Toast - 2024 Fight MND - Round 16 - Big Freeze 10 Competition

Hi everyone! The annual Big Freeze round is approaching, so it's time for the BF SC competition again. Here's a link to the FightMND website. As the 'Big Freeze at the G' (round 13) always falls during the Bye rounds, we always do the comp in the first round after the byes. In 2024, that's...

Joke or serious?

Before trades & team selection news

 

[gutsroy]

Gawn's glowed right up since the superior R1 experience took his talents to Coogee Beach.
Keep on battling and putting in, kids, no matter how inferior you might be. If Maxy can do it, you can, too

Good to see Brodie has recovered so well from the off season surgery to remove the two knives from between his shoulder blades left behind by big Maxy and Coke Bear Goody.
What a lad

 

[Ingy]

After trades, I have 17 premos and then Clohesy, Sullivan, Wilson and Sexton.

Yeah just bragging

 

[gutsroy]

Just for the record, of course I like Gawn, seems a good fella on the whole, but he and Goodwin sold Grundy a pup and the whole thing was pretty ordinary. We didn't cover ourselves in glory with Grundy and BBQs either,.we're no cleanskins

If there was ever a rook you wouldn't bring in before he was named for his third game, it's Freddy. This kent injures himself opening a can of Pringles

Delisted at end of contract...inj prone more than big preuss..

Pretty full on how basically just being a long tall streak of pelican shit guarantees some blokes a tidy wage for years on end.
Little blokes perform or they’re out on their arses.
Big blokes do **** all, occupy a list spot for 13 years as a back-up

Yeah, Joey was a lights out pick for anyone who got on, just one of those bizarre ones that it turned to shit in the blink of an eye.
He's a goer, supa unlucky

It's Round 12, and there's a drought of Rookies .....we believed "they'll always come" .....maybe, but we need them now, not after the Bye's, when Clubs will start experimenting

Here's praying for some rookies to be named .....will you go early on a rookie this week (Dawson) ? .....damn, all the others seem to be R14 Rooks too

View attachment 2003927

We do hate it, when Clubs don't tell us the truth on injuries .....however, it's equally disturbing to see your (C) doing a fitness test on his calf .....the old man's injury

Solution .....change your (C) from Gawn to Marshall .....I mean Marshall was in superlative form, and would run an injured Gawn off his feet ......what could go wrong ?

Some other famous character said words along similar lines ....
View attachment 2003974

Then this week, we have the illness running thru the ESS camp ......and wet weather across Australia




Doesn't sound good .....can't trust those forecasters, but if correct, the weather could be influential on our (VC) and (C) selections
Or is this simply more Gawn type scaremongering ?

There's a solution to all crises .....rookie drought, player illness, and weather .....oh, & I forgot, no money on the bench to upgrade

View attachment 2003962

On the bright side though ....we'll have a Port Rookie after the R13 bye .....mark his name down, Connor Rozee .....please join me in wishing him well ....I'll take the gamble & leap of faith

If you're trading this week, good luck with your choices ......if you are using a boost .....get stuffed !

The season's at an interesting stage now .....I'm just deciding on my pain levels .....I'm told I'll be a better man for the experience

All hail the king.

 

[Jiska]

I've got 21 at the moment but hoping Harcia gets another go this week.

Before trades I have 25 plus Coffield and Livingstone donuts. Only 3 with Byes. Superior planning all season has lead me here.

I thought I'd use my 10,000th post to rehash the rules of the board to clarify a few things and redo all of the links and helpful sites. If you think something is missing, and needs to be added, please let me know. I've ripped bits and pieces from SJ's rules and from ones I've written for other...

Was gonna go with walking down the driveway to check the letterbox but yeah haha

Or after checking the letter box, he received a paper cut when opening his mail......out for 6 weeks.

Sunday Bloody Sunday could be very problematic for me this week, even with only two games.

Have you looked at your Rd 14.bye situation?
Some will be able to go by then, but you've got a couple.

I'd be more worried about round 14 if i were you lol

Anybody else ready for the "Completed Team" thread on Sunday night?

Clohesy, Rogers and Windsor will be gone by then. Will have 18 exactly. Although I like this approach. Win 3 Bye weeks, lose 1 (playing for leagues strat now).

 

[Kadog]

Even prior to the team selection news - let's call it Carnage round.

Who else is having trouble with fielding 18 players?

With the full knowledge that any players you trade in now, will kick the can down the road and will create trouble for you in the future bye round

This week I’ve got 22/23 available. 17 premos. Important I put in a good score because Rd14 is my killer atm.

 

[Kadog]

If there was ever a rook you wouldn't bring in before he was named for his third game, it's Freddy. This kent injures himself opening a can of Pringles

I can’t recall the last time he finished a game in the seniors without injury.

 

[Judd_Magic]

Some interesting info I have found from someone on X in regards to St Kilda.

Veer Right can you offer your expert opinion mate on what you think about all this.

Does NWM get effected by the Sinclair move to half back or will he still score well anyways if Bonner is now moving to a wing?

Who is your preferred pick now out of NWM and Sinclair? I can't afford to get this one wrong.

Out to rd 17-18- FU Richards ya peanut

If he was a 4 week injury, I would have held .....but 5-6, plus another 2 VFL games on return, makes him a trade
