Round 1 Discussion - Lets Get the Season Underway

[Shadow89]

With news that Kreuzer will be out for half the year (and because I'm completely IDGAF at the moment), I'm just running the gauntlet and sticking with Nic Nat and Naismith, so I can bring in Pittonet/De Koning next week. 'I will go down with this ship' is my motto right now

 

[Shadow89]

Made a team under my partner's name, so I can have a more 'balanced' team as well. No-one's gonna win anything anyway, so now I have a team with everyone playing bar the ruck emergency, and J. Kelly, Macrae, Dunkley, Selwood and Grundy in it. YOLO!

I have two teams this year as well. My proper team and my absolute unique team with no one bar rookies above 10% (under nephews name lol)

Even my ship took one look at my team and sailed away shaking it's head. Now I'm just bobbing about in deep water and waiting for come Cthulhu to come drag me under .

 

[Mordecai]

anyone going fort?

Hahaha, this is literally the first thing that comes to mind for me:

 

[Shadow89]

anyone going fort?

Yep! Why not!

 

[VSTone]

Grundy (C), Macrae & Dunks in this one for me... Let's get it on!
T Brown on the pine.
ooh and Cavarra on the pine.

 

[JADED]

Big night.
Got Macrae, Dunkley, English & Smith onfield.
T.Brown on bench

 

[Iceman!]

LMFAO English is just going to let Grundy do whatever he wants tonight... Just put me out of my misery now

 

[TheRednWhite]

I forgot to get Cavarra! Too busy getting Brodie IN out of absolutely nowhere. Disgusting by me

 

[Dupogi]

Macrea warming the pine...

[TheRednWhite]

Go large Grundy(C).

Crae starting on the bench, disgraceful
Stay low Dunks
Took a risk with Crisp as well, so hope he goes 90

 

[TheRednWhite]

Nothing more annoying then a fantasy irrelevant player directly denying a fantasy relevant player some easy points. Easton Wood couldn't hit an easy pass to Crae there.

 

[JDWCE]

I hope Grundy absolutely punishes those who thought it was a good idea to start without him

 

[Dupogi]

He is doing his best

Grundy please don't stop you magnificent human

 

[mezaire]

Anyone know why Fanfooty goes blank (no scores) about 10 times a game?!!
Does it on all devices

What's going on with Dunkley?

I'll cop it.
It's not that anyone is surprised he's good, I personally spent the money elsewhere so it's more than a comparison between Grundy spanking English.
On that last point, English has been woeful so far.
When Cox outmarked him, he offered nothing in that contest.
It could very well be a case of "where is the progression we expected" from him.

 

[powerrrrrrrrrrrr]

WTT Dunkley. Is he playing forward again?

 

[FlowersByIrene]

Geeze, slow start from the Dunk

 

[Iceman!]

Yeah nah i got baited by the English hype again... He is getting a lesson by Cox... ****ING COX? Whatever

 

[TheRednWhite]

Crisp playing a lot up the ground, not sure what to think about that. Probably no cheap +6s tonight but he's started ok.

I'm so glad I backed my gut with Dunks, had a feeling he would be underwhelming. He'll probably still recover with tackles to a respectable score

English had some serious hype about him and to be fair it was predominately off one Marsh game. People expecting a 25 point increase in average (at least that's what I saw on here more often than not), which is crazy. Not many do that kind of step up. Should still see improvement but not against the best ruck in the game who toweled him up both games last year. Grundy earned 3 brownlow votes in each game against English last year so English was always going to have a tough day at the office
