Old Bartel

[RaisyDaisy]

He is becoming quite frustrating to own, but I don't think I have the luxury of trading him

I'm already having to blow much more trades than I would like due to injuries and poor starting selections. He's just another on the list  :'(

Not starting Bartel looking like the only decent decision I made prior to round 1...

Haha looks like we're on the same wavelength.... I dodged that bullet but got hit by others.

Smart move to you both for not starting him. GC @ SS next week, hopefully bounces back with a 85+. Anything below then......

Slightly disappointing but all defenders are like a rollercoaster this year, even if I wanted him out I would struggle to think of a worthy replacement, possibly Rance but KP guys are also unpredictable. Will hold for now.

Was thinking the same thing. Rance and Docherty are the two that come to mind, but who's to say they won't put in poor scores too

I'm just leaving Shaw, Bartel and rookies down back and I'm happy with that for now considering Dea, Adams, Tippa and DBJ are doing well.

Will try and get every other line spot on first than deal with the mess that is defense last

Don't say that. :'(

They've been my two best choices.

Looks like you are the 1 of a few in SC that nailed their Def - Good work.

tempted to go up to liard but reckon he is worth keeping.

probably holding on him too long but would rather trade hard on rookie downgrades to bring in more premos.

Same, i like Laird or Doch however if he bounces back @ SS this week against GC, then I will worry about other upgrades before him. Def has been up & down this year, in saying that when you have < $150K rookies producing the same output as him, you start to worry. 

[fanTCfool]

Gonna have to hold him again  >:(

[Ringo]

Just learned my lesson with Barlow by keeping him and will be keeoing Bartel.  Bigger issues now with injuries.  Fyfe and Cutler both look like missing weeks.

Where was the PM to us on Bartel and his mate Barlow.

Started Barlow haha, happy with the last few weeks at least

[Huttabito]

Looks like he will be D7/M9-10.

Not happy, but will do. Dea, Adams, Weitering and McTip will need all of 200k MAX in 3 weeks to upgrade to Simpson/Houli/Gibson then push Bartel to D7 in the final few rounds with the final defender who in flying.

Geelong seem to be managing their players with at least one having a rest each week.

Bartel hasn't had his turn yet, so if he missed this week would anyone see it as an opportunity to move him on?
