Saints are assholes not bringing in ledger as well.


Yeah I shouldn't have traded Milera into the side ahead of Dazza I knew he'd get an opportunity, on the plus side glad I didn't trade out Thomas Couch who hopefully gets a crack for Melbourne another mature ager let's hope he's another Magner.
Still not sure if I'll make a trade might just do Fyfe to Goddard weighing up that trade.

Ease up a little haha, they still have a ton of class in that side Swan, Pendles, Cloke, Jolly etc I just don't want us to get smashed, I must say I regret not jumping on the $8 odds earlier in the week though.
Glad to see Butcher in if we can win some of the midfield battle we should be able to kick a decent score.


buddy you will win by at least 6 goals, the so called class players you say they have are like 12 year old school boys with no direction, if you cant beat them this week you never will there in more trouble than naked chick in room full of drunk footballers
Interesting analogy...

Massively regretting trading out Lachie Neale for Clay Smith in SC, always happens to two of my rookies each season when I make knee jerk selections based on one good game.
Wouldn't call Jolly 'class'. He's in horrible form. Probably in the twilight of his career.

Though the Colliwobbles will still win, you'd think. If it was in Adelaide... maybe Port.

Agreed Jolly looks to have lost all that form that made him so good I feel the Swans let go of him at a good time despite us not wanting to lose him, he hasn't really dominated a game for quite a while.

Mumford over Jolly, Swans win out :D
Ok replace Jolly with Sidebottom in the class bracket, Beames has also performed well against us in the past.

Was funny seeing Barry Hall tip us on 360 on the basis of 3-4 tall forwards against Lachlan Keefe as their only tall backs, still have to get the ball forward Bazza =_=
Mmm.. clearly didn't see Kreuzer jumping over the top of Jolly at every single contest last week. Absolutely dominated him. I'd even go as far to say Collingwood has one of the bottom 5 ruck options in the league now.

The only reason Jolly left the Swans was because his wife wanted to move back to Melbourne. I was pissed at the time but it has worked out well.
Still a win :P
Are people tipping Saints or Freo tonight?

I don't know who to tip [Shifty]

freo for me and dees over dogs :P
I tipped Freo, but it's a hard one.

If it was in Perf I'd be a lot more confident.

Just because I like putting things in lists... :P

(best to worst)

Cox/Naitanui
Sandilands/Clarke
Kruezer/Hampson/Warnock
Mumford/Seaby
Ryder/Hille/Bellchambers
Goldstein/McIntosh
Leuenberger/Hudson/Longer
Jamar/Martin/Clarke
Hale/Roughead/Bailey/McCauley
West/Stephenson
McIvoy
Jacobs
Jolly/Wood
Maric/Graham
Smith/Fraser
Giles/Brogan
Roughead/Cordy/Minson
Redden/Renouf

Post yours if you think I am wrong ;)
Lobbe is probably Port's best ruckman. Was better than Brogan last year, but only when he had real support (i.e. not Westhoff).

Injured [Facepalm]
But he's been injured for like a decade straight :P Drafted in 07, played like 12 games? Poor kid.

It's really harsh having Port on bottom, sorry. I think Renouf will probably make an impact this week, not sure why he isn't in their best 22 though?
Richmond's would be Maric/Vickery... Graham hasn't played yet. And I'd say Richmond's could be lower. Smith and Fraser are definitely a better combo and by years end Giles and Brogan could be better too.

He's in this week.

Got injured in the preseason and had to get match fitness in the SANFL.

I was kind of hoping they would play Redden and Renouf, since I think Redden would go much better with support, but they have too many tall forwards as it is. Would probably need to drop Westhoff and Stewart for that to happen. Actually, I think Redden was close to Port's best player last week. Held his own against Mumford for 3/4 quarters, but then tired due to rucking mostly on his own, which is too much for a 3 gamer.

Port's ruck is probably their biggest problem though, so bottom is deserved. There's promise, but no real proven players there.
Actually Smith/Fraser should be much higher, GCS are one of the best clearance teams in the comp.

They'd be up their with Goldstein/McIntosh.

Yeah true. They all seem to chuck their tall forward options in as a second ruck now. Should really put Koshitze and Tippett in there as well.I was putting in ruck options though, so a lot of the players haven't played yet, they're just options.

@Ben, Stewart has been good for them as a second ruck. As you said though, it's the fact that you can't really be certain what your best combination is, because none of the players have really proven themselves. Hawks are the same, but then you two great tall forwards in Roughie and Hale to choose to play in ruck, so that makes up for it.

I just don't like Fraser :P
Can't believe I put 'their' in place of 'there' [Rage]

Friday night footy, who is going to win tonight? Should be an interesting clash. I've tipped Saints, but Freo are capable of causing an upset.
trade fyfe or not? hardest decision ever
Only problem I have with Fyfe is that his break even is about 191 so he's going to go down in price, doesn't matter as much with premiums though so here's hoping he lasts the season.

Yeah but its unlikely. this is the only good chance you get to trade him out or keep him and loss lots of points and money if he gets subbed/rested/injured during the year.

Whitecross looks tempting if he can keep it up will let me pocket 120k:)
Yeah I traded Fyfe for Whitecross.

Milky said: Yeah I traded Fyfe for Whitecross.



Looks great should average 100 for the year i reckon. The monies from this will be amazing:) getting penders early for this will make it a worthy trade
