Travis Varcoe (Hamstring), slight strain & will miss at least 1-2 weeks

Aaron Mullett has been struck down with a fractured bone in his hand and is going to miss this weeks game.

Goes to show. This game involves so much luck. I don't care what anyone says, even previous winners. Fisher wouldn't of made a  difference in reality at seasons end. ( we all get good luck, we all get bad luck ) The thing that irks me, is, that everyone has grand plans, and them plans revolve around so much luck. I think the best coaches play it smart, granted. But they play by %, all good. If things are against them, then things are against them. And yes, i don't own Fisher

I now have no bench coverage in the midfield & forward line, and that's using my two trades to cover my losses. Desperately need one of Eddy, Pickett or Barrett to play.

Depending on teams I may not have forward coverage. Hope Eddy Plays.  The big issue for me is do I burn a trade to cover or continue strategy.  Trade would be Eddy to Parsons/Black but think Eddy with such a high B/E is worth keeping as he is nearing a recall. Famouslast words as I am sucking at SC this year.

Does Dangerfield have a slight rib injury which is affecting his scoring ability?

[LordSneeze]

Everything is so reliant on luck in this game.

I played a slightly different strategy this year, avoiding correctional trades as much as possible. This allowed me to take a few extra rookie downgrades earlier (Williamson & Hardwick) that have offset many of the issues that most others are seeing with cover.

I was planning on trading Parfitt out anyway, which will mean that I will be able to have coverage on both Mid & Fwd. Even with Nank out.
