Danger mothballed just before quarter time it looks like. Leg complaint.

Suns Lions JLT being played in atrocious conditions so need to factor that in when checking stats.

Cheers Ringo, makes sense

Will Brodie finding a lot of it which is a good sign. All contested too. Just horrendous DE

No

Though I can see merit in starting both.

Bell is soooo tempting.  If he locks down a spot in the midfield he's a shoe in.  Clearance machine in the two JLTs (which is what the Lions need).  But the second they take him out of the midfield he's useless.  That's the dilemma.

Supercoach is hard.

Two 270k Brisbane players in your forward line actually looks filthy. I cant do it

Bell 7 clearances, surely they cant ignore that

Not sure what to make of Bell - Initially was not in my predicted best 22 or emergencies but has really put his hand up with 2 extremely good JLT games.
Bell is also returning from injury and is off contract this year so is also playing for renewal.
The question however is he keeping that mid spot warm for Beams?

79 SC in 50% TOG last week against Sydney. Now 70 in one half of his next game... Christensen done little in both  :-X

[RaisyDaisy]

You raise a good point about Beams returning and how that might impact Bell, Ringo

I asked about Bell after his first JLT knock out because I just assumed he was good enough for best 22 but wasn't aware that he was playing NEAFL last year, and now he has backed it up again this week. Low TOG and pretty big numbers - 9 tackles

There's temptation to start both Bell and Bundy at F4 and F5 and go stronger elsewhere, but I'm thinking it might be best to just start one of them, and if we pick the wrong one then a correction to the other is always an option

Not ideal, but tough either way. Definitely looks like he will be lining up Round 1 though

better to go the more expensive guy (Bell) and if he stinks it up you can downgrade to Bundy
