Cheers. I faded Jackson but kept Brayshaw

Sometimes we get it right, sometimes we don't.
But Jackson might get 75 next week, while Brayshaw goes 125.

One game doth not make a season! (I'm holding J.Clark)

 

[Plugger35]

Neale needs to lift or he could become Bont next week.

 

[Scythe]

10 Minutes to decide if Houston is a trap…. Thought?!

Trap if you're picking him hoping for a top-six defender, not a trap if you're picking him as a guy who'll outperform his price point.

Not for me as he won't make enough cash to really be worth flipping, but a solid placeholder nonetheless.

 

[Maybe Tomorrow]

Everything is happening on the other wing from Serong so far

 

[Raveneyes]

ZZ Top is quite a looker

Gina Carrano biting her lip. Possibly the best gif ever created.

 

[kaiserchief13]

What happened to A Brayshaw? Unhappy buyer here

Seemed to always be manned up by Geelong, and when he wasn't Freo players refused to give him the ball, especially Serong. To trade him this week or hope he rebounds and teams man up on Serong instead is the question.

 

[jumperfan]

Just realised I have Gulden, f yeah

Was on the Bench for ages. Must have popped up to the hospitality suite to entertain the players wives.

That’s the answer I think I needed to hear.

he's just wandering on the wrong side.

****en Dean *****

 

[TasSixer]

The Crows have great colours, but christ do they roll out some shocking clash strips.

Wouldn't be the crows without a terrible away strip tbh

 

[Plugger35]

Hopefully the Pies v Crows game is a good game as the Swans v Lions game looks like being a fizzer.

 

[No eye deer]

True but it doesn't explain why Freo were leading by so much early on against a team that was humiliated last week.

Just Freo being Freo.

Well it does though.
It’s called match fitness.
We ran out of legs.

 

[TasSixer]

**** Grundy hurt

 

[Sydney Kicker]

Match fitness is fitness. First game effect should be about rusty skills not fitness.

 

[kaiserchief13]

McAndrew started well

 

[SavDog23]

Lions players and fans gonna be traumatized from "We Like To Party" playing after every goal if they end up getting belted here lmao

 

[JHF1870]

 

[Maybe Tomorrow]

FFS Naicos

 

[hsaklag]

Captain Naicos looking good so far

You’re kidding, right?
You can’t replicate the real thing.
Look at the stats for zero round teams winning their next week.
Anyway, the game day thread probably isn’t the place for this debate.
