Thought this deserves it's own thread as it seems to be coming up in almost every other one.

What is everyone doing with him? Will you pick him regardless of whether he plays round one? I'll have a poll too, see what the general feel is.

I don't think anyone will want to go the whole season without him, so will be interesting if anyone has any particular strategy to get him in.

 

[TheOz]

I hate everything to do with that man right now.

Will probably not pick him even if he is named.

 

[Big Fozza]

If picked rd 1 he will be in my side. Too risky not to have him imo

I hear whispers he's done his shoulder again.

Rumour has been going around since the morning, reckon if there was any truth to it it would have been confirmed by now.

You would have thought so... who knows.

Too much of a risk to have in my initial side. I think there's more than meets the eye in regards to his shoulder injury.

"But for the first time this pre-season, Ablett removed the cap to participate in a full-field match simulation when he rode a number of pushes, bumps and tackles and racked up possessions like he was never injured at all.

He completed the full two-hour session and never favoured his troublesome shoulder during the match simulation or the earlier series of drills that required overhead marking."

Ablett is a little like going to cash convertors and selling something for $35 then finding out it was a silly move and then go back to the store and it's sitting at the window for $85 + GST.

 

[karaoke]

For me, it's as simple as to whether or not he is named & plays in rd1.

This will say more than any news, Twitter or forum thread could say.

 

[manboob]

Anyone got the percentage of teams he is in?

Clearly the HS is wrong..

"So, basically, you jumped the gun and are now blaming Wayne Carey.

That's what happens when you jump on FB and post what someone else says instead of fact finding yourself."

While she's at it she might want to learn what "alluding" ****ing means... idiot.

 

[Watsclarkosmob]

At the moment he's not in...but I am regretting not having Paul Gallen from the start of my NRL Supercoach team...hope I don't make the mistake of not having the best captain option in both my supercoach teams this year.

No idea how anyone could get on there high horse like that, throwing around terms like ill-informed or mislead the football community, when they've done the exact same thing ffs.

 

[Big Fozza]

Just a thought; which premos haven't played NAB in recent years and how have they performed early rounds? I think selwood missed last year and came out firing. I'm on my phone so cant do too much research myself but anyone got any thoughts on this and who else i ciuld lool at to give me an idea?

 

[Deliverance]

Is there any footage of him at training or Is it club PR BS?

 

[felsty]

This is the way I see it. If he plays he is going to play full games. He is fit (recording pbs during the ps) just not match fit and the best way to get him up to speed is to play full games. Even if he plays a little less time than normal he is playing against Melbourne and Saints Round 1 and Round 2 - not hardened bodies, not teams that I imagine would test him out, he will score well against these teams, im thinking at least 120+ if he remains a little proppy maybe 110+. He is still in my team barring him not being named.

So who are the guys in the white hats? Its not for Sun protection as they are wearing them backwards. It's like DeBono is running training at GCS.
