There has been a fair bit of talk over the week about people looking to trade out Sam Jacobs, and while he certainly is spudding it up I have personally noticed that he is now priced below a lot of my rookie cash-cows. Added to that the lack of good ruck options this week, and for my point of view I think he'll be better off sitting on my bench as cover until he can regain some form.

The Lions D/F is looking like an excellent pick, as he is now on the bubble and rookie priced, but with much greater job security and some good form behind him. The majority of SCer's will likely bring him in this round, as either a defender or a forward, but for very good reason: he looks great value. If Staker can remain fit, and avoid becoming the new Karnezis situation, he'll be a great pick-up.



EDIT: The bye structure is as follows -



Round 11:port, Richmond, Bulldogs, Brisbane, Freo, Hawthorn

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 :) ...

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.

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&amp;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...
