Hopefully not a repeated topic but can we please talk about the Bulldogs midfielders and their potential impact for the rest of the season?
At the conclusion of this round (following tonight's Adelaide vs. St.Kilda match), Bailey Smith will be priced approximately $413k. There will likely be a lot of people who trade him in as an easy decision and that's fine. However, for the rest of us who are scarce on trades, the question is...is it actually worth bringing him in long term wise?
The Bulldogs other key midfielders and their common positions they may rotate in (please correct me if I've got any of these wrong or if I've missed someone!):
Macrae --> mid/wing
Bont --> mid/forward
Hunter --> mid/wing??
Libba --> mid/forward??
Dunkley --> mid/forward
When Dunkley returns (in about 4-5 weeks time?), would he slot straight back into the mids? Or would he spend some time up forward to get back up to the speed of the game?
Regardless, with Hunter & Dunkley back in the team every week and assuming no other injuries, would there be a negative impact on Smith's scoring output/average?
Hey @Rowsus! If we were to bring in Bailey Smith this week, what would he need to average from here on till the end of the season for it to be considered a "good" trade?
Cheers!

However he does seem like good value given his scoring potential and that is gold this year.
This will occupy my mind for most of the week.
Apologies but I am no help.

Another one to add to the list, a la H Andrews-
P Cripps:
When selected by @Connoisseur (RD12 2019 to RD8 2020): 107.17 from 17 (8/17 below 100, 5/17 120+)
When not selected by @Connoisseur (RD1 2018 to RD11 2019): 118.55 from 33 (8/33 below 100, 14/33 120+)

Man my midfield looks so weak.
Neale, Danger, Viney, Yeo, Simpkin, McGrath, Cripps, Hibberd/Bennell.
Need to get some big hitters in there ASAP. Will try to grab Duncan next week. Need to get Simpkin to the forward line and target Macrae or at least Treloar for my last mid spot. Viney, Yeo, McGrath looks ugly, I just need them to perform.

So Titch & Cripps better be prepared...
He along with Brayshaw , Cerra etc etc are their midfield future.
Walters possibly back against Carlton , if they could leave him and Fyfe forward for the majority of games be very dangerous.
