Love these!!

Might have to look seriously at Matty Sing. Filthy 22nd man he was for me.

Like the question you posed Milch re Hazem though... has bird now flown - price and points

I’m travelling alright this round, a load in the low 30s, no massive scores where I’ve had a huge scorer In each previous round don’t think I have anyone else left to come to provide that big score either so may take a back step this round

Milch where is Glenn Morrison? Is he injured

He was in the list of players missing round 4

(I will post this lost every week, but only give injury returns when i am asked about it, becasue there are always going to be a bunch of players out)

Thanks mate! Was looking for some POD players because I think Hindy will be out of my range, but just seen Morrison and his starting price! He ain’t cheap!

Fitzhenry was a big target of hate from Tigers fans when we started going downhill after winning the comp.

Was a Sheens favourite too, would never get dropped - and played everywhere. not sure if its 2006 or another year but he played 5/8th for a while

Fair enough. Yeah people playing a winger at half is not the game we’ve come to love and know.

Spewing as the lone Crockett owner to watch Elworth and Fitzhenry filling their boots out wide in those highlights

I think it’s a pretty dark timeline where Fitzhenry is relevant.

I’ve never been good at picking tryscorers and I’m pretty sure I’ll be less good backcasting 14 years

Luckily for you, you have one of the competition easybeats in your H2H today. That gronk is rolling with 16 players including Matt Bowen (and the rest of them). So even 17 30s will see you home with ease.

Who you got left mate? I’m pinning the hopes this week on Bell scores well again

I'm pretty disorganised in this thing mid-round. Let me see.

I think I still have these guys to go;

Hazem El Masri
Jamie Soward
Willie Mason
Ben Hannant
Michael Monaghan
Darren Albert

I have Shackleton in my NPR but I don't think he's playing? Or is he? If so maybe Michael Monaghan moves up into my HLF spot vacated by Todd Carney and I get Shackleton's score too? I don't know. I don't know why I wouldn't have seen that before if that were the case. Maybe I do have 17?

Anyway, here's hoping. Who've you still got left? You know your score so far this round? I haven't kept a running total but I'll see if I can quickly figure it out. Good luck, and please, take it easy on this Bowen-hindered battler.

Edit:
Oh lol, the bye. Fuck!! Forgot I had Mason and El Masri. So I either have 16, or 15 players. Haha!

I wish I could play a couple of the competition 'easybeats' while I'm still building up my team from the shambles I started with.
So far in 3 rounds I have played 3 of the top 5 teams. Which means I won't be able to catch them later cause I will have already played them in early rounds !!

Haha. Yep, sorry chaps, just realised that.

What a gronk.

Hopefully, for your sake, you face me soon for a token win.

That said, I did actually win my first round. And just looking at my score sheet so far, there's some solid stuff in there. It's just the Bowen, Turner and Purtells of the world, that I have to play in my 17, that are killing me.

Don’t worry, I win the prize of being the H2H bye at the moment lol

I think I have 15 this round after Crockett and couple others no show and 2 dogs on a bye. Not to mention big bad bustling Stevie turner

I can't remember if Shackleton is playing or not. Assuming he is, I'm at 16 for this round.

I'll match your(s and my) Steve Turner with an Adrian Purtell and Matt Bowen. I have all three and all three have scored 14 this round. How harmonious.

For the record Welshy, I'm 12/392. Ouch.

With this pack of world beaters to go;

Jamie Soward
Ben Hannant
Michael Monaghan
Darren Albert
Shane Shackleton

No idea on my running score mate I’m not that organised haha!

Think I got Shilo, Soward, Hannant, Gasnier, Bell and Douglas to go

I only have 14 this round with Johns being out and non of my NPR's playing anytime soon !
Currently 11/ 469
Stagg
Douglas, and
A.Price

Wow, even with 14 you still look destined to top my score. I need Soward to go real big to have any chance of cracking 600 this round.

Oh wow, Fitzhenry, I'll take that. Means he'll score 10 next week. TLL with a 60 too, beautiful.
