The Power finished fullof run in the last quarter to Cause the biggest upset of the season and end any remote chance the Hawks had of making the top 4. The Hawks led at 18pts at one stage in third term but a strong last quarter by Pearce & Justin Westhoff helped them win this game. The Hawks now face a must Win game against the Swans. Highest disposal getters were K.Cornes with 23, R.Gray 22 & Cassisi with 20. For the Hawks Sewell 23  & Rioli 22. Franklin went missing in the last quarter and Hodge was beaten.

Both Brown and Hall have shown to be pretty clean the last few weeks, and have the potential to get the ton if the rest of their teams help them out! Both have decent runs home I think from memory.

I'm tossing up between ROK and Pods also. At the moment I'm thinkint that Pods is less likely to get a ton that O'Keefe, evidenced by his last game against Brisbane at Skilled Stadium, where I expected him to get a massive 130+, but he disappointed and got 70. So my choice at the moment is Pods.

However, I realise that the Swans' run home is pretty shocking, and he's been very up-down lately.

Another thing to consider in the run-in to finals is whether your opponent has ROK and/or Pods. Do you want to differentiate from them and bring in Roo, or do you want to keep them so they cancel out to a draw?

But personally I've seen enough from Roo to justify me bringing him in. Even if he only gets 100, it's better than what I'm getting at the moment, and I reckon with more games he'll get better, and St Kilda need to flick the 'on' switch NOW if they're any chance for finals.

yep i have the same 4 up forward too.  who to trade....??

Roooo is back in touch.
Held off bringing him in this week but with a second solid score in as many weeks, he is in next week for sure.
But now the descision for who?
Jpod, ROK, Brown, Hall.

Trade jPod? Who hurt you to make you so cold and dead inside? 

Seriously, I'd probably do the Didak trade. Money shouldn't be much of an issue at this stage, Collingwood are the most in-form team at the moment and Didak is a star. I think he has better consistency than Franklin and his ceiling is only slightly lower if not just as high. Freo's run is slightly easier, but I expect Didak to outscore the Pav in the next five rounds.

presti out for nathan brown, not that that affects super coach i wouldnt have thought

I think you should probably stock with Kennelly. Before last week he was in pretty good form and Sydney are most likely going to get pumped which should mean the ball is in the cats 50 most of the game which should be good for Kennelly's stats. Webberley and Strijk are both unproven and are likey to only get you 50-70, where was Kennelly should get you 70+

and goodwin and shaw aren't back yet.
