got a huge headache due to not sorting out my bye structure before last weeks game.
forward line stands as
buddy, dusty, goodes, fyfe, sidey,danger, smith (Kennedy, dickson/hall)
this gives me 3 premos in and 12 and i want to trade sidey out for robbo but don't have the cash (unless yagmoor, paine or smedts are named in the field so i can give Marty Clarke the boot)
so........
I'm strongly considering bringing in big jhonno brown for sidey. the man himself is adamant of his rd 3 return against freo.
pros
this gives ne the luxury of using kennedy's ton, fixes my bye structure, makes use of jbs great value, gives me a good POD aaaaaaand lets me make a sneaky upgrade elsewhere.
cons
duh. massive risk.
talk me out of it.

Bit of a waste having him on the bench for 3 weeks and i dont think he is gunna kill it DT wise once he comes back. Forget the byes mate i am going to deal with them as they arrive. What happens when you get injuries and can only afford players that are killing it but dont fit your bye structure? You gunna ignore it and get someone who is underdone?

if u go brown and dangerfield then u will be forced to not have any rd.11 bye rookies come bye time,so keep that in mind.
    i wouldnt get brown myself,,  how about going sidey to a rookie or porps and using the cash somewhere else

I would say yes you are crazy, but this could be the difference in winning the car and not... so...

Yeah, wait and see on him. Too much of an unknown to roll with him from the start.

You have done all the hard work just to get this picture sorted. Why not go with it? Whats the worse that can happen compared to the benefit?? Will you sleep nights or have nightmares of what you could have done? ;D
