I’d be going with Scotland.

He is a key to Carlton getting close to top 4 this year, and as they are in danger of missing out on this, Ratt’s cannot afford to rest him.

A bad game for Scotland was his 85 last week, and that was in a team where Juddy top scored – don’t see that very often.

Another variable is his court case coming up later in season. Even if found guilty, first offence, model citizen – will get a good behavior bond, and Carlton will not suspend him.

He will grind a 90 plus score in 95% of games this year – pretty solid for a backman.

I’m in the same position; currently don’t have any of the four named gents but plan to pick one up next week. Goddard was always the target particularly when he fell in price, but now a little concerned that he might not bounce his average back up again. Watching a few games, he often looks disinterested or irrational out there; lazy question, does anyone know if he re-signed yet?

Anyway, at this point, I’m leaning heavily towards Suckling.
Which means he’ll probably do an ACL in three weeks’ time, so avoid if possible.

Top scores during the MBR’s will be around the 2000 mark, average scores will be 1700-1800 imo

Nice one, Tee Tee. “Sheeds stirs his line-up like a party mix” – love it.

Sorry to go so off-topic, shagger, but I need help with my upgrade in defence.

Goddard v Scotland (yeah, I have neither!)

The second and third-best averaging backmen. Both are down on their starting price, Goddard significantly so, while Scotland is set to come down more with a BE around 120.

I’m concerned that Goddard hasn’t scored over 90 for a few weeks and that big 140 at the start of the season against GC is inflating his overall average.

My concern with Scotland is not knowing what effect the loss of Murphy will have on his scoring – make him sluttier or more frigid?

The other options (keen on rd13 defenders) are either of Hawks duo Grant Birchall/Matt Suckling, who have a good run home but I think the other two have them covered. Maybe.

Suggestions?

Doesn’t anyone else think Zorko may be a little bit over rated? I mean yeah he’s the best downgrade target atm, but he’s only really played GWS….
