Hello community!
I bring you great news from the West!! It is absolutely bucketing down in Perth at the moment. Already 40 mm of rain has fallen in the last 2 hours. Hail and squalls forecast for tonight's match between Freo and Richmond. Barlow is almost a certainty to be recalled and take his place in the side. Perhaps the supercoach gods are going to smile on us for once.
Cheers
Yeah not convinced deBeor not named in peels side either after consecutive 30+ games, Barlow could very well be match day emergency
Barlow gone from my side regardless. Not putting up with this bs every week. And luckily not munching on any donuts.
Barlow playing for Peel – just been confirmed. BUGGER
Hi Jock where did you get that from in respect to Barlow playing for Peel from? Also thoughts on Barlow to Montagna and Adams to Docherty or is Macpherson a must have? Thinking if I miss him this week then I can pick B Dailey or R Mathison next week when they are on the bubble, thoughts?
Going to be a great spectacle then
Its going to be water polo match me thinks. LOL
don't worry me, I have no one from either side
Maybe you should organize some naked women and turn it into a mud wrestling match lol
My rain dance is working!!! More more more ⛈⛈⛈
10 on field rookies. But Hewett's 87 is a good start!
I have 9 on field and hewett's 87 is a great start.. gives us a little faith
Menadue cant get a touch in the blistering sunshine, how is he going to get a touch in the wet?
oh god help me
Everyone comfortable in loopholing parkers 120?
Goldy against Gorringe will get somewhere between 120 – 200 points. But always a chance he could get injured or something. Tough call!
I am taking Parker's score. That will do for me after last week's captain shocker. 240 points is like gold with all these rookies on field. You just can't afford to be too greedy in that situation. I am starting Mc Pherson on the bench with the E on him. If he does well, then I will take Keays off the field and loophole him. If he spuds, then Keays will remain onfield.
Lock it in Ant
Keep him I reckon
I had Danger last week as VC and then change to Gawn. that turned out awesome.
Hey guys, a few dilemmas:
Firstly, who to play for my two rookie spots in the Midfield this week (one of those spots to cover Ablett) out of J.Smith, MacPherson and Davis?
And secondly, am I better off playing Hartley by trading out Wells or Barlow to a Forward Premo and hence avoid playing Menadue, or playing Menadue by trading out Houli to a Defense Premo, and avoid playing Hartley?
Smith for sure, then MacPherson but it's almost the luck of the draw as to which one will score higher.
I'd keep Menadue off the ground if i could afford to. However, hold Barlow. Rumors abound he might get a call up, if not he wont lose any cash and send him packing next week. Wells' time is up for those who had him, served his coaches well, bank that $180k and turn Menadue into a fallen premo ASAP.
Cheers mate. I might still wait until the matches tonight since who I have in mind to trade in for either Houli or Wells play later tonight.
The smart choice would be to wait for late changes for those games before I make the trade, last thing I want to do is make the call too early. 😛
And there's last minute carnage
Hey guys, I have a question for the community.
Most of us who have seen Richmond games know Menadue loves the uncontested possessions. Never goes in and gets it himself. I'm wondering with huge rain expected for the Freo V Tigers game whether Menadue will have any impact as it will most likely be a contested/scrappy game of footy? Would it be wise to trade him to Montagna?
Get him out!!
How many trades are people left with at the moment?
18
21
14 :O
Can't. Stop. Trading. Hahahaha…ahhhh bugger.
20 after this week.
Still have 22. Used 2 this week
20
19
How many should you have ????
i think 20 is about par at round 9
thanks
16 but have 400k and next week double upgrade leaves me 2 off full premo
20
I'm just outside the top 10,000 & need some help to hopefully get a few up in my leagues.
I'm torn between Dahlhouse, Zorko, Montagna & Dusty. They all playing well but thoughts on which one.
Cheers
They are all potentially in the top 6 to have at the end of the year, should be aiming to have them all
IMO Zorko
I'll be looking at Lids in the next week or 2.
Even if Barlow does play is it even worth keeping him?
He is obviously not in Ross' plans for the future and will probably be dropped again if he plays a bad game
Who to put captain this week?
Danger, Gawn, Simpson, shaw?
well my punt on jordan lewis didnt work this week but with the hawks having brisbane melbourne and essendon in the next 3 can hopefully pull 3 big ones out
Yeah bringing in Gibson wasn't great for me but only 1 game.
same mate – bought in Gibbo and Doc. Hope doc can get it done for me
Menadue could actually get a minus score if he plays!
Out: Kolodjashnij / Adams
In : zorko / Docherty
And doni take Parker 120 or
go danger / Shaw
Out: Kolodjashnij or Adams
In : zorko or Docherty
Who to trade?
And do I take Parkers 120
or
C : danger or Shaw
Had Hanners as VC, but 110 doesn't quite cut it. Danger or Goldy for captain?
Same dilemma myself mate.
They way I've been going with the C I'd take the 110!
hope you went goldy
Ruggles late in bloody hell traded him for brand to avoid a donut wow
Same
Barlow will not play tonight, will play for Peel.
looks like I'll be going Menadue to Montagna now. Never putting Menadue onfield
Guys, quick one – DBJ or Ruggles on field? Thanks community.
Danger or Gawn captain?
Loopholing the rug against mitch brown.
Vc danger goldy cap.
Tossing up between smith and keays on field might go keays.
Gotta play menapoo now F you ross.
Ruggles late change in
Yeah got the E on him. Can swing adams on for brown take rugs score.
http://www.peelthunder.com.au/football/team-selec…
Barlow isnt named?
Gawn, Shaw, Danger or Ward who to put the big captain on
LATE CHANGE
Tom Lonergan out
TOM RUGGLES IN
Ross Lyon C U Next Tuesday! If you looking to follow Barlow today
http://www.wafl.com.au/games/view/10644
Well, looks like it's time for barlow to go.
Barlow has 14 disposals and a goal to Qtr time for Peel.
Make that 26 diposals 7 tackles 2 goals at half time
Big Ross tanking?
COLLINGWOOD ARE APPLYING FORWARD PRESSURE, IM SO PROUD
Agree…. not disappointed this time catching a flight down from sydney
Lucky i didnt put the C on danger…. go pies… bring it on doggies
Earth calling the cats……….Is there anybody home??? Players still on the bus I think. What a disgraceful first quarter.
Was thinking to trade in Gibson of defence as Boyd suckling Adams and Ruggles on the pine. Bit the bullet and brought in Simpson instead. So have to hold off on Pendles til next week. Tippett has started to justify holding him since start of the year. One good decision yay. And now Ruggles plays and Pendles is killing them.
Got to keep smiling through the pain!!!
Darcy McPherson done his medial in his knee.
McGovern only 26 at half time, this might mean I have to put Menadue on the field…….. Again
McPherson done a knee. He's gone.
Put him onfield ahead of davis
How long will he be out for?
What are danger, jelwood and ruggles on?
Full time
Danger 81
Selwood 73
Ruggles 60
Wow. Danger's DE must have been poor. He tonned up in fantasy.
Macpherson not looking good
Why aren't people putting the C on Nic Nat??
He is against no ruckman i reckon he's a good chance to go big
Michael Barlow's WAFL stats:44 disposals, 13 tackles, 7 inside 50s, & 3 of the game's 8 goals.
Fair to say he wants that recall
Does Ross Lyon not see these stats, biggest joke he doesnt get a game
He f$%^*d my saints and he'll do the same at freo
Barlow deserves his spot in that dockers side everyday of the week. Lyon is not objective in his team selection, because if he was, he would select him purely on elite performance. Its a disgrace. Clowns like Dawson and Sheridan get picked ahead of him. Seriously?? What a tosser you are Ross.
I meant Taberner, not Sheridan.
200SC?
Anyone know the extent of McPhersons' injury? Seems to be a loophole option now.
From the AFL site suspected medial ligament strain
My ability to pick EXACTLY the wrong captain week in, week out is uncanny.
Danger this week.
Gawn the week before.
I am psychic, but not in a good way.
Take macpharsons score or punt menapoo
MacPharson's score
hey community
do you think tippa will score more than ruggles? can't decide what to do…..
thanks,
I think it will be close but I'd be taking Tippa's points. I've got Tippa starting on the ground. I've got Brown on the ground in the forward line but I'm going to McGovern's 78 points as the emg
Is it worth holding Barlow for this week to see if Ross will come to his senses and pick and if not trade him out then? Or should I just forget about him and bring in zorko this week?
Get Zorko the great asap
Bartlows done all he could in the last 2 weeks and been BOG both games in the WAFL, I'm holding for one more week and upgrading Menapoo to Montagna instead. Next week hopefully can sit on trades with Wells, Hall and hopefully Barlow back which will be better than 2 trades.
Problem is for me I can't afford to upgrade menadue or Mitch brown to Montagna or someone of the like. Atm I have both brown and menadue on the field. If I trade out Barlow I don't have to play one of those two on the field.
Then if that's the case I'd swap Barlow for Zorko. I brought Zorko in 4 weeks ago and he's given me a 100+ every week, he is a Gun.
Do we get rid of MacPherson?
Don't waste a trade, use him for Captaincy loophole for rest of season.
Doubt he will be out for rest of the season
You have to
Should I use the emergency loophole to take Davis' score of 66 or go with Keays?
Keays for me
Playing 11 rookies!!!
Wow!!!
Was that DBJ hyper-extending his knee/leg?
yeah, another bites the dust im thinking, looked nasty
Looks like ill have a fully premo defence (when Laird comes back) before any other line (not including ruck)
Shaw or Goldy as Captain
Think im gonna risk menapoo instead of macpharson at worst I lose 10 points
That's ballsy for sure
Captain decision…
Who to select out of-
Goldy, rucking against non-names
Zorko, hasn't failed yet
Dusty, in the flood against Freo
Also, do I take a 66 from Davis or stick with Keays?
Goldy lol
keays, use the '75' rule bud.
Also Kerridge and DBJ to Priddis and Zorko bang bang probable this week!!!
Sweet i had josh smith on the field. Aaron Young on the bench….87 with a 1/4 to go. :/
114+ full time. Farrrrrk!!!
What will DBJ's BE be after this round if he gets 60?
Think pretty high, around 90
