Brisbane getting towelled up and he's hanging about in fwd line a fair bit here & there - and I think he dinged his knee late last week.

If you've got him keep him; if you're looking at bringing him in just let his price drop a bit more - he's still Brisbane's main gun.

got him a while back. been very disappointed

He isn't stringing 4 quarters together. Last week he had maybe 4 touches in the first quarter and just as many in the last. Backing him in for some form in the next few weeks. And this weeks his 50th so he should be up and about.

I've heard that he's been disappointed with people adding an 'e' to the end of his surname..  :)

But seriously, he hasn't been starting games off well at all. I've followed some of his games online on superfooty and noticed that he scores very few SC points in the first quarter and then works his way into the game. The other thing that has been happening is that some teams have been tagging him which is obviously affecting his scores in a negative way.

The kid's a gun though and I'm backing him in to start finding a bit of consistency from now until the end of the season and pumping out some high scores on a regular basis.

Thought I better jump in - Brisbane 1st quarter in most games is flower and this is refelected in quarter time stats.  In all games we have lost we have been more than 4 goals down at quarter time.  I expect Rocky to spend more time in the mids this week with Blacks injury so see how it goes and he is also playing his 50th game.  He has spent most of the year switching between mids and forward. Do not know whether it was planned that way or the Coaches effort to try and get something going up forward.

He is a gun and if you look at last years scores he was up and down in the first half but really upped the ante in the second half of the year averaging 118 SC points for the last 11 games.

Haha ringo you really know how to sniff out a brisbane thread dont you.

yea i would be frustrated with him. either scores massive or porely, theres no happy medium.
and hey if they are gonna play him fwd half the time then hopefully supercoach recognises this an makes him a mid/fwd dpp next year! i doubt it though

the problem is not with rockcliff but rather where the coach plays him
