Just curious, did Rocky's return spell more forward time for RGray?

It could, will just have to wait and see.

I think it already has. Drop in disposal numbers to 20, only 7 CP's and 5 CL, and apart from his 75 point 3rd quarter didn't really do much. Will be monitoring that closely.

Bloody Rocky. Was set to bring in Gray finally, looks like a no go now, especially with a bye coming up. Missing the bye didn't worry me so much as it's an extra premo for the other 3.
Rocky playing mid is the huge turnoff.

Did he have any effect on Boak's numbers?

First thing I noticed in the game was Boak spending time deep fwd. I think that might be one to monitor in Rd 9 and Rd 11 and making a call before Rd 12.

I'm not worried about Gray. Look at last year he put up a 90avg playing pure fwd and being injured. No way we subject him to being a 100% fwd with the way he has been playing in the midfield (just look at his 4th goal of the 3rd qtr to see why we need him roving to Ryder). Worst case he is a 95avg player from here on which is still fine for a fwd premo slot, if I didn't have him I'd be getting him Rd 11 regardless of price.

Rocky hasn't burnt me like he has burnt others, I don't think I've ever owned him in SC. Certainly one I will be looking to jump on Rd 11.

My order for Port players post bye: Gray 1st, Ryder (Only if you need to jump off a spud i.e. Goldy), Rocky, Westhoff, and Boak 5th.

Cheers for the response, might do Henry -> Gray in R11.

Well I am worried about Gray.
I'm not paying 560k for a fwd who's averaged 116 for owners,only to drop to a 90-95 average from here on.
That doesn't add up.

This is my exact thoughts. I was going to bring him in staright after his bye, but I might wait a week to see what his role might be. I don't want those <50 scores from last year scattered amonst 120+ scores just cos he isn't kicking 4 goals a game as a permanent fwd.

A big game in China & I will be going Kelly to Rocky, Goldy to Ryder. Could be a season defining shuffle.

Yes, Voss did play the Rockpig fwd and he bombed, was like 6 games or so? Didnt work, returned to mids rnd 14 i think? avg 127 for rest of season...

Attended 19CBAs vs Adelaide, had new role so yes it will effect Grays midfield time. Their fwd line hasnt been potent as Hoff had to ruck, Dixon trying to find touch,kicking 5 in a qtr? well that will do it, Robbie Gray will be fwd more from here on out. Still solid option before he went mid in his career. After cancer Robbie has a grit, a seniority to him, he looks very focussed this year. Can play...was noted goal kicker.

21d eg avg from here out, should get a few more marks and creative goals/score assists

As for Rocky he was tackling, he hasnt tackled since his his inj where he was avg 123sc ranked #1 player at time of inj.

378k is cheap Rockpig, will watch China game then make call could be great POD vs those going Oliver or Crouch. No Polec should score well against the GC witchs hats.

Where do you find these stats about Centre Bounce Attendances? think this is going to be a crucial stat for Gray moving forward because Rocky the Pig is looking really tasty!

Could bring him in after their bye, but would mean I'd miss out on one of Danger/Macrae...

Rocky is as good a cash cow as any rookie. Even having him on the bench would be a massive advantage.

Scores a 98 and the FF hysteria is back in full swing

It was the way he played Raisy, looked really good. For 380k & knowing his ceiling, not to mention the extra game over the bye period, he's absolutely a contender.
