Missed him completely when looking for a < $ 500k mid , chose McGrath instead.

Been monitoring Duncan , Gaff , Parker so Cogs does become interesting.
Don’t mind McGrath. Considered him myself for Yeo but seems to be a combo of under scored and wasteful/panicky at times. Reckon his scoring is a bit dependent on how Essendon perform (stating the obvious).

As others have mentioned, been playing on the ball, with a lot of first touch handballs to a teammate, been following the play forward as well. Now with Taranto back I feel that rookies such as Tom Green may have played their last game for 2-3 games. As he was taking mid minutes off Cogs.
Thanks mate. Come to think of it, he probably won’t be as cheap as I need him to be in 2 weeks as I’ll be grabbing Smith next week (n)

Fumbled it about 20-30 times last night and then everything he did get seemed rushed.

Got enough of it , just needs to tidy up his DE.

If he can go 95-100 average for the rest of the season I will be happy.

Not sure whether it was the opposition or conditions , but the Bombers were lacking their usual run and gun attacking style last night.

Missing Shiel & Stringer didn't help their mids last night , nor English turning it on and the Doggie mids.

Wonder if they give Draper some games.

The club has been desperate too from the start of last year. Then he did his ACL....

Unfortunately, he's still recovering. Though it's good to see how conservative an approach we are taking with him. Played his first scratch match last weekend and played well.

Gary Ablett returning home to Melbourne (to be with wife / child). Will need to quarantine for 2 weeks if he wishes to return at a later date.
Obviously not good the circumstances of Ablett having to go home... but I don’t mind the Eagles having to face Geelong here at home without Selwood & Ablett in a couple of weeks time.

Thanks for that , I guess just need to be careful with him and get a few of these scratch matches into him first.

The ONE time my opponent has Coniglio in their team...he's on track for 150+
The ONE time my opponent doesn't have Neale in their team....Neale comes up against De Boar....and the Giants are still losing!!!!!!!!

Daniels should be suspended for that terrible acting display. Got knocked at the back of his head from Neale and then clutched his forehead.
