I'm trying to make myself read this as they will "stick with what they are doing" - not who's doing it......so more centre square time for Barlow and less for the cabbages who were in there the last two weeks........

That's a great glass half full attitude there mobya, mine however is half empty

It is at the moment - come Sat evening, said glass could be smashed on the floor in a pool of beer!

This is not the first time rosco has pulled this stunt, anyone remember greg broughton? A few years back he was put into the midfield during the preseason, did really well suckered me into picking him as a defender and come the start of the season vanished back into a back pocket in a non SC friendly role. At one point i think he even played as defensive forward surely the worst role possible in SC! Thanks Ross. Unfortunetly i have too many other spot fires to put out so barlow has to survive for at least this week.

In the absence of Best Buys maybe a blog thread where we can keep trade talk each week as opposed to round review?

Rocky is out, who should I bring in?

Thumb Up: Luke Parker
Thumb Down: Matt Priddis

Thanks

I do very much remember that and got burnt as well

so wondering if i can help someone sort out my scrambled brain

option 1 -
trade out barlow & rockliff, bring in johannisen & kennedy - bank cash 461k- grab johannisen before he goes up but risk a lower score with a harder game this week against the hawks...

option 2 -
trade out barlow & rockliff, bring in gray & kennedy - bank cash 280k - great option for VC loop, and not too much cash sitting on bench. Issue is if Gray doesn't do much better than JJ then that's heaps more cash spent for same result.

Option 3 -
trade out rockliff & dunkley, bring in johanson & kennedy - bank cash 73K- Less trading by keeping Barlow. Big price drop but keeping him is more about the bet that Ross Lyon will put him back in midfield.

Option 4 -
trade out barlow & dunkley, bring in johannisen & kennedy - bank 28k - this strategy mainly involves keeping the faith with rocky.. and one less trade long term as well.

Thoughts? it's really about johanissen vs gray (cash factor too) & buring a trade vs keeping the faith with Barlow.. In all these scenarios kennedy comes in.
