Round 1 Discussion

[TheRednWhite]

I'm set for my worst round 1 ever. Before the hawks crows game, I was 13C/1200...disastrous.
No Rocky
Crisp/Grundy/Gawn spud trifecta
Needed a miracle with Bray C, but he just struggled to a ton

Lift Scrimshaw!

 

[Deeskys]

Worpel's a gunn

anyone have Scrimshaw on their field? Hawks will need to win or he will be dropped youd reckon

 

[VSTone]

Milera better get amongst it in the 2nd half!

Absolute magnet and won't slow down as Winter hits. If anything, it suits him.

3 in this game, I have Brouch at least (and Laird/Worpel)

Couldn't fit Cousins or Scrimshaw.

 

[Mags98]

cousins and worpel on track, hope they can keep it up

I do, Crouch bros, Worpel, Cousins, Brodie Smith and Scrimshaw. I'm just glad Smith finally got moving.

 

[JDWCE]

Worpel looks as solid as they come for a second year player!

What the **** happened to Melbourne today is beyond me. Shadows ruck tactic is looking better than ever now

Dropped for whom? There's noone standing out that would take his spot. I don't think he's a chance to get dropped at all. In fact, I'd guestimate he's a pretty decent chance at playing all year for development purposes.

What looked like an incredible Round 1, is probably now more a back to the pack sort of feel. Was on track for 2200+, but will probably be lucky to score 2100 now.

1465/13+C with Taranto, Williams, Sheed, Dunkley, Newnes, McCarthy, and a half to come from Shitshaw, Smith and Brouch. Can't believe I had Worpel in for a lot of the pre-season and then chose Newnes towards the end. Very annoying.

Jack Scrimshaw can suck a big bag of dicks. Woeful.

Having both Boak and Rocky eased the pain of what could of been a very bad Round 1

I still had Gawn, the pleb. Genuinely thinking of dropping him to a cheaper ruck as well. If i'm gonna score 80's I'd rather they cost 200-300K less

Had M Crouch locked all pre season and ditched him in the end. Classic case of over thinking it.

You and me both. The whole Melbourne side was woeful. How do they lose to a new look Port side who debuted 4 blokes who had never played a game of AFL between them is beyond me.

Was fairly stoked to start Oliver as he appears like a pod and to me was a no brainer to finish top 8. Stunk it up big time

feel your pain, did the same. I called a 130 from him since thursday lockout. I was wrong. He'll get 150

Yep one of Grundy and Gawn has to go. Not just because they were overpriced spuds to start the season but I also just have to get rocky ASAP with his next 2 games being carlton and brisbane. Gawn certainly put his hand up today

 

[JDWCE]

Adelaide have such easy fixtures I can see their midfield having some serious field days this year

I Was the same but for some reason he never makes my final cut. Went Brayshaw instead

My thoughts too. Think both Sloane and Mrouch will be in the convo for top 8 after the first 6 rounds

I was sh*tting myself over Brayshaw's score at 3/4 time. 57 and my captain, that nearly killed me. 43 points in the last quarter and second highest scorer in his team behind Salem, made me feel a lot better. I was just hoping for an 80, but literally cheered when he got his last handball which gave him exactly a ton

i also didnt start with either Grundy or Gawn. However my Jacobs selection is barely on track to reach his BE of 80.

Rucks are going to test everyones nerves i reckon.

Same mate. Let’s hope he doesn’t go in dry 2nd half, will take sub 130 from here

Everyone and thing can get stuffed
