    I'd play anyone with a ruck status in any league and be grateful at the moment.
    Misfits injury list reads:
    Def - Rich, Williams, Webster (Now add Haynes)
    Mids - Murphy, Kennedy, Kelly
    Fwds - Elliott, Venables (Fantasia apparently now in doubt also)
    Ruck - Ryder (Longer lost his spot through injury and now can't get it back)
    Most of those are best 15

    Not doing much better in any other league

    It would be kind of fun to try to figure out which side would triumph in a match between the the MIS(sing) - as in injured - and the FITS.

    If I were you, I'd figure out whatever it is you did to upset @Tracey and then buy the requisite amount of wine (I'd suggest chocolate or flowers, but let's be honest - it'll be wine :p) that you need to in order to make things right, and then ask her for the collection of Misfits voodoo dolls.

    I've understand Caddy and Vlastuin are going to be out for Richmond tomorrow night, so for transparency's sake I'm gonna wander in and try to rejig my team so I have some sort of emergencies covering something or other.

    I'm not sure how I'm going to do it so Caddy is covered but just so you know, @Len , that my team is going to alter.

    Perfect storm of injuries this week of all weeks. Damn these semi split rounds :(

    Also @Len, I'm still in the knockout comp ... do you know if the other leagues have split lockouts too? If I can change a team to cover Caddy and someone else from a different league can't that's not really fair.

    Nah, that's not going to work, now I think I might have someone OOP.

    (Goes back to drawing board, will edit team later on once full teams are released)

    Who has Vlastuin? Might need to alert them to the out as well.

    @chris88 I have Vlastuin, thanks for the update. I have got emergency cover with Naughton who played so as long as Lever plays tomorrow night I will have cover and field four defenders if Vlastuin does not play.

    Not the worst problem to have but depth is proving problematic at the Vultures, missed Jaegers 140+ score last week, missed Fiorinis 127 and Deledios 151 this week. Think I now have the confidence in Lids to give him a game next week now though, great to see him back playing good footy touch wood!

    Good to hear mate.

    I don't know what to do because if I alter my team, it alters my team for knockout and if the other leagues don't have changed lockout rules, that's an unfair advantage to me.

    I'm tempted to go into the knockout thread and let @TheTassieHawk know that I'll just concede the game ... that might be the best way forward.

    Ah, thanks Len.

    OK, I might have to just re-look at things tonight once teams are named. Right now I have a situation where Caddy is in defence, swapped with Astbury and Goddard I think. But I reckon I've made a mess of it or done something I shouldn't have, so I'm going to have to change it.

    Don’t worry at all about knockout. Every league has differing conditions and everyone knows that.

    Thanks everyone for your help. Thanks @TheTassieHawk too! Have fixed the team and not forced to do something slightly dodgy like having Caddy OOP up back.

    Have bunged him in the mids and have Poholke's score to get me by!

    The ORFFA coach's curse of having to make decision Fitzy. It is a first world problem. Not a bad place to be compared to the Commish only having 12 afield. I am guessing there are others who might like to field 12?
