Pretty hard to cut now that he's dropped over 100k... I think you need to get religious and hope (pray) that he (and the Saints) find some form.
Would be buying Roo this week if i didnt have him... Thought he deserved 85 at min for last weeks game against Carlton... Keep him!
surely not - it was the same with gibbs once the price had dropped u gotta stick with them. im getting roo this week in my dt ...... melb-hawks and freo coming up........ just look at avg against these sides (Melbourne 124) (hawks 124.8) (freo 132)
Honestly I would his confidence is shot he can't kick goals and is always against 3 in the marking contest, and the saints are struggling big time this week, can't see him bouncing back honestly
fez - if he was a mid i would - but who to pick up forward - already got - (pav-goodes-rok-buddy-stevie.j and sylvia) ....... the only one i would consider is chappy ......... i got goodes and rok - last week they had shockers 112pts from them 2. - . this week rok 125 - goodes 110..... just cant c any safe fwds - hope roo can turn it around
It's hard to keep him at the moment but the thing is: 1. He got concussed against Adelaide 2. Midfield is not delivering to him as well as the past couple of years Knowing that if I trade him he'll score 100+. Saints have dropped off. A lot. Thing is I don't want to burn a trade where other options need to be looked at (Grimes' replacement, upgrades, etc.)
I'm keeping Roo. I saw enough in the 2nd half to give me SOME faith. (Although I saw that a few weeks ago against Bris also.) Form is temporary, class is permanent. I can't chase my losses but at $405K I'm happy to have a player capable of 110+. And agree with torcida, is your trade target good enough to warrant a trade?
when u pay 500k+ for someone at the start of the yr - u set and forget seen ppl trading roo for the likes of fyfe - this week rok 17% after rok pulled huge score on the weekend........ or gibbs for murphy or heppell :S ... its like chassing last weeks points......... would anyone consider bringin in rok or goodes for roo last week
I'm sticking with Nick. Got him at the start, and he has lost too much money as it is to get rid of him. Sure I could trade him, but who to? For someone the same price, not sure they will be much better and at Reiwoldt's best, probably wouldn't reach that mark either. I also don't like the idea as using him to 'upgrade' to someone else. I'm going to stick with him, when I have fixed up the rest of my side, and he is still struggling, I could later in the season. But for now, I will stick with him, and use my trades else where.
definate keeper because if you didn't have him you'd be looking to bring him in this week at such a low price.
I'm keeping him, but seriously thinking of putting him on the bench as emergency; play Tapscott and Petrie. At least till he gives us a decent score.
I dont have NRoo but have suffered similary with Brad Green. Played on the wing on the weekend and found some form. Lyon has predicted this for NRoo if they struggle through the middle - which means easy points given his engine (enter the reinvented Richo-man). I am now excited about my cheap as chips Matera>NRoo upgrade next week.
Last three weeks and next four games Roo 86, 47, 63, Haw, Melb, Freo (WA), Coll Tapscott, 84, 53, 104, Nth, StK, Car, Ess Petrie 149, 68, 102, Melb, Bris, Syd (h), Ade (h) Live in hope of a huge turn around or a more likely gradual improvement.
