Mid: Pendles Stevie J Selwood Rockliff Fyfe Barlow Sloane JPK
Got 573k for a mid
Thoughts on who?
So who are you replacing?
Pendles, SJ, Fyfe or JPK?
Thought Jobe looked pretty sharp the other night. Nice unique.
I have to replace beams and JPK like most of us. Two trades left luckily so am thinking Jobe and Sloane...

HAHAHAHAHA, most of us are suffering with this.
I would hazard a guess and say it is JPK, as there is a chance that the other may play this week, or the next if you manage to get over the line.
I have no idea who to replace with, maybe Murphyor Jobe. Don't like the idea of Zorko up against Freo and Cats though.
How bout Toby Greene? 125 ave in the last 5 games. Plays a depleted Pies then Bulldogs to finish.
If JPK is out with Beams I'll be trading him in with either Heppell or Watson. Cant afford Priddis Barlow etc

Getting hard to ignore him. //////////////////// ::) ??? :o ;) :D
Like most of ya I have the '4' Fyfe beams jpk and pendles..
Spewing I can't afford both sloane and priddis but I can afford priddis plus a mid around 520k thinking Treloar? Or I go Sloane and have 560 odd k..blessing in disguise I didn't trade Wingard last round..must of known carnage was on the way with only 2 trades left
4, pfft, I've got six! You can add SJ and Ward to that list, although Stevie should play in a big game against the Hawks. Only got 23 grand in the bank, so I'll be looking at Barlow, Greene etc.
ATM Beams (Season) and Fyfe (TBV) are the major concerns right? I assume Pendles will be back and JPK to miss a week (max) with their minor concerns?
Think I hit all the carnage this week.
With a midfield of Pendles, Cotchin, JPK, Beams, Fyfe, Ward, Goddard, Selwood with Leigh Adams riding the pine and one trade in hand.
How many donuts will I be eating? Goddard also looked very proppy on saturday
at least 2 donuts i reckon mate
Adams to cover Fyfe and trade Beams
Not good hope Fyfe gets off Pendles and JPK play but doubt if both will yeah at least 2 but you could possibly have a very big meal of doughies if things go real bad ::)
What about mine?
Pendles, Fyfe, Beams, SJ, Ward, JPK, Jelwood, Rocky (Honeychurch, Hartung)
Can swing Honechurch fwd and bring Danger into mids, then play Pav on field as I did this week, plus two trades. Hopefully Pendles and JPK get up. I think Fyfes gone for two, hope I'm wrong.
I'm stuffed this week too, zero trades & Beams, SJ, Fyfe & perhaps Pendles. Just as well my season is over.
Stuffed as well
Rocky,Fyfe,JPK,Beams,PendlesBarlow,Selwood and KJack (Shenton, Acres)
Not to mention Bartel not 100% to come back although he said he should be fine on gameday yesterday
Obviously with only 2 trades I think Jpk and beams go but if Fyfe is out for 2 + he'll go as he had more currency.Shenton covers one of those.if he gets a game that is..oh well there is someone else worse off then me..hopefully my opponents are in a similar situation.
I've lost four and only have Viv Michie to cover. The dream is over.

Yep I'm in the same position, but some of my opponents have Ward and JPK too.
Hopefully ZOB is back this week :-\

I'll see your midfield and raise you Jackson Macrae
In a way I might come out well off from this, my midfield is Rocky, Fyfe, Pendles, Beams, JPK, Jelwood, Prestia, Miles (Crouch, Honeychurch) - Fyfe, Pendles, Beams JPK looks nasty but I'm playing people this week who all have Pendles, Beams, JPK, but no-one has any bench cover. I can use honeychurch to DPP one of my forwards in, plus two trades to use. So if 3 or all 4 are out my opponents will be striking donuts, I can potentially cover the outs ;)

Acres could be my white night, fingers crossed.
So far I have... Libba, Jelwood, Rocky, Presita, J.Martin
Pendles - maybe
JPK - maybe
Acres - no idea
Beams - Out
Fyfe - Out
So there's a real chance I may only be fielding 5 mids this week... and I have zero trades!
well this thread got well and truely hijacked lol
My teams effed. SC along with RDT.. Gone from decent positions to just screwed!! Injuries early in the year have burnt my needed trades. Onto AfL fantasy now. Those 2 trades a week are my only hope after the carnage. 2 trades may not be enough!!!!
Quote from: Ricochet on August 18, 2014, 12:59:39 PM

Add JPK to that for me, with Acres and ZOB warming the bench.
With Fyfe out for 2 weeks and Beams season who to bring into my mids im thinking the WA boys Priddis and Barlow or should i look elsewhere my mids atm are Rocky, Pendles, Selwood, SJ, Cotchin, Goddard, FYFE, BEAMS ( Honey, Acres)
There are a number of threads being started to discuss mids for this week so will be merging all into this thread and making Sticky so it stays at top.
It will be carange so lets all vent in the one thread

Gold!! :'(
Will be copping just the Fyfe donut but if SJ is out again, I will be copping two.
Midfield will consist of Pendlebury, Selwood, Barlow, Jack, Libba, Zorko lol
Bloody stupid game we play.
Can we petition the herald sun to give us two extra trades?
BTW will be wearing at least a donut with JPK, Fyfe, Beams, Suckling but hoping Bartel is back.
Yea HS should give us a bonus 2 trades for finals. I have been on 0 trades since Round 15.
For those with Boomer and don't know why he's been cited, quoted here by the AFL.
NORTH Melbourne could be without two gun midfielders for Saturday's clash with Adelaide after Daniel Wells was offered a one-match suspension by the Match Review Panel and an incident involving Brent Harvey was referred straight to the Tribunal.
The MRP cited Harvey with misconduct after a non-broadcast camera captured the veteran slamming Western Bulldogs tagger Liam Picken into the turf.
Harvey then struck Picken with a forearm to the throat.
The incident was viewed to be serious enough to warrant an adjudication from the Tribunal.

No just think of a realistic option for HS to give us.
I have Pendles, Fyfe, JPK, Ward, Beams, Goddard
Cotchin and Selwood my only fit mids.
JPK, Ward, Pendles, Bartel, Beams, Cloke, Boomer. 0 trades. Beams and Cameron will cover.
Similar to many, but avoided Ward/Goddard.
Have Fyfe, Beams, SJ, Pendles. No trades left.
Good-bye SC 2014, you were fun. Sort of :'(
Here I was thinking I was cruising with 3 trades! Can i use all 3 this week?
Hopefully bartel or suckling gets up or else there is one donut (will already be playing Scott Thomson) also have bews ::)
Then I have the JPK/fyfe/beams/pendles with hartung/Morabito as backup
So will probably just trade fyfe and beams this week and prey to god the rest sorts itself!
Hoping my opponent has one or none trades left, he only has beams fyfe to worry about
FFS!!!!! Adding Boomer here.
Boomer footage, he's gone
http://www.afl.com.au/video/2014-08-18/boomer-booked
This is only my 3rd year but surely this would have to be the worst weekend ever for sc injuries.havent lost since round 11 and now I have bartel fyfe jpk pendles beams harvey and only 2 players to cover them.stupidly used my last 2 trades bringing in harvey last week and now I'm playing an awful team who scraped into 8th and he'll beat me.

Yeh I think his season might be over but I would've thought an umpire would've seen Picken start tackling Boomer first and pay a free.
So I went hell for leather, used two trades on a down/up and smashed my way to a prelim final with a massive 2459 this week, then the whole team took a holiday and didn't show up to training...
How many donuts will people be eating this week?
No trades, limited cover (Hello! Hartung???), Fyfe, JPK and Beams guaranteed for me. Maybe Pendles as well...
thanks now i want krispy kreme donuts >:(

Mmmm, original glazed, just like the look in Nat Fyfe's eyes when his brain melted
Hopefully 0. Will have 8 premo mids, with only Shenton to cover Pendles if he doesn't get up. And Charlie Cameron covering Boomer Harvey.

Sorry mate, should have noted at the start that this is a 'non-ar$ehole' thread... ;D ;)
Jpk harvey fyfe beams pendles and maybe bartel.only cover is Shenton in the mids.
I have Pendles, Beams, Fyfe, JPK, I can cover 3 outs if needed (Roughead on fwd bench, DPP Danger to mids and play Roughy + 2 trades). Really hoping Pendles gets up...
Boomer,Beams,Fyfe,JPK- hoping Shenton plays and is not sub. Hoping Pendles and Bartel play. Have Cameron covering Boomer.
If all that happens hopefully no donuts...
Held onto Bartel last round because had Grimes as backup, but Grimes did hammy in game and is now out, so hope Bartel comes back.
Held onto Stevie J last round by trading Taylor for Gray, so hope Stevie J is back this week.
Now just have to work out what to do with Beams and Pendles....and Goddard looked like he was carrying an injury.
Ward, Beams, JPK, Fyfe and Boomer all out for me. Pendles will play.
Will need to use 2 trades and will still cop 1 donut unless Langdon or Honeychurch get a game which is very unlikely.
For those relying on ZOB, he had 42 disposals and 12 clearances in the NEAFL, so was probably BOG.
Doubt anyone is going to be dropped from the Lions' side, though.
Pendles update from Mark Stevens
Pendlebury has now left the track. Very short trot ... Barely out of a jog. Macaffer also not in main group, stationary handball
I've been out of trades for awhile now... but haven't been hurt as bad as others...
but i've got Ablett, Beams, Pendles and my only backup has been to swing Danger to mids, still got Acres sitting on the pine...!!

Priddis it is then
He said 'Bartel' still might be back either :(
http://www.fremantlefc.com.au/news/2014-08-19/barlow-out-with-broken-thumb
Barlow gone now as well
Lol it's keeps getting worse.
Like Macrae, a lot won't have him in SC, but plenty will have him in AF/RDT.
lol its actually laughable now
Id be surprised if Pendles played after reading he has only had a very light jog, season is over why play an under done player?

Fyfe to challenge his ban, not sure if its because he thinks he will get off or its just because he is risking nothing to challenge.
Carnage or genocide?? The UN needs to step in here
I'd say they could hand over the keys to the car pretty safely to the clubhouse leader

So Sloane and Priddis it is.
Priddis looks like hes about to set a record for increase in % owned that may stand for all time.
Was looking at 2 dog nuts, now with Barlow's injury it's gonna be 3. Didn't even realise he'd done it!
With Fyfe, Barlow and Beams all confirmed to miss 2+ I'll be able to cover 2 with trades with Wingard (play Ambrose or Cameron F6)... but I have to hope like hell JPK get some sort of miracle treatment.. otherwise or most likely it will be 1 donut
A little relief for those who had Macrae like me (with ward, fyfe, beams, pendles, jpk, bartel). He should play

Any news on how Morabito has been going and is he any chance for a recall? My midlfield includes Pendlebury, Beams, JPK, Fyfe and SJ with Acres and Mora on the pine. Regretting not having a DPP on the pine in the mids right now.

Mora had 26 and a goal. De Boer, Subes, Mora, Ibbo and Balla would all be in the mix to replace Barlow, Fyfe and Duffy. Ballas should come in for Duffy. Suban should come in. Then not sure on the last spot
not sure if mentioned but the AFL website has this on the injury list...

Never seen a dog with three nuts before! ;D
What sux the most about this whole saga is I'm going to lose both my cash leagues to people who haven't traded wisely and still have rookies on the field in the mids. One hasn't even got Pendles FFS! I'm sure they haven't got trades left either, but even with me using two trades I'm still left with two to three donuts, and that's after swinging Danger to the mids! >:(
I'd be interested to see if anyone has a midfield containing -
Pendles
Beams
JPK
Ward
SJ
Barlow
Fyfe
Boomer/Bartel
Bench - Acres / O'Brien
An eight man donut would be worthy of a special award, I have 3 so far and probably 4.

Fingers. toes and nuts crossed.....
6 for me too
Pendles
JPK
Stevie J
Beams
Fyfe
Acres
Yup 6 for me also
Pendles
JPK
Beams
Barlow
SJ
Boomer
I do have 2 trades so only 4 donuts, maybe 3 if Kersten and Brown play this week
Well, if we're including bench cover, I've got seven. Pendles, Fyfe, JPK, Ward, Stevie J, Beams and Hartung. Trading Fyfe and Beams. Wish I could use my third trade this week.
Pendles
Beams
Jelwood
Priddis
Fyfe
Ward
JPK
Libba
Shenton
Acres
Should be able to get 3, possibly 3.5 if Shenton holds his spot and is sub
LOL
Dyson Heppell anyone??
Is Pendles fit?
I've got Beams and Fyfe but two trades left so probably bringing in Priddis and Lewis.
For anyone with Daisy Thomas he is now out as well. Do not suspect many will but just advising.
Well it's now official, two big sprinkled donuts, Beams, Stevie J, Barlow and Acres in the mids, fortunately Pendlebury came up.
Pendles is named but is not gonna play

I hope you're wrong, but it doesn't look good.
Easy to make predictions but can easily be wrong ;).
Probably named him and seeing if he can make it through the last training session If he can, think he can get up although wasn't expecting it anyway with my current mid issues :(.

Team sheets mean flower all.
Finally decided to bring in Gray in this week. Wish I had him rd 1 D:
The carnage continues! Murf gone! Hope he's ok, but both my opponents have him and I'll take any advantage I can get this week. ???
Selwood is officially my last mid standing. My other 7 are JPK, Fyfe, Ward, SJ, Murphy, Beams and Pendles. I was ranked 200 only a couple weeks ago... :-\
am considering jobe watson as 1 trade, thoughts? is he back to full potential?
