ftr in future i won't be running with player x -> take #1 fwd/mid shit. said it a few times pre-season. it's not my place to make judgments on who the #1 fwd is and when i have to i worry about getting it wrong so do a little research/edit it in once oppo submits in future. will run with it this time though p.s. nothing official but any chance players could be initialed in future? i have no idea why but it's a lot easy to set the lineup when theres a first name/initial/something. sorry to be a pedant.

Kelly is an endurance athlete btw, needs to work into games and is normally better late. Normally not the best kind of subs
Between him and Simpkin and I wanted to play Simpkin the full game. He was good but I might have to revert to Rohan, despite his good return. That or give Kelly a run in the magoos
Thrown Duryea in there this week. Would prefer to use his skills over the whole game but he's been okay in the role for the Hawks, like Simpkin.
