Setterfield will come back in for the Blues this week?

will just message Boltsy and ask

Cheers   ;D

You would think so now he has served his 2 match suspension

For what it’s worth I think he doesn’t come straight in.

Casboult out for Curnow is the only move I would be making. I’m not Bolton though so who knows.

It's a fair call, Blues have played well without him lol

Simpson and Newman could both be out though which may be his saving grace. Different positions though.

Yeah hopefully he get's back in on the back of that, don't like playing Parker (RDT)

Doesn't mean he has to play out of position, he can start on the bench and rotate through the areas they want him to.

Don't know why I brought in Lockhart. Looks like he might be dropped already.

My DEF bench now consists of Burgess & Lockhart  :o

Same bench. I brought in Lockhart though not intending to ever have to play him or Burgess as cover. Will swing either Duursma or Moore back via DPP if Whitfield misses.

I brought Lockhart in too but I did with the aim of moving him to M11 next week once I move Gibbons on and that's still the plan

Any bench of Lockhart/Burgess/Young is super dicey lol

Is it too late to jump on Ross? Currently at 191k, if he scores 75 from here he'll go up at least another 120k in just four weeks

Thought about it for a second & then said no, plenty of other rookies on offer.

Hayes looks like a classic case of drop a few 60s, get dropped and get stuck on your bench at 180k. Ross on the other hand seems safe as they come and considering I paid 190k for Sam Collins, I think it's a worthy price tag.

Interesting although 1st problem is it doesn't leave enough $ to upgrade this week. Not for me anyway.

[kilbluff1985]

2.7k ppl are trading him in and freako kinda suggested it in a tweet recently to lol

not that i am

And if he puts up a 50 (like he was on before a huge final qtr last week) then you're stuffed

Ship has sailed

At the end of the day there will be more Ross type scenarios who are cheaper, Hately, Answerth, Allen just a few who might come into contention. Aim should be money in the bank, not money on the bench. At this point I'm aiming for an upgrade every week for the next 3. There's also only so many many rookies you can cull.

Pass from me also at this stage the extra 70k that will be used in downgrading to 120k rookies gives me extra for that prem. eg the difference between Laird or Rich as an example.

Yep. Ross has been excellent thus far & well done if you got him & I don't think many of us are particularly enamoured with Hayes either but I need a downgrade he appears the best on offer so it is what it is.

[HappyDEZ]

I suppose first & foremost I hope Hayes gets named.

What's happening with the 2 freo boys Valente and Bewley? We're super popular during the pre season but haven't heard a word about them since the season started. Are they doing much in the WAFL and just unlucky Freo are playing well?

Not sure about Bewley but I think Valente had a setback, groin I reckon. Both are playing WAFL atm I think. Last I looked they got reasonable numbers. Tom North I think it is is also getting good numbers.
