Dale looks the best option, will avoid starting with the vest this week too (possibly be subbed off), not sure about his scoring output, rookie choices are scarce.

Ben · 28/05/2015 at 21:52
No forward rookies to bring in. Dale if desperate but questionable JS and high sub chance.

Jackybluch · 28/05/2015 at 22:49
should i start hamling or mckenzie?

Ben · 28/05/2015 at 22:51
Mckenzie has a good chance of not playing. Wait until finalised teams tomorrow arvo.

@wheels_1987 · 29/05/2015 at 11:15
hold Lonie until the Bye
no good downgrade option

Chicko · 28/05/2015 at 21:52
Mate he'll be fine don't sweat it. A true supercoacher would never doubt a superstar like Birch.

Mac · 28/05/2015 at 22:06
Just wanting to know a time frame on his injury..

T-mitch · 29/05/2015 at 01:53
Oh yeah, how many games he missed this year?

Ben · 28/05/2015 at 21:53
Should be back next week. No need to risk him against Gold Coast.

r2d2 · 28/05/2015 at 23:06
Out this week isn’t he ?

Ben · 28/05/2015 at 21:54
Dale, but both aren't good options.

OldOcker · 29/05/2015 at 03:13
I do not like either option. I am going Karl Amon, Has played 2 sub affected games but is named on ground this week.
Hopefully he will play through the byes at least. Kane Cornes retiring and injuries could see him play 5 or 6 games.
I will change my mind if he is made sub before I do my planned trade.

Jdogg · 29/05/2015 at 06:56
I have downgraded to Lambert. Might be a few weeks away but he should walk straight in.

Danners16 · 29/05/2015 at 10:15
Tarrant-Menadue, heard rumors that Hardwick wants to run his young boys around a bit more

@wheels_1987 · 29/05/2015 at 11:16
hold
dont get sucked into these trades this week

Scotty · 28/05/2015 at 21:55
I don't think Deledio is a great option due to the chance he'll get injured/rested.
I also think Dahlhaus will have more consistent scoring.
But when Deledio goes big, he goes BIG

Ben · 28/05/2015 at 21:55
Dahlhaus: Safer pick, less upside,
Deledio: Much better player, injury risk / could be managed.

Danners16 · 29/05/2015 at 10:14
Dahlhaus, cheaper and is one of the highest averaging forwards I believe

@wheels_1987 · 29/05/2015 at 11:16
take a punt on lids injury woes being behind him, or wait until after his bye

@wheels_1987 · 29/05/2015 at 11:17
no crass in the song please
keep it clean for all the Mothers

Alex · 28/05/2015 at 21:54
Top 6 top 8

derek · 29/05/2015 at 09:40
I think both are just outside the top 6/8. But their price reflects that.

@wheels_1987 · 29/05/2015 at 11:17
Like

Dean · 28/05/2015 at 23:02
Lonie without a doubt mate, he has a break even of 100 compared to McIntosh's break even which is 43. Lonie will drop at least $20k you would think. McIntosh should still make you money.
Hope this helps…

Luke · 29/05/2015 at 08:47
cheers heaps dean

Danners16 · 29/05/2015 at 10:14
Lonie, higher breakeven

@wheels_1987 · 29/05/2015 at 11:17
Lonie over Kmac
however no good downgrade options

Ben · 28/05/2015 at 22:03
Neither a guaranteed games any time soon! Steele would be playing for almost any other team but with GWS's midfield, there's no room for him and if he plays, lock him in for the sub. Theres a few players above Goddard and will take a lot of injuries for him to get a game.

Derek · 28/05/2015 at 22:16
I wouldnt bring either in until named.

SCaddict · 28/05/2015 at 23:33
I wouldn't be in a hurry to move Lonie on. Yes he has a sizable BE this week and next but that is artificially elevated due to being KO'd in the first minutes of his last game. Once that 3 has cycled through his pricing he'll be back to making you cash again.
He is also a live body with excellent JS and decent scoring potential which is especially crucial during the bye period. So I wouldn't be trading him out for someone with flaky or non existent JS and/or limited scoring ability.

OldOcker · 29/05/2015 at 03:17
Totally agree Addict. I am still holding him at this stage.

Dan · 29/05/2015 at 03:31
Agreed!

@wheels_1987 · 29/05/2015 at 11:18
Agreed
well written piece of literature

Phil · 28/05/2015 at 23:11
I like it. One thing I've noticed about Carlton (ever since Round 1 when Dusty, Lids, Cotchin struggled while Hunt, McIntosh smashed it) they're a obviously a bad team but they do have good taggers. So it seems the oppositions first string midfielders don't usually smash it, but the second string (which is what I'd class Titch as in this strong midfield) midfielders do.

@wheels_1987 · 29/05/2015 at 11:18
shhhhh
dont spoil it mate!!!!

Ben · 28/05/2015 at 22:23
Trade to avoid a donut. Cant really split Martin, Blicavs, Mumford, Jacobs. Don't trade Goldstein in with a b/e around 170

Phil · 28/05/2015 at 23:15
If it's to save a donut I wouldn't care to much about break evens, you need the guy now. So to me Goldstein, followed by Blicavs would be the best value for money. I wouldn't pick Mumford unless if you have backup.

SCaddict · 28/05/2015 at 23:42
Yeah ship him off immediately as that achilles could linger even when he comes back and curtail his scoring ceiling throughout the season.
Plus not sure he'll be a consistent premium point scorer even if fully fit, playing primarily up forward with Lobbe getting the bulk of the ruck minutes.
So an easy trade for mine especially if you already have the cash to go straight to one of the premier rucks.

@wheels_1987 · 29/05/2015 at 11:19
i brought in him a coulpe of week ago into FWD for RUC cover
need to hold i think
structure wise he is vital

SideBySidebottom · 28/05/2015 at 22:47
Solid trade. Never consider Lumumba ever again.

hedski · 28/05/2015 at 23:32
Ever

Jdogg · 29/05/2015 at 08:26
EVER

derek · 29/05/2015 at 09:39
you must feel very clean now, having got rid of him from your team.

Deadly · 29/05/2015 at 09:41
I've still got the dirty blighter and will hang on for round 12, but after then let the cleansing begin

@wheels_1987 · 29/05/2015 at 11:20
I have the Prince
He is killing my team
but he has put a spell on me
i cant trade him out

Derek · 28/05/2015 at 22:20
Simpson much better option than TMac. Keep ibbotson, he’s doing ok

Nicholas · 28/05/2015 at 23:24
what about just cripps to parker?

Luke · 28/05/2015 at 22:28
tmac has proven he is one of the best defence supercoach options, and you have quite a few cash cows with the round 13 bye which im sure youd be looking to cull before rd13, so he could potentially fit your bye structure
cripps on the other hand, id be looking to hold onto, the reward should heavily out weigh the risk this round, as a hugely undermanned carlton midfield will result in a big game on the youngster, with a bit more cash to make before the byes as well,

Danners16 · 29/05/2015 at 10:13
Those trades sound good, could get a couple more round 12 bye mids if you wanted to

@wheels_1987 · 29/05/2015 at 11:21
wait for Tmac post bye
u MUST get your MID FWD and RUC full premo and leave DEF to last

Ben · 28/05/2015 at 22:23
Clarke.

The Bont · 28/05/2015 at 22:54
I'd go Tarrant as the safer pick.
Ignoring last week where Freo destroyed North (players like Goldstein even scored 44) he's scored 78 three weeks in a row, so you can confidently expect a score around there. Clark on the other hand could give you a 90 or a 40.

derek · 29/05/2015 at 09:37
Clark doesn't seem to get much of the pill, but seems to get an ok SC score every week. I don't think clark has actually had a good game this year, so when he does I can see him going 95+. WCE are lacking some height in defence, so it might be this week.

Phil · 28/05/2015 at 23:19
A guy with a ceiling of 150, as proven last week, is a must have in our defence imo. His durability makes him moreso.

Donavan · 28/05/2015 at 23:28
Agree, but durability – he was out the previous week injured.

Girdle · 29/05/2015 at 05:41
Two weeks!

derek · 29/05/2015 at 09:34
he had hardly missed a game for the last 3 years before he missed those two week.
I have him since round 1 and always though him as a year long keeper. now he is cheaper.

@wheels_1987 · 29/05/2015 at 11:22
Upgrade your FWD MID and RUC lines first

Ben · 28/05/2015 at 22:26
I'm bringing Rockliff in the week and then one of Lewis or Beams after the bye. If i could, i'd love to get Sidebottom, no one has him and every chance to be a top 8 mid, just costs a lot more than the others.

@wheels_1987 · 29/05/2015 at 11:30
watch sidebum to his bye
post bye could be POD of the year

The Bont · 28/05/2015 at 22:54
neither but if you must I'd go Tarrant

@wheels_1987 · 29/05/2015 at 11:30
hold both this week
unless u need rocky then trade cripp for rocky, otherwise HOLD

Crouching Elephant · 28/05/2015 at 22:32
Saad

Hazey · 29/05/2015 at 08:57
Isn’t CEY suspended or did I imagine I heard Jock say it?

Hazey · 29/05/2015 at 09:11
Seems I imagined it! :-/

derek · 29/05/2015 at 09:32
I would normally say Saad, but they are up against a pretty good team this week. Crows have freo, so by elimination I would go with krak who are playing Melbourne.

@wheels_1987 · 29/05/2015 at 11:32
Cannot see why u wouldnt have Saad in your DEF line and have Krak in your FWD line
Krak has melb this week and coming of a stinker against the tigers needs to lift or face the chopping block

Gryffindor · 29/05/2015 at 00:14
Hold till after rd 12, i completely agree with him potentially improving form with rocky back and brisbane player better

@wheels_1987 · 29/05/2015 at 11:32
i stopped reading after the first sentence
HOLD Zorko the Magnificent

Chung · 28/05/2015 at 22:52
Too expensive

Gryffindor · 29/05/2015 at 00:13
Missed the boat on Lever, he'll have to play on a good freo forward this week and won't score much

Timmy · 29/05/2015 at 09:24
If you bring him now in you'll probably need to ride him through to the end of the year as bench cover. Otherwise it will cost you a second trade to offload him

derek · 29/05/2015 at 09:29
nope

Danners16 · 29/05/2015 at 10:12
Hamling is a good option, he should your plans. Round 11 bye, should have similar job security to Lever

beezneez · 29/05/2015 at 11:10
+1

@wheels_1987 · 29/05/2015 at 11:33
you have missed him in my opinion
do not get him now

@GOODO71 · 28/05/2015 at 23:15
Would steer clear of bringing in Brooksby without having played a game. Yes, he might outscore TBC, but in terms of making you any money, why not wait the 2 games and get a look at the guy before making the call. If Bellchambers scores his average over the next 2 games, he's only gonna drop around $7k – $8k. Seems a fair price to pay for 2 games worth of information on Brooksby.

Danners16 · 29/05/2015 at 10:11
Agree with @GOODO71, if Brooksby can hold his spot in the next few weeks, it probably would be worth trading TBC down to him

derek · 29/05/2015 at 09:28
I would nominate that as the boldest Shark move of the year.

@wheels_1987 · 29/05/2015 at 11:34
Give Amon another week
wont go up in value too much this week
Brooksby is not a good option at this stage. They have SMITH and Nicholls
you will find Brooksby is getting a game as a reward for good reserves form. dont expect him to keep his spot

Lukas · 29/05/2015 at 13:56
Smith doesn't look like getting a game any time soon. Nicholls no 1 ruck and even Brooksby getting a game over him.

Donavan · 28/05/2015 at 22:53
I would move Miller before Cripps to get Rocky.

Deadly · 29/05/2015 at 09:45
Do it

@wheels_1987 · 29/05/2015 at 11:51
you have a good plan
i like it

Westy · 29/05/2015 at 16:48
I did this.

Mark · 28/05/2015 at 23:57
There locked out at the start mate.

CashCows · 29/05/2015 at 01:17
Dont need to loophole. Top 18 scoring.

Rolling The Dice · 29/05/2015 at 15:56
Looks like I'll have a loophole option round 13 in the mid. Only getting donuts from Goldy and Nic Nat.

Gryffindor · 29/05/2015 at 00:11
Has been too inconsistent in seasons past and i don't think he'll score well when he has to play on good key forwards
Wait for half back flankers and def/mid players to hit form

OldOcker · 29/05/2015 at 03:30
Hurley was switched to defence late last year and averaged over 100 playing there.
He is playing solely in defence this year and has done very well now that he has more experience playing there.
Yes I do have him in my team as one of my POD defenders for the year and I am happy with his consistency.
4 games over 100 with a 96.8 average is pretty good for a defender.

Girdle · 29/05/2015 at 05:44
If Rocky wasn't so cheap this week and Selwood next week, then I'd look to get him in. But midfield premos have priority right now

@wheels_1987 · 29/05/2015 at 12:05
good option but i strictly follow the rule that you need to get your FWD RUC MID lines first

demon · 29/05/2015 at 12:47
brought him in for the prince a while back and couldn't be happier, he's playing some real good footy

Gryffindor · 29/05/2015 at 00:10
Mckenzie has Brisbane so should score 60+
Hamling is 194cm tall so won't gather much pill and most likely play a key defensive roll and not score much

Dean · 28/05/2015 at 23:59
Is this a serious question? If so then you MUST hold Goldy he will be in the top 5

Gryffindor · 29/05/2015 at 00:09
Hold, he had one bad week and if you take that out he's been the best scoring ruck for the year

Deadly · 29/05/2015 at 09:46
I'm getting him in next week, so I'll take him off your hands.

@wheels_1987 · 29/05/2015 at 12:09
every player has a bad week
hold

Donavan · 28/05/2015 at 23:31
Oxley & Saad both have some cash to make, if you can trade someone else either Hibberd or Simpson are good options.
I gather you have already got Rocky, if not his a priority. I like Lewis the best of the 3 you name.

Gryffindor · 29/05/2015 at 00:08
I wouldn't trade oxley or saad because they're both in good form and have money to make, wait till their byes to trade to a premo
If you are definitely going to Simpson will score more than Hibberd
If you don't think Cripps will do well against Sydney with no murphy, judd, gibbs then Lewis would be best out of those 3, will destroy Gold Cost

derek · 29/05/2015 at 09:10
Oxley to Simpson
Cripps to Selwood

Danners16 · 29/05/2015 at 10:09
Oxley-Simpson, Cripps-Selwood are good trades

@wheels_1987 · 29/05/2015 at 12:10
hold ox and saad

Rolling The Dice · 29/05/2015 at 16:09
I would hold off trading Cripps. Carrazzo is a possible out and I reckon Cripps will ton up.
I wouldn't trade Saad or Oxley either. Wait till their byes

Rolling The Dice · 29/05/2015 at 16:12
Miller/Tarrant<Cripps

@GOODO71 · 28/05/2015 at 23:28
Personally, I'm going Salem to Rocky (via Grey to FWD) this week, but I do also have Cripps and Tarrant in my team.
I think Cripps has more scoring upside than Tarrant. Cripps has a breakeven of 86, which he has reached in 4 of his 6 games this year, and the 2 times he's missed were in his rd 1 debut and last week's massacre vs Geelong. I know Carlton are gonna get beaten up again tomorrow night, but no Judd, Murphy or Gibbs means somebody from Carlton has to score some points.
So if you've gotta move one of these guys for Rocky, I vote Tarrant.

Donavan · 28/05/2015 at 23:32
Tarrant to Rocky. Cripps will score better than Tarrant, and this game is about points foremost.

@wheels_1987 · 29/05/2015 at 12:11
Tarrant

Gryffindor · 29/05/2015 at 00:17
i can't see amon scoing much even with a full game and will be a subbed off risk and future starting sub risk.
I'd hold and wait for Glenn to return from injury who looks like he can gather some pill

OldOcker · 29/05/2015 at 03:45
I am looking to bring Amon in this week as I am painting the fence and don't like other options.
He may be vested off but he is currently on ground and with Polec injured for a few more weeks and Kane retiring I think he will be given games for enough weeks to make some cash and play through the byes.
I will change my mind if he is vested before I trade.

@wheels_1987 · 29/05/2015 at 12:11
If you havent gotten rid of Heeney by now then hold.
Amon is not the best option.
Consider a high risk move like Heeney to Steele
i have 20 trades left and i am holding hopefully to r11

Gryffindor · 29/05/2015 at 00:19
Don't trade the bont or cripps, i think both will score well this week
Tarrant i can see starting to score 50-60 and his start of the season was a fluke so i'd go option 2 but not sure about brooksby if he'll stay in the team

derek · 29/05/2015 at 09:08
wait a few more weeks for Buddy. He is playing injured, after the bye he should be better and look out for the big Buffalo Bounce.
If you wait will get him cheaper.

murray · 29/05/2015 at 09:13
thanks Derek
i think your right

@wheels_1987 · 29/05/2015 at 12:12
Why would you get rid of the Bont?
im assuming you brought him into your team with a trade..
then your going to trade him out
then most likely trade him back in when he bottoms out in price post bye
justy hold him mate

Gryffindor · 29/05/2015 at 00:20
If you have to trade i'd almost lean towards Ellis Yolmen
He has Fremantle so won't score big whereas Cripps is carltons best mid this week and Krakour had one bad week and still has tonnes of cash to make

@wheels_1987 · 29/05/2015 at 12:16
agreed

Jambo · 29/05/2015 at 09:48
I'd hold Cripps as I think he has a little more to offer. You've done very well to being 5-7 players until full premium. I'm 4 off going full premium.

ThatDamnRascal · 29/05/2015 at 15:39
He's the only rookie that will allow me to get both trades done plus has a pretty high BE and is playing Sydney not St Kilda so can't see him hitting that 172. Only two that need to prove their worth are Pittard and Griffin

@wheels_1987 · 29/05/2015 at 12:17
get rocky
avoid Blicavs
save your trades for bye rounds

ThatDamnRascal · 29/05/2015 at 15:40
Don't plan on trading rd11 so trades are pretty safe. In two minds about Blicavs now lol

@wheels_1987 · 29/05/2015 at 15:42
i would avoid Blicavs
you dont want to chase points. i really think you should watch him until after his bye. he wont go up in price too much and you will have more data on him.

@wheels_1987 · 29/05/2015 at 12:18
haha

@wheels_1987 · 29/05/2015 at 12:18
or get Higgo to take community night podcast on his own so there is no CRASS behaviour.. keep Mother Higginbotham happy

Gryffindor · 29/05/2015 at 04:27
i can see him making 200k so good move in my books

Girdle · 29/05/2015 at 06:01
When you move Miller on, it should only be for a top 10 midfielder. And Wallis is not in top 10.

derek · 29/05/2015 at 09:03
I would say that is almost sideways trade, Miller can produce near 90SC output as well.

@wheels_1987 · 29/05/2015 at 12:20
dislike
sideways trade
wait post bye and see how wallis goes

derek · 29/05/2015 at 09:02
TBC has to go, he is costing you points, plus the guys you will replace him with are increasing in price (except Goldy). If you are going for rank you need to find a way to get him out this week. if you are going for league wins, you can wait a bit.

Evan · 29/05/2015 at 09:37
Yep, agree I need to get TBC out….just can't come decide how to generate the cash required to upgrade…any thoughts?? team below..
D – Shaw, Mcdonald, Newnes, Saad, Oxley, Lumumba (lever, mcintosh)
M – Fyfe, Pendles, Neale, JPK, Griff, Cripps, CEY, Rocky (krakour, mckenzie, anderson)
R – Goldy, TBC (read)
F – Gray, Martin, Swan, Higgins, Mitchel, Bont (tarrant, clarke)

@wheels_1987 · 29/05/2015 at 12:20
hold
hold and hold
do not trade out
wait for their byes

Jambo · 29/05/2015 at 09:50
I reckon wait one or two weeks and maybe pick up Keegan Brooksby cheap.

Danners16 · 29/05/2015 at 10:08
Building a warchest is a good idea

@wheels_1987 · 29/05/2015 at 12:21
just hold this week mate see what the SC landscape digs up

derek · 29/05/2015 at 08:56
who are you going to get as your last midfield spot? Gaz, pendlebury.

Jackie · 29/05/2015 at 15:33
Yeah pendles mate

@wheels_1987 · 29/05/2015 at 12:22
hold this week mate and go gang busters through the bye rounds
you will be looking to get Pendles after his bye then your team is set up
Hold for Ryders price to bottom out and go TBC to ryder post bye

Tofor · 29/05/2015 at 12:04
I've got Parker, Kennedy and Mitchell. Tough choice on the VC!

@wheels_1987 · 29/05/2015 at 12:23
you need to SHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
lets keep this on the D/L please

Danners16 · 29/05/2015 at 10:04
Menadue, Dumont, Dawson, Amon are all good options

jack · 29/05/2015 at 11:26
Thanks mate even though your a c#unt

jack · 29/05/2015 at 11:31
sorry that was my school mate

@wheels_1987 · 29/05/2015 at 12:23
Dude…. not cool

Glorin · 29/05/2015 at 09:25
Is goldy your r1? If not wait for him to drop.

murray · 29/05/2015 at 09:45
goldy is R1

Deadly · 29/05/2015 at 09:52
Spencer was rucking against Ayce Cordy, it won't be that easy again. Don't see much upside over TBC tbh

jesseSPANNER · 29/05/2015 at 09:30
Dang. I spent ages typing that message but i swore haha!
Basically. I wouldn't sideways to Buddy from Bont. Bont will be a great m6 at the end of year so HOLD. Im personally waiting for Buds to string some 100+ together to warrant his place. Plus the rd12 bye will be a killer if you have 1 or 2 of Titch, JPK, Parker or Hanners if you throw Buddy into the mix. Maybe a post-bye bye-in?
As for Rocky, do you need to do a secondary trade in order to get him? Id get rid of Cripps for him but check your rd 11 bye structure. May be worth holding off a few weeks

Hi Jesse
Yes I do need to do a secondary trade to get Rockliff. I would love to get him this week if I can. Cripps, I believe has a bit more mileage in him yet, so I think I will keep him and also he might go alright in a decimated carlton midfield.
My other option is to trade out brown and CEY and bring in rocky and say Glenn. However CEY will also have a bit more in him yet so I should keep him, that is why I thought of Tarrant to trade out.

@wheels_1987 · 29/05/2015 at 12:24
hold bont
get rocky

Nuggety · 29/05/2015 at 10:32
Is this like when u dreamt cey was suspended mate? Lol

Hazey · 29/05/2015 at 15:16
Haha…. Must’ve been! I swear I heard Jock say he was suspended in the Poddy!
I am entertaining my Mother In Law out here in Timor-Leste this week, so it’s call sorts of crazy! She’s on some herbal cigarette sh*te and keeps dropping bombs in the car that’d make a dog gag!

@wheels_1987 · 29/05/2015 at 12:25
Hazey
pls

Jambo · 29/05/2015 at 09:52
Hibberd has cracked the ton twice this year. I would avoid. I would also avoid Shiels. I would hold Sloane if you can. I looks like you don't need to trade this week.

Deadly · 29/05/2015 at 09:55
Sloane will be back in R10 or R12 so he will only miss 1 or 2 more matches. I know he will go down in price initially but he is a keeper so his price is not as important as saving one trade.
Sloane is another fallen star I plan to bring in, along with Goldy.

@wheels_1987 · 29/05/2015 at 12:26
Hold Ox
If you have held Sloan this long just keep him mate

Luke · 29/05/2015 at 14:57
Ok, will do. Sitting 2nd in my league at the moment, and about 9000 overall after a pretty average first few weeks. Annoyingly, started with both Parker and Beams who both have had slow starts, and Gary who I traded to Sloane….
If no to Oxley and Sloane(thought he was sill 4 weeks away) to Hibberd and Shiel, then what about a Salem to Franklin move? Would also need to trade McIntosh to someone cheap in the backline. Have Hamling already, maybe Kolo?(Geelong variant)
Currently have 22 trades and keep getting 2100-2200 most weeks. Looking to get that up to 2300 sooner rather than later.

@wheels_1987 · 29/05/2015 at 15:00
Salem to Franklin is a great trade
i prefer FWD MID players in my FWD line but Buddy is about to go BANG i rekon.
I traded Ablett to Sloan too. very painful move

Luke · 29/05/2015 at 15:05
Salem to Franklin and McIntosh to Kolo it is. McIntosh was on bench anyway. Projected 2317, not that I believe it lol.

Tophawk · 29/05/2015 at 10:16
I agree with you. Cripps has been superb and despite the fact he might have a decent game against the Swans, superstar Tom Rockliff at 465 K is the guy that will replace Crippsy. Logic and common sense should prevail here. Both Carlton and Brisbane both have the bye in round 11. Therefore, by bringing in Rocky for Cripps, there is no net negative impact on your teams structure going into the round 11 bye. For me, this trade ticks all the boxes.

Sarah · 29/05/2015 at 11:07
Exaclty, by trading to another round 11 bye player there is no negative impact to my teams bye structure. I already have Rockliff so I'm looking at Dahlhaus and Deledio to bring into my forward line. Leaning towards Dahlaus just because of the injury uncertainty surrounding Deledio. I'd rather have a premium round 11 bye player than a rookie round 11 bye player for the next 2 rounds.

I N Pieman · 29/05/2015 at 10:21
Good points Sarah. Wish I could get rid of him this week but it’s time to move Judd on. Will probably loop CRIPPS. Might role the dice on Buddy as well.

Sarah · 29/05/2015 at 11:08
I'm thinking of putting the VC on Buddy too. The only thing holding me back is talk of him having a sore ankle. Is he capable of a Captain's score with a sore ankle???

I N Pieman · 29/05/2015 at 11:18
I was thinking the same Sarah. Could kick a bag & score really well. With Fyfe back up its worth the risk

derek · 29/05/2015 at 12:20
JPK for VC. he will quietly collect 30+ mainly contested and before anyone notices he will be 140SC
Tag will go to Parker and hanaberry

Sarah · 29/05/2015 at 12:49
I'm tossing up between Franklin, JPK and Gray. Franklin has a dodgy ankle, JPK can tend to go missing against average sides and Gray may get the Vince tag… I wish Pendles was playing an early game!!

@wheels_1987 · 29/05/2015 at 12:28
depends who you are bringing in for him. unless your getting a proven elite player try and hold one more week

Sarah · 29/05/2015 at 12:32
Already have Rocky so thinking a POD in Dahlhaus or Deledio. Needs to be a round 11 bye player.

@wheels_1987 · 29/05/2015 at 12:35
i like Lids
such a gun
Get Lids
did i mention i like Lids?

Sarah · 29/05/2015 at 12:46
Lol, yeah you did mention that you liked Lids!! I'm kinda leaning towards Dahlhaus though as I'm a bit put off by the coach saying Lids was a week-to-week prospect. Also think he's more of a tag risk. I like Dahlhaus. The Bont and Macrae get tagged before he does and he's spending more time in the midfield these days. He's also a POD, in just 4.4% of teams and averaging 106.

brook · 29/05/2015 at 10:34
i have the same dilemma … leaning toward amon but he is at leadt a week behind glenn in cash generation due to subaffected scores. IF glenn plays next week he will have more $ upside UNLESS Amon scores around 80-90 this week and follows up with 50-70 scores. For me it is amon v R10 rookie as i will bring glenn in next week anyway … assuming he plays (injury report was encouraging but u never really know) … ideally i would like to hold but i need the cash to grab rocky. as usual, its a conundrum but thats why we love this game!

@wheels_1987 · 29/05/2015 at 12:29
Clark
but avoid any rookies this week

@wheels_1987 · 29/05/2015 at 12:30
This game tonight will definitely be banned from Red Tube – what is about to happen to Carlton will be likened to some very explicit and hardcore materials

Locked and Loaded · 29/05/2015 at 15:01
Hahaha!!

nathan · 29/05/2015 at 12:27
Gday guys
I have ryder as my f5 atm
What do I do?
Injured and not scoring well
Is it worth just holding him or moving him out?

JMG · 29/05/2015 at 12:45
Yes that’s the correct way to loophole.
I’d field Hogan or Clark

Sarah · 29/05/2015 at 12:54
Correct with the loophole.
I'd also field Hogan over Krak and Clark.

BigDropKick · 29/05/2015 at 13:02
Great thanks Sarah and JMG

Sarah · 29/05/2015 at 11:30
Option 1 without any regrets

beezneez · 29/05/2015 at 11:37
Thanks Sarah – I will go that way.
Trading Vandenberg last week didn't help my thinking.

Sarah · 29/05/2015 at 11:52
And sometimes that'll happen. I traded Vandenberg last week too!! You can't predict something like that.

JMG · 29/05/2015 at 12:47
Thanks mate think I needed that wake up call.

Mitch · 29/05/2015 at 13:02
So your saying I shouldn’t trade in Rocky? Everyone has a different sitch

@wheels_1987 · 29/05/2015 at 13:28
i just updated my speech to include rocky
thanks for the heads up

@wheels_1987 · 29/05/2015 at 13:34
UNLESS DONT DONT HAVE ROCKY
WE ALL SHOULD HAVE ROCKY
I LOVE ROCKY

OldOcker · 29/05/2015 at 17:15
"Do not bring in these raw, untrustworthy Rookies"
QUOTE "Consider a high risk move like Heeney to Steele"
A non playing rookie to a rookie that MIGHT get a game does not make sense.
I am painting the fence this week to get in a gun that makes my bye structure look really good.
Karl Amon just like any rookie appears to me that he may get games even though he has been vested in his first 2 games.
This week he is named on field and without Kane Cornes and with Polec being injured for another 5 or 6 weeks appears like a valid selection considering what is available. Amon did okay in the nab cup and has the round 13 bye as well which helps get through the other byes.
Everybody is in a different situation and part of my plan was to trade one gun in this week.
We all have different opinions too I suppose and this is mine.

@wheels_1987 · 29/05/2015 at 13:35
Lids

Locked and Loaded · 29/05/2015 at 15:02
Personally I'm writing off round 12. and will try and make up points in 11 & 13
