Mathieson questionable, and now Gresham has only come on in the 2nd half to get half a game

Things are getting diabolical in mids

Bennedy a lock though

What mid rookies are a real chance from here?

Mills, Gresham maybe, Davis maybe. Who else?

Might need to play Menadue and or Bennedy in the mids and bring in Kommer etc up front.

Pretty much what you will have to do, bring one of the fwd rookies into the mids.
Also , Is mitch mcgovern any chance or no?

Gresham hasn't looked too bad since he came on, but we might have to wait until round 1 to see who's named.

Clayton Oliver has been okay today too.. Might need to figure out a way to fit both him and Mills in if no other rookies pop up

will be tough 400K on 2 rookies is awkward

Very very tough, but JS and lack of other options might force our hand.

I'm sure other options will pop up when the round 1 teams come out though

After this weekend the only LOCK is Kerridge. Hopefully the last game of the day will help me LOCK in guys like Brown, Hartley, Tippa and Kommer.

I think there are several more locks. Well, there are several more guys i expect to see line up rd1

Menadue, Bennedy, McCarthy, Adams and guys like Gresh, Broad, Davis and all the Bombers are still our best chances

I think they are mainly talking about mids and as you have justv stated only Menadue, Bennedy, Gresh and Davis it is looking pretty bleak

RaisyDaisy

Yeah mids is tough, especially if like me you don't want to start 200k rookies

I'm thinking Menadue moves from forward line to M8, then I'll have Gresh, Petracca and Davis on bench

Bring in Kommer or someone into the fwds to replace Menadue

From Jock Reynolds " Mitch McGovern, the younger brother of Jeremy in the west, looks to have picked up his brothers’ penchants of both being rather good at this sport business and finding ways of making me want to select him."
currently sitting on my forward bench due to my fwd rookies going to mids

I've had both in for ages, much rather have a couple of expensive rooks who have pretty solid JS, and both have shown they can score. Brayshaw, Heeney, Cripps last year remember... I think we all just need to readjust to the fact that high draft picks are expensive now when they weren't before.

The only good thing from all of this is the DPP link-ups Forward now.
