I've had Clark and Holmes early and was going to use them as stepping stones to guys like Stewart. Think I'll just keep as PODs
Yeah, I’m holding Clark and trading Stewart. Thought about trading one of my three round 15 bye defenders in Daicos, Dale or NWM at their bye but they have all earned their spots and don’t deserve to be traded despite the hit I’ll take during round 15. Stewart absolutely deserves to be traded.

Will finally be able to start barracking for Luke Ryan for the first time immediately after his bye.

Adelaide’s woes have been further compounded with midfielder Matt Crouch to have season-ending shoulder injury.
The Crows went down to Hawthorn at the MCG on Saturday in one of their most disappointing performances of the season that all but spells the end of their finals hopes.

Adelaide will now be without Crouch after scans revealed he suffered a right AC joint injury in the first quarter.

Crows high performance manager Darren Burgess said Crouch would have the surgery this week.

“It’s really disappointing for Matt who has been playing some great footy this year,” he said.

“Unfortunately, the severity of the injury requires surgery and he will miss the rest of the season.


“But the timing of it means he will begin his rehabilitation straight away and be ready for the start of pre-season.”

The Crows take on Richmond at Adelaide Oval on Thursday night and it might not only be Crouch missing.

Talisman forward Taylor Walker is unlikely after his back seized up and he was subbed out of the loss to the Hawks, while there has to be some doubt around captain Jordan Dawson, who was clearly hampered by a foot issue, despite passing a late fitness test on Saturday.
Berry and Dowling may be decent bench options for the run home.

I figure I might as well wait until Ryan plays Richmond. Hope he drops a bad game. 🙄

We need more reactions, I always feel bad liking posts (as in thanks for posting it) when the content is that people are out for the year, etc.
I agree, I definitely think a ''Thanks'' button as well as a ''Interesting'' button would be amazing on sites like this.
Just a more precise way of quickly expressing feeling/thought towards a range of different posts/comments.

I agree with this, but instead of adding more buttons, just add a link to the Emojis that are in the "Post reply" that can be used.

As an example.

Finally an update! Have been waiting for ages. No timeline yet which is annoying but even though he’s “unlikely” to play this week it’s better than a “no”. This should mean that he should return soonish (2-3 weeks) then right? Understand the nature of the injury makes it hard to determine a definite timeline. Looking like a hold from me.

Yeah my plan is to hold him and have him as D7 to loop and cover the defenders in the run home.

Planning the same for Sexton at F7 which with some DPP magic will be able to cover any short term injuries in the rest of the lines.

Yeah, I’m holding him as D7 as well. If I trade for another D7 the only decent alternative that I could trade in looks to be Salem and well… I don’t really rate the pick. It’s not like a premo injury as you aren’t losing as much points on field each week.
