What to do with Irons?

Swan, Bartel, Boyd, Anthony L, Swallow D, Harris D (Irons Atley Hibberd (MPP Link)

Got 99k in the bank, and 22 Trades, both used for LTI.

Do i trade irons for libba as it looks like primus may be sick of him already?? Or wait and see how Wallis goes? Or other thoughts?

Yeah thought of this one too, figured that would be an after next weeks problem tho.. so looking if have to make a move before the lock out..

Irons has been dropped to the rookie list, unlikely to get another game this season unless theres a LTI. Bring in libba.

Leave him to rot as your 3rd interchange. Nothing gained nothing ventured.

where'd you hear/see this? i realise he's listed as a rookie on the port adelaide website, but he was listed as a rookie there even when he was playing in the first 3 rounds

i ditched irons for iles, was just sick of looking at his name lol, can't see him getting another game this season while megahead ebert and hitchcock are in

Yea pretty sure he isn't back on the rookie list just dropped. Will hold him in hope he plays atleast till someone decent is on the bubble

+1 he was just dropped.

plus i think he will get another few games this season as ports team is actualy pretty crap and this week may be their only win for a while... hence they will rotate and give kids some games.

A tossup between Libba & Polec. I guess you could look at it this way: if you want a replacement this week, go Libba. If you don't need it this week, go Polec. Some doubt about whether or not Libba will start this round (Wallis confirmed to play) and you won't know before lockout, too. But he probably will. I'd go Libba - just.

Irons has been downgraded back onto the rookie list. Lobbe has been taken off of the LTI list. Port announced it via their twitter page a few days ago
