Ruggles fingers crossed?

[AaronKirk]

The new players for Richmond are Jacob Townsend and Daniel Rioli

Carlton new players are Sam Kerridge, Jacob Weitering, Jed Lamb, Andrew Phillips and Matthew Wright.

Menadue, Kerridge, Weitering named. Dan Rioli could be an option to consider but would have shaky JS

I didn't mention Corey Ellis - 193k mid/fwd selected in the middle. Another to consider.

Jed Lamb sub 200k. Probably are better forward options.

I don't think I have missed any of the sub 200k players selected. If I have please correct me.

How can Morris play he is a spud in all parts of the ground

Balls... :'(

oh well broad

[JBs-Hawks]

I wish broad was named so people picked him and then got stuck with him after being dropped after 2 games

How can Morris play he is a spud in all parts of the ground

Very surprised, surely Chaplin would have been named ahead of him.

No Batch also, kinda surprised, he was pretty good last season and I'm pretty sure he's not injured, but it's good to see Astbury given a chance.

I'm alreading calling Lids, Ivan and Chappy back in at the expense of Rioli, Hammer and Morris next week.

Edit: No Ben Lennon either, what is this flowerery.

[Gigantor]

No Tippa or ruggles elevation yet, could be a minor disaster brewing :)

Jake Niall on twitter about 10 minutes ago said that Lids is unlikely for next week as well.

Should have seen that coming. There's still several players that could feasibly come in next week.

Really not surprised by that, I wasn't impressed by him. Have had him out of my side since Nab 1.

Kerridge - Lock
Menadue - Lock but possible poor JS (Do you field or Bench is the question?)
Ellis - Likely average 60-65, somewhat risky JS. Premium rookie priced. Better options out there.
Weitering - Argument can be made for picking and not picking. If going 5 rookies/rookie priced in defence he is a must due to expect lack of other options.
Rioli - Stay away as very bad JS.
Lamb - Horrid scoring potential, not really much cash to be made.

Maric, Lids and Grigg still to come into the Richmond side. With Yarran a little further away. Ellis, Rioli, Morris, Menadue and Griffiths are likely fighting for 2 spots.
