Who are the rookies available in the next 2 2 weeks?

Fisher, polson, Balic, parsons who else

Williamson this week
Fisher and Long next week
Polson, Parsons and possibly Melican the week after

Balic pending return

Looking pretty grim
Possibly Ben Mcneice from the Bombers if he plays and plays well this week.

Ringo

Also Cedric Cox next week
Liam Dawson in 2 weeks but not cheap at $195k.

Ricochet

The rookies will always come. We're not even in winter yet

The rookies are coming, it's just that most of them don't score well, so cash generation is going to take longer this year

Holz

Dont like williamson

Thinking people should hold. The rookies who where dropped will come back in.

Balic fisher possible pick up next week.

My advice is dont ever pick a player who isnt getting named for their 3rd game unless it covers a donut. People who jumped early on balic will be kicking themselves if he doesnt come back in.

Just out of interest, what turns you off about Williamson Holz?

Named for his third game, not sure who he pushed out of the team but the Carlton back 6 looks pretty settled at the moment.

_wato

Yeah I don't know about the negativity around Williamson.

Bolton is playing all the young kids and he's played well so far. Yes he was outpositioned a few times against GC and a few errors but that's gonna happen in your second game. 61 avg and named as a defender mid with not much defenders coming up in terms of rookie spots. He's a better pick than Balic imo.

Williamson is only a defender Wato not a defender/midfielder.

Ringo

With Aidyn Johnson's performance last night is that the end of Eddy for a while?

So we have another rook rotting on the pine to consider not made enough to trade out.

shaker

Hoping Ben Long has a better scoring game this week I don't want anymore Carlton rookies in my team

Different players though. I think it will depend on where they play Trengove. If he plays forward then Eddy will be out, if he plays back then they need to bring in another key forward.

Mongoose528

Surely Barrett comes in for Berry next week.

john23132

Any forward options in the next couple weeks? Need to downgrade my bench desperately. Besides Parsons
