Round 3 Discussion

[enobrien]

Hoepfully Robbie grey gets stuck forward with Sam grey racking them up midfield. How the hell is Robbie Gray not a mid/fwd? he spend more time up there than nearly any mid.

Was last year. Beyond me why they changed it.

Petracca played his first game & Trengove in the VFL last week.
Both probably need a few more weeks though.

I reckon Oliver holds his spot ahead of M.Jones & Harmes, surely they pump games into him and his fitness continues to improve.
Everything he does is class still, but has a lot of room for improvement fitness wise.

Brayshaw also looked really underdone, but they will probably keep playing him based on talent alone.

Dean Kent as well.

 

[Spacedog]

Menadue will definitely play

 

[rocker_oz33]

last week I had 29 little green dots
this week I'll be lucky to get 25...

Best to see a doctor might be some kind of measles.

Thanks Dimma.

 

[Here2tellyouwhy]

Thanks Dimma.

Someone hete said Wingard was definitely playing but alas.

They should change it mid season like AFL Fantasy, add DPP to blokes who clearly deserve it.

he played predominately midfield last year. there is your answer

 

[markm106]

Agree. Has been pretty reasonable and should only get better.

Still hit the scoreboard though. Gray 25 goals, Dusty 24. Dusty's still DPP. To me Robbie is definitely a forward as well. But oh well.

Is this Choko or Brendo Lade?

i think they base it off how long they spend in each position - i think it is some like 30 or 40%. Even though Gray kicked more goals than Dusty, Dusty may have spent more time in the fwd 50. It doesnt matter how many goals they kicked. You could argue that when Swan kicked 32 goals in 2011, but wasnt DPP in 2012, he should have been, but it was because he didnt spend enough time forward to constitute the DPP status

Yeah i see what you mean. But shit, if he's still able to kick more goals than Dusty without being down there as much, he's still a pretty good bloody forward.

 

[Flandersss]

Wonder when Grimspud will get a game?

Few bombers posters have him coming in this week against port..

My current R3 lol

 

[FAILTOSUCCEED]

Dean Kent as well.

Correct!!

He has to be a chance. Kicked 4, McKernan kicked 6 though...

 

[Tazzaye]

Didnt the other day someone said Chad was guaranteed to play aye not looking likely now...

 

[Deliverance]

The Hoff to kick ten as my VC please SC gods. I offer you this pixelated football as sacrifice

 

[stevebbb]

Yeah he did, a Port supporter, but you can't blame him because the club took Chad off the injury list and said he'll train on Wednesday and he'll play..
Wednesday came and they said he'll be out, so he was obviously sore and didn't train.

That was me. A mate of my mine at the club said he was fine but the next day they sent Wingard in for scans just to be sure and found minor tissue damage in his hammy.

 

[toxic]

30 minutes

 

[nameless]

Ruggles confirmed in right?
Will keep an eye on he and Hartley

Could be tough choices made if they both go well...
