My back rookies are Ellis, Bugg (Morris, Yagmoor), but after seeing that I couldn't trust Ellis to score me 60-70, should Marty Clarke be on all our radars, just for that extra security in knowing he'll score at least 60ish?

Thanks.

Well I had all 3 before the game and still do. I think Ellis and Morrison will lift. Whether you need Clarke or not depends on your setup. I would feel very uncomfortable having to start 2 back rookies. As I have it now Clarke and bugg Morris or Ellis will be starting for me

Don't get in Clarke because of the Richmond game. But may bee get him because I think he is a good pick

Chopps

It was his first hit out, rookies won't all come out and smash it, how you gonna get Clarke get rid of yagmoor

Morris did all the little things. I think he played better than Ellis.

Hasn't got pace, but gives his all with his attempted run down smothers.

We haven't even seen Marty play this wkend, he could do worse!

Bugg and co. would've done worse than these two last night if they were playing.

Last nights game was chalk and cheese between last weekends glorified exhibition game.

i agree, even though they both didnt score well fantasy wise.
  they both looked ok at the end of the game(maybe abit nervous at the start,which is natural)
one of the happiest moments for me last night was when Tuck got the red vest...big relief...  with morris on single figures and ellis on 16 or something, i was sure one was gunna be subbed off.
   morris looks like he gave it is all putting pressure on the ball carrier.  im quietly confident in both to cash cow well enough and to have decent JS.
   people thinking of getting rid of them after one game, atleast wait until the player u want gets on the bubble then think about it. next game the two tiger players score a solid 60 and all will be forgotton.

I only got 3 rookies in the back because i was concerned about the shower scores they might score early on. Unfortunately like most i had bugg as emergency and ellis as the starting rookie. Next week morris and ellis will be benched in my team think they will still be great cash cows. In hindsight i would of liked clarke instead of morris/ellis but im not going to change my structure to fit him in. I did that in my forward line by changing hale to martin and downgrade porp to couch so i could get kennedy score. No doubt Hale will carve it up and offset the difference between porp and kennedy.

So are people comfortable starting one of Ellis/Morris?
