Danger has been traded out so doesn't come into the equation at all

eg Danger - > Dusty (nah changed mind) Dusty - > Tex Walker

= 1 trade

Is this official, or a glitch? Seems like a strange one. Would have thought there’d have been more buzz about it either way.

With the new virus case in Brisbane I can see more lockdowns happening there. I wonder if this will effect the AFL?

Really hoping this means Meek still plays, and plays ruck

2017 national draft
View attachment 27714

I wonder what the revised top 10 would be; Fremantle seems to have performed the best!

As a Bulldogs supporter there is absolutely no way I would consider swapping Naughton for any (maybe any 2) of the others

 

[Zimmer]

I think this is really important, they need a couple of games and like you say is so important for their confidence.
I mean, Relton Roberts could've been an absolute star and we'll never know now......

Bit easier to back kids in when you have a top 4 team around them. Damien Peverill looked like a champion when he played his first games. He went on to be a solid player because he slotted into a great team. Don’t think Relton Roberts had that luxury. And we saw what happened at the Dees, when they tried to back in their kids with nothing around them. There are many variables on obviously. Don’t think Essendon’s current team would be causing the Port coaching staff any sleepless nights either.

Are you sure😎

Go and do a trade and try it then come back and tell me what happens.

Must not have used your full quota of trades though for it to work

 

[Spifflicator]

What do the two duds in that list have in common? Sigh

David Teague?

Sorry Herb, just joshing you, I hadn’t been thorough and read the whole thread - and wanted to see what would happen if you went bonkers.

For the record, I won’t be trying it unless I’m desperate... fair loophole though, and one that would definitely help with teams being named piecemeal as they are now.

I give it an hour max before someone else queries it...

Meek will very likely play ruck with Darcy playing forward.

OUT: Hamling IN: Chapman
OUT: Pearce (who was playing fwd) IN: Darcy (who will play fwd)
OUT: Henry IN: Wilson (not like-for-like so some magnets will get thrown around)

 

[Zimmer]

Hadn't thought of that. Even more complex. Has anyone actually asked Virtual Sports?
They can't close the loophole during the year as it effectively changes the game after it's started.

Didn’t stop them last year.

Probably a Watson/Conca type for Wilson.

Pretty sure I read yesterday that Tobe Watson was injured, maybe a rolled ankle or something. Although sounds like he probably gets up with Henry injured?

Oh yes, Henry is out. That will be the third out.
