Poor guy; top 5 2014 draft pick yet to make debut in now 2 years.
Poor lad.

FREMANTLE INJURY UPDATE

As a non owner, this makes me nervous!

Oh goodness. Don't know what to do. Surely having Danger, Pendles, Gaz, and Rocky is enough captains choices.

I think those four are more than enough to start with for captain options. Adding Fyfe to that list is just too much money spent on the mids and will be to the detriment of the remainder of a team.

Just my opinion anyway.

I'm not sold Ben after all the mids are where the big points are scored

See my thinking has been more along the lines of yours more recently Brettthejett.
As I can only come up with 3 DEF and 3 FWD 'premiums' that I am wanting to start, plus 2 set-and-forget RUCs, I think it is reasonable to spend big bucks in the MIDs.
My thinking is, I'd rather spend big where I am confident in nailing guys who will finish top 10, rather than gambling on guys in DEF and FWD who I am not so certain of nailing. Therefore why I am happy to see a few rounds before upgrading in those positions compared to the MIDs and RUCs.

I agree that big bucks need to be spent in the mids but all of Fyfe, Danger, Pendles, Ablett and Rocky is just too much cash spent there imo. You would still be spending big bucks by picking four of them.

I'm actually having trouble spending the cash! Fyfe is the only one priced at what would traditionally be our Captain's picks. Ablett and Pendles are their cheapest for years and Rockliff is priced like a breakout candidate. I don't currently have Fyfe because I think my Captains positions are all filled but I think starting with the 4 highest priced mids this year is not unreasonable.

 

[Nathan]

Not worried about not starting Fyfe at all.

I started him last two seasons and he's been great but he's been recovering/acquiring injuries over pre-season. Most are dismissing talk of him playing more forward but I'm not, Fyfe even brought it up on Brownlow night.

I think Danger,Gaz,Pendles & Rocky will avg more.

This guy just has no luck!

This guy just has no luck!

I was looking forward to potentially starting him too!

I think a black cat crossed his path as he was walking under a ladder causing him to drop and break a mirror he was holding, all of which happened on Friday the 13th...

 

[THCLT]

I think most had him on their rookie radar, especially after talk out west that he's training as a running HB role.

Hope this doesn't end it for him, but he must of walked under a very big ladder...terrible luck for the guy!
