[drummoyne]

Great minds think alike!

BF magpies Div 1

Golby, Magner, Danger, Thompson, Ablett, Heppell Broughton, Fyfe, Dickson, Hargrave & Cox to come.

I am coming at you bro.

 

[THE_GUN]

1227/14 not too bad considering

Shaw 56
ellis 38 (had bugg 97 on the bench )
shiel 36

Going to be an extremely high scoring 1st round looking at the scores being posted.

Hoping for 2100

 

[Blue and Gold Blood]

1126/11 with Gaz, Rockliffe, Fyfe, Broughton, Duffield, Chappy, Lake , Hargrave, Goddard, Redden & Dangerfield still to come.

which one? The midfielder or the ruckman?

Im 1038 from 12.
To come: Ablett (c) Redden(bris) Fyfe, Broughton, Cox, Goddard, Dangerfield, Lake, Golby, and Magner.

 

[Bluetiger]

1050/11 so far.

Remaining players: GAJ (C), Boyd, Thompson, Chapman, Fyfe, Dangerfield, Broughton, Waters, Hargrave, Golby, Magner

Fairly happy with the start. Loving Mitchell and Pendles efforts this evening!

 

[Butler]

1457/15+C

What i think is a realistic prediction:

Boyd, Ablett and Watson to average 110 between them, Fyfe 90, Hargrave and Waters 80 and then Broughton 90.

Would give me about 2127 which i would be happy with.

Ruck sorry. Late change with Giles putting good numbers up in 1st game. Wish it was mid though.

 

[yogibbear]

1149 / 13

9+C to come (all on-the-field rookies played).

 

[Mattrox]

10/939 Captain to come. Couple of disappointing results. Hoping to get past 2000 with several rookies to play yet.

 

[CrozaN]

1126/11 with Gaz, Rockliffe, Fyfe, Broughton, Duffield, Chappy, Lake , Hargrave, Goddard, Redden & Dangerfield still to come.

Post up your starting side

866/10 with Rockliff (C), Magner, GAJ, Porps, Fyfe, Broughton, Stanton, Heppell, Boyd, Hargrave, Dickson and Redden to come.

 

[Crows4Eva]

1047/11

Dangerfield, Porplezia, Ablett, Hall, Fyfe, Hargrave, Boyd, Cox, Goddard, McEvoy and Dal Santo to come.

So far only real disappointed with Shaw, Shiel and Morris, hoped for a bit better from Martin but w/e.

 

[CJApples87]

I have 931 from 11 played so far. Birchall and Franklin, thank you very much. I have Porplyzia, Dangerfield, Sloane, Ablett (C), Watson, Mzungu, Fyfe, Broughton, Boyd, Lake and Waters. I reckon 2000 should be made, hoping for more than that, though.

The missus' team has 1161 from 13 so far. She's got Leuenberger, Magner, Ablett (C), J. Selwood, Dickson, Boyd, Hargrave, Goddard and McEvoy. She could really push 2100 with that lot and will probably beat me.

 

[Papa Juggs]

980/11

Very happy with Suckling.

Magner, Dickson and a stack of premiums to go.

I reckon I'm sitting pretty. Hope all the midpricers fail.

 

[Freo2012]

1243/14

most disappointed in Shaw and a couple others below par/hoped for

Boyd, Ablett(c), JSelwood, Goddard, Fyfe, Broughton + midprice + rook to come

should get to about 2150 which I'd be reasonably happy with for R1

 

[SupportMe]

12 inc. C played for 1047. Disappointments include Shaw and Burgoyne.

Cost myself about 150 points leaving Ellis, Morris and Coniglio on the field and Kennedy, Bugg and Clarke on the bench.

Still have - Bartel, Pavlich, Sloane, Clark, Jacobs, Porplyzia, Waters, Lake, Butcher, Boak to play. I know there's some risks in there but I think they'll pay off.

I can hear the DT veterans grinding their teeth as I speak.

 

[Danog]

1173/13

 

[portetdaspet]

1145/12

Players left:
Rockliff
Dangerfield
Ablett (C)
Zaharakis
Heppell
Broughton
Fyfe
Hargrave
Lake
Goddard

Hoping for over 2200 which should be above average. Top 2000 after 1 round?

Similar to me. 12/1028. Waters, Heppell, Goddard, Lake, Broughton, Chapman, Christensen, Hayes, Vince, Ablett & Gray (doh!) to go.

 

[portetdaspet]

Does anyone else have Swan and is a bit worried after last nights game?

He managed to get 102, but obviously priced at 120 that is not good enough. He didn't seem to be around as many contests as I remembered from last year and this was backed up by Malthouse saying he thought Swan was playin forward more. I will be very interested to watch next week and hope that I am worried about nothing. However, if he repeats the dose I may have to consider the unthinkable and look at trade options.

I know this sounds rash, but if there is a role change from Swan he will drop a lot in value. It's just a thought I had anyway.

 

[Plugger35]

949/10

Only Buddy, Swan (c) and Clarke tonight. Was hoping for a bit more from Swan and Clarke but can't complain too much.

Bit early to drop off Swan, he still scored a ton tonight when he was below his best. Still think he will be one of the best DT scorers this year so you would be mad to trade him unless he gets injured or really loses form.

I know its only one game and realise it would be a very aggressive move, but the immediate impression I got tonight was similar to Goddard's start last year. If you started with him, which almost everyone did, the right move was definitely to get rid of him after 2 rounds.

I probably won't go through with this, but if he continues like he did tonight you may be able to save 60-80k and get a similar or better scorer.

 

[gonetroppo]

1227/14 with Gablett (c) Broughton Fyfe Rockliff Adcock Boyd Hall and Smedts to come, 2000 would be great, 2050 awesome 2100 unbelievable

 

[Forward Press]

If Swan can stink it up and still rack up a ton, he's a damn fine Dream Team player.

Apparently he may have laid a total of 0 tackles tonight as well.

Unless he's injured or Bucks sends him to full back, I'm not sure what you will gain by burning a trade on him.

 

[Dularn]

1134/13

Could be better, Shaw let me down...

Still to come:

Ablett (C)
Rockliff
Boyd
Fyfe
Broughton
Dangerfield
Hargrave
Lake
Magner

Hoping to still get 2k+

Would be 1242/13 If I had picked better rookies to start.
