I reckon he will play need more players like him

The only reason he wouldn't play for Casey is if a) he's injured or b) he's in the Dees' plans for round 1. Haven't heard any injury concerns, so that leaves the latter. :)

Any chance Dalgleish gets games? Even if there are no bans?

Would have to have pretty dodgy JS if he did you'd assume

Not a standout performance - done some nice things but has gone under the radar a bit. Missed a goal from right out in front too

Brayshaw is BOG so far - kicked 2 already

Brayshaw is a gun, would seriously consider picking him if he gets a surprise call-up.

Just a practice match

Brayshaw  better player... But he costs that extra 100k. Could go both if it warrants it but !

I currently have Steven at M4 & Wells at M5, would be happy enough to go with JPK & Brayshaw if he makes the cut. For my money he's good for an 80 average, watched him play some outstanding footy for the AIS early last year against a very strong Collingwood reserves side and he dominated. It's rare to get a player of Brayshaw's size being able to run a 2.82sec/20m sprint, not to mention he's a brilliant player on both sides of his body. I mentioned at draft time he was my clear number 1 pick so I would back him to make an impact if he gets a call-up.

iirc it took Salem about 6 solid performances before he got the call up to AFL - I'm guessing Roos will make Brayshaw do the same

He's in the right side to get early game ;)

Thoughts on Dom Sheed? Priced at $214. Played 10 games last year but the vest restricted this scoring ability. Will he be able to avoid the vest this season?
