I might eat my words but I need to stay strong and ignore Cripps game tonight - I'm not sold

I worry about his durability - over the last few years he always picks up a knock in every game that he then has to battle through the game with.

He has looked great at times tonight but need to think about the big picture, I can see many jumping on him but I am not convinced myself.

I'll jump on that wagon.
No Walsh, still hasn't had his problems flare up, and it seems inevitable they will.
He won't win me over, no matter what he does tonight.
He's been a top level SC pick 2.5 times, and he's coming into his 9th season.
I'll go as far to say, from a season long SC pick, he's one of the most overrated Prems we've seen in recent times!

Gawn score seems lowish, probably because of the 50 against.

Fantasy score, this intercepted marks have to be worth a few more. Also, B team at Champion Data on tonight and they didn't pick up that verbal abuse free kick against Gawn.

 

[Blaze]

Horrible injury history but is playing his role really well right now

While it sounds horrible he must be discussed. The role could not be better and it suits his attributes. Role..tick...price...tick.. def status round 6....tick....injury history...cross...

Enough ticks there to shortlist for sure

I can't see how that team will lose a game.

Hewett getting lots of the pill ........... but not doing one other thing!
No marks, tackles, frees etc.
Add that to 5:12 K:Hb ratio, at $400k he's looking like fools gold to me.

What is the ratio for Olipig.. not trolling but just curious in the comparison ..

Agree with most of this.
I will add, I don't think anyone player should be picked, based on the hope/assumption they will gain some DPP come the end of Rnd 6.

41DT to 62SC at Half-Time

Haha - I didn't want to say it - I can just imagine how many 'ignore lists' you're on now

Oliver is 4:12, but has a higher CP rate, and is throwing those point scoring accessories.

This I totally agree with ...

 

[Santoz]

Oscar McDonald not looking like scoring massively, but looks like he'll get a fair few games playing a key defensive post.

 

[Shaunpro1]

Hewett plays his role but I still havent seen anything that convinces me hes any more than an 80-100 guy.

Thanks .. trying to split Olipig and Petracca for value ...

Yep ... I know I shouldn't really be exploring this path but am ... need the cash to strengthen the backline ..

Cripps shakes off Gawn, kicks his third and sticks it up @Rowsus in the stands

The thing in the back of my mind is what rookies do you have to take up the slack .... my cupboard is looking pretty bleak ..

Durdin off injured, calf injury

Still will be a forward Round 6 , so substract one tick.

How does Weitering affect his role ?

 

[dlanod]

Durdin off injured, calf injury

Of course he is

 

[Peter56]

If they are going to umpire every game like this. It will be hard to watch.
