How would we know?
When he was playing in the backline last season he always appeared on the team sheets as a forward.
You just close your eyes and hope.

GWS game style has also been less productive this year for defenders, but yeah one to keep an eye on it Riccardi comes in!

Yet to play: K Chandler, C Oliver, J Hopper and N Daicos
192 points from my five forwards (Horne-Francis, Sheezel, Phillipou, Phillips and Roberts) at an average of 38.4 with Chandler still to come and Greene’s 77 stuck on the bench. With the Miller injury, I better direct an upgrade to the forward line instead of a mid and possibly look to target Touk later in the season if I can hold onto Hopper for an extended period.

Feel for most people this week, but I've somehow avoided most of the carnage. Chose to not boost and just get Cogs this week rather than Touk which no one could have predicted turning out so well. Other than bringing Roberts in who was on my bench, I've chosen the right rookies on field and got Bont VC score.
Currently 1797 with Daicos, Hopper, Setterfield, Taranto and Redman to play. Predicted 2296, but could sneak over 2300 which I think will be a big score for the round - haven't seen any other predicted scores in the leagues I'm in that are above 2250.

I think it might be good for us. And not just because I'm a non-holder.
But if Clarry came out with a 110 or less, I think it would help a lot of people write the round off as some sort of freak round that you get every couple of years or so and could put the emotion behind them faster. I mean let's face it... its objectively a freak round but I think many of us are still feeling it a bit too much. The fact that they are dragging it out over 5 days isn't helping but I blame all the non-Essendon/Collingwood teams who kept pining for a piece of the ANZAC Day match pie that we'd built up over the decades. You know, if you could have just let those 2 clubs enjoy the fruits of their hard work and devotion to the day, then you'd only have 2 players left to play, would pretty well know what score you were going to post and could easily blame the wait on 2 of the teams you like hanging it on the most. Chicken dinner.
Just thank your lucky stars that next year it will be on a Thursday. My 50 cents is on some push to make it a night game. We love night games because you can put more gambling ads on around the telecast including the 2 minute sponsor segment where Nathan Brown talks odds to all the teenagers watching. For mine, Collingwood v Essendon at the G at 2:30 and whoever they want to play the night game. Annual leave day on the Friday with a match in the evening, then a regular weekend of matches only without the Sunday twilight game because of the extra Thursday game and because nobody likes the slot anyway and it will help get our fantasy scores out at a decent hour. Not a bad weekend
Edit: Oh, you said if Clarry put up a 10. Well yeah ok... we'd probably have to hide the sharps in that case!
