ive been doing my research so i think i have enough to keep afloat

valkorum · February 02, 2011, 03:55:40 PM

Thats not good. Look what happened to Shuey last year - he was out for most of the season

Talisman · February 02, 2011, 04:46:08 PM

Man that sucks!!! But, silver lining - he might turn out to be a great downgrade target around mid-season! One that will actually play and likely return some fairly decent scores - at a time when it can be hard to come across really good young rookies to downgrade to...

this cause huge a shakeup on my team, cant afford to start heppel now so it means i need to downgrade jimmy (that really hurts) to someone like wallis, start harris and upgrade jacobs too scotland or grimes

do you think this is a good move or should i jus change jacobs into another backman i have toy and talia at the moment with heppel starting.

i havent heard scotland being thrown around at all, i have gibbs but it could be worth starting both as i dont think they are in a multi bye round

sh!t, will he be out for longer than the nab? what sort of disease is this?

Talisman · February 02, 2011, 08:45:43 PM

He's got Glandular Fever - a virus that causes severe fatigue and ongoing flu-like symptoms - and it can turn into Chronic Fatugie Syndrome, which is bloody nasty!!

elephants · February 02, 2011, 08:50:22 PM

geeee sounds crap. oh well i'll look for another reliable rookie to start now.
