The weekend chinwag – how are you travelling?
How is your first weekend without Sir Gazzlington goin?
Sauce with 110, Sloane with 105 and Danger back to his best with a trouser zip challenging 159.
It’s a no brainer on taking the VC loophole on Danger… but with Gaz gone, I must admit I’m considering taking Sauce’s 110 on the loop.
How is your weekend going so far folks?
Some tweets of interest:
Nice Supercoach score for Danger, thought Sloane would have gotten more and surprised to see only 1 Hawk crack the ton.

Nicky dal or Barlow boys ?
jockreynolds · 12/07/2014 at 09:00
I'd go Nicky Dal with his run home. Swallow back also eases the pressure off him that bit more. Ross factor with Barlow
BCHawks · 12/07/2014 at 09:10
So it would of had to of been Judd that Crouching picked. Anyway I am on 442 from 4 with buddy performing badly again.
BCHawks · 12/07/2014 at 10:36
Sorry meant Roughhead
jockreynolds · 12/07/2014 at 10:52
haha thought you were deploying a gag on us old mate 😉
Ted · 12/07/2014 at 17:00
What happens if you have two emergencies in a position, 1 doesn’t play and the other does? Which score do you get? The 0 or the scoring players score?
gAB · 12/07/2014 at 17:01
the lower score of the emergencies
Derek · 12/07/2014 at 19:27
Only if both play. If only one emergency plays, you get that score
big aggots · 12/07/2014 at 09:23
Had to pull the trigger a week early and bring Smitch into defense this week for Hibberd. Sitting o. Gaz for a week as I want Rockliff. Have Zorko as cover for this week.
Mark · 12/07/2014 at 09:26
Still thinking about trading wingard to b Harvey. It would leave me 4 trades and $230,000 in the bank. Also will b bringing Sam Mitchell in next week. Thoughts?
BCHawks · 12/07/2014 at 10:37
Same here I traded him out for Gray this week, sick of his terrible scores.
john snow · 12/07/2014 at 18:26
I went wingard to parker this week. Wingard is now guaranteed to go 120 plus this weekend
jaydos · 12/07/2014 at 10:51
Thinking of trading Ablett for Barlow or Greenwood to make a bit of coin to fix another area of my team or is there someone else i should consider?my other mids are Pendles JPK Libba Sloane Jelwood Priddis and Beams.Thoughts plz
jaydos · 12/07/2014 at 11:13
am i just wasting my time with this trade?
jockreynolds · 12/07/2014 at 11:46
No I like that jaydos. YOu have Pendles, Libb and co as good skipper options, so i reckon its valid to use the trade to make cash and fix another area
john fitzgerald · 12/07/2014 at 11:06
is it time to trade roughy out?
throttlefinger · 12/07/2014 at 11:08
Roughy is simply one of those frustrating forwards who will make you love him with a 160 score then go Casper and hit 68. I'd hold unless you don't have Parker, Gray or one of the more reliable forwards.
john fitzgerald · 12/07/2014 at 11:09
if it is time to give him the flick i am holding onto gaz this week because im versing the worst player in my main league and i will swing gary to defence and pick up sam mitchel i could then get any fwd.
thoughts of a fwd would be boomer or dusty
SCaddict · 13/07/2014 at 01:48
Hawks have a diabolical run home so yes I'd look to 'upgrade' him if you can, especially if you have more than 5 trades. With less than 5 trades you probably have to keep him unfortunately, all things being equal.
scano · 12/07/2014 at 11:08
traded Ward for Gazza.
was thinking Libba but hoping Ward will continue his good form.
john fitzgerald · 12/07/2014 at 11:22
who for captain?
jpk vc – pendles c
jpk vc – fyfe c
pendles vc – fyfe c
with the last option i will have to make a risky decision nearing 3 quarter time.
jockreynolds · 12/07/2014 at 11:45
Gday John – I like that last option if youre on the ball at the right time
john fitzgerald · 12/07/2014 at 11:52
thanks mate, i get back from football at 3 so ill be able to keep a hawk eye on the situation
john fitzgerald · 12/07/2014 at 11:52
thanks mate, i get back from football at 3 so i will be able to keep a hawk eye on the situation.
Mangrove Jack · 12/07/2014 at 11:28
I went to DePendelberry to replace GAJ, 5 trades left. Thought Hibberd would be back and now no cover on bench. How did ZJones concussion become an Achillies problem.
Have the V on Parker and C on Pendles
Chewy · 12/07/2014 at 11:38
Mora or the church and will mora get a full fame boys ?
shayne · 12/07/2014 at 11:47
thoughts on Dal Santo V Greenwood as last mid
FootyFanatic · 12/07/2014 at 11:54
Who would you trade out if you could only choose one out of Tex Walker or Wingard.
jockreynolds · 12/07/2014 at 12:06
Wingard. Tex should start to assert himself over the next 2-3 weeks
FootyFanatic · 12/07/2014 at 12:14
Thanks Jock!
SCaddict · 13/07/2014 at 02:02
If I was to bet I reckon both will continue to frustrate and disappoint myself.
However Crows do have a fairly easy run home so perhaps Tex can rack up a bag here or there. I just wouldn't count on it though from what we've seen thus far.
He probably needs another full preseason to get back to the Tex of 2012. I plan to dump him from my AFL Fantasy team next week as he's only been treading water in most of the games he's played in 2014.
Jacob · 12/07/2014 at 12:32
How is Kerstens js? Or is there any other forward rookies?
Jacob · 12/07/2014 at 12:53
I have honeychurch
john snow · 12/07/2014 at 18:29
I think his JS is good but don't think he will score well
TOM · 12/07/2014 at 12:51
Is Selwood a good capatain option
TOM · 12/07/2014 at 13:02
Becuase I cant decided who to like loophole out of Selwood, JPK, Libba and pendles
Jacob · 12/07/2014 at 13:03
Captain Pendles vc selwood
antonucci98 · 12/07/2014 at 13:18
VC Options – Nicky Dal Vs Sainters
Stevie J Vs Melbourne
Naitanui (remember cox is out)Vs Brisbane
antonucci98 · 12/07/2014 at 13:25
Joel Selwood also an option
TOM · 12/07/2014 at 13:32
Im thinking not selwood because of the wet conditions
IToldyaSo · 12/07/2014 at 17:27
Big mistake 147 SC Points
Luke · 12/07/2014 at 13:44
Who should i start onfield to cover floggard this week c.shenton or m.honeychurch?
mr dj · 12/07/2014 at 13:57
shenton sub
Michael · 12/07/2014 at 14:48
Big Benny Brown went down in the sheds at 1/4 time – may get subbed out, not sure what's wrong with him atm.
Also anyone know what's up with Bartel? 14pts nearing 1/2 time!
jockreynolds · 12/07/2014 at 15:26
Griffen OUT. Libba holders – watch out – tag will go to Libba now
billy · 12/07/2014 at 15:50
Do GCS tag though? I didn't think that they did.
mr dj. · 12/07/2014 at 15:32
D: Swallow – Bartel – Malceski – McVeigh – Simpson – Suckling – Litherland – Georgiou
M: Ablett – Pendlebury – Selwood, J – Priddis – Beams, D – Fyfe – Murphy, M – Rockliff – Honeychurch – Acres
R: Jacobs – Sandilands – Currie – Brown
F: Harvey – Dangerfield – Martin, D – Roughead – Martin, S – McGovern – Lloyd – Cameron
5 trades left, $50,300, 3rd in league, 6732 overall
1. Ablett > L. Parker (next week s McGovern > Libba via Parker swing to Fw)
2. Ablett > R. Gray (next week same as above)
3. Ablett > Libba
4. Ablett > JPK
5. better option
thoughts please
billy · 12/07/2014 at 15:51
A all the way
Cashcows · 12/07/2014 at 17:30
Should I take jelwood 144 VC or risk it on fyfe?
Mike · 12/07/2014 at 18:16
take it no doubt
Cashcows · 12/07/2014 at 22:16
Taken thanks capt rocky
john snow · 12/07/2014 at 18:33
take that for sure. Fyfe will be very, very luck to score that highly, Hope he does, I had the VC on Dal Santo and the C on Fyfe
dognino · 12/07/2014 at 18:10
Does anyone know how long treloar will be out for? I don't have cover for him, and if he's gonna miss multiple games I might trade him out to ward or Barlow
Cheers community
Derek · 12/07/2014 at 19:24
Had to play Shenton this week to cover for Rocky, he was SUB. Had time to change to Honeychurch, he was SUB but still had time to change to Johnstone (Carlton)
Derek · 12/07/2014 at 19:26
Go Blaine! Seems odd, but I really need to keep Rocky.
Derek · 12/07/2014 at 21:37
Blaine is 7sc at 3/4 time
SCaddict · 13/07/2014 at 01:57
You just can't take a trick you poor bugger.
You'd think at least one of these blokes could register at least 40pts going into this weekend but their head coaches had other ideas.
David · 13/07/2014 at 03:23
Who should i put the C on this week out of D,Martin, Beams, Pendles or Pavlich?
Donavan · 13/07/2014 at 09:18
Pendles, also hear that Beams may be out.
john snow · 13/07/2014 at 10:41
Where did you get your info on beams being out?
john snow · 13/07/2014 at 10:41
pendles
jockreynolds · 13/07/2014 at 11:47
Gotta go Pendles mate
Itchy Nuts Pieman · 13/07/2014 at 08:41
Should be some huge scores this round. Looking at 2500 odd personally!
SCaddict · 13/07/2014 at 10:37
Yes Pieman I'm projected to hit around 2500 too. Like many folks I have Pendles as C today so how he goes will have a significant determination on where I eventually land. So 150 plus would be sweet! 🙂
Itchy Nuts Pieman · 13/07/2014 at 11:59
Nice one SCA. How’s your overall rank. I’m hoping Pendles pulls off a monster
SCaddict · 13/07/2014 at 12:35
777…a nice easy one to remember ha ha.
Hoping to bob up a few places after this round but will just have to see what the final wash up is tonight. How about your good self?
@TG_Footy_Tragic · 13/07/2014 at 12:46
Me too Pieman! 200 from Pendles would be nice :p
Are you a Collingwood supporter? or Just like Meat pise?
Or both?
Haha i'm a one eyed pieman myself – Hoping for a nice win today!
Rank 116 – hoping to pull off a top 50 or so. best before this year is 1761 (last year)
@TG_Footy_Tragic · 13/07/2014 at 12:47
haha *meat PIES*
Itchy Nuts Pieman · 13/07/2014 at 13:47
I am a die hard pies man. But I love meat pies myself. I’ve knocked over my fair share. Rank is 590. So not too bad. But 6th in my main league. Really tough league. 007 would sound better SCA
Itchy Nuts Pieman · 13/07/2014 at 13:50
Fantastic rank TG. That’s nuts. You still in with a shot to win it?
jockreynolds · 13/07/2014 at 11:46
2418 projection at the moment Pie
Itchy Nuts Pieman · 13/07/2014 at 11:58
Not bad at all Jock. Had the VC on JPK but I can’t get the score. No loophole options. Bench played early this week
Michael · 13/07/2014 at 14:36
I did the same bloody thing – didn't realise until after all games yesterday! Have C on Fyfe as a POD, hoping he can blast another 150+.
@TG_Footy_Tragic · 13/07/2014 at 12:48
Nice one Jock – Mine is 2462, on 1797 w/Pendles as (C), Mundy, Dusty, Sandi and Beams.
BCHawks · 13/07/2014 at 12:05
had some bad scores from Hanley, Roughead and Bartel but I should crack 2400
Itchy Nuts Pieman · 13/07/2014 at 08:43
How is everyone travelling
jockreynolds · 13/07/2014 at 11:45
Petrie and Grimes dragging the chain slightly with 85's, but will take it from those lads..
blake · 13/07/2014 at 11:54
looking at 2300 odd but having shenton, litherland and honeychurch on field for hibberd, rocky and the dufflecoat has cost me well over 200 points. Over than that travelling ok.
BCHawks · 13/07/2014 at 13:25
The week I trade out Wingard is the week he starts to perform well!
john snow · 13/07/2014 at 13:43
It was guaranteed, I traded him this week as well. Got Parker for him though so he surely wont score as well as him this week or for the rest of the season
SCaddict · 13/07/2014 at 16:05
You've got that right!
Apples and oranges from a fantasy perspective.
jockreynolds · 13/07/2014 at 17:06
Same here lads
Tommykwr · 13/07/2014 at 14:56
I also traded him out but got dal santo
SCaddict · 13/07/2014 at 15:58
Nah you made the right move. He just goes MIA too often to really trouble the Champion Data boys. Plus it looks like the Port bubble has now officially burst and they have a challenging remaining draw.
The kid hasn't even averaged 80 for the season so you'd have to say he just isn't fantasy relevant in 2014 unfortunately.
john snow · 13/07/2014 at 13:44
At the moment I have the C on Fyfe, thinking of changing it to Pendles….
thoughts????
Itchy Nuts Pieman · 13/07/2014 at 14:19
Wonder what Ross has install for us today
john snow · 13/07/2014 at 15:10
No feedback, ended up going with Pendles, hopefully the right call. Plays well against Essendon. Fyfe could go large this arvo too though
Michael · 13/07/2014 at 16:30
H/T Bombers vs Pies relevant SC scores
Bombers: Chappy 87, Ambrose 58, Heppell 48, Ryder 47, Daniher 23
Pies: Pendles 59, Sidebum 55, Beams 52, Swan 33, Cloke 18, Langdon 17, Kennedy 0 (sub)
Derek · 13/07/2014 at 17:59
All going well, ahead of opponent by 47. I had Cloke, he had Ambrose.
Just when you think you get a win….
Michael · 13/07/2014 at 18:36
approaching 3/4 time Freo vs GWS:
Freo: Fyfe 85, Pav 84, Mundy 77, Barlow 74, Johnson 57, Sandy 52, Mayne 46, Morabito 5 (sub)
GWS: Greene 97, Ward 87, Mummy 63, Kelly 35, Cameron 26, O'Rourke 0 (sub)
BCHawks · 13/07/2014 at 19:44
A pretty poor 2311 for me this week. I hope that I don't drop to much in the ranks.
Danners16 · 13/07/2014 at 19:48
2486, a good score, not good enough though losing a league by 1 point due to scaling. Just got to hate it sometimes
David · 13/07/2014 at 19:52
2416 🙂 with the likes of Bartel and Shenton stinking it. Looped Steve Johnson for captain 🙂
Horse · 13/07/2014 at 19:53
2436/Boomer
Rank: 334 (hope to climb again). Rockliff DONUT hurt a potentially good score…
Good (14 100+): Danger 159, Boomer 150, Selwood 144, Ward 132, Fyfe 127, Malceski 123, Parker 123, Mcveigh 121
Bad: DONUT, Bartel 57, Jaensch 78 (goes to the bench next week, Cutler out S Mitchell in)
The benchmark · 13/07/2014 at 19:56
2513 all premium squad with 3 trades and 200k in the bank. Cruise control
Tommykwr · 13/07/2014 at 19:57
2400 on the dot with Liberatore as captain. Also had a donut and mackie stinking it up in defence
How did everyone else go?
Adam · 13/07/2014 at 19:57
2326 with 21men, not too shabby at all
Fyfe cap
Bartel and Jaench stinkers didn't help
The Garbo · 13/07/2014 at 19:59
pulled a 2422 this round.
Quite pleased with myself, especially entering the round with ablett + goddard on the bench, whilst having to play Shenton (ended up as sub…) and Ambrose.
Michael · 13/07/2014 at 20:01
What does everyone think par score for this week is?
Finished on 2469.
Highlights: Enright, Murph, Parker, Ambrose, Danger, Jelwood, McVeigh, JPK, Cotchin, Beams, Simpson, Zorko all perfomed above expectation.
Lowlights: stuffing up captain loophole – had VC on JPK but left it too late to get the C off Fyfe, only cost me 13pts luckily; shockers from Bartel, Hanley (only traded him in this week too!), plus unders from Sandy, Swallow, Sauce, Fyfe, Pendles, Dusty & Taylor.
How did everyone go?
SCaddict · 13/07/2014 at 20:09
Anything over 2500 is a damn fine score. Think most coaches should be satisfied with anything over 2400 given all the outs this weekend and popular backup such as Honeychurch and Shenton starting with vests.
Plenty of good coaches were sub 2400 this week for one reason or another. I finished on 2450 after Pendles and the rest of his Pies spudded it up so very happy to bank that score and just move on to next round.
Derek · 13/07/2014 at 21:37
2487 (included Cloke’s 31).
Won my two major leagues by 8pts and 1pt. Thrillers.
Derek · 13/07/2014 at 22:31
Saw Danners post above!
John · 13/07/2014 at 20:11
2424 – topped my league despite having pendles as captain. Pretty happy with that.
OzSonic · 13/07/2014 at 20:11
2419.
Hanley the big disappointment. A few under par but overall pretty pleased.
I've got the Suckling Pig and Jaensch still in my back half and plan to amend that when the time is right. Bartel and Mitchell the obvious candidates. Don't liek planning to far ahead though. Injuries have a way of breaking up my plans so I don't 😛
SCaddict · 13/07/2014 at 20:31
Very keen to see how Crouching went after reading that teaser tweet about his mystery trades.
Hopefully the slipper spoke wisely! 🙂
SCaddict · 13/07/2014 at 21:43
Looks like he went B.Crouch and K.Jack…..very interesting selections there.
BCHawks · 13/07/2014 at 21:46
Yer I was shocked to.
Caz · 13/07/2014 at 20:51
2404 with 2 players short, won all my games so very happy.
Cam_H · 13/07/2014 at 21:12
Well done to 2,400+ scorers.
Sadly for me my team's been pummelled by injury week after week. Maybe next year …
Chippa888 · 13/07/2014 at 21:25
Wingard = Stain in my underpants again. P**s off my team welcome.
john snow · 13/07/2014 at 21:39
was a great feeling to be wingard free this weekend
SCaddict · 13/07/2014 at 21:45
Sounds liberating!
Jambo · 14/07/2014 at 10:00
Scored 2150 without 2 players and with an underperforming James Bartel. I was not expecting much but still not bad methinks.
