If Danger plays round 1 I am 100% starting him. Even if he drops 150k he will still be 600k which would be so hard to trade up too. If he doesn't start it will be a really tough decision for me.

Danger did his hammy back on page 2
We're now on page 8 and still don't know the full extent of the injury

Just goes to show how important he is haha

Confirmation that we probably won't know whether he's playing or not until the day of the game.

Start at your own risk.

A low grade hamstring is 21 days. With Danger - arguably the best player in the comp - you'd lean on the side of caution and say 25. That puts him between round 2 and 3. I hope he plays round 1 like everyone. But a hamstring's a hamstring. In a sense pretty simple

It's arguable?

If he is a late withdrawal, Oliver or Parker are the only two real options to bring in. Shame J.Kelly would have just played.

If he is named he will be in my side.

You would think he is pretty much guaranteed of a round 2 start then.

Think Geelong play the Easter Monday game in round 2 ..

Since when is a hamstring injury 2 weeks that's if it's a small tear or is it a strain really does not say?

certainly I dont think Dusty is necessarily the lock #1 player in the comp. You could make a argument its Danger no doubt.

So if you're forced to pick Oliver/Parker then you have 150-200 k in bank. Say whoever u choose has a blinder and scores 130 it would really suck dropping them for Danger. Especially if they back that up with a few big scores while Danger starts " slowly"'with a few 100-110 scores.

Start all of Conigs, Libba and Arma

Once Danger is back and firing dump 2 of them to get him and keep the best one of the 3

A grade 1 hamstring strain recovery time is 1 - 3 weeks. I dare say Danger will play round 1. I for one will be starting the great man! Too much Capt potential

Interesting, could work in theory.
But if he's back round 2 (im saying he'll 99% be back then if not r1) how do you pick the "best" out of Libbs/Cogs/Armo/JOM after just one round or even 2?"Lets say Libba smashes it while your other 2 have a slow start. U drop the 2 who then have awesome scores for 5-6 'rounds and average 100, ur stuck with Libba who scores 80-85 avg thereafter. Really hard to pick who will be best to keep, and if u wait to "see if Danger is firing" u could miss out on a 150 captains score just to see who the best of ur midpricers are.
