Ahern probably needs a bit more time. Clarke was the other big hope, but doubtful the Bombers will risk putting him in the midfield until he improves his kicking efficiency Freeman was looking great until until he did his shoulder so now he's a month away. It might reach the stage where I...

Smith looks obvious, but he has gone well in 2 floggings and is in a good team where there will always be pressure on his spot. But with his scores you have to take him, although it wouldn't surprise me if he didn't turn out to be the best rookie this week. Rice has look good. Ridley looked...

2466. Best score of the year. Some nice rookie scores with Richards, Doedee and Henry killing it.

I think I'll be doing VC/C on Gawn/Grundy for the rest of the year. So reliable for a 120+ every week from at least one of them. Looking at the fixture, the only time I won't will be Queens Birthday and the round 13 bye.

Hope nobody grabbed Buddy....

He didn't get "tagged", but gee the Pies worked him out. Pendlebury and Treloar went to him at stoppages and stopped him getting first touch, although he got some nice handballs out of the bottom of the pack. He got some cheaper kicks around the ground but did nothing with them. But, Macrae...

I'm actually secretly hoping for Yeo to miss and for Murphy/Mirra to not make the finals sides. The only player from the carnage I have is Murray and I have adequate cover for him. Apologies to anyone here who's copping the carnage!!

Teams have made it obvious for me: Kelly to Danger Dunkley to Titch Midfield done. Just a couple of forwards and backs to take care of now

The other thing I haven't heard mentioned is De Goey at $450k. Is he an option?

Just some thoughts on rookies: - Phillips looks good - Cumming - was on 5 points at 3QT, wouldn't touch and if he's named this week I'd be surprised - McCartin - sneaky option if he's named again. Good raps on the kid and the Swans have a soft draw upcoming. Looked ok last week. Worth a punt...

Goldy is the other option who's not far away price-wise. Looked good on the weekend. Like the others, probably need to at least give it another week or wait until byes.

I think the horse is out the gate and about 20km down the road by now - he's bolted. There's no way he maintains this average until the end of the year. Especially with some potential tags, including double Jacobs. The only thing that might save him is if Bont draws the tag away from him. I...

Danger, Titch and Bont look the best options to me this week (but be wary on Bont as per my next post - same applies to him as it does to Macrae)

I heard Hinkley (or another Port coach) quoted that the return of Rocky would mean they'll be able to push Robbie Gray forward. Was going to tread cautiously because of that and after today I don't think I'll be going anywhere near him.

Holman on the bench :(

I chose Finlayson purely because GWS are struggling more than the Crows. Doedee was good tonight so pretty happy so far.

C is the obvious one, assuming Ryder looks good and Goldy still poor. Best for byes. Doesn't have to be week 11, potentially could hold another week beyond that or even wait for Kreuzer post-bye as well. Goldy hasn't cracked 90 in 6 games, with some easy opponents thrown in too. I think the...

Saints have the round 14 bye, so you're looking at a month and then the bye as well, so he's probably not going to play again until round 15. For me, Acres is out and it's too long to hold him..

Yeah, but I'm aiming to upgrade as much as possible and the others are worth more than Naughton. Would be happy to keep Naughton at D7 and use the more expensive guys to upgrade.

Acres out for a month with a groin injury (yes GWS.... When a groin is going to be a month you come out with it straight up). Nothing like a surprise injury on a Thursday night to stuff up your week of trade plans!! Now flipping him to Danger and taking Phillips a week early. Next week will...
