Anywho, shattered to find out I am no longer the leader of the "DustysChopsticks" team names.. Thought I was funny at the start of the year to find 20 other blokes had the same idea. Lead them all until one of them overtook me this week :(

Not bad from a few of them with 4 of us inside the top 500!

Ill get this Matt bloke back

Arghhhhhh that sucks! Back your gut in mate, don't try and be so reactive!

Yeh, I've been very reactive as far as leagues go this year. But only because last year I was too focused on overall score and didn't pay attention to cashie league opponents at all. I wound up missing out on finals (finished 13th) even though I had the 2nd highest overall score in the Kliq league. Need to find some middle ground, but that's easier said than done, since I have toxic this week and I will have to take a few risks again to bring him back down to earth.

That flog ain't coming down anytime soon. :D
 
Menaspud on the other hand...can't wait to cut that bloke.
I have a feeling he's going to be permanent bench cover for me until the end of the year. He'll never make enough money to be worth a downgrade and his trademark 40-50 scores might be the difference at the end of the season with late outs here and there. I can see it now, final round of the year, GWS coming out of nowhere to become minor premiers with the Cats a close second. Danger and Ward rested, 0 trades left. Menapoo comes out and scores a match-winning 40 for a thrilling win :drunk:.

I have also considered this possibility.
He's definitely the type to do it with.
 
I blame CasuallyDressed (who I was playing in Kliq) for that. We both had the C on Shaw all weekend until he switched to Zorko at the last minute. Zorko scores 120 and the match up was going to be 50/50. I felt the need to upgrade Brown > Joey so that Brown would be a POD for him vs Joey and I should have left it at that, oh but no I got the sudden urge to whack the C on the new recruit because Saints were playing Essendon and surely Monty would go nuts with 40 possies and 140+ SC while Shaw would go 100-120 against tougher opposition in the Doggies. :rainbow: A couple of Saints did end up going nuts with 40 possie games, unfortunately one of them wasn't Joey. My own fault for getting spooked by a league opponent, I would have left the C on Shaw and just let it play out had he not switched his C first. I still won that H2H by 11, but would have won by 100 had I not even made the Brown > Joey trade. :'(:fire:

Yeah. I'm kicking myself for that trade because I'm in other cash leagues and cost myself a **** load of points for trying to go for a C that I didn't think anybody else was going to be using. I'm struggling pretty hard atm so to end up with 2210 with some of the shit luck and scoring I've had wasn't a bad effort. :p

Still, I lost my league games last week because I forgot to put the E on Tippa. Spud.
 
TOP SCORE: 2647
Shaw (c), Dea, Tippa, DBJ, Brown, Weitering
Pendlebury, Danger, Hanners, Ward, Libba, Ross, Young, Hewett
Goldstein, Nic Nat
Zorko, Riewoldt, Martin, Kerridge, Wingard, BenKen
good score considering only one defence premo (Shaw as C)
Taking the Piss. 11 premo's GTFO.
That team is horrible. On paper lucky to score 2k. 2647 GTFO! What a joke.
Remember this team's probably got Laird, Boyd, Ablett, Hall, Adams, Wells on the bench like the rest of us.

Leave my boys alone...and i know you watch them now!

Back to SC...

Thoughts on Titch Edwards

I had him in DL last year and he was very good when he wasn't injured. Tonned up 8-9 times, but did throw in a couple of 50's. He is a a bit of a barometer for the Tiges, he's scoring well when Tiges are playing well and visa-versa. If Richmond can turn their season around, Titch could be a very good pick.

OR he could be toxics third huge mistake :D
 
Which team is yours? I'm obviously 'Guardian Hawks' and somehow on top of the #1 league.

I'm the annoying campaigner that isn't that great but always plays everyone on their off week :)

It'll be short lived I'm sure :(
Captain Loop Whole.

TBH I ain't really been keeping an eye on league. More focused on cash leagues.

Haha, annoying campaigner. I'll join the club!
