Yeah he's a good one too mate.
Should be able to bring him in on the bubble at round 10.

NRoo should get below $450k in a couple of weeks now.
Gone off NRoo now.
I reckon he's knee is going to go pop at any second!
Think I might upgrade Higgins to Harvey in round 9 to complete my forward line.
Dangerfield, Martin, Harvey, Roughead, Zorko, Wingard (Lloyd, Ambrose)

New trade plans now that Mitchell is injured and going to miss a few.
Mitchell > Simpson
Kelly > Acres
Round 9 -
Higgins > Harvey
Polec > Cotchin/Swallow
If Swallow then I switch him up back with Langdon in a few weeks and upgrade Langdon to Selwood.

Why must you make silly blanket statements just to suit your own trade reasoning and agenda all the ****ing time?
NRoo's knee has been sore for years and is carefully managed. The guy sleeps with blowup moonboots on both legs FFS, yet plays week in week out nad still manages to average 100+. Did you even watch the game yesterday? He scored shit because he was triple teamed by some gun defenders and the game was being played in the other half of the ground and not because his knee was about to fall off.

Yeah that's exactly why I have gone off him for after seeing that pic of him in the blowup moonboots, etc.

I love Star Wars but my 3 year old watches Star Wars on and off all bl
dy day first thing from from 6am - 8pm for over a year now. He is a Star Wars freak. I could recite all 6 movies. Its on right now. Darth Vader scares the shit out of him. Lol! Great to keep them occupied though. He always has his lightsaber with him.Now my 2 year old (birthday today - Star Wars day!) is the same too. I'm all Star Wars'd out.

No I didn't.
No where did I write that I am not getting in NRoo due to him scoring shower.

Well it could.
Doesn't exactly have the healthiest knee going around does he? LOL!
It's been that way for 2-3 years though and he's hardly missed any games due to it, so your point is moot.

You could have stuck any gun CHF in St Kilda's team yesterday and they wouldn't have scored any better.
Which is what I'm saying...he's playing in that team every week with kids that will no doubt regress as the season progresses. I'm not slighting Nroo himself as a player, just pointing out the reality of his situation.

Has to go at sometime I reckon.
Its like what someone said on here last week.

I thought the same before Rd1 hence NRoo wasn't in my initial team, yet he still scores well (apart from the last 2 obviously) he takes marks up on the wing a lot, so supply isn't really an issue.

You could say the same about Ablett, yet people aren't lining up to trade him out.
Yeah, we'll see. Nroo is an absolute champ and works harder than anyone but not I'm not ready to bank on that. Saying supply isn't an issue is wrong though, it's crucial for a forward no matter how good you are. That's why you usually don't get forwards from spud teams.
He's the best midfielder of all time probably and wins his own ball consistently.

Back on topic. As a matter of strategy I'm considering trading in a Rd8 bye ultra premo this week if I have 19 or more starters, purely so I can have both Selwood and Pendles in my team for Rd9.
JMerrett > Selwood (Taylor to Fwds)
then McRae > Pendles in for Rd9

Ablett isn't playing with a dodgy knee though all the time.
But he plays a lot of minutes and his knee, ankle, shoulder, funnybone could all go pop at any time
