This is for the week after this one (R12) by the way. I can see clear positives and negatives for each option, so I'm going to ask the audience.

thatguy

in order suckling, adcock, shaw.

hawks on rise and play tempo footy which gives suckling MASSIVE mark tallys. his 3rd quarter against dogs was amazing.

adcock has had 2 stinkers but been ultra consistent otherwise, and I just cant trust heater!

LEV

fisher for mine. will only get better as saints get better :)

thanme

Will be looking at getting Suckling in either this week or next. Adcock would be a close 2nd.

so annoyed with Adcock, why didnt I start with him at the begining of the year
If I had him instead of Goddard, wouldve saved me like 200k!!

i keep hearing about this tempo footy

my worry is that tempo footy is only temporary and the hawks will revert to a different gameplan, and suckling, guerra etc. will turn into pumpkins.

Thats the beauty of DT, any player can do anything!!

i think suckling considering the footy hawks are playing... and he's still underpriced a little

Got Suckling two weeks ago.  He's got an 83 and a 120 so averaging over 100 since I got him.   8)

Adcock for me :)One bad game and his price will be low next week :)

cheers for the input, definately looks like a two horse race.

still not convinved about selecting a premium from a bottom 4 side (adcock) and I have little faith in hawthorn adopting a high tempo gameplan right through to round 24 (suckling)

at least it gives me something to think about during lectures

yorgis

thinking of trading duigan >>>> suckling myself.

Fisher has had 2 80 scores when Saints won last 2 weeks the previous 2 weeks when they were flogs, he racked up 2 tons.

Fisher = likes to play loose man, so the better the Saints are, the worse he is.

lol "bottom four"

Lions to finish 8th. Lions lost 4 games by ~2 goals due to poor forward options and should be 6-3. Only 3 games out of the eight now.

Triple M commentators predicted Crows to win by 8 goals, Lions won by 7 without Brown doing anything. Staker back in rd 14 = huuuuge for the Lions.

Drummond out, Maguire out... Our back spine is shot for 4 weeks or so....

Once they come back, Lions are on the up and up ;)

Only 3 games out of the 8... not that far off!

Adcock.. He is gunning it this season
