....but I should be traded out >.< What should have been: Menzel: 85 Duigan: 79 Libba: 127 Foley: 85 Matera: 64 What turned out to be: Lower: 37 Toy: 38 Kraks: 36 A.Swallow (!!!): 75 Petrie: 60 Not my week. Couple games to go. How's everyone else?
Brained it in again. 2367. 10 points up on last week. A few let downs in Toy, Lower and Kraks but overall I was pretty happy. Smith getting 80 on my bench was just so good to see. Got Selwood to come back in next week to replace one of D.Swallow, Harris or Krakouer. Not even bothering about trades just yet. Injuries pending of course
Trades this week Tapscott in for not sure yet maybe Cam Richo Curnow in for Atley got 2330 ish one team 2292 in the other the diff was libba in one team Pittard in the other
Most of the scores seem to be 2,100 to 2,350 in my leagues. I have been given my emergencies score for JRoo (0), which I wasn't expecting. Has dragged me accross the line in a couple of games with a 2,339. Does anyone know if the emergency score will stay for JRoo donut, or will I lose that score because he played?
like everyone, got burnt by the Subs in Lower and Krakour but happy with 2369 which is 2 x 2350+ and only a couple of things to fix atm.
They said they fixed that issue last year.. Surely it will change back.. Got 2239 this week, winning my main league by 3 points.. Everyone except Krakwhore, Richardson & Lower scored over 80 for me this week.. Can't wait for a few more weeks when i start bringing in premium midfielders!!!
@ Corks - my understanding of the rules are that the emergencies score will be given for any players who don't play and/or score donuts - but will be good to know for sure if this is the case.....
@bearfly On SEN on Friday when the DT guy comes on he said that had been changed and if your player plays and gets 0 then you are stuck with it.. So very interesting to see if it has or not..
Ended up with 2453 which I'm really happy with. Just want to get peoples thoughts on Libba or Curnow? It's gonna have to be Bewick out for me (still not 100% convinced I should make a trade).
@Fez Like our donor $$$ league where all but 1 team scored over 2239!!! And that 1 team still scored 2150 or something..
Damn Hibberd is currently on -50! Instead of subbing Selwood for Libba, thought I'd be a smartarse and swing Heppell into the mids to bring Duigan on in Defence. Was worried about Libba being a sub on/off candidate due to dying after quarter time against Essendon. Still happy with score for moo value of course. Kids a such a natural footballer. Tackling machine, beautiful left, gets his on ball. Great to watch.
That is an awesome score General. You should be stoked, especially in R2. Libba > Curnow for job security, also Libba plays GCS next week and Curnow plays the reigning premier. I'm probably going to hold Bewick. He isn't doign badly enough to need to switch him to another rookie. Only if you had a mid-rookie that wasn't playing R3 would I suggest you trade to pick up Libba/Curnow.
Jason re the Libba/Curnow JS weren't you saying last week that you thought Libba might be cut this week due to what you deemed as his poor decision making against Essendon? I realise that today's game was awesome, but are Brisbane any better than Curnow's last two opponents? No Carlton bias either. I have Libba, and no Curnow so no agenda to push one in front of the other.
Libba did a lot of bombing the ball long against Essendon. But he did some really nice passing into the F50 today against Brisbane. That is probably due to the relative differences in the opposition midfields more than anything else. I questinoned his decision making, but after watching Libba today I am comfortable that given enough support in the mids to allow him time with decision making he can and should be fine in the 22. There is no way Libba gets dropped against GCS next week. 6 tackles in the first half was amazing for a second-game player. Not sure that Curnow's 2011 scoring to date was based as much on tackles to be honest.
Ok, so at the end of last nights game my score was calculated at 2367. Wake up this morning to find that my score was a massive 2439. Ranked 181 overall. VERY VERY happy.
Curnow or Libba is going to be the tough decision this week. Good to hear you think his JS is pretty solid now Jason, no other midfielders waiting in the wings to snatch his spot after one bad game? Perhaps Curnow's bigger body will set him apart. And does anyone have any further news on Hibberd?
