I started 13 keepers, plus Lobb and Arma. Of those 13, only Laird, Titch, Fyfe, Gawn, Buddy and Heeney have been good

Put a line through Buddy now

down to 5 survivors from 15 total LMAO  ;D

For everyone that has the remaining 5, I apologise in advance for what will eventually happen to them  :P

My thinking:

0 weeks - of course keep, but I don't think this is a realistic chance of happening (I'm still optimistic though).
1 week - keep, and focus on trading rookies such as Fritsch and Garlett to G-Langdon and Guelfi as it's much better long-term.
2+ weeks - trade, either find the money to upgrade to a Heeney/Gray or grab some cash by taking a risk on someone like Deledio.

Great roller coaster. Pumping out big scores when he's in so gotta stay the course with him.

His DPP makes it easy-ish to cover for him too.

How does his DPP link provide any help when trying to cover him at the moment? Who do you have that is playing that can swap with him, because like most people I got Keeffe but it's no good when he's not playing either.

Means I can trade Bonner (was going to anyway) swing him back and bring in Guelfi. Cover him with Coffield/Banfield/Crowden.

If he was fwd only I'd probably be forced to trade him.

Though I'm sure others will be using him differently.

Just that Keeffe allows you swing Sicily around, so you have the choice of both def and fwd rookies to cover Sic.

So are you thinking of trading Keeffe to a G-Langdon/Guelfi/Mirra?

Looks like I am playing Guelfi, and Crowden at F5/6 this weekend

Just watched the incident properly then.

It's so trivial what he does that it should honestly be thrown out and dealt with personally by the club.

You'd get a worse graze sliding for a mark, no impact on Atley whatsoever. North appear to have complained to the AFL just to get Sicily suspended. I know he's a flog, but honestly something like this could even be dealt with via an exchange of texts or something. No worse than what Zorko did tbh, and they don't give out weeks just because someone's not a good bloke (or do they? ???)

Stupid, yes. Bad look, yes. To quote Chris Scott defending Duckwood though: "Is that really worth a week?"

(Watch Duckwood get let off tonight, and Sicily get 3 weeks+ ;D)

Edit: Always get the Scotts mixed up...

Atley apparently spent a long time on the bench following the incident getting his ankle etc checked out. Dont know what that means for Sicily's chances but its more than a graze I'd say.

A little trick that may help is the shape of the initial letters
C - G as Chris - Geelong (curved formations)
B - N as Brad - North (formation of the letter begins with a straight line (l) N B)
remember that and you'll have no problem haha.

North = Bad = Brad (both B's) is how I remember.

I just remember that Chris is the Cats coach. Therefore Brad is the other one. Lol.

Hearing is happening right now

Sicily pleads guilty, arguing for one week
James Sicily has plead guilty to the charge of serious misconduct. His advocate, Peter O'Farrell, will argue for a one-week suspension

So he's copping at least 1 now, FFS

Sicily and Buddy on the pine next week, with Venables, Fritsch and Henry I'm going to need to pull something out of the bag here!
