Lower - Should I stay or should I go?

Cruiseon · August 15, 2011, 09:46:18 PM

As many people drop out of SC finals contention the decisions get tougher & more important. After teasing with some very handy scores Lower comes out with an 11 in the hour of need. Such a disgraceful effort after seemingly earning the right as the 7th defender.

Is there any reason to keep such a disappointment this week?

If you have trades I'd burn him. If not, just banish the b*st*rd to the bench.

His score was crap but surely he wont do it again, will he?

Just remember he was the sub or subbed in early rounds so may be running out of puff. As said if OK for trades probably burn him but if not keep as emergency.

pickings in the back line seem fairly slim, but at least he's at 330K or thereabouts
i'm dropping him for a gun to cover enright then gibbs; then jedi will slip back to the bench once both are back on deck

Adcock; although the force has waned in him somewhat.

i reckon that boat sailed a long time ago ... he's just as inconsistent as Lower and that ain't what you want this time of year ...

A bit of a like for like at the moment - especially at the Lions have Collingwood this week.

Voss used Adcock in a tagging role on Brennan after half time on Saturday effecting his scores. As I have the bye this week I will be watching Drummonds performance against pies and if he scores another 90+ will consider a straight trade for Lower. Surely the goodness we can get three good games out of Drummond.

Since his return he has been quite good. His SC was ordinary because of his ball use in the first quater, from memory he had 2 clangers and 2 ONF. That is going to kill anyone score he is usually a great user so i would keep him and play him no doubt.

Check Lowers scores this year, for some reason he always plays his worst games at subiaco, and this week he is playing at etihad, so if he is selected I'm gonna play him to cover Enright.

Kick him to the Kerb.
