What To Do With Cotchin? (Cheering)

HBTD22 · August 22, 2013, 06:45:31 PM

Thats the team. First trade was Heppell > Murphy. Currently, second trade is Roughy > Roo but I need to decide whether to trade Cotchin to another mid premo or trade out Roughy for NRoo, Stokes, Harvey, etc. Ideas? I'm not sold on Cotchin after last week + the injury concern. Plus GWS tag pretty hard and Cotchin usually showers the bed when he gets tagged. Roughy too should be alright without Scott Thompson in the side but then again has a crap record against NM and has been average lately.

Cotchspud was always going to fail this year, lesson is? Don't get players after their breakout year! Price too high? :o

Told ya ;)

Lol tbag i seem to recall you hyping the shower out of dangerfield as well mate, he's only averaged one more point per game higher than Cotchin ::)

Lol

I'd go Cotchin --> Watson

I reckon that would gain you more points then Roughy --> Nroo.

Cotch to get a hard tag and Watson a bit of a POD at the moment.

Would anyone risk fielding Marc Murphy against the poor Dons over Cotchin this week?

Yes certainly, has been in very ordinary form but I can easily see cotch not breaking 70 unfortunately, and murphy should score ok against the bombers.

I too would trade cotchin out over roughy, I'd definitely consider watson as a value pick or also joey montagna for a POD

My only concern with Watson is the Cachia or Curnow tag from Carlton and Essendon's poor form - and a 70 odd from him against them earlier this year. However, his form post injury has been great.

it certainly a tough time to bring in bombers players. Blues are tagging everyone and who knows what's going on at that club. Is Cotch's form that bad..? 144, 91, 137, 105, 51. Granted he had a shocker but who hasn't had the odd one this year? I was going to flick him but looked at this and changed my mind

I'm backing him to bounce back this week.
Like the trade to NRoo. Consistent. Sure to get 80+

Not a fail when you pick him up at 400k and he hits three big tons in the next month :3

didn't cotchin cop a knock during the game? Reckon he'll be the same?

Back cotchin in I reckon. Although GWS have taggers, the only one thats doing any damage at the moment is whiley. Swanny has a 160 on GWS recently so it's not i impossible to go huge.

I think cotch is worth the punt, could win you a final.

HBTD22 · August 23, 2013, 09:45:13 AM

Cheers guys. Gonna be a tough decision!

geehee · August 23, 2013, 10:11:09 AM

Personally, I'm outting Cotchin this week. Will cop a tag of some sort from GWS, and having a bruised shin, might make him a little hesitant if he does play and isn't a late withdrawal. Richmond need him for finals, so it would be a prime time for a rest imo
