If Goldy is a late out this week and you were umming and ahhing about bringing Cox before is the thought of a donut this week enough to seal the deal?
Having a big Cox is always desirable.

I was seriously considering but already have R/F DPP flexibility so I'm going to pass this time.

In my book yes...if you dont have a swing option at R3 less certain perhaps leaning no.

If I had the r/f link set up I'd be bringing Cox in regardless of whether or not Goldy plays. Unfortunately I don't. I'll never forget how well Cox played against Geelong in the NAB Challenge. He made Taylor look like a small man. Painful to watch as a Geelong supporter.

Without the DPP it's a tough call to bring him in. He may only have a couple of weeks and 100k profit in him. I'm certainly not bringing him in to R3 for the sake of 1 trade and 60 points if Goldy misses.

This is the dilemma I have. I have an R/F R3 and yeah Cox would help this week, but if he is only going to be there for 2 weeks, its not really worth it. Still undecided.

Barring injury would you say 2 weeks is worst case scenario?

Darcy "Tackling-Machine" MacPherson going well. Hopefully he stays in the team.

I think he will hold his spot as pies chances for finals are gone and today i believe he said cloke will need to earn spot back after being late out this weekend. That puts cox in for at least 2 or 3 except if gault plays stars and comes straight in after a week.

So Hopper... 193.8K make about 30k off Menadue :mad:

Job security is interesting only really Griffen missing & he has played as much half back as midfield, Hopper had touches everywhere but a very distinct midfield heatmap.

How and where are we finding some newbies to move a couple of duds on?

McPherson looks the goods for this week. I think that's why it was so important to double down last week (unless you already had Petracca). I've got close to 500k banked for a double up next week. The rookies always come around, it's just a matter of when.

Might be a couple of kids at the Saints to get a run soon the way their kids look atm, Mathieson still has to come through, there's a couple at West Coast who have been emergencies lately. It'll be interesting to see where else they come from.

McPherson this week, Hopper next.

Freeman, Trengrove still yet to play. Lee, Dunkley, Tucker, Howard to come back.
