Hey there guys.
Who would you consider to be the best R2 option to partner Cox in Round 23? The first five would be the best options, but Zac Clarke could be a sneaky POD given his recent form.
I've got Roughie, but I'm considering upgrading him.
Lobbe has gone 130+ three times in the last six weeks. Strangely he hasn't been that great at AAMI. But still...
Minson will be the most reliable scorer and an easy 100, but if you are chasing a big score and POD then Lobbe would be the way to go.
It may be because he's in my team but I like the look of Goldy vs Collingwood. As good as Grundy has been, Collingwood leak points to opposition rucks

This is true.
Grundy's opponents:
ROUND 22 - Cox (100)
ROUND 21 - Hale (92)
ROUND 20 - Mumford (95)
ROUND 19 - Ryder (91)
ROUND 18 - Brogan (57)
But then you looks at what Melbourne conceeds to opposition rucks:
ROUND 22 - Jacobs (104)
ROUND 21 - Clarke (116)
ROUND 20 - Gorringe (76)
ROUND 19 - Brogan (76)
ROUND 18 - Goldstein (137)
ROUND 17 - Leuenberger (117)
ROUND 16 - Simpson (109)
ROUND 15 - Mumford (80)
ROUND 14 - Minson (110)

Nice bit of research. Going by this Minson probably is the better option.
After seeing what Minson did in the second half against Brissie, he will destroy Melbourne

touch wood! i hope so!
Yeah have had minson since kruze went down and he's been great. Should score well against the dees and is ultra consistent.
Go Minson. Most consistent and will dominate against the Dees.
