WHE will score well tonight with 3 late goals but he had some shocking turnovers as well and seeing they lost think the coach will be more interested in the turnovers
Only the 1 clanger it seems which is all that matters from a SC perspective :P

It was the one really bad turnover which he ended up chasing the ball all the way to the defensive goal line and almost got a finger to it. If I'm the coach I am happy with the intent to make up for it.

Compare him to Caddy spudding it up.     Get WHE for half the salary and twice the output.

He is definitely worth getting just for the cash he is going to make and yes that was a shocker turnover but he missed targets and his disposal early was off , the pressure is mounting on Bucks he is safe for now but WHE will need to tidy it up quick

Mat0369

Bucks just gave WHE a wrap in the press conference, safe to say he is locked in the side.

Duno about you lot but all of a sudden I don't feel prepared to get the best available rookies.

I don't have:
WHE (must have?)
SPS (might have to let him go)
BUTLER (he handy enough scoring wise)
HANNAN (considering picking him this round)
MCGRATH (looked solid as well but prob out of reach)

I have:
Otten(he dropped next week I think barring injury)
Hibberd(surely he gets dropped this week?)
Taranto(would wanna perform other easily becomes WHE i guess)
Simpkin(won't score well at all could become Hannan this week)
Parfitt(he is solid and think cockatoo out keeps him in the side he will play but not sure on scoring)
Pickett(is pus)
Barrett(will be fine)
Stewart(fine)

WHE is a must so I'll get him next week

And then I'll probably grab one of Butler or Hannan, but if Hannan comes out and scores 60 then I don't mind if i miss out on both tbh - they're not musts, but if Eddy and Pickett score shower again then I will trade one of them to one of Butler/Hannan

Happy to hold Otten and Hibberd til the week after at least - Newman, Long etc could be options later

No nee to panic at all

Mat0369

Thing to worry about with Hannan, he is named on an extended bench with Kent and Ben Kennedy. If Kent is ready he could be in next week for Hannan if he has a poor one. I would hold off a week on that one.

Not so much panic but I'm in a highly disadvantaged position I feel for cash generation.

If you were to trade anyone this week to pick up one of these rookies who would you be going for?

Mate of mine who is a die hard Dee reckons Kent and Tyson come in for Vince and Smith, but then obviously Vince returns the week after so wait and see. Wouldn't be grabbing Hannan this week that's for sure

I agree good call.
