Welcome to the post Byes .....a fresh new round of normality ....wait, what ?

There's no normality in the game ATM ....we as Coach's are being challenged every round to factor in all possibilities ......fixture moves, ground moves, and game time moves that impact looping options

This week I get to fill-in for Loose at HB .....that splendid Kenty that has pulled together some absolute cracker OP's ......I'll do my best, so be kind

This week we have the MND Challenge Round, organized by stevebbb, with 36 participants playing for the MND Badge

MND-Intro1.gif

They're a motley crew, but fantastic contributors to a great cause

So howd we finish after the byes ? ......Round 14 for most was a cataclysmic event, but most were in the same boat (SS Titanic) .....not good being stuck in 3rd Class when you hit an iceberg ....and where were all the lifeboats (trades) ? Too few for the number of leaks in our sides, or just enough ?
First time I've come out of the Byes ranked higher than going in .....but I still had the normal two injured mid game players in R12, just when you need it the least, a best 18 round

Good Ol CARL .....that freakin club continues to be the bain of my SC life .....you say **** the Byes , I say **** Carlton !
Cripps 71 , Walsh 71, and couldn't outrun my cousin ......

fat man(1).gif

I mean isn't Walsh supposed to have elite endurance .....FFS he yielded as meekly to his tag as I do to my Wife's "requests" :think:
Then to top it off we have "Fumbles" Docherty , the guy take 3 attempts to pickup the ball ....I mean the press are coming out and saying he refuses to defend ...this is music to my ears, but if you're not going to defend at least pick up the ball & do something
CARL have the Crows this week .....if those 3 guys don't rebound I'm going to loose my shit !

In other news ....Duncan's & Grays injury couldn't have happened at a worse time, sorry owners, know how ya feeling ....popular trades; Hawkins , Dale, failed to launch
Reeves continues to sit on bench's, not playing, not appreciating ....and not looking to the cash cow he promised to complete upgrades ....the whispers remain though he's a strong chance to play this week .....yeah sure !

Congrats to those Coach's who chose Neale as your (C) ......We've all got a heap of those fishing stories, but I had the (VC) on Neale up until 5 min B4 the game ....weathers fine in Sydney, so revert back to Kelly, who strains a fetlock in Qtr1
Well at least it was better than the previous fine call by WW19 in choosing Cripps as a (C) who produced another 70 ......I can pick em, that's for sure

BRISBANE V GEELONG (Thursday)

Neale back in full beats mode .....will he get the O'Connor tag ....will you (VC) him or be wary of the tag
Lyons unaffected by Neale continues to pump out big 100's .....as does Stewart in a real purple patch ATM, and when will clubs start playing a defensive Fwd on these guys ?

We get another look at Danger .....his price continues to slide, making him juicy in a couple of weeks ....or have you gone the early
Crow?

RICHMOND v St KILDA (Friday)

OK Byes are finished .....wakey wakey Dusty, time to start doing some damage
Short, I hope you've been watching Stewart .....you're one of my break or make players in the final stretch ..... I have a whip too !

Marshall ....playing this week or not ?
1% ownership ...DPP status ...and estimated to be $450K after his next two rounds .....sounds yummy to me

Highmore ....what a time to pull out a big score, I mean he was dead to most Coache's .....now the sun is shining out his ****, can he repeat the effort with the new found confidence of his Coach ?

NORTH v GOLD COAST (Sat)

John Wayne sleeping.gif

COLLINGWOOD v FREMANTLE (Sat)
Yes he's back ! ......that Man Bun SC Royaly ....but hangon, is it true Grundy has done a "Sampson" and had his locks lopped off ?
If he scores poorly will this be referenced as the reason ....there are precedences of this happening in SC

So what changes will we see from Robert Harvey .....more of the same, or will he put his imprint on this team ....what positional changes will he make .....I can see Pendles back in the guts and being the General
Can see COLL at home having a good win against Freo a side that hasn't travelled well, and still has a lot of injuries, in particular Nat

The contest of the round though is Grundy v Darcy, an upcoming Ruck star .....we'll get some insights for our teams in 2022 this weekend

ESSENDON v MELBOURNE (Sat)
This game I'm looking fwd to a lot .....both good teams to watch ....Gawn has to be a (VC) or (C) option ....although Clarrie makes this choice hard, as he's a great option

Was Ridley's return to form a one-off, or back to his seagulling best ? .......Parish is showing no signs, that his form is not "real"
Newcomb had his expected 2nd game downer ....would have been sore ....confident he'll bounce back this week

WEST COAST v BULLDOGS
What a great round of footy this week .....for the footy purists, some great matchups
How will the Bulldogs react to the WA trip and being in a 5 day hard lockdown ? .....WC are getting a lot of players back from injury, so this game will be a ripper

Macrae will be Macrae .....Bont is in rare form ....but Nic Nat is the in-form ruckman ATM and will be shoving it down his WC midfield 's throats

So really looking forward to this round .....trades are a rare commodity .....patience a virtue

Finally, again a big thankyou to all who donated to the MND Big Freeze .....and good luck to every Coach this week

Nearly spat my water out at the Motley crew. Good shit Wayno :moustache:

Gotta say though, as much as I loved the drive by on the North game they’re giving us 33% of our forward lines. Snooze fest as it is, we’ll all be watching 🤣

Seriously - no acknowledgment of Dougal Howard. Will be everyones perma-captain next year.

Remember where you heard this first.

Fair play.

In return I promise not to mention that Newcombe somehow made it into the Ess v Melb preview.

Ooops .....you don't know about the end of season Newcomb trade ? .... :moustache:

Just my way of checking to see if anyone actually reads the OP :D

Full Forward Grundy! :D
Interesting with Moore out .....do COLL run with Lynch in the Ruck, who hasn't looked bad at all .....and play Grundy FWD more ?

Its not very often that Gawn loses the hitout count. Got to give Lynch a few more games at #1 ruck while he's in form. It wouldn't hurt Grundy to work on his fwd game going forward.
 
Is it too late to enter the mnd comp, got my beanie ages ago, forgot to take a pic
Nope, can sign up right up until the first match of the round on Thurs

Keane or Kelly will come in for Moore I reckon

Lynch doesn't deserve to get dropped and Cameron has showed enough playing as a forward, so I want to see:
Grundy 50% ruck
Lynch 50% ruck
Cameron 100% fwd
Mihocek 100% fwd

(Murphy out, he has been playing as a 3rd tall in the last few weeks and he also has a corkie)
