BAGULEY V COUCH

[EZA100]

WHICH ONE WILL SCORE AND BETTER AND WHICH ONE HAS BETTER JS?

[Windigo]

Couch.

Bagles is just filling the void I'd think until they get some players back?  ???

Even I knew they were gunna play all the games, I'd still go with Couch.

Couch has way better JS...

I'd think Baguley has reasonable JS at keast until hibberd returns which will be a couple of weeks away, and he coukd retain a spot even after that. I'm not sold on couch's JS personally, he's names last on the bench which is never a good sign and the dees also have Moloney in the VFL who surely is in their best 22 and will return soon. Neeld also said that he would not play couch and Magner in the same team, and this is the only round where he has in fact done that and I'm not convinced there is room for both of them in the side.

I would say Baguley, Couch with good job security? it took him 16 rounds to get a game when Melbourne was at its worst. Baguley came in, and same game Hibberd gets injured, so two spots open for Baguley, its enough anyway

sometimes just use caps :P can't wait for gta v !

Think both have reasonable security. I'm more interested in Baguley due to the Def DPP link. We've had a stack of Mid/Fwd rooks come through but no Def/Mid rooks until now. Fingers crossed he keeps on performing.

Consider that Essendon has shifted Heppell and Dempsey into the midfield to help cover for the loss of Hocking and Zaharakis, and then placed Baguley in one of the spots that these two would normally take. When Hocking and Hibberd return then Baguley could well be squeezed out.

Well said.

I've been back and forth on this decision all week.  Conclusion I've come to is that Couch has better JS; given that Melb won't play finals, they're likely to get as many games as they can into Couch leading into next season.  Baguley on the other hand, is very appealing with the DEF/MID DPP status however he could be cut a lot quicker.

My 2c anyway... Think I'm going to go with Couch.
