Anyone not starting Fyfe?  His scoring is too good to miss out on, but 99% he's going to be traded out at some stage...

Not starting Fyfe. Upgrade target later in the season for me - need to see if he can actually stay on the park
I guess the problem with this is if you trade him in say during the byes, and his injury occurs R17 or so. Miss out on most of his good scores and waste a trade hahaha

True, but he's an upgrade target for a reason, and I'm sure that by the time I get to the point where I am looking to bring in a prem mid like him, he's probably already missed games and given me a reason to pass on him completely  ;D

Fyfe and Kelly are the obvious 2 choices but injury history. I'm considering canning them both for Neale and go with his consistent games played in the past. I'm already risking Greene and B.Crouch. Idk if Fyfe is wise on top of those.

I've done this, Fyfe to Neale.. Fyfe has never played 22 games, but he's one of few who could go 120+

Wait and see, but for now I've got Neale in over Fyfe.

This is the most comfortable ive been on my team yet. Theres legit only one selection thats doing my head in this year now and thats M4. How the flower are you meant to decide between Kelly, Fyfe, Neale, Dusty and Yeo to go with Macrae, Cripps, Oliver, **** and Crouch...

And which Crouch? Is B Crouch worth a punt? And what about Sloane? Genuine top 5 but can't take a tag. Or will he overcome that? Just going with the most obvious. I know Fyfe will probably lose and arm or a leg at some point but I figure I just want the best and let the rest sort itself out.

Really want BCrouch but can’t fit him in without wrecking the balance of my side.

It’s Billings + Butters mid rookie type v BCrouch + a forward rookie of which I have most.

Dusty JKelly Gaff all had career bests when coming outta contract chasing the big money... Coniglio ?  anyone

Yep, I've got Conigs at the moment

Was very consistent last year, and I assume teams will/should go to Kelly or even Whitfield

I'm sure at least 1 Giant will go 108+, and I've gone with Conigs over Kelly just because Kelly has had injury troubles

Contract theory is a nice touch too :)

His potential is still super high and injury has always gotten in the way, if he stays injury free you'll regret not picking him.

97 last time he was semi healthy and he went 108 in the back half of that season. Realistically has the game to be a 105+ so is a combination of a injured player and a breakout candidate.

Been in my team since the 2nd week of SuperCoach. Kinda annoyed they didnt sub him off after an impressive half. Need him to put in a stinker in the 2nd game. Went from 7% to 15% just from one game  >:( always has had the talent to go 115+, you cant knock that, his body is just shambles

If you factor in finals that's pretty close to a 100 average, well worth the extra $$ compared to Libba.

Does brad crouch have the desire now? Or is he still on the piss after training at the local TAB?

was always expected to be a better player than Matt.  We are hoping this year he gets the chance to show it across the season.
