have we taken a dud in wingard mate ? :(
I've got him too Maso, not sure what the viable alternatives are though if we got rid of him, consistant forwards seem a bit thin on the ground this year.

Edit: You still thinking Petrie will come good Rowsus? Hasn't scored a ton yet, but is getting awfully cheap.

I just brought him in this week mate, so expect him to improve from here. I brought him in expecting him to be a top 6-8 forward from this point - he's just been easing into the season so I could pick him up for 420k ;)

lol all of sudden chad has found something
I'm hoping it's oval shaped and leather.....
He actually demonstrated in that quarter why I took him.
Some good on ball time, but most importantly, he is just about the best opportunist in the League. Kicks goals from awkward positions in play, off a half step. There are probably only 5 or 6 guys in the League that would have kicked that goal he got in the 2nd quarter. I'll stick with him.

At this stage, yes. I am backing his scores to improve after the byes, as North's Draw gets easier.
If Roughie gets 2 weeks, which I think he will, I will be going Roughie to Petrie and pocketing $79k next week.

Will you take him over Cloke? Pretty much the same price

I'll be going JKH to Tex next week costing a trade and some spare change, JKH did me a massive favour smashing out that 112 last week and Tex has kicked a couple of bags in the SANFL and is looking good. Not sure how Petrie could fit in now, will have to pay attention to my upgrade/downgrade options.

Wingard was awesome today. Absolutely love watching him play. Surprised he only got 98, 5 goals (3 of them in the important 3rd quarter), 17 possessions with 0 clangers so should have got more. Rest will do his ankle good and he will come back after the bye firing.

Hey Rowsus I know I've asked you about Grimes just the other day, but now that he's scored a 29 he's got to go. Would trading him out to Taylor next week be a good swap? Or maybe pay a little to grab Bartel?

It's an opportunity, that's for sure. You will get just a little cash back if you do it this week, and it will cost you a little cash if you do it for round 10. If you have no other pressing/urgent trades, then it is a strong option.

Rowsus sir, are you doing the breakevens table this week? Only asking because lockout isn't finished until Monday night.

Hi Ollye,
it depends on how desperate you are for an extra 10 - 12 points from this round. If you are travelling poorly, it might be worth the risk. If you are doing ok, you might want to bank the 118. His recent and historical records against St Kilda isn't good.
