Although great efforts by our Co-Captains, Toronto's backline have been super this week and they have the points on the board. Would take a mammoth effort for us to overtake them at this rate but we're on track to put up a respectable score, just not enough players taking that step further this week :(.

Priddis and Jones had me a little nervous HP!

Game still anyones for the taking, but I'm quite happy with the way things are travelling at Toronto, hopefully on track for a 150+ score, returning to around the mark the team's capable of.

Like you said HP, backline has been phenomenal this week, would have been even better if I had rewarded Rhyce Shaw's good game last week with a spot in defence, but after 117 things are certainly looking likely for him to take a spot back there next week.

Henderson has been quite disappointing, early stages but I have really lost out on that trade with Purps so far  :-[

In other good news, McLean having a big return game is very promising for the midfield stocks, and hopefully he's learnt his lesson from Mick and should stay in the Carlton side as he deserves. Swallow playing today in the VFL, things are finally looking up for Toronto!

Will be interesting to see who wins the battle between my 2 rucks today when they go head to head...

Must be the week for it with 2 of my 3 rucks going head to head as well this week.

Warnock vs. Cox this week. Poor Hale no friendly opponent for him :(

[ossie85]

Just a note for Dublin - since you have no interchange or emergency forward available, Grigg isn't subbed out.

[Nige]

May have not realised Tory Dickson was named this week...  :-[

[Nails]

Upgraded Astbury as would have had to use attack or have a standard lineup with no defence emergency.

Didn't feel right starting Wood. going to kill me with Wood scoring well and Astbury yet to get a touch 8 minutes to go 1st quarter ::)

[Nails]

Deep down knew I should have played Wood and Astbury emergency. Though was Angry as he only scored 50 odd last week.

Wood scored 97 2 weeks ago when not named, named him last week 50 odd, pissed off at him and drop him and 95+ or so.

[kilbluff1985]

Dahlhaus keeps us in it by doubling his SC in the last quarter he was on like 60 finished with 120+
