Out of curiosity, are you one of the 13,075 that are bringing Spargo in this week? Looks like he came in for Kent (4-5 week injury) or Stretch (omitted) last week.
Nope not trading Spargo in this week but will be considering him when he's on the bubble for sure.

Good thing I didn't start an FD. Sure enough, I have 3 this week - Mirra, Guelfi, Murphy!
Haha yeah! I've been one of the biggest advocates for FD's over the years but i didn;t run with one this year and it didn't take long at all for me to gain a non player (in part because of a poor selection lol).

I'm about to clear out my dead wood and i'll still have a donut!

I passed on Mirra and Guelfi last week and went Higgins - hopefully at 5pm tomorrow he makes the Tigers 22.

I reckon a lot of coaches would be holding Murphy. From reading Big Footy in pre-season he took the spot that had been earmarked for Gallucci (who was injured in February).

Gallucci has played OK the last 2 weeks once he broke into the 22 so Murphy is waiting for a spot to open up - hopefully that is prior to the byes so he can make some more cash and/or provide bye cover.

Wow. With Keefe in, I've got a full team. No donuts, pending Sunday teams. Will have to nail my Captain or bring in a looper.

Sam Maclure on SEN just said he reckons Buddy is still a few weeks away... I guess that means trade...

Chris Fagan confirms Matt Eagles will debut for @brisbanelions on Sunday against @CollingwoodFC. The Recruit has made it!

Considering he's a Cat. B Rookie who won 'The Recruit', I would've expected a basement Rookie price for him and not the $123,900 on offer.

Rookies are only 102k for their first year I'm pretty sure.

When you google bruised heel it comes up with 1-3 weeks to heel
Also mentions if bone is bruised also could be as many as 6 weeks

Prob as good a reason as any to get rid of him now.
Has a break even if 153 so will pick him up sub 500k after the bye

really happy for this guy. massive deal to get to the AFL in a year. think we can use the tall stock down back and all accounts are he's carried on his form from the end of last year in the magoos, which was very very good!

Does that mean Soldo comes in? i.e One huge ruckman for another...


@AFL_PKeane
The AFL advises Mabior Chol has replaced Shaun Grigg (injured) in the Richmond 26-man squad for Sunday's Rd7 match v Fremantle at the MCG. The final 22 will be determined later today.

15:30 - 4 May 2018

Might hurt Nank with a chop out in the ruck
