Should I trade Shaun Mannagh?
Form, breakeven, and a comparable replacement weighed up.
Shaun Mannagh ranked as one of Geelong's most trusted infield kickers. Community ranks him among the top options by foot in the team, with his kick efficiency and decision-making highlighted.
Mannagh had a career-best performance vs Brisbane Lions (R10), kicking 5 goals with 30 touches and 14 score involvements. Multiple commenters described it as an "all-time game" and noted his second half was rated second highest by a Cats player since stats recording began.
Shaun Mannagh returned to good form in R8 after a few quiet weeks, getting a confidence boost. Fans pleased with his impact after prior disappointing games.
Shaun Mannagh has been in a significant form slump since the Hawthorn game, repeatedly scoring in the 20s and 30s in SuperCoach. Community consensus is he is attracting premium opposition attention due to Stengle and Miers absences, leaving him the clear #1 small forward target.
At least one commenter raises a niggly injury as a plausible explanation for Mannagh speed/effectiveness decline, as his pace is a core part of his game. Not confirmed but worth monitoring.
Shaun Mannagh described as invisible for two consecutive games including R5 vs West Coast. Multiple comments noted poor form and discussed whether he should be dropped when Stengle returns or Dangerfield comes back. Post-match comments had high engagement on this topic.
