Hanley or Bartel but if you want to pick up Hanley then I'd wait a week or two for his price to drop.

Same reason I didn't start him. Could be in my side in the next couple of weeks.

Hibberd just looks very solid and should comfortably be in the top 6 backman. Priced around what he is worth but your getting a keeper.

I went to hibberd this week.

I went to hibberd this week.

As of today, my trades for this week are:

X.Ellis to Lloyd via Zorko DPP.
Clurey to Hibberd.

I don't feel great about using a trade on a rookie that has made me no money, but I figure it's better to have players that are actually getting gametime in my team coming into the byes?

I wanted to bring in Jaensch but my team is already way too heavy on R8 bye players, so Hibberd it is.

hanley will be 450k soon.

No doubt Hanley is a worthy option, but for me personally I have never had him in my teams ever. I think there is just something about him, that occasional 40odd score which has always puts me off him lol

This is just me though, heaps of people have him and rightly so

Lol bit of an exaggeration there mate. He went under 80 5 times last year;
A 79 against the Cats at Symonds, tagged by Hunt
55 against GWS, subbed due to injury early in 3rd quarter
42 against the Cats where SJ basically knocked him out cold
49 tagged by Caff
71 against North, injured his leg in the 2nd quarter, iced up at 3QT

So really only 1 legitimate poor score, and he isn't the only one to et destroyed by Macaffer ;)
