Hi, Last minute question: N Roo vs Pies or I Smith vs Port? Should I drop Roo? Is Smith a sub risk? Mo.
Personally N.Roo, my reasoning below; 1. Nathan Brown AND Ben Reid can't double team him like they did in the Grand Finals, Reid will probably take him, maybe Tarrant but i can't see them double teaming him again. 2. Heath Shaw can no long smother his kicks for goal on the goal-line. Hope I have helped !!!!!! Jack.

Do you take the risk with Smith or play it safe and cancel out your opponent's score with Roo. I'm going option 2.
Thanks all. I left Roo in the end. We'll see how it shapes up. He has been very disappointing. If it wasn't for Shaw being suspended, the axe was over his head weeks ago. Cheers.
@HudsonFysh Well done going against our advice and taking I.Smith! happy it worked out for you. I went wrong with Hepp v Puopolo and most likely NRoo v Sylvia after his 73. Is seems so easy looking back, Hawks were always going to win easily thus meaning more points and NRoo was probably going to be in a losing side and getting double teamed. Hard to overlook his class though and just look at his stats this year... i actually benched him a few weeks back when he got 120 odd so i couldn't do it again. The bench players/backups are really stepping up in Smith, Mzungu and Puopolo!
At the end of the day the risk here was that I Smith could have been the sub and that would have cost coaches their league game!
