Could Hanley be pulled last minute?

[BigBob]

I have 7 defenders playing this week. Looking at putting Shaw as the emergency to ensure his score is good enough (ie use emergency loophole with Thurlow as the non-player), but concerned Hanley might be pulled last minute leaving me me with no emergency. Thoughts on the likelihood of Hanley being pulled (as he had an injury concern)

Theres always a chance. Who would really know though. Its not like the game is important so I dont see why they wouldnt just put him on ice if they needed to

[BigBob]

Hmmm. These loopholes can be a bit of a trap, eh? Especially this time of year when there are so many late outs. I gather Doc Larkins is the most reliable source, compared to say Injury Update?

There is definitely a element of risk when using the loophole especially this week. I can use the loophole like you on Shaw and one of five midfielders this week but may choose not to with Hanley and Cotchin as possible withdrawals.

yeah, I've got Cotchin too. Guess it depends on whether points or league is your aim and if you're confident or in need of some luck.
