    Round 7 Discussion

    You Blues have had an ordinary run for a while, good to see it turning around. I would've loved Bolts to stay at Hawthorn to take over from Clarko one day, but happy for him to get his opportunity. You look like a club who loves footy again which is great. I grabbed Cripps in a draft comp and...

    Round 7 Discussion

    Feels very lucky to be scaled so high. Weren't many points left in the pie. He got about 1/8 of the points that were left, despite being 1/44 players on the ground (obvs not that simple, but does give a bit of perspective).

    Think I'll be taking it mate. I could take Gaz or Ward. Been burnt once already this year being greedy tho, bit shy this time.

    Nah I think he's a bit-part player. Might play against a team like North with a really big forward line...that would be about his best chance, but I wouldn't count on him staying in.

    Round 7 Trades

    Tom Lee got dropped last week. If you're after a defender on the bubble, Darcy Tucker may be your guy. Smith / Cox / Howard all on the bubble in other positions.

    Round 6 Discussion

    His massive 1st quarter coincided with Norf setting up their match-winning lead (12 points at q/t, 16 at full time). The assumption would be that most SC points would be weighted to that period of the game, thus his excellent score despite a (relatively) average last 3 quarters. Theoretically...

    Yeah they said that Roosy said the same thing on the radio (SEN) this morning.

    Round 5 Trades

    The 4 best defensive rookies are averaging between 77 and 96. I think that's fine in defense this time of the year. If you compare them and the price / scoring average of the popular mid-price defenders, I think selecting a deep bunch of rookies in defense (saving $, getting as good as, if not...

    Rookies 2016

    I started 2-0-6 in defense and it's worked out pretty well - Adams, Weitering, Dea and Tippa on ground, with Mitch Brown and Oscar McDonald (who i'll correct this week) on the bench. I think we may end up keeping 2-3 of those first 4 until pretty late as we upgrade elsewhere first. I've got...

    Rookies 2016

    I'm leaning towards keeping him, assuming he keeps getting a game. Their draw opens up after this week and he has hit the ton a coupla times, not bad for a rook! I think I'm in the minority around here in holding tho. Part of me holding too is Milera and Oscar McDonald not playing. Keep...

    He did just miss last week with hamstring soreness, though I have a feeling he was conservatively rested as much as anything...

    I think we're getting a bit Jacobs obsessed. Who else is running a Crowley type tagger this year, bar Norf? Who did Jacobs have today? Fyfe and Neale certainly scored ok (didn't watch the game). I think Murph could be a sneaky good pick up if he gets really cheap. I like the way the Blues are...

    Brutal hit from Steven May, who won't play footy for a month. Watch for the sneaky little push from Gaz too...

    Round 4 Discussion

    Goes with the rule of not bringing in fully-priced defenders. Do you think Tom McDonald will bounce back to his 2015 scoring? I think he'll be getting pretty cheap soon.

    One of those players who should start the game pre-bandaged.

    Damian Barrett said Selwood was "banged up and foot-sore" in his "sliding doors" column this morning; make of that what you will.
