Hey

Luke Parker was looking pretty good last night for his 17 possies - just surprised he got vested (unless he was getting a head ache from when Mcdonald polaxed him)

wonder if last nghts subbing is a sign of the future .... thats the downs side of those damn speculative mid prices...

anyone else have him?

Fireballz

So many people have talked about him this year but I haven't got him on board. Wouldn't worry about the vest because he copped 2 heavy bumps didn't he? Was probably feeling it a little bit.

TheMailman

He was looking very good, the vest was a bit precautionary as he copped another couple of blows as well

I wouldn't be too disheartened if I had him in my team, he looks to have consolidated a non vest spot in the starting 22

Capper

tried to keep my smokie quiet but as soon as he produced that great game in the NAB everyone jumped.

He has 2 weeks to be right for the next game and will be fine. Expecting ROK back for R2 as well for Harry, who was ok.

The swans will noramally play someone like Jetta or Rohan with the vest as the are burst players where Parker will be more likely to play a whole game

skrillex

I have him too, not too worry, he now has 2 weeks to recover from the bump. He looked good til then, We're gonna lose 40 or so points that he would've made, but these things happen.

I'm not worried

Is this an ominous warning to all with Golby as well.

Hm.

Hah yep I played it pretty safe this year other than golby and Parker. I felt their job security was better than any of the rooks. Will have to wait on see and if worse comes to worse trade down Parker to macdonald after he comes back after his holiday. Yes mc I'm blaming you for Parkers vest!

Nah 2 50-50 calls so golby will kill it maths says so  8)

dreamkiller

parker was everywhere before bump, had 6 disposals in first 10 minutes before bump, im sure he'll be alright next week subbing was only as a precaution, hopefully he fires, im hoping anyway, looks good

Capper

Started Parker over Old mac don ald and have 244 points on the field and 278 on the bench

Insider out

Just wanted to add - a little shattered that his jaw is broken (imagine how he must feel)

But absolutely hats off to the youg fella - played on with a broken jaw to score much better than it could have been!! 55 from 50% game time with a broken jaw is commendable stuff.

I will patiently await your return
