No doubt he will kill them this week, bringing you another WIN.Gee would love to place you in the lower deck, but think you will belt me again.Loosing Hille, Ball, Gray, and this week SJ really puts me behind the ball game.Also, doing this from Japan, is really hard work.

anyhow, enough excuses.Your odds on and I would not back myself.Your ruckman will win it for you, great strategy having two good ruckman whom gain lots of possessions.Just hope I make it interesting.Take pity on me, please

I have lost Yarran to injury, and Shueys shoulder may seem him out as he is EIC.

50/50 in my opinion. My defence is weak and the team managed only 2.10 last week.

You're red hot favourite in scoring terms. And already in front on tackles. Facing an uphill task to get the 4 points this week.

Loving the mind games going on between you 2 Shrewd coaches.

You are the favourite~ No you are?

I am the underdog - No it's me facing an uphill task.

Line ball decision for mine - Shuey playing or not might just decide the contest

Agree. And if I was Worsfold I wouldn't play him if they are leaving it until morning of match to test.

Scales tipped in JCB's favour.

What a lot of BULL.He is playing and will STAR.I'd back ya @ I/3,Certainty,Will win, kicks, frees, H/o's.leaving the others a little open. But with the odds and your playing list you are a cert, if I had of been able to playHille, Ball, Gray but I suppose it is only a game but gee I'd luv to beat HT. Believe me!

What's with the stupid Waiver system this year?

I can't remember having to battle through this red tape last year?

If we needed to top up a player after selection we simply recruited them from the player market.

& the players we bidded for earlier in the week have gone from April 27 to May 1 on the waiver system?

What am I missing here? Was this the same in season 2011?

Ruddy hard work isn't it.R U back from USA ?

We play each other next week and I'm away in Japan.You may gain a walkover so I'll have to,no really have to try to put High Tower into the allowed Deck, being the Lower type but very very doubtful.But gee I'll be giving it everything.

Oh well, there is that too. But I'm actually hoping he will contribute to scoring given Clark's absence. If I'm to bury you, I may as well make a good impression....

Edit: Fwiw you have never given me heartburn JCB.

Why do people continue to believe that there are "mind games" going on between coaches? I get that people want to believe that this is the next best thing to AFL coaching, but honestly, are you really going to not pick you best players because the opposition coach says he thinks he may lose?

You are a sad case as you are a looser- you wouldn't know- remember Kevin Sheedy or Malthouse in their prime.You are totally correct, but to me, it is a bit of fun.I, actually have a lot of time and respect in HT, a hell of a lot more than some others.

You have got it, a bit of fun as far as I am concerned,sad to see some take it so seriously.But you are also correct re Shuey, he plays,he wins.

It's so difficult. Is this more example of said mind games?

no - just admitting one opponent is a nemesis that I just cannot beat. One needs to admit, if someone is better.That is how,I play the game.But don't worry to much for me, I will get trounced this week, but will bounce back, hope you have a great year yourself.At least I am in front in the tipping part.Where are you ?no where as usual.

I'm usually no where? That's pretty hard to do.

stole a three hit out win,footy gods swung my way with mcauley being a late inclusion!

Came down to 2 marks in the end in a ding-dong battle with with Snomed.

Shat me-self watching Scott Thompson rack 'em up at will in the last ... but the boys held on.

Back on the WINNERS list!

Win by a bee's d$&k - 1 free 1 mark and 4 hit outs, can't believe I snuck past Robbo.

You don't know how good you have got it?

I would kill for just a single hit out - Haven't seen one since round 3

8-7 win and out of form. Reid, Smith and Shuey will need to pull their finger out next week v The Wreckers.

In fact, the changes may have to come early and they can be held accountable, won't stand for that crap and cost me % big time. Could have buried Mr Mind Games JCB.

SMaRT move that.

2.8 and 2.4 in two successive weeks has been the return. FMD. Not good enough.

HT Hurricanes brains trust need a re-think and we're 3-2 after 5.

Will listen to trades people. Several of my players on notice. Send the offers through.

Posted

5 Rounds down & Team OMR is in big strife.

Fire Sale Time before the season slips to far away.

Swanny excluded (every other player is up for grabs)

Deals must be completed before Wednesday to take effect for this weekend.

Every offer looked @ if the team balance is there I am pulling the trigger.

So far in 2012 my trading has been a disaster for myself, every player I have traded is now in the top 100, so there is a fair chance

you will significantly improve your side.

Was so happy when I was checking my matchups and saw McCauley had been put in, otherwise I rely on Stanley's 8 hit outs haha

Was watching the west coast v Richmond match hoping Marci didn't get 5 more hit outs in the last 7:35 left on the clock! Haha. The gf was freaked out when I was celebrating nicnat getting a hit out as I usually hate him!

Wow. How quickly the wheels can fall off! Well done Wacko! Coming at you this week RPFC. Hopefully Selwoods out!

Nah, thankfully the tribunal has a Star Player Innocence Card © enabled. Geelong has about 5...

Late changes are still killing me - Porpoise a late change, and his back up Polkinghorne also a late change.

If I ever meet Polkinghorne in the street, I'd hit him! It's a good thing I haven't a clue what he looks like...

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea
