Running out of patience with Callinan, is he nursing an injury? Doesn't seem to be reaching the heights of last season when he does get on the park.

Getting sick of Kreuzer's mediocrity aswell, he had an excellent pre-season by all reports and started off well.

Kruezer is being played too much as a forward to be able to capitalise on ruck scoring benefits.

Sideways into HMac if you feel the need to dump Cox/Kruezer.

Not a bad call, hadn't thought of that option. Was considering downgrade with Giles currently tonning it up regularly on my bench.

My problem is what to do with Geary and Porplyzia
Geary was averaging between 90-100 before last weeks effort but is now facing a BE of 75 this week.
I am wondering with Gram being back whether that has affected his role as he was played as tagger on Davey on the weekend, facing Hawthorn this week, will he be given the job on Cyril and suffer a price drop??
And Porplyzia - WTF is wrong with him - Where has he gone??

Got HMac in for Leuenberger and was happy with the outcome. I'm going to try to preserve my trades now as I have too many GWS still.

I got Geary in last week for Dempsey, they almost scored the same, very disappointed, should've gone Dumpster instead despite him killing me in the past, then again, I would've only ruined his season instead.

When you think they wont make you any more cash or when you see a newbie who's at a baseline price and about to go boom.

Ideally you want to make about $200K from a cash cow, although, depending on timing, you might have to settle on around $150K.

I almost traded out Coniglio for Treloar, but would have only banked $100K, which just wasn't anywhere near enough considering Coniglio's starting price.

Porpylizia looking better
Porplyzia's workout on Max Basheer Reserve yesterday was more than encouraging


But i'm not expecting Sandilands to play Gold Coast
But Lyon admitted he considered Sandilands to be only a 50-50 proposition.

This is working well I just have to think of getting a player and they go out, at least this is better than after the trade. Now who else can I curse I need a backman to replace Carrazzo mmmmmmmm Scotland, Goddard, Suckling, Drummond……


The curse continues I managed 2 out of 3. :(
I picked Drummond for DT and Goddard for Virtual only Scotland in SC survived. But the backline is still sick Lids (knee), Birchel (knee) Smeddts (sub) and Hargrave WTF did he go walkabout? :roll:

Would think they'll rest him against Freo, spare him from the Crowley tag and make sure he is cherry ripe to get get them over the line against GWS.

I did it with Kennedy in one and Fritz in another. Probably cut myself short a bit but I have a shitload of coin at my disposal for any upgrades that I feel I may need and I still have a fair few cashies banking it up.

Hargrave not even listed in injuries list, dare say he copped General Weakness Soreness which will apply to many GWS opponents as the season goes on.
