Hore will end up scoring 65 max. Been a spud this quarter

Brayshaw been awful with disposal but will still score 105-110 which you take any day.
He’s running at 78%... that’s not awful. He’s turned it over a couple of times but so does everyone.

Hore has 16 points in that quarter. Hardly a spud for a guy playing his fourth game.

Amazing how every good rookie I bring in scores 20 points less than their recent average. I paid a premium for Hore, so had to field him. Suddenly he can't take a mark to save himself after getting 13 marks last week. This is against richmond, who give up the most marks to defenders.

Bray haha 27 points in that quarter, pure junk. His marking game is saving him this year. I always thought he was a tackling beast though, shame we're not seeing it tonight. I picked him thinking he would be a top 3 mid but it just won't be possible given his TOG. I'm just hoping he improves that and has a big second half of the year

Hes on 57 at 3qtr time that's on track for about 75. If anyone traded him in thinking that he would consistently score higher than that had unrealistic expectations. He was never going to get 90s every week.

Granted people may have thought with Richmond giving up such high mark numbers and scores recently that he may be in on that but thats not the way this game has gone so thats not on hore, its on Melbournes style and Richmond fixing up that deficiency. None of the Dees defenders have high mark numbers, Salem has 0

You’re lucky it’s not super coach...every kick he had basically been 10m grubber that’s a turnover.

Very happy with my decision to bring in Ross. Even if he goes out when Cotch returns (which he would have to have some shot of staying in if he stays like this) he will have 2 good price rises and I would be surprised to not see him again to be able to make more money throughout the season.

Lockhart a mistake at this point and won't score much. At least he was basement so got a good initial cash in, DPP giving trading flexibility and more ability to cary him. Fingers crossed that he can hold his spot and improve on that but I won't hold my breathe.

That Baker goal sums up my season...doesn’t touch the ball in the second half but kicks a junk time goal to end up 90+ when my opponent has him. Just laughable.

Only 80 but still unlucky. I remember people trading in baker in AF just because he was the only fwd rookie available, along with Shai Bolton. They took a massive risk, now he looks like he has better JS than Ross/Stack, is running through the mids and scoring really well.

yep, after paying a premium for Hore (+95k), I don't think I can do that again with Ross. Will put all my chips on Hately or Hayes next week
That’s the right move IMO, if you keep chasing the players 3rd game score you’ll get stuck in a loop. Not only are you paying a premium for Ross, he’s one round closer to Cotchins return too, and his JS becomes that little more shaky.

Both those players were impressive last week, hopefully they deliver again this week. I’m really keen to watch Hately again especially.

Yeah exactly my thoughts. Hately was really good last week so I don't mind missing on Ross. I'm hoping I didn't screw myself with getting Hore, hoping he can make at least another 150-200k to make the Clark trade worthwhile. I need him to be my best cash cow now (apart from walsh and constable), considering I missed Petrucelle, ROB, Miers
