I was tossing up on my final fwd to decide whether I get in Goodes. It was a choice between Zorko who looks like a keeper and Martin who has pissed me off all year! With him out I'd that a sign? Should my final fwd line be Franklin, Sidebottom, Beams, Robinson, Chapman, Goodes, Zorko?

Zorko is doing well yes, but he is a rookie and has not yet proven himself over an extended period of time. Keep Zorko for another two weeks then when Martin comes back get rid of him if you really want to get rid of one. Keep Dusty is my advice.  ;D

+1 But who's on your bench? If you have a fwd link in your mids or good bench cover for 2 weeks then no need to trade yet. Goodes will drop in price more anyway.

KingJB

Adams and Dickson are the bench. And yeah just getting over antsy to finish the fwd line. Patience!

Zorko is my F7.

Yeah he might drop off a bit but watching him play I don't think he'll drop off like a lot of the other rookies do - he just looks a lot stronger etc....

Keep in mind though, that brisbane played well in all but 1 game (against the hawks) that Zorko has been involved in, so when they do poorly his scores will also drop. Last week he played deep fwd for a good chunk of the game.
There is no doubt that he's talented and has potential to go huge, but being a rookie, the consistency isn't there. For now he's a good F7, but it's probably best to plan an upgrade in the coming weeks if trades allow.

yeah point taken, i completely agree! thing is i'm tight on trades so probs can't afford a different F7 and tbh, if he averages like 75-80 i'll be happy!

Yep, Goodesy will start going mental soon.

Zorko>Goodes will be up there with Hargrave/Clarke>Carrazzo in popularity...

If Goodes gets 85+ and Zorks gets <85 this round, then i think i will pull the pin!

If Zorko net's around 50 odd, you'd about bank on it if a team is still without a 7th FWD.  ;)
