His scores are awesome but 92 last night was a small disppaointment. I picked the guy up from the start and he has been a gun besides that one score of 50 anyone else got him?

My problem with Goodes is not him himself but when he goes forward he does
nothing and scores VERY low. Against Carlton he went forward and only scored 70. Last night in the second half he went foreward and his output went down big time.

When he plays around the ball though he dominates so seriouslly why does Roo's keep sending him foreward and ruining his scores

He is capable of huge scores with his contested possessions and ball usage. I generally think he goes forward when he has a heavy tag but he will still spend time on the ball.

I actually think it's better rather than him resting on the pine. He does sometimes struggle to shake taggers which can be frustrating but he has coped better with it this year.

He is definitely a keeper as he doesn't have to have a massive amount of possessions to score well.

Yeh picked up Goodes & ROK. Thought it was risky at the time but both are performing so cant complain. Only wait and see if it keeps going. hope so

Goodes was a must have for me, i picked him up a few weeks back when he was at his lowest price, he has since dominated. When he is on his game, he is one of only a few who can pull out a huge score capable of matching Ablett.

It's a new tactic that when your star midfielder gets tired they give him a go up foward.
