What do you think? Bank Fyfe's 120 or gamble on Tich?

I could see both coaches letting their midfields just going h2h and turning into a shoot out.
I honestly don't see it being a very defensive game.

Did Bonner do enough? Was hoping he'd either score 60 and I'd avoid or score 90+ and be an easy trade in. 76 is a bit in between...
Probably. The role was right. He was rebounding off half back. If you’re in the need to make a move in backline, I think he showed enough.

Rookies being rookies. Have Ryan from west coast and Murphy Adelaide on the bench this week. An extra 60 points on the pine

I have Ceiren Burne has not been scoring well although he’s coming back from a reco so would get better as games go on only thing is he now has a quad injury which he’ll get scans for perhaps this could be a good reason to corrective trade to Bonna ?

hibbered to simpson is looking likely for a few people I think. Hibb not taking kick ins, his role is not settled, often playing up on the wing a bit. Hell dees aren't even using lever correctly either. Def a worry

Luke Dahlhaus is driving me nuts, he looked terrible yesterday just doesn't have the ferocity for the contest that had a couple of years ago. Really considering moving him on this week as I don't want him as a POD all year :confused:

I reckon hes shown enough with his role, if he averages 85-90 its a huge win and a cheap upgrade to a fallen premo like Hibberd later on. He's gonna have the odd lower score I guess

Undecided on Bonner. I have one guy who definitely needs to be traded out this week, then a few who are in consideration to come in (Bonner, Simmo, Ryan).

There were a few others who I've been watching (Petracca, Parker, Acres, McGrath) who did well week 1. I thought they were all ok, but none of them really screamed "must-have" in round 2. To be honest, out of all of them Acres in the forward line looks the most appealing, especially if the Saints are going to improve from their dismal display this week.

So what do we feel about Danger? 130 not damaging but good if you have him.
Thinking of trading crouch for Titch, who is )$100 k cheaper than Danger

yes great game -also disappointing result but at least we didn’t get smashed.
Got 2336, not too bad wth Crouch going down.

Cracking game today. End to end and high scoring, reminded me of the good old days!

Ended up on 2404. Looking to move Hibberd on but everything else is going ok so far.

Scored 2331 with Hibberd being my main issue. Possibly my only trade for this week.

I just came home from the Easter Monday game, but I’m a Hawks fan so happy but my nerves are shot!
Same issue as me, ended with a 2361.

Was thinking Sicily in for Hibberd until 2 hours ago, now I'm not sure. Maybe Shaw, maybe Simpson, maybe Hurn.....or maybe no one and save the trade.

I also wish I'd started Coniglio and Titch but I dont really have any mids performing bad enough to warrant a trade out.

All in all not sad with my first 2 weeks, but not super happy either.
