Game Day 2024 Round 19 Discussion

[Nelso]

3/293

Some weird swings with the scoring in the last qtr of last night's game.

Somewhat tempted to take the VC score of Merrett. Have an inkling that the popular captain choices will struggle this round.

I have Neale but I reckon Jordon will go to him.

WIll look at the weather conditions later in the day to see what it is like down at the Cattery and might choose Bont as captain.

 

[iDon]

I have Tom Green, Steele, Rozee and Walsh.

Need to bench one and not E them.

Probably Steele I guess but he does have a weak Eagles side.

Looking at stats, I may bench Walsh.

Eagles give up big points to Steele type players, same with Tigs for Rozee and GCS can be 50/50 for Green. Factor in that Shiel may go to Walsh?

 

[Veer Right]

90 minimum from Rowell today or will gamble on Humphries

 

[MrChristo]

Stringer is diva central
Zero defensive intent unless he can collar a bloke without taking more than 1.5 steps, and he gives blokes a rinse a fair bit.

Surely the only person in the entire football world who doesn't realise this is Brian Taylor.
Then again he barely knows the names of any interstate player out there.
(Genuinely, the other commentator had to take over at one point last night because he didn't know half the Adelaide squad. )

Freezing in Geelong. High winds and probably rain.
Miserable day

 

[Veer Right]

Star Bomber Jye Caldwell will be available for next week's critical clash with St Kilda after passing his HIA in Friday night's thriller.

Brad Scott below

"The rules are there for a reason and for a good reason, so he had to have a head injury assessment (HIA) which takes time."

"The fact that he passed that and was fine is sort of cold comfort because we just couldn't wait unfortunately."

"Obviously we didn't want to sub him off but we felt like we had no choice because just the stage of the game."

"We might've got him back for the last five minutes, perhaps, but we just made that call... subbed him off to get the fresh player in."

SuperCoach is becoming a lot more luck based due to 1. The concussion rule and whether or not your lucky to avoid it or not with players you have selected.

2. The stupid bloody sub rule, it needs to go asap. Just make it 5 on the bench

3. Tackle suspensions, one week its players getting 3 weeks and other weeks its players getting off on the same thing. The rule interpretation week to week is so inconsistent.

Love the game but if your lucky/unlucky with these things it’s a huge swing in where you sit

It's been luck for a long time IMO.


Agreed sub rule can get in the bin.

Miserable day

I'm going out to get myself water proof hiking pants .
Plus been sick last 3 days.

Me tonight.

No eye deer

Did you wake up six feet in sallydale.
Or knee deep in a rosemary bush.
Face full of bubbles.

Or was it cream of sum youi

Humphrey good scores have been at the G.

Very small sample size.

 

[vanders]

Graham sub again

 

[No eye deer]

So I’m going to have to take Caldwells score, over Rowell, aren’t I?
Watch that little prick burn us again and pump out a 130….

 

[Caztheconquerer]

Any news on mckercher

 

[Veer Right]

 

[No eye deer]

With Graham sub again, I might just grab Trew for Graham for the cash grab.
Only leaves me with three trades though…

 

[DT_35]

Loop Steele or Green?

 

[JuddgementDay]

I'm going to take a chance on Rowell, rather than take Dowling's 83

We'll see if that is a silly decision or not shortly
This is his final - final chance in my team!

 

[Seppo]

Im backing Sexyton over the 83 on offer with Dowling. Have to awkwardly do a 3 way DPP trade and undo to claim it anyway.

 

[Plugger35]

I've dusted myself off from the carnage last night with Dawson and Caldwell.

Hopefully no more carnage today but that is probably just wishful thinking.

Sinclair, Steele, Marshall, Green and Flanders in the early games followed by Naicos, Bont, Mannagh, Butters. Rozee and Houston.

Weller in and Rosa's out. Sexton probably playing forward

 

[Caztheconquerer]

Rowell starting on the bench

 

[Sherman41]

Couple of important games first up to set up a good Saturday.

VC Sinc
Steele

Green
Whitfield
Flanders


If I work away with a 120+ VC score and 400 points between the other 4 I’ll take it.

 

[JuddgementDay]

Rowell starting on the bench

Yep, they are keeping him fresh - that warm up was tiring!

 

[Scythe94]

Come on Stinklair, I haven't taken a VC in like 6-7 weeks. Could do with a leg up here

 

[A Bit Dusty]

Started well
