Aaron Sandilands Thread

How come at the start of the year when every was considering at dpp bench ruck no one considered Lobbe is only 12g more then tippet and Gold Coast have Fraser and Zac smith?

Lobbe was listed as an 8-10 week injury from memory at the start of the season. Outside of that, I don't think anyone bothered to do the research to find out Tippett is on the rookie list for Gold Coast! But regardless Lobbe was always a better chance of a match this season so I've been lambasting myself for starting with Tippett instead of Lobbe at the start (although starting with neither was the play...).

well, in my case I had 300$ left over from my salary cap... :P

cox / sandi / smith / tippet for ruck with DPP Petrie - plenty of cover and with Lobbe on LTI - spending extra on 4th ruck who was never going to even play was just not required.

even with Sandi down, this combo still works fine...

so that's why Lobbe wasn't in the mix.. ;)

Get goldstien in for Sandi

Yep, and swing Petrie into the rucks...

The only problem with that is first week of the finals you lose both Goldstein and Petrie, might cause you some issues...

Heh, yeah dunno how I missed that... I'd go Cox or McEvoy then... Bailey/Petrie should be fine to cover for byes.

Does anyone know how long the big man is out for this time?

[Problems]

Minimum 4 weeks from what I've heard

"Fremantle ruckman Aaron Sandilands will not require surgery on his injured left toe but will still be sidelined for up to four weeks after consulting with a specialist in Melbourne"

I've got a good feeling he'll be back 1 game after the bye, i.e. 3 weeks. But as long as he's back before Petrie's bye, I can hold him. Just come back with a bit of form and don't get injured again, Sandi!!

[Wes Mantooth]

Long enough for it to matter.

[GoldDigger]

If / when Sandi returns, how important will he be for fantasy teams?

[Wes Mantooth]

lobbe wasn't in the mix because his form in the sanfl had been crap!

Alot of teams are hanging by his big toe, that's for sure!

Hey guys

11T 22.7K
(Just traded Lower->Fisher) But i am stuck on what to do with Sandi.
Options are Cash up with Lobbe. But whats his JS? I think of it as get a quick buck with the two byes coming up then upgrade later to premium ruckman, or just keep Cox and Petrie and hope Lobbe plays round 21.
Or get Mcevoy? or others dont want goldstein as i will have two kangas players so i will be screwed rd 21 in rucks again
Might add only going for League ranked 19,380
team is as follows:

DEF: Gibbs, Deledio, Enright, Fisher, Goddard, Hibberd, Otten

Puopolo (E), Toy, Howard

MID: Boyd (V) Pendlebury, Mitchell, Swan (C), Ablett, Montagna

Harris, Bewick, Jacobs (E)

RUCK: Petrie, Sandi

Cox, Derick

FWD: Pavlich, Sylvia, Goodes,Franklin, N.Roo, J.Roo, I.Smith

Mzungu (E), Richardson, J.Tippet



So if you guys have any suggestions regarding trades, upgrades etc

Im playin Tom Harley in my leauge this week so would like a win

Cheers

I've gone Lobbe meaning that Petrie become perma ruck spot.
