LeCras replacement

Cam DM · March 31, 2011, 12:04:23 AM

Had LeCras in a side which has a tough opponent this week. Was gonna sit him on the bench and play a rookie, but might need to trade this week. Who's the best option (got Duncan) - Grundy, Fyfe, Dawes or Zaharakis?

Can you afford ROK?

lecras is out for 10 weeks so u may as well sideways now. zaha wouldn't be a bad option but yeh if u could afford it ROK or cyril might be a good way to go depending on who else u have in their byes.

cyril looked really good against the hawks.

ha i meant the crows... it's late.

Wish I picked ROK, can't afford him now. Grundy would leave me with only about 1K. Looking like Zaha then, but Fyfe and Dawes are tempting.

Dawes look to be an interesting pick this year. i could really see him lifting his average, he has a great kick on him..

Dawes is tempting but Fyfe has the greater and more consisten upside IMO. He's looking stronger, fitter and even more of a ball magnet than he was last year. Yes Dawes can kick bags at times but he is not reliable week in week out like Fyfe will be this season, particularly with the injury vacuum at Freo

dawes has a far better players feeding him the ball than fyfe, can see dawes getting good dt scores

bundyboy · March 31, 2011, 01:51:37 PM

fyfe looked awfully composed for such a young gun - got the ball plenty, and is also MPP

pretty tempting trade for Lecras I think if you don't have him already

Bluke · March 31, 2011, 01:53:48 PM

I'd bench Lecras for this weekend and see who looks better next week.

popedelio · March 31, 2011, 03:38:05 PM

its fyfe vs zaha. Zaha i think will be too inconsistent and fyfe has worked on his fitness to play some time of the wing. Out of those 2 i would pick Fyfe.

That's part of my point about the two. Fyfe doesnt just wait to get fed the ball - he is multidimensional in how he gets the ball. I'm not saying Dawes won't put up some big scores - i'm saying that Fyfe is more likely to stay consistent because he has more strings to his bow than Dawes.
