Lipinski posted 83 against Geelong in a 54-point flogging — solid individual effort in a horror team day — but he was concussed in that game and won't be on the field against Sydney. The R9 score clears his 54 BE and his average of 68.7 remains serviceable, but you cannot hold a concussed mid through a forced R10 absence when the cash gen is already flat at -$1,354/round. Trade him this week.

Community Intel· T3

Dedicated community post asking "where do we stand with Lipinski?" — noting he has been really poor in recent weeks and made some errors in R6 but had 2 good defensive acts in Q4. Consensus leans toward VFL time, but some hold out hope.

Vest Risk· T3

Multiple match thread comments called for Lipinski to be dropped after poor R6 performance. His key weapon — i50 kicking — is no longer working, and commenters note he has not been a positive all year. "No idea how lipinski is still in the team."
