Stop making excuses for your crap selections.

Barlow will not finish top 6 mids, even if you take out week 1.

People that can't walk usually lose a bit of fitness. You can't compare him to the player he was after flying through the VFL injury free.

Chuck GWS rookies on the field and hope for the best. We'll all know more about the cash we can generate soon enough.

I'm not making excuses, I have stated that I am happy with the trade even though I made it a few weeks before I had planned on doing it.

For someone who can't walk, he averaged 101 in the 10 games he was not a sub last year. Brilliant for someone coming back from a badly broken leg.

Will average 110+ this year even if he is a sub again today, you'll see.:cool:

Meh, I'll just play Shiel instead. :)

Mumford a late out hurts though. Should have done the Mumford>Kruezer trade this week instead of putting it off until next week. :(

In your defense, doing a sideways trade after one Round 1 would have been incredibly aggressive. In hindsight, might have paid off, but hindsight is a wonderful thing :p
 
I wanted so bad to do Ellis > Bugg

I'm keeping my trade. I put Ellis on the bench and put Morris on the field.

I know things could get bad but as a mature aged recruit I feel his career is on the line here. Has to get at least 10 touches and 5 marks.

His career is on the line after one game where he was in the best 3-5 for his club last week.

What are you talking about :eek:

Surely troll

Why Ellis>Bugg? Morris doesn't look like a DT scoring type at all. Could do ok in SC though..

Ballsy move starting Morris after last week. Good luck with that. :thumbsu:
 
I was thinking of benching Barlow if he's named as sub again, but then again he's just as likely to outscore D Smith, Shiel or Hampton in a quarter and a bit, who I could start instead. Besides, any one of those 3 rookies could be subs/subbed for all we know.

Meh, I'll just play Shiel instead. :)

Hahahahaha, :rolleyes:. Dont worry, definitely the right decision. Just funny ;)

Barely touched the footy.

I don't care how many spoils and hard acts he does. The game is about USING THE FOOTBALL.

Although I reluctantly benched him, Barlow scored 67 points in a half today. No guarantee that Shiel my M6 this week or Devon Smith my mid emergency will score any more than that in a full game against North in Tassie.

I'm stoked that I already have a better M5 than most teams, even though he hasn't played a full game yet.

You brought him in too early though. Most will wait for his price to drop.

Barlow has scored 120 points in only 3/4 of a game against Geelong and Sydney in Sydney over the last 2 rounds, way more impressive than Watson against shit opposition.
He has come on as the sub both times and thereby is expected to make an impact.

Picking Barlow was silly. Watson, not so much

Thanks for wishing me luck. I'm happy with the 77 :cool:

Still have 24 trades. Thought I'd be happier not pulling the trigger and I do feel better for it. I always say I'm not going to waste trades and end up wasting them anyway. :eek:
