    Is tracking nicely today...just cracked the ton late in the last!

    Anybody kept the faith? I also haven't been watching the game so anybody that has - would especially like to hear your opinion.

    FWIW I kept him, so that's 1 trade saved!

    Yep he dominated my bench also! LiveHQ has him at 113 atm but is probably going to be further adjusted.

    Nice little mooo from the Dick!

    Just curious, why do they do the adjusting? I see some players with fairly low stats but huge scores, but then sometimes they just don't get as high scores as you'd think

    I can't really say I 'kept the faith'. If Goodes hand't have been injured, he was a tough call between Dickson or Cripps for Adams instead. But Goodes did, so Dickson lived and the Supercoach Gods amidst their furious 2012 storm throw a little rainbow at me.

    Had huge wraps on him all the way,
    kept the faith, sweating on the doggies selectors to finally see some sense & reason.
    He's a star in the making, today wasn't a flash in the pan, expect repeat performances.

    Me!

    I kept the faith that he would get another game, despite always being haunted by having Relton Roberts on my bench at the end of 2009 season stuck on two games and killing my entire team. PHEW ;)

    Not sure if this scoring or the previous models will prevail, but I was always sure he would come back.

    Dickson became Treloar for me some weeks ago. Treloar's 96 on the ground makes it bearable this week, but Dickson looks like a good player and handy cow now, if he can get a few games in a row with no vest.

    Mate is bleeding: had the Dickson / Treloar bench in his forwards. That's 209 on his forward bench...

    I'd like to brag about still having him, but have to be honest and say that the only reason he is still there is that I'd already burnt too many injury/correctional trades to justify going Dickson - Adams this week for a loss of 30k.

    As LancePM mentioned I to was having flashbacks to 2009 when I stupidly passed on the JPod on the bubble in order to keep Relton who famously rotted away at F9 stuck on 83,400!

    It was between Ledger and Dickson the other week of who went for Treloar and went with Ledger due to opening up MPP and also by keeping a close eye on the squads of 25 which showed that Dickson was at least around the mark.

    Worst case scenario now with that 113 going into the all important 3rd game is that he will surely get to around 200k just by turning up in the next 2 weeks.

    Almost traded Dickson for Adams last week, but brought in Roughead instead. Dickson's &#36;49,000 rise (and -86 break even) a huge bonus on top of all the big GWS numbers this week. Could be time for a backline downgrade next week, Bugg to Spurr or Brennan perhaps - although not sure of their JS.

    I took the gamble and started him, fair to say it paid off massively.

    Yeah I kept him but on the bench. There was so much carnage going on around him and he just kept his head low out of the firing line. Should have better JS now especially with how the Dogs forwards have been performing.
