Lovely Petracca. Spud it up so every kent jumps off him, becomes a nice POD and wins the Brownlow this year.

 

[Maybe Tomorrow]

Now I'm sad. You haven't been listening

Eh?

 

[LegendLewis]

Have you had a listen to Zac Merrett's after game interview (3mins worth)? Mentions Cox in one of his comments in a very positive way. Can't remember the comments exactly but it made me think that Cox was pretty safe in the team. Could be wrong but the video is on Bombers web page if you want to check it out.
Really liking Martin. Hope he gets a gig

Reckon he plays because as stated somewhere recently (Can't friggin remember where)
' he can play anywhere'.

 

[Duckworthy]

Eh?

Just having fun
I've made a few comments on the Bombers "new" setup now that they - apparently - have so many midfielders. Easy to miss

Will do...Maybe Cutler is a fringe player. It's hard to squeeze them all in. Pity he is not a gun x factor small forward because that is something we really need.

 

[Hava Alle]

Carlton didn't get Hewett to tag. They already had Curnow for that. Everything he's done in preseason, from training to matches, indicates he and the team are attacking. I see him averaging 100+ while Walsh is out and 90-95 when Walsh is full speed. Year average of 92-97. Great value at 400k when so few rookies are available there.

Was listening to SEN and Gazey has the mail that Walsh is returning to full training tomorrow and a big chance for round 1. Reliable source apparently.

 

[Jiska]

I don't see what others do here.

Since switching to defence 4 seasons ago, Sicily lowest average is 94. Hewett's highest season average in his 8 year career is 88, with a next best of 78. Sicily is priced low due to his ACL. Hewett is priced low because he averaged 73 last season. I get he has switched clubs and roles, but he's played mid before and I worry it will be another Zac Williams or countless others before him. At least Sicily has done it before and done so consistently. Hewett seems much more of a maybe.

If Hartigan is named round 1, Sicily is locked in for me, brain fades and all.

Crisp + Hewett, or Ridley + Sicily Guardian Hawk ?

 

[Jiska]

That was my cunning all plan along; insinuate myself into the discussion and then pinch the best set-up I could find. Bugger, there I was patting myself on the back for my subtle subterfuge, too...

Appreciate the confirmation

 

[Jiska]

Just imo but Chapman is a terrible pick. Take a rookie and upgrade somewhere else, or keep the cash. Second year players aren't worth the risk, no matter how good they look in two preseason games against a team that might win the spoon.

Great idea. All we need now is a defensive rookie

 

[Jiska]

Does this apply to Rowell ? .....what is it now, 6 games of AFL

17 games. Close.

Do you already have Short?

Don't quote me but I have a feeling he kicked a number of goals for his team in the west last year

Apparently led his club.

 

[Obese Arachnid]

Mrs OA does.

 

[Silky23]

I mean I think both are alright short term, Chapman for a bit longer, if picked. But can see a side like this

B: Ryan, Pearce, Logue
HB: Wilson, Cox, Aish
C: Clark, Brayshaw, Young
HF: Colyer, Taberner, Schultz
F: Walters, Lobb, Frederick
Foll: Darcy, Serong, Fyfe
Bench: Mundy, Henry, Acres, Treacy

Emerg: Brodie, Switkowski, Chapman, Banfield, Crowden

Wilson a shoulder scan wait - but Clark or Young could play half back and Crowden or Banfield could come in, some shuffling required etc.

Longmuir sounded more positive about Chapman, less positive about Brodie. F5 is a dick of a spot.

This is an absolute laugh, Chapman is far and away in their best 22.

 

[Northernsoul74]

After all the changes and settling on structure has anyone revisited their bye situation. I just have and wish I hadn’t.

Bloody strong side when CD elite Ziggy is named as an emergency...

All good mate, I was trying to continue the joke of not listening.

We did this discussion while you were napping Jisk, keep up

Assuming you have a premo at D4 - McCartin, Sinn, SdK, Boyd, Gibcus, Hinge all looking likely. Kemp possibly. I haven't seen your team so don't know which you have, but there are a few options.

Chapman priced at 56 means one bad score (30 or 40) kills his cash gen. A bad score early and he might lose money. Even if he averages 80 he's barely getting to $400k, and that could take months. You're either picking players to be keepers, or make money. Not players priced at 56 to average 60 something.

Sinn, Boyd won't play I think, Kemp borderline but also his cash gen will be poor imo - I'm actually looking to get him out.

If Chapman gets the role he should have he'll average 80+ anyway.

 

[HTPunter]

Aish WTF?????

He's missed 1 game in 2 seasons at Freo. I don't know the inner workings of Freo selection committee, I'd hope for their sake they move past him, but certainly not outlandish to think he gets named, especially with the other experienced lockdown small Wilson probably out.
