Game Day 2024 Round 18 Discussion - Anyone for some CARNAGE?

[swindle]

How in the actual **** is a 17 touch, 4 goal game worth 154 points?

I mean, I’m ecstatic about it as an owner, but I just can’t see it.

High DE%?

He had 10 Score involvements and 2 Intercepts, I know FWD half intercepts seem to get a lot of points & any score assist also so probably that. Who knows really lol.

The Scythe trade-out tax

The Scythe trade-out tax

I knew holding Punchy would pay dividends at some point. Never doubted him. Not once

 

[Makeshift Park]

All out for 2227.

I’m adopting an RSPCA dog this week.

Those are two completely unrelated sentences, honest.

Pics when it happens or it didn’t happen

The Scythe trade-out tax

+1 and the other Green too - unnecessary burning of two trades during the last bye to afford Gawn & someone else

And this has made me too cautious to get rid of Rowell - triple whammies!

 

[Veer Right]

Gawn

"It's going well. It's a hairline fracture in the ankle but you could also just say it's a badly rolled ankle,"

"To have one week out with a rolled ankle, in my head, that's a lot. I've done a fair bit to do it. The doctor originally said two to three (weeks), so if it's that then that's also a win, let's just make sure it's not four.

"It's day to day. I'll run today and see how I go and pull up tomorrow, maybe run again Wednesday."

------------------------

My interpretation

Could be back anytime from this week till round 21.

He could play this week but does not want to aggravate it. Will weigh it up.

Big men and foot injuries, don't usually go well.

 

[ubeaut]

2362 captain Butters
Just inside top 10 k
Hopefully improve that with 4 trades left

 

[Judd_Magic]

Wasn't even gonna bother doing this but here I am.

Was projected to score like 2,430 odd but my team sh1t the bed. No Gawn, Heeney and Fisher didn't help.

Krueger and Rowell both sh1t trucks on ground and nearly everyone else underperformed.

Don't get how people still scored well this week despite all the carnage.

All you kents with scores of 2,300 + get the f*ck out!

I'm right behind you JM.... let's see the value in having 5 trades remaining...

 

[WaynesWorld19]

Just a quick note .....no I haven't disappeared in embarrassment of my side ......no I haven't given up

My side looks great on paper ......just too long to get there, and as usual my team value is in the bottom 10% .....meaning I'm paying too much for players, missing their scoring spike ...and then when I do get them, their scoring dries up, and value drops

Case in point ....Luke Ryan

Truth is I've been bedridden with this dreadful Flu going around .....5 days now, and still a ways to go
No energy to do much at all

I know this is a campaignery thing to want, but I’m kinda hoping Coffield is rested this week. He’s far more useful as a loop for me.

You mean the Round 19 thread before it gets locked?
