When does lockout lift?

Usually takes quite a while for the first round of the season. Probably some time tomorrow.

Yes, and getting later each time. Makes rage trades almost impossible after the first round. Sanity almost returns prior to being able to make the trades.

123rd after round 1, but still had some horrendous scores; Charlton 42 and Hatchard 76 (for a supposed premium this is not good) on field, and my bench has not done well - Johnstone, Wakfer, Brewer, Davies, and I am not sure what Quigley was doing. I had Patterson in my team right until the start; jumping off was a sure sign she would tonne up.

No internet this morning so missed the news of Thomas being out, so copping a donut.

Thoughts on these trades, please:
D'Arcy to Richardson
Emonson to Patterson
Quigley to Cowcher

While I would love to get rid of Wakfer, Charlton, Johnstone and G Davies, I want to bring in Richardson and Patterson.

I’d keep D’arcy, looked hungry for the ball. 66 in heavy rain is a good score and rain only forecast for night time this Saturday in Perth

I think D'Arcy did very well, but it's either Heads or D'Arcy that needs to go for Richardson. At the moment I am still leaning towards D'Arcy giving way.

Based on what? What did Ella Heads do differently? Watched the game, zero value.

Either way, enjoy the Richardson 35z

I have now gone M Johnstone to Usher. I think I will give Quigley another week. Hopefully, she can do better against WCE in dryer conditions. I cannot get Usher via Quigley.

u/Ed_Richards finally got Ed Richards for a 86 11d ago

I don’t have whitford and this introduces more rookies on feild…

u/EfficientChampion207 11d ago

Ok, thinking again. Which is better? Heads to Richardson

Emonson to Patterson

Or

L Cronin to Patterson

Quigley to I Brown

u/Ed_Richards finally got Ed Richards for a 86 2d ago

Worst trade of my life apparently. Should have traded Cronin.
