking good.

[Purple 77]

FYFE!

Or as I have been yelling in joy:

FOIFE!

I love that guy.

[Purple 77]

Subbed. Are you serious?!

No injury or anything! Just subbed!

Fine. I'll take your 111 points.

[Ringo]

Needed him subbed to give me a chance Purps

[HintT]

Too early to give Langdon the rising star nom? :P

It's a monty!

Great debut

[Holz]

Already hate buddy in my squad.

Good thing I got my man nds. 100 average defender next year.

Walters Mundy disappointing In a big win.

Pearce and Lumumba went too good for my liking  :P

Fyfe 122 from almost 3 quarters... if only he played on! I love you man. Think I will take that captain score, not sure Wells will out score that one.

[Ringo]

A reasonable Start by the Royals 269/3  (Dannyle Pearce 122  :D :D, Lumumba 92 ;D ;D, Chris Mayne 55  >:( >:()

[CrowsFan]

None playing for me tonight on field, but think Hill might find himself as a late inclusion next week after his 95 :)

[Nige]

Captain Beams did the job he was asked to do, very happy!

Buenos Aires is a good example of how Co-Captains can limit/increase scores...

Swan scored 89
Barlow scored 132

So, with Co-Captains, they scored 332.

If Barlow was sole Captain - Buenos Aires would have scored 353.
If Swan was sole Captain - Buenos Aires would have scored 310

My guess is that Swan would have been sole captain, so this looks a decent decision


Also Beijing a good example of the benefit of using the Sub rule...

Two players qualified to be subbed out last night - Neale (14) and Kennedy (23). If Beijing had decided to use the rule, both would have been replaced by emergencies (if available)

Considering Q posted in this thread half an hour before the match started you would have thought he would have enacted that rule or amended the squad so they weren't in it. Gives Wellington a big advantage now!

[Toga]

I was at work last night so wasn't able to get on and get around the sub rule (not that we will have many extra players this week I don't think). :(

[Jroo]

Sandi was very good, I could loophole him as captain.
Sidey was average, while so was Pav, but if kicked straight his score would've been decent.

[Justin Bieber]

Knew I should have used sub rule just incase :(.
