Hey Luke, really great to hear the positive feedback! We’re always looking at improving the site where we can! We’ll see what we can do about your suggestion in the video – i know that we have had some discussions in previous videos, but probably worth bringing up again in the second half of the year!
Personally, i have been very happy with Sam Gilbert (i initially grabbed him as i thought his move to the forward line looked promising, but when he lined up as a rebounding defender, i was even more pleased!
Got any suggestions for what you would like to see on the site over the off-season??

G’day fellas. Have just discovered you update your individual team scores throughout the weekend – fantastic idea! The site has come along in leaps and bounds this year – with the weekly video getting better and better, and the website seemingly expanding every time I visit. Fantastic work!

I’d love to see the Twitter used used a bit more frequently! :P (I’m on twitter as @luke2177)

Regarding the ruck debate, I’m holding off on a trade at the moment. I have Cox & H-mac, but as I’m all but gauranteed a top 2 position in my league – I’m not taking many risks. But if I was forced, I’d go M.Clark from the Lions.

A question to all three (maybe for the next show) – who has proven to be your best selection from Day 1 in 2009 (so therefore, still in your team and not looking like leaving).

For me, I’d say Kade Simpson. Yes, I’m a Blues man but I love this kid – I saw his upside 3-4 years ago and have been waiting for the breakout year ever since. I’m quite proud to say I’ve had him all year and whilst he’s not always brilliant, he’s put up some good numbers.

Cheers guys and again, thanks for all of your effort so far in 2009!

Luke

Tippett for me. Last year he generally only scored well in the ruck. This year he is posting some great scores up forward. Hopefully his new found ability to score well in both positions will limit those terrible scores he’s been known to post.

Looks like they’ll stick with him up forward and give Sellar a run as back-up ruck, at least while Griffin is on the way back. But if he ends up in the ruck you’d feel hard done by if he got less than 60.

For the Dean Cox owners out there, who are you likely to replace him with this week?

Mitch Clark will be coming into my side.

I quite like Macca’s team. The strategy to load up on extra bench players is something I am considering for my SC team simply because I have the money and trades to do so over the next two weeks. Your midfield and forward line has good depth. Rich is a very strong 7th mid and when you have Pav back I imagine McGlynn becomes your 8th forward. Solid cover.

Hopefully Pyke keeps playing if the Cox news is as bad as it’s sounding, but unfortunately he won’t be the guy to take you to the cars when other Top 300 sides are trading Cox for the above mentioned options.
