Goodes - knee slide

[esquire]

Any one see it? Is he likely to get a 1 week time out for another knee slide?

[Ziplock]

2 weeks :P

[BGK]

He probably has carry over plus he wouldn't get a discount for good behavior. Could be 2.

[esquire]

Ouch. Might be looking to offload to Robinson then - he's killing it!

[Windigo]

He'll get off, MRP loves Browlow medalists.  :P

I hope he gets suspended so I have a reason to trade him out of my team. Only reason I kept him this week is because he's playing Port, but he's spudding it up in the third quarter.

Either way I'll probably trade him out anyway. This was his last chance and he's failing.

Didn't see it ... kinda hope he gets 3 or 4 weeks or something crazy (not beyound the MRP) ... then i can justify trading the spud out of my team.

Maybe this year is the changing of the guard for the premiums ... so far the following have really unperformed to different levels: Broughton, Shaw, Enright, Goodes, Pavlich, ROK, Swan, Cox, Mumford and the list goes on ...

(A little harsh with some of these and a little debatable if blokes like Broughton are really premiums but you get the idea).

New crop of premiums perhaps: Cotchin, Stanton, S.Selwood, Ryder, Kruizer, Ebert, Shuey, M.Robinson, Zarharakis, J.Roo, Dempsey, Hurn etc ...

I'll probably be going Goodes > Cornes, Robinson or Whitecross, depending on the other 2 players games this weekend.

I gave him 1 more chance and 89 against Port Adelaide simply isn't good enough for a premium. Bye by

Can't really justify trading out Goodes unless he gets a few weeks ... he does start the season slow.
Very frustrating at present however ... but so are sooo many players!

[Artax]

was sure this was the year he would start like a bullet..

His 80-90 average is exactly what you should expect for the price you paid for him... there are very few forwards that average over 100, and on top of that, he has a reputation for starting the season slowly, so what did you expect? I would think it is a complete waste of a trade if he only out for 1-2 weeks (unless of course you don't have any decent bench rookies to cover for him), as he will score about as well as anyone you would be able to trade him too over the rest of the season... seriously, the whinging about Martin I can understand, especially after this week... but Goodes? He is averaging almost exactly you should expect for his price, and is actually doing about as well as the majority of other forwards, with the exception of maybe Robinson (and his scoring could drop off too, although admittedly he does look like a very good pick at the moment).

Goodes been ok! No injury to the other player! Hope he gets off!

[Big_Cox14]

Goodes is doing his job. I think that he will get off because he's Adam Goodes!

[MGK1]

Not high contact, not heavy impact, no malicious intent and most importantly no injury to the victim.

However, being reported for a similar incident and a reckless act could see him go for 1 WEEK TOPS!

I'll be seriously surprised if more than a week.

[Zombie2.5]

He's a slow starter as everyone has said.

If you are thinking that he'll start like a rocket, you're probably wrong, i think if you look at his past scores against the teams he is playing(besides GWS) he didnt actually do that well against them last year.

Keep him, he'll come good as he is a PREMO.
