Big shake out at Gag On This. Wildcard pulled

Crockett

If I'm not mistaken, Crockett will be coming off the bench for the Cru, with the Franks starting.

JcJVR, Nel (May)
Mealamu (Chili)
Kimlin, Campbell (Sharpe)
Spies, Whitely, Schalk (Saffy)

Giteau, Olivier, Lealiifano (JOC (James O'Connor))
SBW (c), Payne, Poki (Dagg)

I am calling this round a writeoff for me. I had to make 4 changes and I still have 3 players who are being rested by their teams who are starting for me!

 

[AkRiD]

All right, tough decisions made and the wildcard is in action.

Here's my squad

Alexander, JCJvR (Oosthuizen)
Mealamu (Ged)
Bekker, FvdM (Pyle)
Messam, Delve, J. Strauss (Todd)
Sarel (Phipps)
Giteau, Cooper, Olivier (R. Ebersohn)
Fruean, SBW (C), Pat MacCabe (Poki)

Hope the front row stands up and gets some solid figures and Olivier + Gits to step up at home. Gits has to, it's his 100th.
Also went out on a bit of a limb to bring in MacCabe, although there wasn't much on offer, unless I played Poki or kept Payne.

All in all, I'm fairly happy.

Is there a Ultimate Preview blog or team lists on the Wiki going up? I can't seem to some of the team lists anywhere.

changes are in. got lucky in that i didn't have too many guys out this week. next week i could get caught out though with the reds, highlanders, and hurricanes on the bye.

Strauss, JCJvR (Kepu)
Mealamu (Chili)
Kimlin, Pyle (Sharpe)
Messam, Vito, Spies (Whiteley)
Sarel (Phipps)
Giteau, Cooper, Olivier (Murray)
Guildford, SBW, Poki (Harris)

AkRiD - i gave a lot of thought to mccabe too but went with guildford in the end. nice to see someone else was on a similar wavelength though. i think he'll be good.

He hasn't been too bad in the past couple of weeks, playing in a losing side (although I only watched a half or so of each game). His scores were alright too, wk11 -22 and wk12-25 (all right there not that good).
At home though, I'm looking for him to fire.

 

[Moses]

I picked McCabe - had been wanting to all season..

Mackintosh, Oosthuizen
Mealamu
HOrwill, Steenkamp
Spies, Todd, Robinson,
Sarel
Gits, Olivier (c), Steyn
MacCabe, SBW, Poki

 

[royboi]

JCJvr, strauss
robinson
boric,bekker
vito,messam,whiteley
pretorius
cooper,gits,ioane
SBW(C),Fruean,poki

 

[hench]

I'll be lucky to score 200 this week.

 

[barbarian]

Taking Spies ahead of Messam was yet another great decision. Spies scores 2 while Messam scores 72, and I plummet down the ladder yet again.

 

[Newb]

spies + SBW as captain = fail

spies must have been looking for a rest cuz he apparently did fuck all against the rebs that he should have been carving up

 

[hench]

Just wondering if any of these players got on the field?

Mark Chisholm
Matt Todd
Warren Whitely

All have 0 points at the moment.

 

[matty_k]

Finally made the right choice as captain.

Wynand Olivier earned me 124 points although Liam Messam (72) would have been better.
I notched up 449 points this week.
My locks earned me a grand total of -5.
Only two of my back row only scored points and my bench player didn't play either.

 

[barbarian]

Whitely and Chis both got on, points for subs are added later. Neither did much though.

I'm on 429 with Chisolm and Whitely scores to be added. Any points are helpful.
