I'm Keeping Fyfe

mezzoculo

Was planning on holding Fyfe for the week but now that Goodes has been offered a week I will have to trade (unless Dickson receives an unlikely call-up). Damn.

What are people's thoughts on a Fyfe to Smedts and Shiel to Goddard pair of trades? Would leave God in the mids until my first cashcow cull in the backline.

I was thinking the same thing, and really regretting trading dickson to greene last week and killing my dpp link. Now i'm considering going a rookie mid to treloar when he's on the bubble and upgrade fyfe to M.Murphy.

I think a lot of people will be going with a similar approach just because there isn't many non-r13 bye forwards that are worth trading to. I already have robinson, buddy, sidebum, martin, danger and i'm really struggling to find someone to replace fyfe.

It's a shame that we have to get rid of a cash cow so early for this to work, but the idea is not outrageous at all.


my thoughts exactly

treloar, and then zorko and docherty will save me in two rounds time

Trelour instead of Smedts?

Would love to whatlez, but that would leave me with three GWS rookies in the forward line - perhaps one too too many if they collectively have a stinker.

Anyone have any thoughts on Rhys Stanley as a Fyfe replacement? Has a delicious -47 BE and has managed an average of 88 in his three games.

Or am I grasping at straws  :-\

My bad, forgot this thread was here.

It's hard to spot right up the top

Any chance you can sticky it under the IMPORTANT PLEASE READ BEFORE POSTING thread?

ossie85


Nope, stickies work like other threads - newest at top

I think get a seperate thread on that article ossie. Lots of people won't view this thread much anymore.

I was entertaining the idea of getting a smoky fwd like Ballantyne or MJ.

But Fyfe is/was my number 2 FWD. So I'm just getting a gun and be done with it.

Going Goodes.

But sounds like Goodes might be suspended next round?

I'm hoping he doesn't.  ;)

Windy, I'm pretty sure he's already been rubbed out for a week...

In summary, due to his previous poor record, his one-match sanction must remain at one game, even with an early plea.

Mr.Craig

I think Fyfe should be in the best option poll.
