I am starting him. Swans have confirmed he is right to go on their website.... they usually are conservative with injuries and won’t play he unless he was 100%
They are playing franklin underdone and played Kennedy underdone for years

Agree mate, I just feel horrible trading one of Whitfield or Laird out of my side and then rolling with whoever survives with Williams and B.Smith.

My team would have been 10x easier to construct with Mumford not doing Coke and getting suspended...
Agreed! I've struggled with it but I'm going in without Laird this year. Too much value in the backline to ignore.

Re : Tim Kelly, he was interviewed by the Geelong Advertiser this week and said something like:

"Last year I was split 50/50 between forward line and midfield. I've done a lot of work over the preseason and the plan is that I spend a lot more time in the midfield this season"

He's been sitting at F3 for me for a few weeks now. He expects to play more midfield, he needs to play well to get a big contract at the end of the year, and Geelong need him to be as prolific as possible to push his trade value up. It may be a little bias coming through on my part but I see him as a super safe pick and a top 6 forward.

If you had to pick one - Heeney.

I’m basically down to F3 as well and don’t have a heap of cash left. I’m leaning Boak vs. Billings. Thoughts?

Unless someone has another suggestion that’s $480k or less.

That means i have 4 forward premos all in the same bye round lol
Yeah I have 3, it doesn't work well but if you can fill that void in other lines it shouldn't matter too much. In that same bye I have 1 ruck, 1 mid and 1 back missing, 6 premos missing in any given bye round would be fairly standard

Parker looks like he’ll at least get games. Cross Cavarra off for now, didn’t see him in the JLT and has since picked up a quad injury. One for mid year. Petruccelle, Burgess, and Balta are the other names getting around (going to assume you have Setterfield and Drew already)

I’m down to one decision...

Dunkley, Balta and Zac Clark (assuming named)
vs.
Billings, Darcy Moore and Patrick Bines

Thoughts? I’m leaning option 1

Cavarra out for 1 - 2 weeks according to the injury list.
I think its not going to be too hard to choose 2 bench rookies out of Balta, Petrucellle and Burgess.

I think I need someone to talk some sense into me but is anyone considering Tom J. Lynch now he has been named for the Tigers?
Only 425k at a very competitive team, has average 90+ at the Suns in the past. In only 3% of teams could be a great F3 point of difference?
