Definitely considering going Newnes > Smith next week depending on how things go. Sure he can find the ball and tackle, but he can't do a bloody thing with it. Twice kicked it to collingwood players right in front of him, as well as barely hitting targets or juist booting it anywhere

Has to be considered, especially if Smith misses tomorrow..

I'm going Newnes > Brown and then use the cash to turn either Cripps (depending how he goes) or Lonie to Swan.

Have $62k in the kitty.

Will just play Oxley on the ground who is scoring more than Newnes anyways and put Brown on the bench.

B - Higgins, Lumumba, Hunt, Saad, Oxley, McIntosh (Brown, Goddard)

Would rather use the cash to get Swan in at F5 or M6 before he goes up in price too much more.

Already have Bonts.

Yep, get Swan ASAP. Considering Newnes cost about the same it's a travesty of justice.

Sure have. LOL!

3 were necessities though.

Lamb > Bonts (round 2)
Ablett > Sloane (round 3)
Miller > Van Berlo (round 3)

The other trade was Goodes > Hunt (round 2) when I found out Goodes was the sub.

Happy with all those trades so far.  8)

lucky

newends doesnt look like he will be a keeper this year, and tbh would much rather have oxley on feild. I also rate byrne i think he will be a good scorer as well so I am keen to trade newnes to byrne then jump on one of the fallen premiums ie: gaz, rocky, beams etc.

Newnes to Whitecross could also be a winner.

Forgot about Whitecross.

He would be way better than useless Brown. LOL!

Will see how he scores this week.  8)

I didn't see much of the game but saw his stats. Killed it in DT again but his SC scores suck. The only thing that explains it is disposal, how is he that much of a butcher?

I love this, look give this kid a go. Is averaging nearly 80 over the first 3 weeks and has played shocking. He'll come good. He is to good of a player not to. Have some faith and patience!

I don't think he is "too good of a player not to"

I can excuse 1, even 2 ordinary scores, but that's 3 matches in a row of constantly butchering the ball, giving away free's etc

Glad I didn't start him, but if I did I would be trading him out for sure now. 435k for these scores is not good enough

Wet game. Lots of players getting clangers. I am keeping.

Frustrating for sure.. but geez he can find the pill.. just needs to tidy up his disposal big time..

He lacks awareness and composure, you can't teach that. Guys like this will struggle their whole career, he's good for an 80 average but that's about it.
completely disagree. He's been thrown higher up the ground where the footy isn't always in front of him. composure in traffic will come with more time in that role. before this year he was rated as an elite kick,  you dont lose that completely over night. He'll be fine
