Absolutely. And that is the $64,000 question. (seriously showing my age there). The issue is which one. And which is why if you got Impey and Ziebell early they now suddenly are worth considering as keepers because they cost very little compared to the risk of taking on the guys we get to choose from now who might not ave much more.
I currently have :-

Dunkley , Impey , Martin , Warner , Ziebell , Zorko

so was thinking due to $$$ restraints I may have to play some of my F/M as mids and look to bring in "value" in Heeney & Sidebottom , possibly even Dixon.

Dunkley now becomes a avenue to Gawn or Grundy.

Just need to get the pen and paper out and workout a trade map for the next few rounds and jump the right way.

Could be long term / surgery required - his shoulder just popped out a second time trying to spoil with no other bodily contact, so it's not looking good.

History is littered with players who've tried to strap up a really loose shoulder and play through it just to injure the shoulder more severely in a tackle or marking contest and Dunkley is a massive key to the Doggies fortunes even with their midfield depth, so I can't see them taking any chances with him personally.
Thanks mate. Disappointing news, but maybe out of adversity can come some opportunity (from a SC perspective). Sucks for Dunks though as he’s been smashing it this season 😢

How so?

Per Sir Swamp Thing:
30+ disposals and 3+ goals in a match in 2021
0= 524 players
1=0
2= Bontempelli

Great kick to handball ratio, good CPR, good disposal efficiency, high metres gained which possibly indicates that most of his kicks are not your typical shallow, backwards/sideways kicks and registers a lot of smothers and contested knock ons.
*disclaimer I love the bont*
3qtr time 82....
First clearance of the last, Bont gets it kicks inside 50 naughton marks

Bont goes to 100

Solid fwd line. Hope you can work out a trade to get the beard. His scoring is awesome and provides a perma captain option. Good luck.

My team is an absolute mess , so I may as well bring him back in , I wonder if the trade loophole will work if I just trade Hickey back out 😀

Not so long ago Heeney was the SCS Poster boy.
Sorry Herb. But all of us human beings have had our time in the sun in some form or another and have been poster boys cobbaarr. But we are just luckier that the spot light isnt/hasnt been shining on us as much. Love your work. All were dealing with as you know, is first world probs. I FARKN love you guys and supercoach. Sorry, Just finished me 2nd bottle of redned and it has me speaking in fork tongues.

Played: J Macrae (C), J Dunkley, C Daniel, A Scott (looped with Jordon via Sloane), M Flynn, J Kelly and T Taranto
Yet to play: E Gulden, C Warner, J Daniher, J Ziebell, P Cripps, S Docherty, T Stewart, D Martin, C Oliver, J Short, H Chapman R Laird, J Impey, B Grundy and M Bergman/F Macrae

Flynn and Daniel both returned this round and will be joined by Oliver and Bergman/F Macrae (undecided on incoming rookie). Solid opening game from those involved but a disappointing start to the season by the duo of J Kelly and C Daniel. Will continue to hold and hopefully they can turn it around quickly. If it is a lengthy absence for Dunkley, then it opens up many possibilities for my side ranging from grabbing Gawn, Neale returning or pocketing $100,000-$200,000+ by selecting T Mitchell/I Heeney to allow Ridley/May to quickly replace an onfield rookie.

Cheers

Rucks are still a problem

Hickey , Flynn / Meek

Fullarton F8

Ridley , Highmore , Jones in defence so probably a non existent bench for awhile , Mansell could be a issue as well so reluctant to trade him in.

Got some calculating to do

Lachie Ash with a 139 tonight is now up to 94 average from 6.
Yes Lachie Dash has had a pretty good fantasy month hasn’t he.

Unfortunately he will have made the majority of his cash growth after this week. So you would need to bet on him being a top 10 DEF from here to justify getting onboard now, and that might be a stretch. Also Whitfield’s imminent return is a variable that needs to be considered.

But his 1600 current owners would be quite smitten right now. (y)
