    Round 9 Discussion

    Tagged this week. Last week he was in a FP most of the game. Previous week he got 37 touches but only scored 84. Frustrating :mad: Looked a good trade when I brought him in - averaging 109 with only one sub-100 game. In the 3 games I've had him he hasn't cracked the ton. Have to persist...

    Round 9 Trades

    Again would you like to elaborate and contribute or just make criticisms? I've given my reasons for my trades... would you like to give a counter-argument or just call me dumb? End of the day I need to take some risks. Yes, I could take the safe options like most but it's not going to gain me...

    Round 9 Discussion

    I tried my best to talk people out of McVeigh. Late last year he was showing signs of age and hadn't shown anything significant yet this year - he might turn out OK but I want to at least see a couple of 100's or a few 95's before I go near him. Was surprised when the boys were talking him up...

    Care to elaborate or are you just going to make a snide remark and not contribute anything to the discussion???

    Forwards 2016

    I'm still holding Menadue on the bench while he's got a heartbeat - DPP is helpful too to help move the other guys around. Waiting for an 80 or two so can hopefully get close to $300k for him.

    Round 9 Captaincy

    I'm actually tempted to go Goldy VC into Gawn C. One of them will go 150+ this week for sure...

    Round 9 Trades

    I've used my cash and gone: M.Crouch -> Bontempelli Hall -> Montagna Wasn't convinced on Tags but an easy run to come and an easy run during SC finals. Also has 10 of the last 14 games at Etihad where he averages 106.5. Bont seems to be hitting form. You might wonder why I'm trading out Hall...

    Round 9 Trades

    Thoughts on Bontempelli??? Scoring only fair but the last 2 weeks really picked up his scoring as a result of a jump in possession count. Change of role or just finding some form??

    Round 9 Captaincy

    For me this week it's Danger VC into Goldy C. I'm also tempted by Gawn vs the Lions as well. Don't have Hanners (yet...) but he's a good VC this week - always gets up for the Hawks games.

    Round 9 Trades

    22 on the field but no playing bench players at this stage pre-trades. Bench includes: Laird, Adams, Crouchx2, Wells, Grimley, Papley, Hall. Was thinking of going a week late on Keays, but named on extended bench so not sure now - would have to wait until late Friday at least for Sunday teams...

    Round 9 Trades

    Of that list, I only really see those 3 first ones being good options. But, others have come through that weren't expected. I'm certainly going 1-up this week. I bypassed Keays last week but with bad news on Beams and Rocky I'm hesitant on that being the right call and considering him this...

    David Mundy POD??

    So RL is putting Clancee in the midfield. Unusual for a coach to openly admit he's tanking??

    Round 9 Trades

    Depends on sides named. You might have Barlow, Wells and Hall all missing and need to hang on to Papley for this week - he's still got a very gettable BE so no urgency to offload him. If you were to upgrade then hard to go wrong with any of those 3 - gun to my head I'd probably go Martin...

    Round 9 Trades

    Haven't had him this year, but happily watching him bottom out so I can potentially pick him up in round 14 after his bye

    Round 9 Trades

    Thoughts on Hanners V Zorko? Thinking Hanners at this stage. Probably can't go wrong either way....

    Rucks 2016

    Maybe.... but I'm not 100% convinced on Stef. He's not getting the same numbers around the ground as he has the last couple of years. It's possible he may be showing his age in that regard - the big guys can decline quite quickly - you only need to look at Maric and Minson who are only...

    Round 8 trades

    Looks like they've actually named all 7 on the extended bench in the VFL side. I guess they need to name them there as well otherwise they can't play.

    Change your team name to Krispy Kreme?

    Injuries/Late outs

    He just doesn't create anything from the middle. Gets hands on the ball but efficiency is poor and doesn't seem to have much speed. Almost a liability in the middle at times. Try and put him elsewhere on the field and he has no impact. There's plenty of other guys who are poor are Freo, but...

    Round 8 trades

    If Dusty scores 100 he'll be $530k. Obviously adjust from there what you think he'll score. So not a drastic difference unless he pulls out a 130. I'll probably look at him next week, but I'm still not 100% on Dusty with his father issues and mental state, especially when it's dead rubbers...
