    Round 3 Trades

    I'm thinking my best course of action is to restructure a little. JOM and Rough are on the chopping block, not because I want them to be but because it gives me a better structure. JOM goes out, Pickett goes to the forward bench so I can play SPP on field in the mids and move Florent to the...

    Round 3 Trades

    Want WHE and Houston, but no major fails to trade out. Maybe sacrifice JOM or Rough, but they'll get better. Otherwise it's Taranto and Florent, but I think they'll stay in the team and improve their scoring. Taranto -> WHE and Florent -> Houston?? Or just hold and do nothing??? Hopefully...

    If Murphy plays another great game today, maybe Hanners to Murphy and Eddy to WHE?

    Just don't think he's best 22. They have plenty of talls - Westhoff, Dixon, Trengove, etc. He was only on the bench first game. I didn't want to pick him, but everyone else was. I dropped him for Hannan this week.

    Round 2 Discussion

    On Hanners, I only watched the first 5 minutes but he attended every centre bounce I saw. Clearly different role to last week and his heat map confirms that. He was still junk though... I don't have him thankfully, but if you do it's a tough call. I think if you got everything else right you...

    Round 1 and round 2 for you. Clearly moved into the backline in round 2.

    It's purely clangers and poor disposal. He does have a tendency to butcher the ball at times. The whole Pies team were guilty of that. Amazed with WHE's score given how many times he kicked it directly to the opposition under no pressure. Maybe CD need to start doing unforced clangers and...

    Round 2 Trades

    I'm the same but I have the cash to move someone. I have Eddy, Pickett/Parfitt, Taranto, Florent in the forward line. I really would like to move Hannan in but need to pick one of the above to take out. WHE looks like he needs to be picked after last night and TT might have to make way for...

    I reckon the last 4 years the Hawks have started off slowly the first month and they have been "written off", yet still finished top 4. Not sure the same will happen this year, but still finals bound I expect. Hawks usually struggle with the Bombers. The Bombers also had the emotion factor...

    Round 2 Trades

    Hanners was woeful. Clearly carrying a niggle based on the stats below and was nothing like his normal role. 5 contested possessions 1 clearance 72% TOG (only Florent and the injured Robinson had less TOG) I think I read somewhere he didn't attend have a single centre square attendance...

    Regrets

    Need to hold tight on JOM. If you picked him to make big points and cash early then you probably picked him for the wrong reason. I thought he might average 90-95 the first half of the year and then average 105-110 for the second half of the year as he builds his match fitness. He would then...

    Regrets

    Caving to conformity and picking Dahlhaus when I could have had Higgins instead and saved $100k for the same output.

    2017 Ruck Cover

    Hope no one got sucked into the Grundy hype on here? He only started scoring well when Cox wasn't in the team last year. Cox had almost as many hit outs on the weekend as Grundy. Maybe he'll prove me wrong, but I wouldn't expect much more than the 82 he got on the weekend if you have him.

    2017 Ruck Cover

    That's the final decision. I looked at where I could spend that $100k elsewhere and couldn't find anywhere. Means I have no loophole, but I'm sure a rookie will get dumped soon enough

    Round 1 discussion, scores + more

    Murphy off to a flyer. I wanted to take the punt on him, but there were so many options.... Went without Butler as worried about scoring potential, might be a correction trade but will wait and see what he does week 2. Otherwise I only have Nank and Pickett from last night, so not much to tell.
