Will become Van Rooyen in another week or so, might even get a run as captain this week if all things go to plan.
I'm really contemplating taking Roooo early. With WC in tatters, it could be his best chance at a 100+ score, and if he does, most will trade him in next week, having missed his best score.

Or the way our seasons are going we trade him in and he cops a 4+ week injury first QTR stuck on 14 SC pts. I know which one is more likely the way the season is going.

I don't think I'd field him over Chandler or Sheezel anyway up forward so he's probably just bench cover.

Although maybe there's a way to loop him and take a mid rookie off the field if he goes large... :unsure:

I thought he look amazing, although, felt a large part of his score (50% fantasy wise) came last quarter with Ben Brown subbed off.

I feel you

Feel like I am in a time warp, another year decimated by injuries
You talking about my team (WCE) or my team (SC). Stewart, Jones, Gawn, Darcy Cameron. Hopefully Stocker ok.

Fergus will be more valuable soon when he is on the pine (as a donut) when Mitch Lewis come into side. Has had potential to go big yet keeps hit a ceiling of 50.

Simmo mentioned on AFL 360 that there are 2 unnamed Eagles likely to miss between 4-8 weeks each pending scans.

It seems Chesser is looking like one of those and I wouldn't be surprised if Oscar Allen is the other. His knee looked sore late in the game.

I had already conditioned myself to the fact it was going to be a difficult year, I just want to see some genuine improvement from the young kids now... and then hit the draft hard again.
