Cant believe i am writing this after the pain he has caused me.. BUT.. If he scores ~90+ this week, is anyone considering bringing him back in as F7/M9 cover?

Would only cost ~$30K to trade Guelfi to him

I'd consider it, because Fritsch to Billings would actually net me cash too lol

I was never as dirty on Billings as most were - it was his position that killed him

That said, I'd probably need to see another 2 games before seriously considering going with it

Have to disagree there RD.
It wasn't his position, although it didn't help.
He played fwd most of last year and averaged mid 90s.
His attitude and form and confidence were WAY down. He didn't want to get his hands dirty, sulking at the back of packs looking for cheap handballs.
Why do u think he was dropped??

Yes,the coach should have put him in the mid rotations earlier, but can't use that alone to account for his piss poor form.

RaisyDaisy

Yeah I'm not saying his attitude was good, but I can understand how it would have dropped week after week being played out of position, not getting involved etc and how that can impact his mindset

Either way, when he is playing well I still think he is a good forward selection

Guess we'll see how he goes for the second half of the season, but he wasn't putting up 90+ last year just playing forward - he was up the ground a lot too

Call me crazy but I'm seriously tempted to swap Liam Ryan to him for my last upgrade with the little bit of cash I've got in the bank

Hes back to playing through the midfield and being given space by the opposition, he gets a lot of the footy when played through the wings, he's super cheap and is now a POD.. It's actually a little scary that it kind of makes sense to me.

It would mean I've used 5 trades in total on just them 2 players LOL I've burnt through trades this year with injuries I'd only have 3 left if I were to make this trade.. I'll be limping into finals by the time they come around. I think I'll take this risk.

Don't think I've ever hated a player in SC more than Billings.

Haha! I unloaded him early, so not hurting too bad, but along with Sicily, he was one of my first picked this year. They both hurt early for different reasons. Cheap next year? Who’s game?

enzedder

Winning team frontrunner.

SilverLion

As was always going to happen,he has turned it around ever since I traded him.

99, 96, 77, 125ish

Flower him. Never picking him again. Ever.

RaisyDaisy

Nice POD for me next year I guess

Just hope he stays under 400k

Adamant

Mark my words, everyone will pick him next year.

Bill Manspeaker

like any outside player, he'll score well when the team plays well, and he contributes to that. I love him and I love when people get pissed or hate on him, ie ubeat

favourite player. keep it up Jacky

Billings the teaser.   I was huge on him stepping up this year.  park him next to Dusty.
