Do we think Hore will get more games (assuming no injuries) or was he just keeping May's spot warm?

Doesn't look good I think

Frost was expected to make way for May, but they dropped Hore instead

KK now comes into the side, and Lewis will be returning soon too

I think we have to punt Hore

Thinking of making the move this week so I can deal with Dusty next week (will need 2 trades there). Already have Clarke and Duursma. Is Wilkie the next best option?

I hope he is, because Hore to Wilkie is what I will be doing today

Must say I'm surprised you are making rookie trades after 1 round, this seems premature. I'll most likely do the Wilkie trade too but I'll be doing it with a full 2 game sample & a sighter of the Melbourne defender who has DPP & is 102k, that could be huge for those carrying Moore.

The DPP is D/M and not D/F. Probably handy with Duursma though

Even better given I'm looking at swinging Duursma back to the mids so I can squeeze Lloyd in.

Ideally you wait. But if 2 other trades pop up next week it leaves u stuck.
For example I have Hore, Wagner, Burgess and Greene as possible issues. If I don't move on one and Greene doesn't play next week that's too many trades needed,even though I'm probably going to leave Wagner as a loop until Hately or perhaps Lockhart on the bubble.
Any other rookie dropped or injured and I'm in all sorts.
I've been caught out too many times following the "never trade after 1 round" mantra.
It can be risky to trade but can be even riskier NOT to.

Exactly

I need 2 trades next week, so I'm going early on rookies this week

And what if Wilkie gets dropped? And/or Hore makes a return?

I've just observed plenty of people dumping Balta & now he looks set for at least 4 weeks in the firsts. At the end of the day rookies will be in & out & generally it doesn't matter because you can't cull them all at once. These are the very things that come back to bite when you are left with no trades.

Rozee looking the goods as a swingman with Moore at the moment... How to get him in though...?

Mat0369

Setters can't get involved

Butters has legit skills. He is so clean and damaging with the ball

Walsh has a huge tank and work rate but has been butchering it when under pressure

Gibbons was everywhere early but is now struggling with the rest of the side

Duursma has been finding the pill and just been unclean with his disposal

Drew is the quiet achiever and has been building

Rozee hitting the scoreboard and is working over our half backs

Straight swap for Collins if you have him

Duursma 79AF 49SC at 3/4 time :o

Glad I didn’t do this and waited to see Wilkie’s 2nd game

sammy123

Wilkie scored horrible. But i guess saints won so team probs won't go unchanged

IntegralX

Hore will be coming straight back into the side next week after that abomination of a performance from the Dees.
