For those who take it way too seriously
Round 9 (AFL 9) 24/5 - 26/5
Geek Pride round
Round 9 is the first of the returning themes of 2012 - Geek Pride round. Geek Pride day is on may 25th and we figure it is quite geeky to play in a fantasy football competition such as this
... There are actually quite a few significant days on the 25th and 26ht May that the geek's had to fight off... and they did.
With Chris88 unavailable to do a writeup this week, and nobody else putting their hand up to fill in, I have managed to put together a brief recap of round 8.
# Home Away
1 Marble Bar 1159 lost to Gariwerd 1192
A close loss to Marble Bar in a fairly low scoring afair. Best scorers were Jack Steven and Jarrod Waite for Marble bar and Kobe Stevens for Gariwerd
2 Birdsville 1140 lost to Larrikin Lagoon 1246
An upset win to the Lefties. Best scorers were NicNat and Mzungu for Larrikin Lagoon and Mayne for Birdsville.
3 Whitsundays 1103 defeated Nunnawading 1075
The late out of Grant Birchall wasnt enough to stop Whitsunday from getting a win here. Best scorers were Adam goodes for Nunnuwading and Barlow for Whitsunday.
4 Waikickamoocow 1378 defeated Darraweit Guim 1224
A fairly high scoring game saw the Cows run out winners. Highest scorers were Boyd and Rance for Darraweit Guim and Taylor and Fyfe for Waikikamoocow.
5 Powlett Plains 1195 lost to Iron Knob 1369
As expected, the mighty CodPieces have continued on their winning way. Best scorers were Ablett, Douglas, Griffen and Darling, all from Iron Knob; and Newman was Powlett Plains' best scorer.
6 Lovely Banks 1028 lost to Mount Beauty 1037
An extremely close match saw the Uglies win by just 9 points in a very low scoring game! The only centurian for the winners was Cotchin and for Lovely Banks they had Adcock, Lucas and Ballantyne reach triple figures.
7 Venus Bay 1377 defeated Charlies Opening 1345
Another high scoring game,...

Sydney V Collingwood
Sydney by 47
The reigning premiers opened Indigenous Round as expected by smashing a very flat Magpie side. Adam Goodes played as you'd expect of a dual Chas winner on the big stage, gathering 30 disposals, kicking 3.2 for a massive 169 and three more votes. ROK (143) was all over the Pies with 14 tackles & 25 touches. Hitting the scoreboard were Daniel Hannebery (113), who kicked 2.1 with 31 touches, and Mike Pyke (100) with two straight. Scott Pendlebury (119, 28 touches, 5 tackles) and Luke Ball (101, 28 touches, 9 tackles) were the only two tons for the cold Pies. Brent Macaffer (79) is still mooing thanks to his new found role as the Pies #1 tagger, but a lot will have been hurt by it this week as JPK was tagged out of it with just 56. Super Sydney sub Jed LAMB is going to remain a rookie option for another few games, assuming he can shrug that vest. A green vest affected 8 didn't meet his BE of 30, and will see him drop next week to about $106K.
Heroes
Goodes, Heath Grundy, Pendles, Hannebery, Jarrad McVeigh (108), Ball, Pykey, Nick Malceski (96),...

More from the mind of TigersTooTough
It's time for part 2 where I'll be covering 2 of the best teams in the last five years, 2 of the worst and North Melbourne and Gold Coast. Differing starts to their seasons have meant fluctuating SC scores between each of these teams but there are certainly some players that have impressed and some that haven't.
Let's get stuck in!
Geelong (7 wins 1 loss)
SuperCoach SuperStar: Steve Johnson (avg 115.20)
Bolter: Mathew Stokes (avg 100.62)
Disappointment: Tom Hawkins (avg 74.71)
The Cats have been supreme with their only blemish coming this past round against Collingwood. Steve Johnson has only played 5 games but his class has shone through in each of his performances. He has been consistently brilliant however injuries seem to be playing a bit of a part in his season. Jimmy Bartel (avg 109.38) has also been very consistent and is proving those who thought he was over the hill&rdquo;, wrong. Joel Selwood (avg 109.75) has been up and down but is a star who will get better as the season goes on. Mathew Stokes has broken out this season and is proving to be the real deal. His doppelganger Allan CHRISTENSEN (avg 89.75) has impressed as well.
Tom Hawkins has proved to be a waste of money but at such a low price at the moment, he may be worth a punt. His back has caused him problems in recent times so watch him over the next few weeks. It was though that <a href="http://tooserious.net/Player.aspx?id=867&name=Mitch DUNCAN">Mitch...

Nic Nat has been in good form since his return from injury and booted the match-winner last week to grab himself a very nice score, and is at a cheaper price than he started. The ruck/forward will be a very popular target this week, and for good reason.

For the coaches that couldn't resist the lure of Buddy against the Giants last week and brought him in over Priddis, planning on nabbing Priddis this week instead, that's a $35,900 difference right there. Buddy did score 2 points more over the weekend however, and I'm not saying that it wasn't a risk worth taking, merely pointing out the cost. In this game it seems that these are the decisions that will make or break a team, the ones that need to made each and every week.

The third and final part of the club-by-club review is here and again, there have been some interesting results in the below teams. Port Adelaide started the season off really well however, they have cooled off in recent times. Some of their players have accurately reflected this form. Each team has a couple of outstanding players that score well no matter what the situation however there are some interesting SuperStars and Disappointments that have come up from the below teams.
Port Adelaide (5 wins 3 losses)
SuperCoach SuperStar: Kane Cornes (avg 120)
Bolter: Chad Wingard (avg 97.50)
Disappointment: Hamish Hartlett (avg 90.25)
It is amazing that a player like Kane Cornes, has been able to start the season off this well. It is a testament to having a positive attitude and working hard. He is a real leader and provided good support for Travis Boak (avg 105.25), who has also been outstanding. Chad Wingard has taken off out of nowhere and I will be interested to see whether he can maintain his great start. Angus Monfries (avg 92.88) has performed well since moving from Essendon in the off-season. A special mention to Quadzilla&rdquo; Oliver...
