Game Day 2023 Round 8 Discussion - where are our Rookies ?

[gutsroy]

I froth grammar as much as anybody, but...

 

[Duckworthy]

Daicos will play, Pies had a 5 day break, probably just having a light training week.

What is considered a break?
Bombers played ANZAC Tuesday and then the Sunday. Everyone saying 5 day break.
Wednesday to Saturday is 4 days
Am I doing the math wrong?

Sunday counts too lol

Just count the nights

So you work Monday to Friday. Do you get a 2 day break or a 3 day break?

Fair call, maybe don't count the nights then haha

On your point, I finish work at 5:30pm on Friday, and I start work at 8:30am on Monday, so that's a 2 day break, because Friday day is lost at work

Regarding the match, I guess you're right, because the matches start at roughly the same time, so it is a 4 day break

4 days/5 nights

I suppose we just use day/night interchangeably. Like when people go on holidays, day and night gets used interchangeably, but it makes a difference, if you arrive at your destination late at night

Sorry Scoops. Using incorrect grammar is very noticeable.

not many people seem to type with all lowercase letters in one big paragraph like sentence and finish every line off with dot dot dot...

Brisbane/Carlton on Friday night is about as ideal as it gets for me as far as loops go.

Wilmot and Cincotta both emgs. Can take Wilmot or Mitchell, and Cincotta or Greene.

And if Cincotta is shit, I can also loop JVR with Greene.

Only 3 green dot bench players and they're all useful.

I really need Noah Long back and for Johnson to be best 22 when he's back or I'm ****ed for the byes though.

Yes. A day is 24 hours.

2:30pm Tues -> Wed (1 day)
Wed -> Thur (1 day)
Thur -> Fri (1 day)
Fri -> Sat (1 day)
Sat -> Sun 1:10pm (1 day)

I suppose technically it’s 1 hour and 20 minutes short of 5 x 24 hours.

 

[Falchoon]

I think if you showed me the 1st place team, and the 25k ranked team side-by-side, I would genuinely think 25k is better.

Honestly the team doesn't look great

It's not great, yet they were 200 points clear of everyone up to last week.

 

[Duckworthy]

Yes. A day is 24 hours.

2:30pm Tues -> Wed (1 day)
Wed -> Thur (1 day)
Thur -> Fri (1 day)
Fri -> Sat (1 day)

Yeah, it's a technicality.
I had two days off last week. Saturday and Sunday.
The Anzac Day teams had four days off. Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday.
But let's all call it a five day break
Anywho.....let's move on
I'm just trying to deflect attention away from how bad my SC team is

 

[JuddgementDay]

Wilmot/McKenna and Cincotta @ D7/M9 is the go this week. Mitchell helps a lot with DPP loops.

If anyone doesn't know how to utilise a DPP loop after using all their trades this week (changing players positions around in your team without using a trade), please shout out!

Great - Might take you up on that offer!

Well, technically you had 2 and 2/3 days off last weekend. 5pm Fri until 9am Monday (or whatever hours you start and finish). I suppose we generally consider midnight to midnight a day.

 

[kyri]

Disclaimer. I am not Jesus. One traded player mustn't have played yet. However I do understand that it can get all confusing and I am happy to help where I can.

Day doesn't start until you wake up in my opinion.

Whether thats 5am or 3pm. A day off begins with a sleep in.

Well, based on that, for some people a day lasts 72 hours

Nice work Scoops .

@ Hawks posters (or anyone else with an idea)

Who will Conor Nash go to this week?

Logic would tell me if he was going to go to anyone, it would be Serong. He has been their most influential and damaging player to this point IMO.

after Hodor took a gigantic sized turd on your teams a few weeks back, then went on to punch out 130’s at will?!?!




Now, where the **** is the trades thread!?

 

[Hack_Watts]

The Treacy selection makes me wonder if he's Ruck cover. I suspect Sturt will be late in for Darcy. This would be delicious.
