Rookie discussions and when to cash

[Big Mac]

skipping hopper and getting rhys this week and that freo def week after

People want to bring a rookie defender in after one game? A rookie defender coached by ROSS LYON? :o

Collins could be dropped after 2 weeks and Pav sent to full back with Lachie Neale at centre half back for all we know #whyyoualwayslyon

They said they will get Collins in 2 weeks time - so when he is on the bubble

Williams this week, Matho next week and Collins the week after sounds good to me

Not Judd Magic and Holz

I didn't quote Holz?

Jabroni said that, JM agreed and I was responding to Monty's response to them

JM didn't quote Jabroni though. He changed "next week" to "this week". This, along with Holz's earlier comment, prompted my response. I can see how this has been confusing though haha ;)

[RaisyDaisy]

Ahhh, my bad lads - didn't see that JM altered Jabroni's quote

Nah I wouldn't touch Collins until he is on the bubble

Thinking I might hold onto DBJ

Will only drop about 15k this week, but then his BE will be lowish again and will start to creep up in value again

Just feel more confident fielding him than most of the other def rookies

Just after watching the last two weeks I wouldn't be surprised if Byrne-Jones was given the week off.

I hope not. Because if so I'm flowered.

I'm considering this too
whilst his 57 was underwhelming on the weekend he did get injuried in the first half..
I still have Adams, Byrne, DBJ and Tipa in the backs though so tossing up who to cull..

i am tempted to go dbj >> deledio via dpp
and brown >> hopper/mathieson via dpp

the other option is Gresham >> hopper/Mathieson
and Brown >> Deledio

Thoughts?

I'm hoping he is out (sorry wato)...only because he doesn't go down in price and can upgrade him next week to Rance.

Paul Roos has said that Jack Trengove won't play this week. Doesn't really want his return game to be in Alice Springs it sounds like.

We have some solid rookie options over the coming weeks. Certainly no crisis by any stretch.

R10: Hopper, R11: Mathieson, R12: Collins, R13: Trengove?

There is legitimately no room for him in the side, especially with ANB and Newton coming in and playing well, you'd think Roos would want to give them both more of a go

Can't see him playing next week either with Oliver to come back in

Anyone looks good playing against Brisbane. We'll have a better idea of where those guys stand after this weekend.

Yes I will bring in a rookie defender named after Ross Lyon after 1 week. 21 years old, Alex Pearce is injured for the year he is their only option in defence that i can see.

Put up a defender coming back or available who can push him out? I dont care who his coach is

Matthew Uebergang is the guy who could potentially push him out and really i dont see it. Also i will watch how he plays in his game. he obviously has to do well.

I feel more comfortable about Collins after 1 game at the moment then i do about Williams after 2.

[Grufflez]

Not going to touch anymore Freo players, only Neale is worth it.

D.Tucker has left me in a massive jam looking like he will not get another opportunity

[The Supercoach]

Are there any forward rookies coming through soon?
