    Well, he cost me one league match. Done for the year in that (5th V 8th). Nathan Foley is also GONE!

    How'd you all go?

    Freo are GAY. No wonder they grab ex PA players

    He's been a great rookie pickup and got injured chin up

    Really at best Lower should have been your D8... Cant afford to start those sort of players in SC finals... (High scores one week low the next)

    I have 5 trades left. have the week off in all my leagues.

    my trading plan....
    week 22:
    - nroo to franklin - pro - before nroo drops and franklin shoots up in price, con - franklin round 24 rest)
    - Broughton to rookie - pro - cash grab - con - broughton smashes massive scores

    Week 23
    - Pedersen to Bock

    Week 24
    - Boyd to Nick dal santo
    - s thompson to scotland

    am I a genius or completely insane?

    @damnfunky, essentially your wasting 2 trades to trade Broughton into Bock.
    seems like a waste for me, Broughton is afreak and will no doubt produce some more big scores before the season is out.
    Cant see the point in making that trade, when he'll score pretty similar to Bock anyway.
    The rest sound very good though! :)

    Not so sure about Broughton ... he is back in a defensive role (have a look at his scores earlier this year) and with Mundy very likely to be selected there is little chance of Broughton playing midfield again, although with the Dockers I don't think they know where they are supposed to be playing and I am a member :( PS ... I aslo have Broughton in my SC Team :(

    Watch your mouth buddy ;) - there are Freo supporters round here you know!!!!

    Oh, and I highly doubt that you would've been barracking for Lower to get 35 possessions and 3 goals against your own club ;)

    *speech cut short*

    P.S - Who did you have on the bench????
    Don't worry, I'm angry too ;), had him ahead of Adcock, Adcock did shite but another 50 points would've won me 2 extra league games so similiar to you mate.

    and lower did get subbed to add to that!!!!

    Also, Broughton smashed it in the first half with 15-odd disposals, and moved down back late in the match, i saw him on Betts and Garlett at stages..

    I kept Lower on because haven't traded out Newman yet, which cost me a league game, but Lower won me a few league games when he pulled out a couple of monster scores this year. There was always more of a chance of Lower scoring 100 vs 10, so just very unlucky, especially being a final. I am more disappointed with Hodge to be honest.

    Whats people thoughts on Suckling vs Gibson vs Jonco#k?
    Need to fill my D7 position (have pedersen at the moment).
    Already have Goddard, Gibbs, Lids, Broughton, Fisher, Birchall.

    Have about 402K to play with, last trade. Need to get some decent coverage for Gibbs bye in rnd 23.

    Thanks.

    Always hesitant to write anything with expletives in it with the insane IT regime running here at work :)

    Thanks for the advice.

    I was leaning towards Suckling, purely based on the hawks run home.

    @phil_nev

    Suckling > Johncock for mine atm based on Hawks run home - although the last few games Johncock has pushed forward late in matches to good effect.

    Another alternative is looking at Bock, been in solid form recently & scoring well.
