I would think it would have minimal effect on him. Business as usual although you would be hoping for a bit more than he scored in rd 1 last year.

Lids and Bennell out for R1 seems Dusty or Barlow now to me, strong lean to the latter at this point.
The boys on DT Talk chatted to Nick Maxwell in their podcast today. He's part of the leadership program at GWS these days and interestingly he mentioned Greene might be used for lockdown roles at stages (even if it's just for a quarter or two) during the season. Not sure how much weight to attach to it but thought it might be of interest to some people on here who have asked about him.
I find it hard to believe he'll be used in that role this season and I doubt Maxy would know much about the actual gameplan etc. so I'd be inclined to take it with a grain of salt
Are we really going to listen to a bloke who base his playing career on spoiling marks?!! #thefist
hmm yep. Both the 29 (v Norf) and 168 (v Saints were in 2014)
I have almost put him in my team
Hey guys, first time on forum and just wanted to get opinions of Greene vs Hall. Didn't get the chance to watch any of the nab games this year, so finding it hard to judge based on gameplay. Currently I have Dusty, Barlow and Greene. Would it be risky to switch Dusty for Hall?
Hardly the smartest bloke getting around, I wouldn't listen to a word he says
I played cricket against Devon Smith once, he was given out caught behind on about 20 and refused to walk off and for some reason he was allowed to continue batting. He went on to make 150 in a 50 over game. Shit bloke wouldn't give him the satisfaction of having him in my supercoach side.

Corey Ellis named in the centre square and Menadue on the bench.
Tempted to take the punt on Ellis, only $193k and was a high draft pick so must have a bit of talent. Thoughts?

Very talented and skilful. Depending on which other rookies are named, we may end up taking both of them.
Opening day jitters...
After listening to the podcast this morning, I'm very strongly considering ditching Dusty and upgrading a rookie mid to a premo. Currently have both Kerridge and Kennedy in the mids with Mills at M5. Would love to move him down to 6. I've been settled for the best part of a week but Dusty is really starting to concern me. I know he will be top 6 but also pretty confident we could get him at 500-520k pretty early on. Decisions decisions!

I think that move would pay off. Generally Dusty is known the throw the odd shocker in here or there so I'm absolutely certain you will get hime on the cheap. Not to mention the value is in the fwd line this year IMO. I think 3 rookie mids on field is too much of a risk. I've decided to start without Dusty this year for the first time in ages, only because I see a lot of value in the fwd line and the midfield rookies aren't exactly enticing to start on field.
