Rocky rebroke his ribs 8 weeks after he initially did. I'm not sure how badly he did them the second time. However one would assume that it would be less badly if the time out is less. Especially given how precautious you would think Brisbane doctors would be with the season over and the long term future of Rocky at the centre of their decision making. I would be 95% sure his ribs won't be rebroken (although the first time I would have said 98).

I don't think I'll pick him. I'm most likely be going the safer option with Beams this week. What I'm concerned with Rocky is his mental state of having broke his ribs twice (although it is Rockliff after all) as well as match and general fitness he would have lost. If Ablett doesn't look to becoming his former superpower and a rocky his I'd consider it. However my trade plans allow me to trade in an expensive mid with no real immediate benefit of saving the money.

Will defiantly consider If his tackle number get back up. I've been I think relatively lucky this year so maybe I am feeling lucky PUNK!!

cracking team. When you say no benefit, if you were to do cripps to rocky (and hope no injury), you could then do boston to hodge and swing him into back line (if you go hamling/lever to a dpp rookie).

Julian de Stoop ✔ @JDESTOOP80_FOX
Dale Morris will play for @westernbulldogs despite fractured jaw. Tom Boyd returns but Jordan Roughead to miss @FOXSportsNews

No mention of Hamling (for now!)

Mark stevens just tweeted:

Roughead, McLean, Honeychurch won't fly, Hamling unlikely ... Big Ayce back as cover? Crameri? Tom Boyd, I'm told, still sore.

Ahaha thanks. I like that but I don't like Hodge as a footballing character (maybe I'm just sick of hawthorn being good). Good option but I've got Higgins in the fwd who I want to swing back (Saad & Smith D6).
I Have 9 trades and would like to make 4 trades in the next three weeks or so to finish with the option of one luxury trade.
Dependant on teams and coming weeks form/injury but the idea is.
General idea:
Boston ----> Payne (fwd/mid donut)
Cripps -----> Beams
Hamling (swing Higgins to defense)----> Manyard (in mids)

Dumont--->Rocky /other cheap mid
Or Krak---> Any mid

Luxury trade Lever ---> Adamson

So anyone know the latest on Hamling, how long he's likely to be out for? Worth offloading?

landed heavily on his back late in the last qtr last week,assume he is sore.
flight to cairns wouldnt be ideal so perhaps just precautionary?

My worry is that he may find it hard to get back into the side now. Talia is back this week so unless he truly stinks it up, Hamling may struggle to break back into the team next week and beyond.

I'll be barracking for Richmond to kick 5.25 tonight so he can unleash 5 torps a quarter.

he he. Yep. Should be fun to see whatever happens. Kick it to Casboult to mark in centre square and then onto onto Menzel and goal.
Would like to see that set play brought in.
