Excellent, hoping he can provide points per dollar value this week!

Apparently LDU has a hamstring injury but has been named

He apparently passed a fitness test but you never know, have heard this one before.

I'm smelling a late change or an in game injury. It happened with him last year a couple of times. Fingers crossed that's not the case because he has been amazing

Boak out, I need to tinker now

Grab Jacko and nail down cover on all lines, your forward line looks great but missing ruck insurance.

So this has been a disaster round. Thanks Clayton

Oliver's demise has been quite staggering, no love for the game anymore, I'd be steering clear if I was Geelong.

For those holding Oliver, thank your lucky stars Rozee is 410k, take the money and get the hell out of dodge before Clarry completely derails your season.

He had a very successful tag and went to LDU to try make a 2v1 and free up Viney, which worked, very team orientated of Clarry, no good for super coach however.

Max did say after the game the idea was for him to go back to racking up possessions and an end to the selfless game he's been playing. He also said we did nothing to help him. Outstanding Max no wonder the dees are a rabble.

I wouldn't be surprised to see him get back to his best but I'll also consider swapping him for Rozee this week.

It's not Clarry that concerns me, it's the team he plays for.

I grabbed Rozee this week, Oliver sits on the pine until further notice. Phillips destroyed him and Oliver just went around trying to bash into people.

He wasn't the first and he certainly won't be the last to have his game destroyed by that young kangaroo.

I liked the selfish Oliver much better, and that version would be a far more effective tool in Melbourne's team.

This was not a great week at all. I ended up making just the two trades, Boak a late out had me grab the sub risk in Brown for a small gain which doesn't help me looping down the track. I contemplated grabbing Caldwell for Boak but seeing that Boak was out an hour before the bounce on Friday had me hesitate and I held off. I also decided against my Yeo trade and backed in Rozee (who was good), but the right move was probably going Yeo.

Oliver was a flat out disaster, Salem getting subbed off wasn't great either. I nailed my captains choice at least which kept me from falling drastically in the rankings.

This week I am tempted to rage trade Oliver out. Otherwise I am leaning towards doing Clark to Schoenmaker possibly. If I do rage trade Oliver out it would move Salem to my mid bench and bring in Yeo. I may just hold for the week since Schoenmaker has another week before he is on the bubble anyway and I can't see Oliver being that horrific again (Berry tag incoming). I have 5 remaining with a 'full' side and Oliver at M9. It's not a great team at all, but I'll see if I can chip away and get some good coverage or push some underperformers to the bench over the next few weeks

Quote from: Bully on June 23, 2024, 10:08:45 PMI think Salem hurt his knee.

He was icing it but they said it was a tactical sub on the coverage. AFL Match Report is awful for injury news now, it always has nil for injuries even when players have been injured.
