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...

all the popular players scoring well, will 2k be enough this week?

2200+ par probably

Seems to be a large range of scores this week. Seen scores from under 1800 to the high 2200's. Par is definitely not 2200. More like 2050-2100.

13 / 1723
Including VC Neale (298)
13 premos… 13 tons.

I’ve got Ridley, Rowell, Flanders, Jackson and Sexton still to come.
Now strongly considering saying YOLO and Steele > Ryan or Serong to see how close I can get to the Weekly High score.

I have 21 playing this week. If I take out my 3 lowest I'm 1839/14 with Ryan, Serong, Rowell and Flanders to go. Still don't think I have a chance at the weekly given some players will set their teams up specifically to try and win one of the bye rounds. Guess it depends how many trades you have left. Still a long way to go.

 

[Sherman41]

11/1303

Only the bare 18, both my rookies have played.

Revs, 2 goals, 17 touches at 76% for 61. Needed the Tholstrup CD love. Could have easily been an 80.

Mc Muffin not being sub was an amazing outcome, meant I didn’t have to trade in players not on the bubble.

All 9 premos 100+

Need to decide if I want to bring in Worner for Brown today. Could upgrade Steele to Ryan to get rid of a rookie score and boost my overall but I’m just not sure that’s the play.

Your VC has you in front of 99.5% of teams

Your VC has you in front of 99.5% of teams

Yep. Hoping to be in the top few hundred for the round and will be rapped with that. But here's some high scores from players I don't have:
Curnow 118
Dunkley 144
Neale 149
LDU 144

There will be a team out there somewhere that has 3/4 of those. Replace LDU with JHF (my lowest score from my best 14 at the moment) and it's a big difference. Just being realistic. Winning score this week will be over 2400. 2390 won the weekly last week and there weren't as many big scores from popular players as there is this week. It's normally a POD team that wins the weekly. Don't expect this week to be any different.

 

[Maybe Tomorrow]

Aah, OK, so Will Phill towelled him up.
Oh well, shame, but happy for Phillips, deserves to see his efforts rewarded.
Oliver - honestly thought he had been looking better, but there's no silver lining in 32. Insanely poor for an uninjured bloke who's not the topliner he was, but should also not be that diabolical.

I only watched the first half, but he wasn't trying at all. At one point Teakle ran past him and Oliver just let him go, never got out of a trot.

He's gone for me this week, can't have that.

Realistically it's Rowell who's your determination guy.
I'd suggest 95% of high scoring or round set up teams have Flanders Ryan Serong

Agree. Recent form hardly inspiring though, and away from home against a team that will be angry after getting flogged last week.

 

[Lord De Goey]

Don't you love when you have Steele to LDU locked all week but then get scared with the injury concerns. No pressure Ridley....

Has to be dropped if Goodwin has an ounce of integrity.

Gone for me, too.

 

[Kadog]

Only the bare 18 but 10/10 tonnes so far. SBS will surely wreak havoc. Captain Zerrett a big key.

 

[PoopingHindi]

Gone for me, too.

I’d like to see him go back to the VFL and get his nose in the trough. give him the chance to dominate and feel good about himself. watching him run? around at the moment is sad.

 

[Lord De Goey]

Anything to worry about regarding Fisher's scoring? i know he got the ton in the end but it wasnt looking good for awhile (i barely watched the game)

 

[Judd_Magic]

Predicted to score 1923 with Merrett as captain.

Only had the bare 18 playing which included Jye Clark, Kynan Brown and Oliver.

Another sh1t week coming up.

 

[YeoGabbaGabba]

Think he should be right. Uncharacteristically Melbourne managed to kick somewhat straight and had only 4 behinds. Not a lot of kick ins on offer last night

 

[YeoGabbaGabba]

11/1,136

Still tossing up where to throw the C after VC’ing Houston (for some weird reason)

Tried to captain Errol before the bounce got locked out at 4:35

Green finally came good, as mentioned Errol - brilliant and what a trade in, 157, 106, 151 since entering my side.

Brown 21 lowest score that can drop out if Hutchinson outscores (unlikely as will probably be sub)

Yeo, Gov, Ryan, Flanders, Martin, Jackson and Touk to come and a captain to be chosen.

Needing Rowell to not hit his 123 BE to complete my team next week

 

[goondog]

Get around me, lads.

Get around me, lads.

Enjoy while you can

One SBS coming right up

 

[buttox]

In 12 hours we can put our teams back together.
Feck the byes

Too late for me

 

[pincrusher]

This team is currently 1st in the BF group. Projected to score 2359 at the moment. Fielding 19 so one will drop out.

Currently 1503/10. There will be other teams out there similar to this. Anything under 2350 will not go close to the weekly this week.

 

[King Max]

13/1365 (Proj 2238)

20 playing this round, 2 rookie scores still to be knocked out.
Warner the only disappointment.
VC Merrett onto Flanders today.

 

[WaynesWorld19]

Thankyou Mr Oliver & Mr Salem ......you ruined my night, my round, and my season



Mr Gawn .....what was that 2nd half ....absolute crap as my (VC)
Gawny looked very tired in that last qtr .....off the bye, you'd have thought he would have been refreshed

Strange this game ....as bad as you feel after that game, you bounce back quickly with renewed optimism .....that's also strange .....strange indeed
