Thoughts on the bye?

Personally I'm sick of having had to listen about the Filth for the past week and not having a result to cheer/moan about. I ruddy well hope they don't keep it.

Not much you can do about it when there are 17 teams.

And can't see a reason it would be kept when we are back to an even number of teams next year.

I don't mind havring a bye, or even 2 through the year, as long as there is another game of interest to attend.. EG: State of Origin, or even the Casey game.

I don't like having both sides off for the same weekend.

Exactly.

The bye is a necessary annoyance while the league is in transition. Not worth bothering to think about beyond that.

The AFL are destroying the great game .... Supercoach .

And the real comp of course .

At least there's only a one day break between this round finishing and ours starting.

I thought it would, but I'm liking the challenege of managing your players for the bye. I've got a lot of good, young players and multi-positional players on the bench, so I've been scoring pretty well.

It just sorts the men from the boys.

This round was a toughie for me - forced to play Cam Richardson despite the fact I thought he would be the sub (which he was) simply because my 3 other forwards were Bull, Jack Darling and Goodes.

Yeah I had Richardson starting as well. Unfortunately I had Matera and his 127 points sitting on the bench!

I had Matera and his 127 points out there =D

I'm sitting on 1807 with Josh Gibson and Cyril still to play.

Very much considering selling Jolly and grabbing Petrie now.

Emm, thats the best of it. Maybe a meal at the Leighoak or Bentleigh club thursday.

If it ain't the dreaded "Late Omission" , we've gotta deal with the sub rule and also with the rounds so spread out you've got to submit your side without all teams sheets being finalised . Thank god we've had SC bye rounds , it's messing with my head more than usual .

Not to mention most of my big money guns are playing like Biaches .

And this, ladies and gents, is why I sold Goddard for Swan at the end of round 2.

If you were such a genius you woulda had Swan B4 Rd1 .

Just wasted a trade .

On the back of one game against Richmond? has been rubbish until now.

The dish is a stepping stone player into cox/sandi. sure he will gain another 100k but sounds like a waste of a trade...dont do it to yourself.
