Tom Rockliff today has announced via twitter that he will return to the Brisbane Lions line up this week.
"To all you fantasy/dreamteam/supercoach fans who keep filling my feed the answer is Yes"

The question now is... Should we lock Rockliff into our teams this week? Or do we hold off and see how his ribs hold up after one or even two weeks?

I'm interested to hear your thoughts.

Once bitten, twice shy.

I'd love him back in my side. I just don't have enough trades left to allow one spare for him if (when) he goes down again.

The best case scenario looks great but the worst case scenario looks very ordinary. Especially for those who like me had Rocky twice already this season and those who have burnt trades on Sloane twice aswell!

I just don't have the trades. But if an injury were to happen (touch wood) I would look very seriously.

I've budgeted for Gaz in and Oxley upgraded with 4 trades to spare. This leaves Cripps as M8 though. If cripps doesn't get up this week then I may look at a straight swap for Rocky, against my better judgement.

Got a feeling it's closer to four games missed (three and the bye, really).

I've kept him in my team, so I'm hoping he'll go well!

If Rockliff scores a 110 for example this week, how much will he go up by?

I'm getting back on Rocky probably, will be he 2nd stint in my team. Original plan was Sloane to Gaz in 2 weeks, but now I'm going Sloane to Rocky, then one of Cripps/Swallow/Griffen to Gaz. I'm in a good spot and haven't taken too many flyers, so I'll roll the dice on this one.

Right move especially if you've got a little cash/trades tucked away Imo,

Think going Wallis to Rocky myself,

Somewhere in time
I went Watson to Rockliff.
Have traded Rocky into my AF, RDT & SC teams so I hope he plays every game for the rest of the season and scores well.

Rockliff is a tough unit both physically and mentally. Hopefully he has not further accidents, though!
