Cox, Jacobs, Hale, Roughead???

[Dave085]

Hey guys,

$210,300 in the bank and 3 trades remaining with elimination final this week.
Do you think that Jacobs, Cox, Hale or Roughead will fare better for the rest of the season. Looking at recent stats its really between Jacobs and Cox but im worried about Cox with some tough opposition in the last two rounds and possibility of an injury management...

Thoughts?

Jacobs - Brisbane, Melbourne, Gold Coast
Cox - Port, Collingwood, Hawthorn
Hale and Roughead - Gold Coast, Sydney, West Coast

DEF: B Deledio, H Scotland, M Johnson , B Goddard, D Heppell, H Shaw, A Carrazzo, Bench - S Shaw, S Edwards
MID: D Swan, M Boyd, J Watson, G Ablett, J Selwood, S Pendlebury, Bench - S Gibson, A Miles

RUCK: I Maric, J Giles, Bench -  J Redden, O Stephenson
FWD: D Beams, S Sidebottom, J Lewis, D Martin, D Zorko, A Goodes, L Franklin Bench -  T Dickson,  T Couch

Just brought in big Cox this week as a bit of a desperation trade. I'm still very nervous about him getting rested. But I don't know if West Coast can really afford to rest him with. But it is Dean Cox. Easily the best ruck in the comp so back him in I reckon.

If he was going to be rested you would think this is the week to do it rather than against the Hawks or Collingwood... Im so unsure and not keen on risks. Might stick with Jacobs, he missed round 18, but does he need a breather before the finals?

Keep your eye open Hagebear. Dont know what the validity is mate but thought id let ya know anyway, from MrCraig in this thread...

**********"There's some whispers (quiet ones admittedly) that Cox might be a late out. Now, I've got Roughy in my forwards and Cloke on the bench, if I want to I could move Roughy into the rucks and bench Giles so I've got an emergency. I might be losing out on 20-30 points but the cover could save me 60-80. Thoughts?"**********
