UNLESS- Cleary signing is announced in the next week- probably all that can save him now, and doubtless would force me to leave him at least another week.
The hard thing about rolling with players you really like IRL is that you seem to be softer on them when it comes to making a cut. I cut KBrom after a single game, but I have stuck with ET through 28 points per round valued at 42. I really want ET to stick around in my team, but I have been pretty patient with him so far, I fear he is playing his swansong this arvo.
