grimes or eski

[Jimbo_11]

both of them have their byes in rounds where 3 teams have byes so you wont have to worry about cover
and i reckon they will both avg 85+ but which one to get ?

grimes

[deekay]

why pass on both?

why grimes over eski?

eski had his year last year and he will stay about the same, grimes i reckon will take cam bruces role as a dt slut at the back :)

Eski copped a few tags second half of last year as was frozen out of games a few times. I agree with LE he'll probably be same again which is serviceable but no real upside.

Grimes has had back/hammy issues for 2 years but is a classic more risk=more reward. Already considered a leader at the club and general across half back with midfield potential in addition to his cheap posie backline stuff. If he has a decent NAB I'm going to roll the dice on him again. Did it last year and he played 1.5 games for me before missing the rest of the season so gotta be lucky this time right?! ;D

yeah teams started realising it was a good idea to shut him down and when they do he cant handle the tag

This is actually a really good topic because I had them both last year but got burnt by Grimes and his injuries. Malceski has that stability for an extra 15k but as everyone else has mentioned, if Grimes can stay fit the hole left by Cam Bruce should lead to him some more points, hence outscoring Malceski. If worst comes to worst and Grimes does get injured, you should have the 15k needed to upgrade sitting in the bank you can just get Malceski anyway.
