Discussion 2023 Round 13: Teams & In Game Discussion

[Ironhawk]

So if this comes to fruition, what are Sicily owners doing? Let's just say he gets 2 weeks, that's actually 3 rounds he's missing due to the bye. I think I would lean towards begrudgingly trading him..

Trial by media there.

If he's out (he shouldn't be in my opinion, but I don't have thousands of people reading what I say, the people making the decision won't read this anyway), possibly trade to Oliver, assuming he is back. I guess we'd be looking at getting him back in the team at some point.

Just take the hit more than likely, its a guy youre going to want in a completed team so doesnt make much sense to trade him and then have to struggle to get him back again.

Highly dependent who youve got for cover for most I think. If youre at the pointy end holding probably isnt an option.

Reckon he gets 3 and the decisions made for you though anyway.

Having to wait until 3.20pm AEST for the footy today really is quite upsetting.

Not great. Will have to settle for a VFL game or two. Check out a few in reserves for a mid/late season promotion.

And we are probably going to have to get used to it for years to come; I know the Bombers & Blues are keen to make tonights "Kings Birthday Eve" clash another marquee match permanently locked in the fixture.

That doesn't make any real sense. They are already a "blockbuster" game whenever they meet. It would be better to try and cultivate a rivalry game against another team. A special cause or theme. Make the connection to Comic Con, dress up as your favourite Marvel character. Screen a Marvel movie as the prelude.

Wish they’d not put the Thursday game in for this round and push everyone back a slot. Would’ve made it a lot better for constant viewing.

Very slow burn.

Yeah he's not what we had hoped for SC wise this year is he. Though his DPP and ability to be utilized in loops has been handy.

I'm really keen to see him get a string of full games in a row... with some more senior players back next too him as well to truly assess him though.

Off season exhibition match in the UK on November 13th then?

1701 / 13 + Laird

Big round for a few. Daicos out would probably be a positive as have cover.

Bomber Blues VFL game live on Ch 7 now.

Think I still hold given the limited trades in the bank….moved on Ziebell for Neale this round so can’t afford another sideways trade.

If I had enough trades the move might be the play, particularly for round 14 and 15 byes

It's interesting, because it would be pretty much the same as the Oliver hold. 3 weeks ago everyone was "have to trade". 3 weeks later everyone is "can't afford to trade"!

That was 6 - 8 trades ago, a captain option and for an apparent injury. Sicily is healthy.
