[Under The Dome]

Robinson is playing tonight and is a permanent fixture, agree, probably between Mathieson or Smith

Yeh got the names mixed up sorry. Was Ellis-Yolman I was thinking of. Sharp has come on now.

Maybe Robertson

 

[Beijing_Sting]

Rayner looks like he has done his knee

. Oh noooooo. Damn

 

[Crowls]

How good would Dunkley have been at Essendon?

absolutely perfect for bombers. maybe next year when they dogs need to find cap space

Anyone dropping Neale? I might.

dropped him before this weekend as I look to balance prems and cash. he was one most likely to not make ly avg. Watching tonight he looks underdone at the moment as well. macrae replaces him as dont see treloar affecting him, plus new rules favor guys who can do inside/outside like him. dunkley looked good but think he may be the player most affected by treloar.

Rowell with 15 touches and 60 SC from 68% TOG.

 

[Pieman17]

Rowell with 15 touches and 60 SC from 68% TOG.

Hard to pick a bloke at 500k with 4 games. No matter how highly I rate him.

 

[Crowls]

Rowell with 15 touches and 60 SC from 68% TOG.

didn't want to start Rowell as my thinking is we are asking him to do something never done before. avg 100+ in first full year. guy is just a football genius.

Yep, very understandable.

Might have to throw the SC rule book out with this kid though.

He’s just elite.

Fox reporting the Lions think it's an ACL... confirmation tomorrow obviously but that isn't promising...

 

[Vicwood]

Anyone dropping Neale? I might.

Choose

Alternatively, Cripps to Rowell allows Dusty to Dunkley

Yes.... decision time for M5.

 

[Lgndhen23]

i will never understand the people that say we cant judge a bloke off 4 games

when it is quite clear the kid is gonna be an absolute star, if 9 brownlow votes in 4 games isnt enough, uve gotta be in denial

this isnt to do with supercoach really, just in general haha

 

[McLovin]

Hard to pick a bloke at 500k with 4 games. No matter how highly I rate him.

Also a substantial difference in intensity between the sides tonight in the sort of slippery conditions that aren't great for a game with nothing on the line.

 

[Shannon]

Rowell with 15 touches and 60 SC from 68% TOG.

& 12 of those touches are contested possessions.

Kid is an absolute machine, looks like he has got rid of the rust from last weekend very quickly.

Just to be a bit of a wet blanket- Swallow and O'Meara looked like generational talents early on too and now they're a fair way off that. The Suns have a history of demanding too much from young players whose bodies aren't ready to handle the load of being key players who get heavy attention from the opposition every week.

 

[Crowls]

Might be no room for Midfielder Laird in my defence this year Defender Laird would smoke these new rules just don't know about Midfielder Laird

That is the sad part about this. Laird would be laughing under these rules as HB, as a mid I think his scores might go down. Still a valid pick though..

 

[Crowls]

Who else trained at the same pub as D Rich over summer. I have seen 35 year old country footballers come back in better nick than this bloke....
