Can you imagine the chaos if one of Goldy or Gawn go down?

no joking about that please

For people that have nicnat, Goldy Gawn is the only viable ruck combination now isn't it?
The rest of the rucks are just so way too far behind, like 20 ppg

Scott Lycett? Averaged 95 until round 10. Not liking the 38 from last week though.

Just looking for a pod

My sentiments exactly Holz, those statements are better left unsaid. We're all thinking about it but nobody is game to say it for fear of the dear sweet lovable endearing wonderful footy Gods complying with the statement. :P

If one of Goldy or Gawn gets injured it will be game on, my money would be on Sauce Jacobs, reckon he's the only one who can get back to a 115 average.

Mummy could have a pretty big impact too - his brittleness is really the main thing keeping me away

I'm still keeping faith that Stef Martin can turn it around.

Fingers crossed with no NicNat this week West will be dropped and Martin can go back to being the lone ruck, a position we know he flourishes in.

I would expect a week off over the byes will do him some good after that knock he had a while ago too.

He's too good not to turn his form around IMO

My thinking is that it's a prime opportunity to trade Martin for Gawn, my team has sunk because of him and with many using a trade to get rid of NicNat it leaves me even in terms of number of trades used on rucks.

I should say, I am too. It's not ideal but I believe it will work out okay with a bit of luck. And realistically even though I wish I'd started Gawn and he's playing like a legend, he doesn't really command the trade in my eyes until he fixes his standard deviation a bit and gets rid of those low scores and tendency to disappear in games

I have faith that Stef can turn it around but no faith in the coach , I just cant see any benefit in what he has been doing with both West and Stef  :o

Question is does anyone whst exactly has been the game plan for Martin? CHF, floating FF/CHF? With his all round ability, you would think he could play the NRoo role to perfection.

As said previously, its nicnat, Gawn and Goldy then daylight. Im a huge fan of the POD but when that player is 15-20 ppg behind, its not worth having them.

Sadly, Nicnat to Gawn is the only trade you can make this week and expect to stay ahead.

If West was dropped, Stef Martin might go close to those three but that ain't going to happen.

Goldy comes into my side this week for Nic Nat

Has Jacobs ever been a decent SC'er?  He's got a 5 game healthy average in DT, but not sure of his SC history.  At the moment I'm bringing Gawn in this week, but also have thought about holding Nat for 1 week and turning him to Jacobs after his bye.
