Brought him in for scores of 59, 82 and 70

Will now be 495K BE 145

Should I cut my loses and trade him to Rocky next week (if named)?

Not sure what changed from his first two games back when he went large, I watched him closely tonight and he was around the play a lot, both ends of the ground but just didn't get his hands on it.

HotTiges

yeah he's been ordinary of late.. i'd be tempted if I had the trades but I reckon just ride the wave, you'll get 120-130s out of him soon..

PICCOLLO

The old chestnut of players going premium then dropping back the next year.

Probably hang tough for at least one more, until you know Rocky is fully fit and firing.

Adams and Crisp have definitely taken his pure mid time away and because he is so damaging with ball in hand, he will play that outside role for the rest of the year you'd think which will come with some huge scores but also some very low numbers when he doesn't get it. Very juicy to pick up I might add.

Yep, his inconsistency makes him a risky starting mid now I feel, but if I could somehow jag him as M9 cover/loophole for 450k I will for sure

Just like all my picks this year all spudding it....!!  hate this game!! lol

what makes things worse is if Levi Greenwood comes back in i can see side pushed down to a half forward role...

I feel your paint mate, i got him in at this time & have lost a fortune in dollars, poor scores have also contributed to leaguie games losses - I'm thinking of trading him to Rocky upon return, or hanging onto him as bench cover then some how loop holing him & Lewis (Another muppet)

Your 100% right about this, with Greenwood also returning could make it even more worse. What also annoys me even more is he can't even bolster his poor scores by tackling due to his dodgy thumb.

Started with him as a POD until he got injured and brought him back in for these low scores. Not a lot I can do with low trades so will keep him. I also have muppet selwood this year so maybe loophole both as m8/m9.

ronl

We all thought Selwood would come good - that's obviously not going to happen!  I fear the same will hold true for Sidey...although part of me is very tempted to put it to the test.

im gonna bring in Gazza and push Barlow as an M9  ;D

Bully

Seems to be back to his best, only 488k with a BE of 60. Need a mid under 536k and he seems to be the best available. Thoughts?

HotTiges

considering if Selwood is out for 2+

Aidans Blues

Weighing up him and Rockliff.. Don't have enough confidence in rockys body.. Can't afford to trade him out again. Leaning to Sidebottom

Judd Magic

Is Sidebottom back to premo scoring?

If Greenwood is back this week will that affect Sidebottoms scoring?

What was the reason for Sidebottom scoring so poorly in round 10, 11 and 13 for?
