Came off with a knee injury after 10 minutes in the reserves. Don't know how serious it is at this stage but as a guy who has had a couple of knee problems it isn't good. Laidler anyone?

[colmullet]

yeah makes me feel more confident bout locking in Laidler in at D7

"Johnson had conventional ACL reco which failed and then LARS hybrid which may have done the same"

Laidlers stocks rise now, but with McDonald at D6, Langford/Georgiou at D7 and Langdon at D8 I don't think I can fit him in. Don't have enough cash to upgrade Langford to Laidler

Hmmmm, I think I will let him pass, but I do think he is now a much better pick, and hopefully I don't regret not picking him

Webster to Laidler????

[HotTiges]

Let's get cheeky Suckers to Laids?

[RaisyDaisy]

Webster to Laidler????

That makes sense to me. Sucker at D5 with just the 3 rookies above means I am probably going to miss him, but if I had Webster I would feel much more comfortable having Laidler and the 80k

[fever]

now the question is turn clurey or georgiou into laidler? obv it's way better if we can have georgiou in, but clurey is named this week. what is his JS like?

OK this getting a bit wild but Webster to Laidler, Wingard to TMitch allows Suckling to Simpson.
Thoughts?

no. why dont you want suckling? the whole point of having him is to either get a really cheap D6 come years end, or at least make a lot of money.

Because he becomes Simpson without using a trade. Simpson more likely to be top 6 def than Suckers.
Rookies will make money.

If anything hes more of a bench option anyway which means Im gonna wait a week to see how he scores and then trade him in next week if langford doesnt get named

Laidler plays today though.

[fever]

perhaps you're right, but i dont think either will be top 6 by years end


e: re simpson v suckling

[Bennny]

I'm putting him as D6, i have a feeling he might get subbed of though.. What do you reckon
