TooSerious
For those who take it way too seriously
Firstly this week we have to thank Tom Mitchell for finally breaking the Best Buy curse, and even managing his highest score for the year to date. Given it's a small sample size, but we still appreciate the effort. Secondly, apologies for the delay.
The Best Buy for this week has been close to it for a while now, Demons defender Tom McDonald. Topping the charts for defenders this season by 5 points-per-game he has really stepped up to a new level this year, while he was consistent previously (with an average in the seventies for each of his past 4 seasons) he wasn't especially fantasy relevant. That has all changed now though, as is made pretty clear by his stats. Averaging 20 disposals with a kick:handball ratio of 2:1 and a disposal efficiency of 77%, 8 marks and 6.6 rebound 50's per game, for a key-position defender he's going alright.
DEFENSE
ROOKIES
[span style='color: #1a1a1a;]
[span style='color: #1a1a1a;]Jake Lever (ADE) DEF 157.3k 66 +46k
[span style='color: #1a1a1a;]Lever has looked good in his first 2 games at the top, averaging 66 and facing a quick price rise of around 46 grand. With Jaensch going down for the season and Smith continuing to head-butt things he shouldn't, Lever looks set to keep getting games as long as he performs.
[span style='color: #1a1a1a;]
[span style='color: #1a1a1a;]Alex Pearce (FRE) DEF 123.9k 50 +34k
[span style='color: #1a1a1a;]Pearce has joined the other two Pearce's at Freo, and has seemingly fit in fairly well. Averaging 50 flat over his first 2 games means he will increase his worth by around 34 grand after his next game, which hopefully will be this weekend. For rookie players under Lyin it seems the hardest part is just getting a game, a feat which Pearce has now managed twice.

Let me begin by saying: To anyone who had Pendles as captain this week, we're sorry. He was our captain too, and as you'll all know by now, whoever the donors pick is guaranteed to do sh!thouse, so its always best to pick someone else.
What makes things worse, is that at this rate I'm going to run out of analogies for this team very soon. Anyone with any ideas, can you please post them in the comments, to help keep me going.
The donors did manage to break 2,000 points this week. We had a lovely little rollercoaster of scores, ranging from 16 to 141.
For round 7 we scored a total of 2,036 points.
We had a ranking of 62,719 for the week.
Our aggregate score is 14,420 for season 2015.
In the overall standings, we're at 35,273.
Now lets have a look at our rollercoaster team, with all the ups and downs that were involved.
Defence:
H Shaw 118
J Newnes 95
J Gibson 83
K Kolodjashnij 81
A Oxley 64
B Smith 16
Bench of K McIntosh 61 (emergency), and A Saad 0.
Cheater did well, Newnes wasn't as disappointing as he's been this year, and Smith is clearly the best trade we've made all year! A total of 102 points spread across our defensive players this week, with the highs of Shaw, the lows of Smith, and the loops of Newnes and Oxley. We probably wouldn't have made the selection, even those he has been a disgrace since joining the side, but benching Smith and bringing McIntosh into the team would have given us an extra 45 points this week.
Midfield:
D Beams 141
JP Kennedy 122
P Dangerfield 116
N Krakouer 104
T Miller 98
S Pendlebury 85 (C, 170)
A Vandenberg 37
P Cripps 0
Bench of J Nelson 46, D McKenzie 31 (emergency in place of Cripps), and C Ellis-Yolmen 0.
There were some high points in the middle run of our rollercoaster, with Beams, JPK, and Danger all doing the job we expect of them. Krak and Touk were the smooth bends at the top of each section of the coaster, where you get to take a breather and see whats coming up...

<p style='color: #424242;]I love Where Are They At threads. It's a chance for a loud-mouthed, ill-informed pundit to back-seat drive all over the list-management decisions of other coaches he has no quarter speaking on. And given the midseason period is fast approaching, what better time to start the long-range sniping.

<p style='color: #424242;][span style='letter-spacing: 0px;]It's said that the night is darkest just before the dawn, which is erroneous because the night is actually darkest in its middle at around 2 am. The question is at what point are the TLP at in their long sleep? Probably around about 2 am on the rebuild/premiership clock, though that's not say that their dark night of the managerial soul persists without flickers of hope.

Birdsville 1367 d Larrikin Lagoon 1348
Best: Battlers - Treloar 139, T McDonald 124. Lefties - Priddis 196 (yes, 196), Mitchell 128.
The Skinny: What the hell? How can a team boasting a near double ton from the curly-haired man still lose? Two words: Red Vest. Thanks to the (hopefully) soon to be abolished subs rule, Larrikin Lagoon lose out on points to Suban (36) and Lloyd (54) after both were subbed. Overall however, a top notch game from two of the most improved teams in the league.
Darraweit Guim 1479 d Powlett Plains 1081
Best: Dirigibles - Mullet 139, Edddiiieee 134, five others scoring 110+. Packers - Sandi 109, Pearce No. 1 109, Agent Scully 102.
The Skinny: Darraweit's players click on the same day and fuel a return to the top of the table. Eddie Betts and Michael Walters (112) a dazzling double act up forward. Packers without any luck, and with 3 late withdrawals - including having a player earmarked to replace a late withdrawal also pull out just before game time.
Cradle Mountain 1322 d Whitsunday 1058
Best: Devils - Grigg 143, Shiels/Hair Heppell 121. Warriors - Gibson 117, Lobbe 99
The Skinny: A stunning late game effort from the oft-maligned Shaun Grigg put the cherry on top of the Devils' win over Whitsunday. Seven centuries, with Dustin Fletcher scoring the first post 40yo ton in ORFFA history, helped Cradle Mountain along the way. For the Whits, Sam Gibson played a fine game but without Sloane, Hrovat and Wines the Warriors depth is being tested.
Charlie's Opening 1310 d Marble Bar 1130
Best: Spelunkers - Nicholls 114, Thurlow 119, Hansen 106. Misfits - Yeo 146, Rich 122, Steak Knives Laird 101.
The Skinny: The less celebrated Spelunkers' players had a party at the Misfits' expense, with Nicholls, Thurlow and a returning Hansen leading the way. Jack and Grundy also topped the...

The dude had it on a string and scored 196SC points this week, however, only 9,963 coaches had the Brownlow medalist.
Wonder if anyone was crazy enough to put the big C on him though? It *was* against the Suns.
Anyways, feels like every week I'm lamenting the brutality of this game, and with guys like Lumumba, Lonie, Barlow, Griffen, B. Smith, Salem, Vandenberg and the upcoming Oxley.
Gosh, think I might need a drink!
How have you fared this weekend?

A swag of outs on Thursday night followed by late withdrawals and SC relevant players dropping like flies as the games are playing out
Lets hope the round has some monster scores mixed in for a bit of light relief
Fingers crossed your teams manage to avoid the pain better than most

I'm sorry.
DEFENSE
ROOKIES
Daniel McKenzie (StK) D/M 117.3k 71 +63k
McKenzie is on the bubble this week sporting an average of 71 and looking at a likely price rise of over 60 grand. With D/M positioning and other defensive and midfield rookie options struggling with form or injury he looks to be a popular trade in target this week.
Henry Schade (GCS) DEF 123.9k 53 +37k
Schade is also on the bubble, and in a Gold Coast team that has been severely hampered by injury. Averaging 53 and facing a price rise of around 37 grand he should hopefully get a few more games but will have questionable job security when others return to the side.
MID-PRICERS
Corey Enright (GEE) DEF 498.1k 98 2.3%
Enright seems to have found some of his previous form again, scoring 126 in his last game to bring his average over the last 3 rounds to 112. Sitting in just over 2% of teams he is a huge POD, but given his age a risky one.
Heath Shaw (GWS) DEF 491.6k 97 25.9%
Heater had a somewhat quiet game against the Hawks, managing a score of 89 to bring his average to 97 for the season. Sitting in over &frac14; of the teams in the comp he isn't a massive POD but is always a risk of scoring 120+.
Liam Picken (WBD) DEF 492.8k 95 2.8%
Picken has been a huge surprise over the last few rounds, scoring 119 in his last game and currently holding an average of 134 over the past 3 games, compared to his average of 57 from his first 3 matches this year. Sitting in under 3% of teams he has huge POD potential, but any coach that has him will be worried about a return to the tagging roles of seasons past.
PREMIUMS
Tom McDonald (MEL) DEF 500.3k 114 12.5%
McDonald isn't showing any signs of slowing down at the moment, racking up another 120+ on the weekend and breaking the 500...
The Best Buy this week is Tom Mitchell.
I'm sorry.

ROOKIES
Daniel McKenzie (StK) D/M 117.3k 71 +63k
McKenzie is on the bubble this week sporting an average of 71 and looking at a likely price rise of over 60 grand. With D/M positioning and other defensive and midfield rookie options struggling with form or injury he looks to be a popular trade in target this week.
Henry Schade (GCS) DEF 123.9k 53 +37k
Schade is also on the bubble, and in a Gold Coast team that has been severely hampered by injury. Averaging 53 and facing a price rise of around 37 grand he should hopefully get a few more games but will have questionable job security when others return to the side.
