Have persisted with StNick with disappointing results. I realise that he has played well vs Sydney in the past but cannot afford to be disappointed this week. With Chapman on a bye my cover is Silvia, Mzungu, Krakouer and Darling. Not looking to trade ... thinking Mzungu but willing to be convinced that St Nick can deliver :-\ ... thoughts anyone

In some ways I wish I could bench nick too, but as a saints man I just can't bring myself to do it!

I think one of the players you named will outscore nick, but I can't tell you which one...

I'm in the same boat.  Got Nick and Higgins as cover.  Am thinking Higgins will get a lot of cheap ball vs Port.  Opponent has the same forward line so thinking of starting Higgins as the POD.  Gotta risk it to get the biscuit.

Looking a couple of other threads there are quite a few benching Nick this week ... having the appropiate cover (or trade) seems to be the issue. Silvia showed some glimpses in the 2nd half last week but Mzungu maybe the man

I always thought Nick was overrated and when I drafted him in about 6 weeks ago I told myself pick with your head not your heart. He hasn't let me down, always trying hard but having almost no influence of any game and scoring poorly. Chases kicks up the ground so doesn't kick goals and can't take a contested mark to save himself.

St.Kilda have missed their real captain this year, Lenny - now there's a bloke who everyone respects.

I"m struggling to decide which 2 of these FWDs to put on the field this week.

Leaning towards playing Higgins and Sylvia atm

Rest of foward line is: Pav, Fyfe, Goodes, Rioli, Petrie.
