Thanks mate, good to hear a Blues supporter back me on Gibbs. Slightly worried about a Robbo tag though :S When's murphy back?
Could be wrong but I think he will be back against the saints in round 20. He was listed as "2 weeks away" at the start of last week so hopefully he will be back, we've missed him. Even if he is not back, I have a feeling Robbo may go to Cripps. Fair chance he will still go to Cripps even if Murphy is back

He shut down Gibbs pretty easily last time so it's actually the main thorn holding me back picking him. Ward a much safer pick as he won't get tagged.

Ward mate, he is POD enough and far more likely to avg 110+ with the easy GWS run imo
Ward's at 40% ownership at the top so he's pretty popular! He seems to be up and down but his downs are 80-90s which are bearable at least. Looking at the pattern this is the "big" week so I might be jumping on at a good time

Yea i'd wait a week on Dahl.

I've (somehow) held him all this time, so will loop him and Libba from the bench on Friday night.

Lycett v Lynch.

Lycett offers the solace of cover, if I have forward cover, if things go pear shaped in the next few weeks. Forward cover is Hams who is doing ok.

Lynch may score more, but not heaps more.

Am leaning to Lycett for cover on each line leaving 2 trades. What do you think.

If you still have 2 trades left after this trade, i would be inclined to get the player who you think is going to score the most. You still have the 2 trades up your sleeve if a ruck gets injured. At the moment Lynch is the best scoring player, and I'm not sure West Coast is playing well enough for Lycett to score as well as a forward as he does as a ruckman.

Jacobs vs Mumford vs any ruck besides Goldstein/Gawn/Martin.

As an added note, what's the reason behind Jacobs' lowered output this year?

I'd go Brodie Grundy! He's had an awesome month. Jacobs would be tempting too but he has Martin, Sandi & Nic Nat to come.

Brodie has maybe NN (if he plays) and the Bulldogs as potentially hard games but has Rich, Suns and Hawks as easier ruck games.

Dahlhaus vs Gunston?

Have to pick one this week, do I trust that Dahlhaus will return to his 105 average? No wallis so more mid time for sure, but worried about returning from injury. He also had 139 on the cats at Skilled Stadium last year!

Gunston. Pity you can't wait a week for Dahlhaus. Gets the rust out and has a nice price drop.

As usual, everyone tells me to make the logical choice ie: Gunston, ie not Yeo or Sinclair, but I'm still so tempted to do the exact opposite! :p
