Haha he’s gone burgers next week anyway, actually might do some math on Moses/Cleary/DCE and see what I can do.

How did Clark go by the way?

he was solid, played well. had a nice try assist. 50 minutes though if he doesn't pick up the TA/TBA he has a high 20s score.

On sweep plays going to the winger, sure Turbo gets them. When Joel Thompson or Curtis Sironen crashes over off a short ball that's DCE. Averaging 0.9 a game last year and has a career average of 0.7 per game over 6 years

NO mate Turbo gets all the assists.

That inspired me to have a look

Last year DCE averaged 56 in games where he and Trbo both played uninjured (10 games)
Averaged 63 in games Trbo didn't play or got injured (9 games)

That's a big difference
But back in 2018 there was only 2 games DCE played in without Trbo and he scored 91 and 57

Neither of them have job security so if don't have them already probably best to avoid

So keeping Drink, Croft, Isaako then and only need to trade Mann and Luai

Is Mann injury confirmed?

No word on how severe it is yet

Not officially but G2 ATFL (lateral ankle sprain) expected. Should know by this arvo. Likely 2 weeks or so unless bosso was wrong but you can basically always tell a grade 3 which is a full rupture that would extend the time frame to 4-6

2 weeks is a tough hold. Will have a low breakeven but Tex may do enough to keep the job full time. Holding Mann for 2 weeks only for him to come back on the bench would sting

The toughest part would be if Hoy/Crossland perform whilst Mann is out, they might even keep the spot

Actually, if you assume Mann's long term average will be about 40 he is close enough to maxxed out that its probably fine to trade him next week.

Definitely. Pearce gave Mann a big wrap post game and everyone at the club is happy with him but you’re right no guarantees. Missing 2 games is very touch and go. I’ll keep an eye on the group chat for injury news but as always I don’t ever see any selection stuff so no help there on Tex vs Mann.

Probably depends what happens with Luai for me

Getting rid of Mann will be rough especially when he only needed a few weeks of 40s (including this one) to make another 100k

Wish I had followed my gut and got Burton in round 3, (and again in round 4), would have been a great buy.

Would have been nice to milk that last 50k or so out of his 70 point performance but not the end of the world

Well it is when your terribly low on cashies haha. Hopefully someone pops up

That timeframe for Mann also means his replacement is probably a no go as well.

Looks like both Mann & Luai can come back and they still have cash to be squeezed. Difficult decision to make.
