Good work Davo, I will make sure i have a reasonable emergency in the forwards even if no more info during the week.
I would imagine the thumbs downs are dissapointment that he is out rather than people having a pop at you.

Love to see what sort of damage the Dons could do to a team with a full healthy list to choose from. Nearly there. Lots of tests to be done though and most of them will still be a week away except for Gumby. He should be listed as terminally rooted.

Surely Hirdy will put Gumby in for a go if he goes alright in the seconds..If he can actually do something, our forward line will be looking good with him, Hurley and Stewwy Crameri!
My expectation and hopes for this week is to not get dominated, show a bit of heart, and get no more injuries!
CARN the dons!

Hot debate. What do you think?

Love that last sentence Matteo!, Heading down to the game this week and can’t wait.
A little off topic but word of B.Moloney leaving Melbourne, wouldn’t he add some spark to our midfield, I know we weren’t far away from grabbing him last year. FIngers crossed..
GO DONS!

Hille and ? -> Melbourne
Moloney -> Essendon

I like it Ollie, no problems with the HIlle trade as I have been impressed with Bellchambers and think it is his time to take over as the number one ruckmen. Maybe chuck Reimers into that trade as well? I just don’t think he has a place in our team anymore.
Anyway, I love where the bombers are going and can’t wait to see how far we go this year!

I’ve got the Goodes injury dilemma so wondering what other people are doing.
Anyone thinking of holding him seeing he’s almost a must for any finals team? And if trading, to another Premium or down to a rookie for cash?
Horsely and Adams are the obvious rookies but what’s peoples thoughts on a straight swap for S Selwood?

Was considering keeping him, but can’t bring myself to holding up that much cash for 6weeks, swapping him for Adams leaves me with 1.8 mil in the bank, 17 trades, and ready to do some major upgrades

Wow. You certainly would be in a good position for some major upgrades.
Yeah, looks like I’ll downgrade to Adams and pocket the cash. Horsely considered but keen to keep DPP as its been a godsend in avoiding donuts so far.
Leaves me with $500,000 in bank so could do two upgrades next week with that. Especially as there’s some value in the some of the lower end Premium DEFs.

Early on thought Mumford and Natinui was a great ruck combo.
But after a donut last week after Natinui’s late withdrawal, and staring one down again this week. Do i use a trade… think I’ll save it and just bring in Horsley.
Given up on overall honours.

I’m not unhappy about that from a SC perspective and a rabid Essendon supporter perspective. (Is this my tell showing PA?) Essendon isn’t quite ready to beat a full strength WC side but with the current injuries and now with their ruck/forward set up compromised and No 1 tagger in A.Selwood out it is looking a lot better.
Now all we need is Hurley and Crammers to get up and we are good to go 6-1.
GO DONS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
