PIEMAN RESULTS Round 7 v Essendon
Handy win. Plenty of goals. Weak opposition.
I won't believe we're back unless we can do the same 2-3 weeks in a row but it's certainly a start. The Pieman highlight/lowlight was probably Naughton missing out for the first time since some time last year. He did register four goal assists in an unselfish display though so I guess he gets a game next week.
Carryover Teams and Pieman Substitutes
There were 23 carryover teams this week. One of them took out this week's Kelvin.
With all those carryover teams there were quite a few that included Ugle-Hagan from last week so they needed Pieman subs. Unfortunately for most of them it was Treloar or Naughton, but a couple got Dunkley which was pretty handy. All the below were subs for JUH unless stated otherwise:
A bit of Piesplaining maybe in order this week.
We're nearly a third of the the way through the H&A season and you may be wondering about a few things ...
For those mystified by the fact that different Pieman teams can get different subs in the same game it works like this: You can't get a player as a sub if he is already in your team, regardless of any multiples at play. So Treloar was first cab off the rank for most people but if they already had him in their team then they got Naughton. Only if they already had BOTH Naughton and Treloar did they get the third ranked sub, Dunkley.
And a reminder how the subs are determined: the player who kicked the most goals in the WBs' previous game is first choice. Second choice is the player with the next most number of goals and so on. If they're equal then it's the one with the greater handicap. If they're still equal with same goals and an identical handicap it's the one with the lower jumper number. So next week, for example, McNeil will be the first choice sub. After that it will depend on who's playing and what handicaps they get but the order will probably be McComb, Dunkley, Wallis and Weightman. These rules are designed to stop all the set&forget teams eventually converging on the same 4-5 players, which is what would probably happen by mid-season if we just said the lowest handicap player is the sub.
The KELVIN
Whether by accident or design TiAn_ didn't put a team in this week so he got his carryover team of 3x Bailey Smiths and 2x Dunkleys. Very tasty!
This earned TiAn 177 points for a comfortable win over Nath09 (154). Nath was the only one to pick McNeil this week. Snarls Barkley (128) snuck in for third just ahead of RandomDog (125) who loaded up on Smiths this week.
Yet again there were no 20 point bonuses this week despite there being 10 different goalkickers (nice try though Wocka !) I suppose Naughton missing out had a bit to do with that. Thirty-one of the 48 teams had Naughton in them.
The PIEMAN
Nobody has yet opened up a big lead and said "catch me if you can". In seven rounds we've had 5 different leaders and TiAn_ is the latest at the top after today's Kelvin win. Fossie 32 with his set&forget team remains in second place. He only got 52 points today but it was enough to overtake Foxman98 who has slipped from first to third. Nath09 has moved into the top 10 with his 154 points today and ScragCity is back in the top 10 too, thumbing his nose at conventional opinion by taking a double helping of Robbie McComb for 112 points.
Only 160 points covers the top 20 so it could be well be somebody else's turn next week.
Pieman Player of the Week
Lachie McNeil is the deserving PPotW with his 3 goals.
Maximum possible Kelvin score was 301 for anyone crazy enough to go 3x McNeil and 2x McComb. Surely we have a few Maccas out there?
Pieman Player of the Year
It took until the third quarter for him to get going but Cody Weightman's two goals have helped him extend his PPotY lead over Naughton and Bont who only had one between them.
And who would have thought after his heroics in last year's finals series that it would take until Round 7 for Bailey Smith the kick his first goal for '22? Anyway he's on the board at last.
