Dream Team Wars
Big ladder changes leading up to the first week of the finals after “Sheryl’s Saints” knocks off the “Woftam wasps” by a mere 5 points.
As a result, Jermayn’s “Germinators” takes 2nd spot after beating “Arthur’s Mongrels” by 78 points.
Greg Broughton, Dane Swan, Joel Corey, Paul Chapman & Alan Didak all scored tons with Broughton continuing to surprise (see best of 18 ). A mix of high & low scores this week somehow sees him over the 1900 mark.
Deano’s boys knocked off “Mandurah Mob” by 235 points.
Jack Grimes, Joel Selwood, Brett Deledio & Leon Davis were the ton scorers. This would be the right time to use up some trades, if Deano has any, with the “Germs” running rampant.
Ariana’s “Royal Knights” gave my “Great Izzacs” a 232 point hiding thanks to Jermayn’s beat down of her team last week. Ricky Petterd, Jimmy Bartel & Brendan Fevola were the ton scorers with only 3 players scoring below 70.
My ton scorers were Jack Grimes, Andrew Swallow, Brad Johnson, Jason Akermanis, Fevola & Mark LeCras. Disappointed in the Syd/StK players & time was against me to swap Sidebottom for Jurrah. But, I was happy with the contributions of young Hartlett & Swift in the middle. Isn’t it typical of the youngsters to score big & the bigger names fall over??
Michael’s “Dorkers” drew the short straw in the bottom eights top four by beating Johnny’s “diamond12” in the Derby by 269 points. Broughton, Selwood, Corey, Davis & Fevola were the ton scorers with plenty of Freddie Flintoff 70’s thorwn in there.
Johnny had Corey Enright, Bryce Gibbs & Jonathan Brown as his ton scorers & could be excused having a few missing, though Cox & McPharlin have been out for a while.

Both me and Ari forgot to see Johnson in the Geelong side, just as well we did not loose our games with him getting a 98!
- Im in the finals for both leagues im in. 5th & 7th for two and for the Kick2Kick league, 2nd!!
- One trade left for an injury with 45k.
- Happy with Johnson back, along with Franklin getting some 90+ scores in the last few weeks.
- Was not happy with Blake only getting 34 this week, even my ruck spot filler Pyke got a higher score – 39.
- My best pick this year would have to be Broughton. Rookie price but has only once (since I picked him up) has he got under 80…
