Flowering Cotching!

@Chaos

He's average +100 still and you brought him at a 94ppg price tag, stop complaining. I have him myself and you have to understand that Carlton is a dt restricting team. They have numerous taggers with a game plan that restricts opposition space. When a team plays Carlton their major ball winners could do either good or bad. This week we were unlucky but you picked him and you should've understood the risk (with his 94ppg price tag especially). If it was Pendles, Gaj, Stevie J or Swan sure you can be angry, however with players like Watson, Cotchin, Libby etc. you should know the risk entailed. If you brought him in after a 10 game average of 105+, sure fair enough, but round 2.... The only person you can blame is yourself and if you are pissed off... then trade him out next week.. I bet that you won't so why even post complaints about it in the first place. If it was a 40-65 score sure but even the best premo's will score a 70-80 every now and then but with Cotchin (esp. taking last year into account) it is more than reasonably foreseeable. Like I said if you're angry don't blame the player, blame the guy who started him.

There was heaps of talk about him stinking it up with the Curnow tag throuhgout this forum so the advice was there.  I dropped him and I'm fine with that, I know he will push a 100+ average, but I'd only be having him in my team due to his low price, I went with a mid that will stay in my team till season's end as I would have moved Cotchin on at some stage anyway, my decision and I'm happy with it regardless of how he goes.

some people just need to vent somewhere. Plus it was pretty annoying the fashion in which Cotchin's 79 occured. He was on target for a ton and then stopped touching the ball in the last. But that was not unique amongst the Richmond team, so no one should be worried. Dimma should go away and tell the tiges that when you're in front at half time you don't stop playing and hope to hold on.

All I know is Carlton suck as a team and as a defensive fantasy score stopper.  :-\

Dusty, Lids, Cotchin, Ellis etc. fantasy value has risen however... They won't be playing Carlton again hahahahahaha
