Keays understood to be in negotiations for a sponsorship deal with Everyday Greens and Tena Fit, but at the time of going to press, it's not across the line.

Jana would tell him to just own the shart and get on with it, can see them doing some shame-busting awareness raising together. :heart:


 
Pull that trigger and don't look back.

If it makes you feel any better, I'm doing it too after owning TT for one week and turfing him for Dawson.

Darcy Cameron and Thomas both making their returns to my side this weekend.

I can’t remember why now but I remember feeling like I was forced to trade Oliver, that holding wasn’t an option.
sometimes you get lucky.
Very rough for those who held.
In theory, out for maybe 2-3, would have been the early consensus.
Had the Rd 14 bye anyway, Rd 13 most had 20+ premos. Easy top 3 MID on averages.
No significant injury history, good recuoerative powers, early medical prognosis optimistic.
Those who were already low on trades would have had even more.inclination to hold.
There was nothing wrong with the hold in theory, in practice it has been a.disaster for the poor buggers.
 
Just noticed that Jezza has dropped to $395k and has a 178 BE.

Time to bail for a Tarryn Thomas or Himmelberg type, or hope that Jezza is back soon and back to scoring well.

I've only got four trades left and one rookie still onfield so don't want to do an un-necessary sideways :(
 
GM AFL Football Performance Alan Richardson provided an update on Oliver, who has spent time on the sidelines with a hamstring injury.

“Clayton had follow-up scans on his hamstring last week, those scans - in combination with some of our objective markers - have shown he’s not quite ready to progress through the final stages of our return-to-play program,” Richardson told Melbourne Media.

Sounds less promising than comments made in previous weeks tbh. But of course if I trade him out now he will be back next week.

If I don't trade him then then the line they trot out next week will be "He has progressed well and commenced the final stages of the return to play program. He could probably play this week but we have decided to hold him back so that he is cherry ripe for the Brisbane game".

He was 600k earlier in the season, he is going to score well at SOME point when his head has been reattached to his one remaining shoulder. I am looking to trade him IN, in three weeks for a dollar and a Tim tam. You may as well hold, unless he is on field with no cover.

Cheers I can cover him with Windy or Wardlaw or Wilmot or MJ so no drastic measures needed

I thought worse case it's a 4 week hammy. 2 of those were byes that I didn't need him for and his own bye I'd planned for anyway...

If anyone says holding him was the wrong call at the time I'm happy to fight you.

There is a big difference between being available for selection and actually being selected. He's been available for selection all year except for last week.

He’s now more useful as a loophole!

Touk, Weller, Ellis back in form, some others nearing / impressing and making their case for a recall, can't see it happening with Constable, sadly.
Too far back in the queue, not enough runs on the board.
