Quantum - go for it! Bang, bang - dbl upgrade! Will improve your team sooo much! Pwnsc - IMO Judd & prob ROK , but both could be a flip of a coin. DC - Sylvia has a huge be, so I'd hold off on him if you can. And ROK is an interesting choice... I was planning to bring him in this week too but have changed my mind. If going for overall, he is a great choice I reckon, cause Sydney have quite an easy draw for remainder of season.. And if going for league, a strong case could be made for him too, as Sydney have bye on multiple-bye weekend, and they have one of the best draws over sc finals too... But something I realised last night is that they play gc on a league bye weekend, and I want to take full advantage of players playing against gc, so I wont be getting anymore syd or stk players personally. Sylvia a good choice IMO as Melb tick all boxes. Play gc, have bye in league bye, and have a good sc finals fixture... But they do play gc in the sc finals, and you gotta get there first. This week I'm prob gonna bring in fyfe for mundy. Does anyone have any gos on fyfe? I haven't been keeping a close eye on him, but have the impression he is an injury waiting to happen... Has he got his fitness and strength back? Is he too big a risk? Can anyone fill me in on him?
Wonder if Jack's return to Swans midfield will affect ROK's scoring? He was averaging 94 up until Jack was injured.
Knowing ROK, I think somebody farting in the members could effect his scoring... but I have him anyway Not much talk about downgrade options here? Who is on the bubble with some decent JS? Strauss and Howe contenders?
@DC - looking at Chaps because Fyfe and the Freo injury curse have me even more worried! If I drop Zaharakis, what good MPP's are running around? Or should I just move Mzungu back to the mids for this week, and bring in a fwd for Zah's 300k plus my spare 50k?
@ anthak - wouldn't you want a pure mid to replace Mundy instead of a DPP? I'd want Fyfe in my fwd line not my mids.
Possibly... Still considering that. But just want to get an understanding of his injury woes first... Is he over them?
what if u got mundy but havent got enough $ for a premium mid (500+k) . think likes of boomer and fyfe would be 1st choices
<blockquote>Quote from thegob on June 15, 2011, 12:25 anyone know if adcock will miss gamea and if so, how many?</blockquote> Will be confirmed by Brisbane after the surgery today. I'd imagine 2-3 weeks. Also hearing a rumour that Zac Smith may not play on the weekend. If true, that'll make it tough on sides still carrying Sandilands
Or, torcida, who do one down one up and use the left over cash for an upgrade next week (or futher into the future) and don't settle for second best. I was originally thinking of going: Thompson - Tuohy Selwood - Ablett THEN Lower - Scotland/Enright next week. However now I'm thinking of going: Illes - Dan Nicolson (or other non-playing M/D DPP) Selwood - Ablett THEN Lower - Scotland/Enright. Option 2 allows me to open up (I don't have Hibberd/Heppell/Jacobs) M/D DPP which will not only cover the zero I'm going to cop if Bewick doesn't play (which he most likely will not) and sets up DPP for the season which is already seeming instrumental. Downside to this option is I lose bench coverage in Illes. However I still have some in Mzungu. I know Nicholson has been dropped and may not play again, but he may play, and he is there for DPP mostly. I'd really like some opinions of this if you could!

I've seen Fyfe a few times over the past month and while he looks a quality footballer, he also looks like he's one heavy knock away from missing weeks. So I decided that I'd steer clear of him (and I've already got Pavlich)
@ Anthak Fyfe's got a bung shoulder and the bye can't come fast enough for him. Having said that, given the state of the Docker's list at the moment they are struggling to find 22 players week in week out. So, unless he's completely stuffed they will keep putting him on the park.
i have to hope that Bailey plays or else ill cop a doughnut in ruck with Smithy out probably going: McKernan>Dalhaus/Howe Mundy>Boyd
Well I planned on trading out Heppell for Swan before Heppells price dropped even more but with Smith out Ive had to play Heppell. Apart from Smith does anyone know who else is missing this week? heard Adcock might miss too
Hey guys, new member. Just a question, if in the top 100 how many trades would be enough this stage of the year? considering maybe only 1 or 2 upgrades left barring injury

They haven't given a accurate estimate on how long he will be out for. My guess is probably 1-2 weeks. Selwood goes this week, need to inject some more quality into my side. Going for league, 185k in bank. Mids: Selwood, Pendles, Swan, Murphy, Thompson, Heppell, Cross, Smith, Prestia Fwds: Fyfe, Buddy, Pav, JRoo, Goodes, Darling, Mzungu, Smith, Siposs, Richo. Can I get thoughts on the following: 1) Do I offload Cross or Darling this week (Cross is now a tagging SC spud and Darling seems to have rookie blues) 2) Who do I get for Selwood - Ablett is the obvious choice, no more byes etc but this will affect who I can afford for Cross / Darling HELP!
Embley at only 418K has to be considered, think I might trade Heppell for him and find the cash to get Swan next week
