Bailey out -> Roughead in?

With Max Bailey's wrist going limp again - 12 weeks out minimum, will Roughy get a boost?

Any takers for Ruck 2 - and maybe F/R DPP players get a look in?

No, unlikely he will play round 1 and even if he does, his price will probably drop a fair bit. Could be worth upgrading to later in the season.

I havent heard anything about him though. Is he deffinetly playing rd1?

Not sure about Roughy but if he does drop like djcrossdresser suggests, then downgrade option looks a great option.

Hale looks most likely to get no1 ruck spot for the first few rounds so he could be a good forward line option

If Roughy gets through this weekend nicely and is lining up round 1 I'm punting on him.

I like the DPP link with Rowe and Roughy was great in the ruck last year. When fwd he kicks goals and plenty of marks.

Love it

Giles and Redden can cover during byes and I'll play Roughy in FWD if those 2 are scoring well

Won't be playing ruck, so i wouldn;t expect huge scores from him, compared to when he was rucking last year.

Avoid.
