Oh wow, that means a lot. When you've played someone let me know. Gold Coast away and a narrow win over the Bulldogs, whoopdy doo compared to matches against Collingwood & Geelong. Bring on Sunday but I admit it'll be tough, especially if Clarko's love-child is playing again. Fuck you Shoenmakers you waste of fucking space.:gun:

in other news somehow i managed to crack the 2k barrier in supercoach this weekend :lmao. even with pears getting 19, dickson getting 38 and kennedy getting 46.
Two weeks on the trot for me with Ledger 19, Paine & Motlop in the 40's and some other shit scores. Goddard as captain plus a big score from Ablett helped.

Need to take some shit out. I knew I should've kept Hawkins in at the start.

Thank you Nige! I'll sort out results (and make an executive decision on your request Mr. Snrub) when I get home & have calmed down. But first *deep breath*

Stupid fucking dud you are Shitmakers. How you fucking manage to give away a 50m penalty, let both Hawkins & Pods run wild & dominate the forward line. You did less than nothing and Zac Dawson has more fucking use than you do!

*another breath*

Lance Franklin stop being a damn show pony for a few minutes and actually play a proper game of football. You have two bloody legs and no one in front of you....so fucking run to the goal!! Don't bloody kick it 35m out in an impossible angle when it's raining! You twit! Stop thinking you're bloody superman and start playing like you're part of a team. And the worst part? YOU BLOODY DID IT TWICE!!!!

And let's not forget:
Chance Bateman and Michael Osborne - please retire. You were wonderful players in 2008. Now you're a shadow of your former selves.

I will find some positives but I still have steam coming out of my ears and I'm too busy sulking. :mad:

1980 with 2 guys not playing and little Riewoldt scoring 29. Hopefully he gets back into the century against the lolDemons

Fuck Hawthorn for costing me a perfect round as well. Marvellous second half choke job that was, and Franklin is a dickhead for going for the glory shot rather than the scoring shot. Great game though, really enjoyed watching it. Kinda good when it doesn't clash with the NRL, I can actually watch some games.

probably relatively low

i'd get on walker for a few, he seems to be allowed to have a ping whenever he gets the ball. i wonder who'll replace douglas in the midfield, possibly kerridge, but a heap of kids in the sanfl have torn it up lately. lyons had 29 touches and 13 clearances on the weekend, matty wright 26 touches 11 marks and 8 clearances. but it'll probably be jaensch who is incredibly stiff to not be playing. shows we're in a good place right now.

he's better than vince.

he's unlucky that sloane, dangerfield and thompson are already so good. plus kerridge looks to have jumped the queue ahead of him. he's a bit small still, bulks up a bit more and he should get a go. probably next year tho.

sam shaw may also debut on the weekend and take franklin. and he could do it too imo. plus crouch is absolutely tearing it up for us (westies) in the midfield, averaging about 20 touches/5 tackles/6 clearances a game. a big boy for his age, he reminds me a lot of selwood. already a lock for my supercoach next season.

What annoys me are the comments from some supporters on Facebook saying "he's only 21, he still needs to develop." Bullshit. He was drafted in 2008 so he's been with the club for 4 years and I believe played at senior level since 2009. More than enough time to learn and develop. He needs to be dropped.

On another note....where's BkB? I figured he'd be basking in their win yesterday and participating in the tipping.

Yeah much respect for the Tiges, mainly because of Richo. If Port ever folded id probably support them.

Quite surprised with Norths win over the Cats not sure anyone saw that coming, not as much as Gold Coasts come back though.

I did quite well with my dream team and super coach. Thing I scored about 1950 in my dream team and 2059 in super coach. Both wins.







port is above collingwood.

Round 3 marks the first round of match-ups in Supercoach 2012:
Autofill1 vs Top Team
Lawls' Minions vs Front Runners
Crawf's Champs vs Aussie's Thunder
BDFW vs sXe_Giants
Why Always Me vs Absolute Jobbers
Autofill4 vs Buddy > God
Rookie Power vs MightyHacks
Autofill2 vs Autofill3
Moves Like Jeggo vs HeathShaw'sBookie

It's sad to think that after this round, a few of us will be below an autofill side...
