Bolton last night. 3 kicks, 3 handballs, 2 marks, 3 frees against. 20 SC points. A spud last season and still one now. Somehow Higgins can't get a game before this guy. A method to the madness I guess, but it escapes me.
Far from a spud. Turns out small forwards struggle to impact games consistently when they first start playing.
Not really smart to pick him for supercoach. Hes infront of Higgins because he played very well in the JLT and has a year on him.

Going with Keefe as my non playing rookie for the VC loophole. Swapped Cameron for English which means I may be left without a loophole if Keefe gets games. Too risky? Surely someone will get dropped.

I'm aiming to win the $50k lol
Aiming for a top 2k finish, last couple years have been shocking. Going to overseas for a few months mid season though, so I won't be watching any footy and things like late outs will destroy me. But yeah, giving it a crack
**** SC. It will be here waiting for you every year when you get back. Enjoy the travel and pack in as much as you can. You never know when it will be your last trip. Don't want to waste your time with something as common as SC

Worried about the same thing. Do I keep Dusty's VC score or go with 30 listed players? Cash generation or points?

I'm going for 30 playing this week and will trust Mitchell with the C. I'm only going for league wins and I expect I'll have a loophole donut or two by round 3

What are peoples thoughts on Geelongs Fogerty vs Barry? Who are their competition who are out of the side atm. Who has better JS/Scoring potential?

Have Barry at the moment, but will he last? Will Fogerty last?

I didn’t pick Murphy last night and still have Lachy Keefe as my last defender. I already have Naughton, Doedee, Finlayson, is O’Connor a good option or will he just get dropped next week?


On iPhone using BigFooty.com mobile app
O'Connor is just about your only other reasonable priced player who is playing, so if I were you I would take him as an option. As everyone says, you will always have a non-playing rookie come Round 4 or 5. Better having a playing option to corrective trade to rather than a bloke not playing who you know you have to swap!

Fogarty is the better bet

didnt play JLT2 due to a head knock. can play small fwd or midfield and you would think Gregson/Parsons are under the same amount of pressure as Fog.

Barry is first out for Gray IMO

Fogarty will probably be out for Cockatoo shortly. That said Gregson will need regular resting. But i dont like Fogarty's JS.
