So as we are now back to Friday night games to kick rounds off, I have changed the league settings on UF for deadlines to:
lineup changes
weekly list changes
back to Friday night. This is back to what we have typically used with Friday night games.
The effect of this, is for anyone who has been making changes to their team on Saturdays you will be unable to do this from now on (except in weeks where we have Thursday/Monday games)
Also Iām assuming UF will release new position changes this week. If Jayden Hunt doesnāt get forward status I will seriously consider taking the power to decide positions off CD/UF. Or alternatively just consign him to the free agent pool where he belongs.
Only round 6 but Saracens are scoring at +60 compared to our 2018 average. Not bad considering nothing from Ward at all, and an injury or two ruining a couple of weekly scores. Hopefully that continues and maybe even gets a little better.
UF predicts I wonāt get within 140 of his lads, but I think it could be a ripper of a contest. Need to overcome a 60 point average differential but I think thatās do-able on a given week. Fantasia and Rowan Marshall back from illness will help, assuming they play.
Well he killed it in the neafl last week and theyāre midfield is in desperate trouble so maybe theyāll play him full time mid for once. Iām annoyed at myself to be honest. Too clever by half.
Meanwhile GC drop Brodie again. What farkers. Heād had two decent games. Heās such a whipping boy on their list it seems. Hopefully seeks a trade at the end of the year.
I have him in the other league, have NFI what theyāre doing with him. Feels like Dew really doesnāt like him as a player or something because he gets the Parish treatment in getting dropped straight away whilst half their team gets the Myers treatment. Hopefully he moves clubs at the end of the year because heāll be a gun, hopefully to Essendon.
Iām a little surprised that Sydney - given where theyāre at - dropped Rowbum. Sure, he hasnt exactly taken the game by storm, but iād have thought another game or two was in order, especially given Longmires comments about fast tracking development of their new talent.
Iāve plenty of playing depth this week, nonetheless, which is a nice change. Despite Willie Rioliās injury dragging on. Alarm bells always ring with foot injuries though.
