The Round 14 AFL Cheat Sheet
G’day Community,
What a massive week we have in front of us. This is the week we can just go BANG BANG BANG and bring in up to three premium players. This weeks Cheat Sheet is all about spending that sweet war chest we’ve saved up, if you haven’t saved up a war chest I’ll get to you soon. We have so many keepers available this round who have had their byes, some provide value, some provide consistency but all will provide a keeper for our fantasy teams. This is the round we can almost hit full premium (if we aren’t there already).
Players I’ve left off the Cheat Sheet but are still massive trade in targets are; Carlton duo Sam Docherty and Kade Simpson, both are a bit pricey but are having massive years (PS Sam Docherty I love you mate, I know you’ll be reading this so keep up the fantastic form). Next we have Scott Pendlebury who is pricey as hell but an out and out gun, also worth mentioning is his teammate Tom Phillips who has played just the one game but will be a good downgrade option this week or next. Sam Jacobs gets a mention as a POD ruck replacement although I’m steering clear. There is also a lot of talk about ex-Bulldog Sam Reid although my sources say he’s likely to be dropped this week with some players returning to the Giants lineup.
For those of you who haven’t set aside a war chest or at least are using a trade plan, I don’t want to say you’re stuffed but you might want to switch focus to your Thursday night CoachKings team. You can PLAY AT HOME on Thursday night for free.. with $500 up for grabs folks.
This Thursday the podcast crew and myself will be doing a live broadcast of the Adelaide v North Melbourne game via the inter-webs. Last time was an absolute blast but this time you get to play along with us in CoachKings. CoachKings will be available to play at home for free this week with some cash prizes to give away.
How to put your hat in the ring:
So if you want to know what we’re banging on about sign up free at coachkings.com.au, select your team on Thursday, flick on the Jock Reynolds radio stream on jockreynolds.com.au and listen to the dulcet tones of Jock, Higgo, Crouching One, Wayno and myself as we talk a whole lot of footy and a whole lot of rubbish.
CLICK HERE TO DISCUSS THURSDAY NIGHT’S COACHKINGS CONTEST.. AND FOR JOCK’S TEAM
I’m not just saying this, it is an absolute blast to play CoachKings and you’ll be able to compete with all of us at Jock HQ on the live leader board.
Alright, that’s enough from me I’ll see you in the comments.
Lekdog
Rance or Savage Lek?
Rance for points
Savage for a POD
I really like Savage to be honest, not as consistent but a higher ceiling I think. Both teams have similar runs home but St Kilda have Gold Coast, Essendon, Melbourne, Carlton, Richmond and Brisbane (final round) to come.
Thanks Lekdog
I think I will go for Savage
I was originally going to get him but changed my mind
Worth waiting a week on Kerridge to Deledio? Think it could save me $10-15,000
If you have enough players then yes for sure, I'm holding kerridge at this stage.
Crazy to think Kerridge and Petracca have the same break evens.
personally i think so, im actually keeping kerridge for the rest of the year due to my low number of trades but i think you should hold for one even two more weeks
Nice one mate. You gonna bring in #15 this week?
Barlow or deledio? This week
Gotta be Barlow this week if bringing in both eventually. Much lower be. Just one needed for me l. I went for deledio. Remember not having him to finish last year. Tigers came home strong and he seemed to be pumping out 120+ most weeks.
Really tough…Barlow and Fremantle will be up and down…back in Deledio's scoring history and hope for no injuries.
Barrlows tagging role worries me. Usually taggers score poorly
Could be the new Macaffer/Carrazzo they always scored reasonably haha
Coniglio has broken that trend that's for sure.
Deledio, there is always the risk that Barlow could get dropped if he goes out of form again
i would have to disagree, barlow IMO wont be dropped again and his price is set to soar so this is the cheapest you'll get him. however, deledio is very consistent and certainly wont be dropped and has already had his bye, but his has had injury troubles and his price is gonna drop so you will be able to get him cheaper
Guys need some help with my team:
Def: Shaw, Laird, Simpson, Rich, AMT, DBJ (Collins, Ruggles)
Mid: Danger, Parker, Selwood, Libba, Neale, Sam Mitchell, Pendlebury, Ablett (Snadden,Davis, Mathiseon)
Ruck: Gawn, Goldy (Grimley)
Fwd: zorko, hall, wells, kerridge,wright, petracca (rose, cox)
I have 10 trades left, was thinking of downgrading DBJ for Hipwood and then get in a premo just not sure who. Any help would be appreciated. Cheers
Petracca into Davis and bring in deledio would look nice.
You mean like swap Davis with petracca and upgrade Davis to Lids?
Yep
Community, plzz help me with trades this week, i have 10 trades left with 20k in the bank
def- shaw, simpson, laird, pittard, gibson, DBJ( collins, lee)
mid- danger, pendles, priddis, parker, shiel, s.mitchell, liberatore, dunkley( keays, trengove, macpherson)
ruck- gawn, goldstein
fwd- martin, montagna, zorko, barlow, merret, j kennedy( hall, petracca)
ANY IDEAS COMMUNITY WOULD FANTASTIC!!
McPherson to Phillips. Open up you mid/fwd swing.
Rosa is a risky, but super cheap defender. McVey great option for more in def. You wanna get a swing happening to use extra premo fwd. Alt trade one out and upgrade to elite mid.
Trade or hold Daulhaus? Only thing holding me back is only have 8 trades left with 3 off full premo but 600 k in bank
At this stage Im going to try hold Dahl as I think he'll be top 6 average for forwards on return. Tough call though assuming hes out another 4 weeks.. if you're low on trades and can upgrade elsewhere id hold.
I'm gong to trade Dahl for Lids this week and then trade Dahl back in again when his price drops. That is if he comes back. I've still got 15 trades left in the bank
HOLD, should be back in a couple weeks
I can hold but I'll be saving around $40K to 50K when his price drops and I'll be getting Lids at a dirty cheap price. Then I'll trade Petracca for Dahl at almost the same price when Dahl is good to go again
I'm going down to 6 trades this week and I'll still need 1 more to full premo…bang bang so much banging my bed it broke don't feel to bad about spending them, you can't take them into next season!
Apparently his leg is still in a splint.
Love the way he plays but I am trading him.
Cant see the Dogs risking him with finals on the agenda.
Thoughts on Steve Motlop as an F6/7 and M/9 swing? Dirt cheap at 380 k and a healthy average thoughts?
Excellent pick. Has rd15 bye though. I'd wait.
Pendlebury & Deledio coming in this week.
Also like the look of Sam Reid as a downgrade…but cant squeeze him in without moving Kerridge. Kerridge will score more, Reid will gain $, and with money saved from Kerridge downgrade more easily become Dahlhaus in 3-5 weeks.
Rance or Laird Lekdog?
I threw it out there on the last thread and got 3 bites for Laird what are your thoughts?
Laird for mine
Cheers mate.
I can see Rance coming out against bris and getting 83 intercept marks now…
Treloar monster BE and most likely to get the Barlow tag, would wait on him
He's getting sidebottom this week
I don't mind high B/E's on keepers, and agree with Mike that tag goes to Sidebum
Doubt Sidebum gets the tag, he has elite conditioning. Treloar is also the higher possession player… Easier to tag Treloar and more reward for doing it.
Downgrade DBJ for Hipwood leaving me with 260k. Then upgrade AMT to Rance (was going to get docherty but hopefully he'll drop in price this week so he's cheaper to bring in later)
Could also get Bartel
I like bartel
I am going tippa to rance DBJ to laird and Adams to Deledio
Bang!
Who to VC this week R.Sloane @ adelaide oval Thurdsday night vs North Melbourne or S.Pendlebury @ MCG Friday night vs Fremantle ???
Nice stuff Lek
Yes i did post this on the podcast comments but accidently said Laird instead of Sloane for some reason
Supposed to be stormy at Adelaide oval this tomorrow night. Not sure if this is good or bad for sloane
My Vc is Sloane this week
Im bringing in pendles this week and straight into my leadership group with the vc
I'm VCing Danger into Gaz. Cookie cutter but Danger as VC has done alright for me the past two weeks.
Community, r there any cheap rookies to bring in this week besides phillips, idc if theyre not on the bubble, any ideas community??
Reid at GWS. Questionable JS though. 50/50 if he gets picked this week.
As a F7 for $374 and cats easy run home, tempting, DPP!
I bit the bullet and brought him in. Straight swap for Tippa. Proven scorer. DPP
i'll look at him after his bye
no.. Motlop is an utter shit pick
Great stuff Lekdog! Thoughts on tippa to J. Jenkins at Adelaide? Bit of a pod and nice run home, but can share points with tex and Eddie betts. Or go to Deledio?
Already have dusty, wells, Robinson, Gunston, kerridge, Adams and petracca.
Was looking at Jenkins but I think you're better off with a Deledio type or Montagna
Definitely POD. I'm thinking about him. Will be more variable but can go very large. Of all the PODs shine at once can win the bikkies or jump up the rankings
If you need a boost up the ranks, consider. Otherwise a giant risk
If i traded in zorko i would have 4 players onfield for their round 15 bye. Still gives me 18 scorers playing which is fine i know.
Zorko better than Jenkins seems logical.
VC this week
Rockliff or Pendles
I like Rocky because he plays well in a losing side it may be similar to the blues game where they should do ok but play poorly
Also Pendles may get the tag
They won't bother tagging Pendles mate, doesn't phase him. Sidey or Treloar will cop it.
Stuck on what to do this week community would appreciate some help!
Team is
shaw simpson docherty laird bartel adams byrne-jones collins
danger pendles ward parker ablett libba kerridge dunkley stewart trengove d.cuningham
goldy gawn cox
zorko barlow martin hall amtippa petracca menadue philips
have 550k and 14 trades
Looking to bring in sloane then undecided where to move next. was planning to go amt/adams to dahlhause but he got injured and i cant decide other then him
thanks everyone
Having NicNat and Tippett gone. Ruck is a gamble. Thinking Hampson. DPP and thinking will average 90 for the year. Same cost as Martin and both risky. Gut is telling me Hampson. Have Currie as 3rd ruck. Hopefully his finger will improve. Traded out Goldie for Gawn. Just think Goldie is a risk. And can't afford him 🙂
Would consider Hampson as a R3/F7, a better option is Blicavs if you are short on cash. If you have trades, maybe he could be a M9 later in the season and get Goldy/Nic Nat/Tippett then
Ranked 170th, 426 points off the lead overall. Obviously will still need a lot of luck to win it, but I am in as good a position as I have ever been. 11 trades remaining after this week.
Will be making 3 trades this week. Out: Libba, DBJ, McDT. In: Simpson, Phillips and ????? At this stage I have gone Rance.
Current team is:
DEF: Shaw Docherty Simpson Laird Rance McVeigh (Ruggles, Collins)
MID: Danger Pendles Ablett Sloane Rockliff Parker Priddis Rich (Hopper, Stewart, Trengove)
RUCK: Gawn NicNat (Wyatt)
FWD: Zorko, Martin, Barlow, Greene, Hall, Petracca (Phillips, Grimley)
Round 15 trade: Rich to Montagna/Deledio
Round 16 trades: Petracca to Hanneberry, NicNat to Goldy.
Any better choice than Rance. Can be any line. Should I look at a POD instead?
Looks pretty solid to me, you are doing better than a lot of us so what you have been doing is obviously working. I have been pretty happy with Bartel down back instead of Rance maybe.
Round 15 is the problem with Bartel
So you are willing to cop the Nic Nat donut in Round 15? Probably better off getting Goldy in this week and maybe leaving Libba for later. Will get more points overall then
I am happy to cop the donut. Will be a donut either way and will be saving $20k+ in round 16. At this stage will only have 17 next week, but probably go hopper up next week if I can afford it to get 18
deal with Nic Nat now.
You reckon its worth the extra $$$'s compared to round 16? I have 20 on field this week and already held nicnat for 1.
Pretty much forced to do it now…
Drop Danger so we can catch up.
Gotta fix the Nic Nat issue. Don't go eating fatty sugary food. Its not good for your supercoach health. Look to run 20+ most weeks over the byes to get good points…
Thoughts on bringing in S.Mitchell. Super cheap and Hodge back should help him.
If you are short on cash and not many Round 15 bye players out, a good option
that is what i was thinking Danners. great option if you are a bit short on cash
Already went DBJ to Simpson
what are your thoughts on these trades for myself?
Like Docherty and Bartel actually
Wells not on the plane to Adelaide folks…
Let the carnage commence
Deledio or Martin and why.
I would back in Martin mate, he has been in outstanding form and looks to be able to run out games now. Is the tigers main man now think he has overtaken Lids in SC relevance.
Agree although Deledio can go big just hasn't yet.
There's also the POD factor as Dusty is in 40% of teams vs 4% with Deledio.
So whilst you could be ahead of a large majority of teams if Deledio outscores martin you'll also be behind a lot if he doesn't.
Libba to Sloane. Good upgrade or wasted trade. Thoughts?
If you have the trades, a good move
Talked myself into this trade last night
Thanks Andrew, nearly too cheap to pass on.
Hey Lek,
Any love toward holding the D6 spot for Johannisen on his return? Only a 78K jump from AMT or $134K from B-J.
I like the move but wouldn't lock him in the week he returns that's for sure.
I am saving it for him
If you don't have Boyd, a good move
Yep, JJ will be my d6.
Toying with bringing him in and probably will unless another premo has fallen and is ripe for the picking.
Here is my team: https://imgur.com/a/OhH5h
Starting to get low on trades and round 15 is looking like a worry for a lot of coaches.
My trades this week are looking like:
Nic Nat to Stefan Martin
Ben Ken to Lids
Last trade is still uncertain may go Tippa to Docherty/ Simpson/ Rance
This leaves me with Collins on the bench and Brand on the bench which I have heard rumours that he might play. This would leave me with about 200k in the bank and 7 trades.
If I complete trades like these would consider Rich to one of the 3 defenders listed above depending on his game this week before his bye. At this point I would rather hold Brodie Smith as d6 rather than Rich I believe he has found a bit of form and with the soft draw to finals could prove a good pick. The rest of the money I have remaining could be used in a few weeks after the byes to go Wines/Libba to Neale/Hanners as they will both be pretty cheap. I know this would leave my team without Pendles however I do not want to pay that much cash to get him and will reconsider if he has a poor game to drop in price. Also considering upgrading Smith to Hanners in a few weeks and loopholing Libba and Wines each week.
Any advice is welcomed!
Sounds like decent trades for you. I'd unload on Liberatore last perhaps
Wells confirmed out.
How long for?
Need some help community!
Looking for some pod selections to make a late run at it. Like stkildas and Adelaides run home but can't decide between Sloane and Stevens …
Thoughts??
It's a tough one, Both need a bit of ball to score. Sloane is their only gun mid so be wary
Sloane is more of a chance to average better
Whats the community thoughts on Deledio vs Montgagna. Who do people consider will score more on the run home?
Lids definitely, unless he gets injured which is the risk with him.
I have the same problem. Cash is always handy to have late in the season, but if you already have that Deledio always has a strong end to the season
Docherty and Rance if you want to play it safe.
Doch is expensive but is 3rd in the comp for intercept marks (3 per game and intercept contested marks are worth 8 points alone in SC) he also racks up the disposals.
Bartel and Rance are also a good option.
Not convinced on Tarrant.
Actually think J-Howe is an option
Deledio or Zorko this week?
Deledio this week, already had his bye. Zorko should drop another $10k after this week then has his bye. Bring him in round 16.
Like Johno said, Deledio if you need someone this week, Zorko is the better option though
both are set to drop in price but i would also get deledio, already had his bye. tbh you should already have zorko by now, an absolute necessity in supercoach
Hey Lekdog. I have 13 trades and $42k.
Decision time and the defence needs work…
Team:
Def: Shaw, Rance, Rich, KK, AMT, Ruggles (S.Collins, B.Williams
Mids: Danger, Selwood, Ablett, Pendles, Parker, Ward, Rocky, Libba (Petraca, Keays, Trengove)
Rucks: Gawn, Goldtein (Cox)
Fwds: Martin, Zorko, Deledio, Wells, Hall, Kerridge (Rose, Grimley).
Have enough cover this week with Wells out. Can't get Docherty without 3 X trades and considering 2 X trades this week:
AMT & Keays out to
1. Simpson & Philips or
2. Laird & Philips?
Wow and I thought I'd gone skinny in defence.
Yep – it's paper thin Northernsoul74. I've been stuck with KK & Rich since the start & stuffed some trades early on.
Rance or Bartel
Bartel I've had him all year and I'm very happy with him in my top 6 defenders
Bartel will miss a game somewhere
Not sure about this now. Week off next week then another one before the finals
bartel for sure, much more consistent and plays more of a loose role in defence compared to rances one on one role
Big week, big trades option 2:
Wines OUT GAJ IN
Libba OUT Trac to MID Lids IN (the return of my MID/FWD swing)
Tippett OUT Dusty IN
Leaves 7 trades, $333K in the bank, 18 on field this week and the following team:
DEF: Heater, Bartel, Williams, Laird, Ruggles, Brand (Wagner (BYE), Collins (E))
MID: Danger, Jelwood, Ward, GAJ, Davis, Stewart, Hanners (BYE), Parker (BYE) (Priddis (BYE), Trac (BYE), Trengove (BYE))
RUC: Goldy, Gawn (BYE) (King (BYE))
FWD: Zorks, Dusty, Wells (OUT), Kerridge, Hall, Lids (Rose (BYE) (Buddy (BYE))
Need to rely on the likes of Wells, Kerridge, Hall & Petracca doing the job of a premium, plus 2 DEF premos to lock in.
Is this a better move than my previous post as below:
Wines OUT GAJ IN
Wagner OUT Docherty IN
Tippett OUT Dusty IN
Leaves 7 trades, $129K in the bank, 17 on field this week and the following team:
DEF: Heater, Doch, Bartel, Williams, Laird, Collins (Ruggles, Brand)
MID: Danger, Jelwood, Ward, GAJ, Libba (BYE), Priddis (BYE), Davis, Stewart (Hanners (BYE), Parker (BYE), Trengove (BYE))
RUC: Goldy, Gawn (BYE) (King (BYE))
FWD: Zorks, Dusty, Wells (OUT), Kerridge, Hall, Rose (BYE) (Buddy (BYE), Petracca (BYE))
Chaos in the house. All trades reversed. Just got home to find that Wells to miss this week and next (Bye)………… Is his body crumbling? Is time to take the $536K and run? Bloody hell. The heat is on.
Any thoughts?
Wells = Lids and some cash back
His scores over the past month suggests he is in the form of his career rather than crumbling. Two weeks off to get his ankle/calf right and he'll be fine
yep… and laird was only going to miss 2 weeks as well. im trading wells out… whoever says they are resting him is a fool… nth melbourne are not even likely to make the top 4…wells will be done for a month 🙂 enjoy
get tex in lol
Depends on who you'd trade him to tophawk. IMO stick to whatever your initial plan for the byes was. So if you'd planned to hold him next week anyway then just missing this week as well isnt too bad.
I reckon most will hold him Tophawk. Unless you don't have Lids, Zorko or Dusty and have plenty of trades I'd hold too.
Have you got decent benchcover for this round or were you relying on his score being one of your 18?
I can imagine that in your position you're looking for a way you can jump the pack but you also need to be real careful you don't pick a bum trade and fall back to the pack.
Shark move! I will play like a dolphin and hold Wells
Great work Lek! Not sure whether I'm doing the right moves this week
At the moment I have 8 trades, $285,500 in the bank (seems as though I have been riddled with injuries this season)
DEF: Shaw, Bartel, Simpson, Rance, Boyd, AMT (Tucker, S.Collins)
MID: Dangerfield, Pendlebury, Hannebery, Ablett, Shiel, Rockliff, Libba, Kerridge (Joyce, Dunkley, Trengrove)
RUCK: Goldstein, Gawn (Chol)
FWD: Zorko, Dusty, Barlow, Hall, Dahlhaus, Petracca (Phillips, Menadue)
Looking at doing this week
Petracca to Deledio
AMT to Laird
($23,600 in bank and about 20 playing)
Next week
Kerridge to Treloar
Tucker/Collins/Menadue/Dunkley to rookie (depends on who is playing)
(About $60k in the bank and about 18 playing)
Thoughts?
really good trades, after that it only leaves you with libba and petracca to upgrade. however im still not sold on rance but id leave him last as a luxury upgrade, same goes with hall
thoughts on josh jenkins as a POD over montagna?
If you need a boost up the ranks, consider Jenkins. But if you are ranked pretty high up, Montagna would be the safer option
Yea Im sitting mid 2000's and feeling like i need to take a risk. I've been destroyed by injuries all year (like many of us) and almost at wits end feeling so risky haha
never really rate tall forwards so it would be montagna for me
Agreed, my whole forward line is MID/FWD except Deledio but he is basically in that category anyway.
Could be good to have a tall forward or two as PODs but stuff it I want consistency.
Going a bit different:
Adams to Rance (upgrade)
Hall to S.Mitchell (proven sidegrade)
AMT to Phillips (cash move)
Will give me $300k for next weeks upgrades – forward line needs lots of work (10 trades left after these 3)… backs and mids mostly settled. Only have Zorko, Merrett and possibly Wells as keepers. Looking at Lids and Montagna but both with price drops might be within my wheelhouse in the next week or two. Anyone else up forward apart from Dusty is a must get for the run home?
Hall is expected back this weekend.
Is nick riewoldt back this week? Thoughts on him if he is? Has scored pretty well all year.
Good POD imo. Only 3%ownership.
Hey guys,
If I can field 18 this week, should I still get out Nic Nat this week for Goldy? Goldy for sure will be my next Premo ruck to sit next to Gawn on field for the rest of the season, however Goldy still looks underdone, has a formidable opponent in Jacobs this week and has a BE of 160+ again this week (about 167).
Should I continue to hold off Goldy until he’s had his Bye, comes back fresh before Rd 16, or make the move this week community?
I have 11 trades left currently (without having made any yet this week).
Option 1:
Jump on Goldy now, no use holding Nic Nat around anymore even if you’re going to field 18 this week.
Option 2:
Hold off for longer until Goldy has had his Bye and depreciated further in value and comes back fresh, then look to make the move then.
Also, looking to bring in either of Montagna/Deledio for DBJ (via DPP) and either Laird/Rance for AMT/Adams at this stage with my trades. BANG BANG.
Here's some extra info of my team too.
Cash left: $382,500
DEF: Shaw, Docherty, Simpson, Bartel, Collins, Tucker (DBJ (BYE), AMT (BYE))
MID: Danger, Pendles, GAJ, Ward, Wines (BYE), Hall, Trengrove (BYE), Jansen (BYE) (Hannebery (BYE), Libba (BYE), DMacPherson)
RUCK: Gawn (BYE), Nic Nat (Wyatt)
FWD: Martin, Wells (OUT), Zorko, Barlow, Kerridge, Adams (BYE) (Petracca (BYE), Menadue)
If you bring in Goldy this week he should score better than one or more of your rookies. Therefore it will give you a better score at the end of the day. If your going to bring in Goldy for Nic Nat now is as good a time as any. I'm going to do the same thing myself tomorrow.
I'm trading in Lids, Goldy and Sloane or Steven and out Dalh, Nic Nat and Libba

i'd go steven instead of sloane, steven has a huge ceiling and a better POD
That was my thinking but the only issue is his averages against Geelong (79.3) Richmond (80.8) & Brisbane (81) all side that he will be coming up against shortly. So The Sloane Ranger on the other hand has gotten better as the year has gone on and Adelaide have a soft run home. He averages 117.1 at AO and the Crows play 6 of 10 games there on the run home
Went with The Sloane Ranger and I'm very happy with it at the moment with 145 points
Plan was DJB-Rance AMT-Deledio, latter is still on the cards but the former more i think about it the more I can't see Rance going more than 95.
yeah im a richmond supporter and i dont think rance is a top six defender, however he is extremely cheap atm so the gamble is yours
can i play coachkings at home thursday night on my laptop or pc?? or do i need to play it through the phone??
pretty sure you can play on the laptop
cheers mate, i will give it a go..
Community, whats more important to do
DBJ to docherty
or
dunkley to ablett?
i'd say DBJ to dochert, ablett injury prone and docherty has a massive ceiling
If able to afford, is anyone thinking of perhaps bringing in Stef as a third ruckman? He is relatively quite cheap right now, and should Goldy/Gawn go down, it gives you ready made cover. Or is too much to spend on someone who'll be on the bench mostly?
think thats a dumb idea, yes goldy has been out for one match this year through injury but you shouldnt waste a trade and $360k for a bench player
DEF: H.Shaw – J.Bartel – K.Simpson – A.Rance – R.Laird – T.Ruggles(S.Collins – L.Austin*)
MID: P.Dangerfield – GAJ – T.Rockliff – L.Parker* – M.Priddis* – O.Wines* – T.Liberatore* – S.Kerridge (R.Davis – K.Stewart – J.Trengove*)
RUCK: M.Gawn* – N.Naitanui** (S.Grimley*)
FWD: D.Zorko – D.Martin – A.Hall – Z.Merrett* – A.Mc-T* – D.Wells* (M.Adams* – C.Petracca*)
$577,100 in the bank, was originally looking at Adams and McTip out to Montagna and Lids, leaving Hall as F7/M9 after byes but Wells late out leaves me with 17.
First, is it a waste to bring in both Montagna and Lids?
And what's the best way to field a full team?
Was thinking either NicNat to Martin, or Libba to Neale/Sloane but worried about Martin, however the extra funds vs Goldy could allow Pendles to come in later.
My other upgrade targets are Hanners and Docherty
Any better moves I'm missing?
I should mention, 12 trades left
ffs ive only got 4 trades, lucky that will be enough to have a full premo. was so bad at sc at the start of the season and have improved a ton, to bad i had to burn through trades because of my early season mistakes
Anyone looking at Mitchell as a POD?
tom or sam? cause if its tom than yeah he would be a very good POD, sam not so much
Hold or flick Wines? What are you guys doing?
i'd flick him, so many better options, definitely needs upgrading
I'm going to hold him (and Libba) until I'm full 'premo' with good bench cover. Then hope to have some extra cash left for an upgrade.
Trade In Rance Or Simpson
simpson for sure, more consistent
wait another week on Rance…BE 95
BE of 95 is nothing? Won't bleed much and he's had his bye, now is the time to lock him in if they want him.
bye rounds no issue, can cover 18 the next 2 rounds
AMT, Byrne, Kerridge > Lids, Bartel, Zorko
thoughts? better options?
I know you said byes are ok, but I would aim to field more than 18. Waiting will also let price of your upgrade targets bottom out
Cannot get my head around this, what you guys think is the better option??
Docherty, Sloane
Simpson, Steven
Thanks 🙂
For POD's definitely Steven and Sloane.
For most reliable Simpson and Docherty
Biggest ceiling would be Steven and Docherty
Thanks ! But I need to choose to have Docherty+Sloane or Simpson+Steven
Ideally o would of went Docherty and Steven but I'm 15k short
Doc & Sloane for mine. Doc has been a beast so far this year and you know you'll get a solid 100ave from Sloane for the rest of the year.
Mmm yeah from the mid I'm wanting a 110 average, 100 won't cut it..
You're essentially asking will Doc & Sloane score more than Simmo & Steven? Flip a coin, based on year to date stats.
Doc ave 110, Sloane 107.
Simmo 105, Steven 110.
To me it's very line ball but i'd rather have Doc over Simmo (I have both but if I had to choose on it's be Doc). Sloane and Steven are both capable of big scores and both have a high tackle count (which I rate highly in a mid).
Hold or keep Dahlhaus?
Already doing Tippa to Rance this week and thinking of Dahlhaus, Kerridge or Petracca to Deledio.
Really unsure what to do this week. Have 18,900
Def: Shaw, Docherty, Bartel, Gibson, Laird, Ruggles (Tucker, Collins)
Mid: Dangerfield, Titch, Sloane, Ablett, Rockliff, Lewis, Sidebottom, Parker (Petracca, Trengrove, Menadue)
Ruck: Gawn, Goldstein (Grimley)
Fwd: Zorko, Merret, Dusty, Gunston, Hall, Wells (McGovern, Hams)
Thinking of going to McGovern, Ruggles & Mendue > Kade Simpson, Tom Phillips and Reid leaving me 50,900 and only 5 trades left but a complete team in my opinion. Not much room if injuries hit which I'm sure they will:)
Bang bangers
So many options this week Community, it's making my head hurt and I need some help. Looking to trade Tippa for Bartel, Laird or Savage or DBJ to Laird/Savage (can't afford Bartel). Also should I trade Adams to Deledio or N Reiwoldt or downgrade Hewett (are there any decent options?). Appreciate any thoughts?
Who are the guys to rival Pendles from here to the end of the season but are cheaper?
Ablett and Rockliff.
Morning gents, currently sitting about 1000th overall with the following;
11 trades, bugger all cash left after bang-bang
Def: shaw, docherty, bartel, enright, laird, o mcdonald (ruggles, collins)
Mid: His majesty (danger) the great one (ablett) pendles, parker, gray, treloar, shiel, sloane (trengove, keays, menapoo)
Ruc: gawn, martin (grimley)
Fwd: dusty, lids, wells, hall, montagna, z. Merret (petracca, cox)
Traded in lids and sloane this week.
Been top 1000 for a few years now but just decided to have a red hot crack this year and take some risks to gain on the leaders – any thoughts/advice?
It's difficult to comment as you have such a good team and well placed. I can only guess but I think that it would be very similar to the leaders teams. Therefore catching them will be difficult without POD's. No Goldy is one. Shiel and Treloar maybe. Enright. I would look at Hall Wells and O McDonald. Think JJ or McVeigh. Maybe up forward its a key position player like Kennedy, Franklin, Walker or Riewoldt. I know your midfield looks done, but maybe a Hodge or Mitchell in there. So rather than Sloane this week, move lids into mids and bring in Walker or Riewoldt. Next week JJ and replacements for Wells and Hall. After his bye Hodge. I know it's risky, but if your aim is to win, then I think it's going to need something a little crazy. Good luck!
Should I upgrade AMT yet?
Yes – its a perfect time to
I am facing the same dilemma John except I am trying to decide between him and DJB.
Is Stefan Martin going to be the real deal now??
That's the big question. I'm going to take a hit by fielding 17 this week (would be 18 but Wells…), hold onto Nic Nat to see how Goldy and Martin go this week. I think it's worth a big donut this week to get another look at these two, I can't afford to jump the gun with limited trades.
Hoping Martin has another big one so I go bring him in after his bye and save some cash.
Can I have this weeks lotto numbers as well please?
ha yeah sure. my prediction is martin will be the big talking point in supercoach over the next 6 weeks as the number 1 ruckman.
watch this space fail
Still can't decide.
Deledio or Montagna or Merrett???
Merrett is super consistent. Joey is cheap and Lids could explode I the latter part of the season. Depends on w you want to come for.
Hehe he…you still flipping that one around Beard?!
You need a three sided coin mate!
Mate it's doing my head in. I really don't know who to pull the trigger on…
It's that time of the season where every trade feels like it could make or break you eh?
I'd go Lids myself but you can make a solid argument for all three, with these type of calls i often end up asking myself who I would have picked to be in my side at the start of the season and going with that. It's not exactly scientific but I can live with it!
Yeh well Lids was way over priced then. Now he's come into his own though Merrett is just so consistent at the moment.
I'm now thinking it might be best for me to wait a week and see what Lids & Montagna do to convince me and if neither do go Merrett….
Merrett, points machine
Allot of super sides. Winnings will come down to captains choice one thinks
Bring in Pendles in my MID or Montagna in my FWD?
I always go for the player with the higher average (Pendels 120)
sloane, neale or ablett? also should i trade libba or gresham to them.
not sure if anyone has posted about this yet …
Assuming your like me and have NOT got Lids/Rance. (18 on field this week)
Looking at the most previous performances of them, they seem to have both scored poorly V Brisbane.
So…. Maybe a rookie avg score of say 60-70 may not be that far of a 90 or so each from the Rich duo?
Then again…. they may go 120+ and ruin all chances to gain a few hundred spots overall of we are to miss out on them.
Anyone else in a similar situation?
Maybe the Rance option is valid (price influenced) but Lids could be worth waiting on… yes? … no..?
would you guys bring in blicavs or barlow…assuming we are thinking of down the road, they both have byes next week, is there another as good that doesnt have a bye?
different spots bud… If you think Goldy's knee won't hold up and Sauce/Martin are not for you (assuming you've got Gawn) then Blicavs is a valid selection.
Barlow (fwd) is valid, but a risk of the wrath of Ross
Neither are valid in the Mid.
Barlow fwd
Is Tom Philips playing or not?
Will need to wait till teams named tonight. I'm stuffed what I'll do if he is not named!
tipping he'll play all year big G unit
they don't exactly have a flock of players banging the door down, he'll stay
Anyone feeling a little short of players with Wells out?
Need a downgrade target in my backline Lekdog, and like the advice re Hipwood but haven't seen him play. Who is the best option out of:
– Hipwood ($162,300)
– Aliir Aliir ($123,900)
– Logan Austin ($$162,300)
– Jason Ashby ($165,100)
I'm thinking Hipwood and Ashby have best JS, but Ashby mature recruit so may stay in the side until the end of the season?
Hard to ignore Aliir for greater cash generation, but JS concern I guess…
It's really scraping the bottom of the barrel with all these guys.
I'd go for JS none of them will make significant profit.
Ashby will play at least 2/3's of the rest of the year for the bombers it that helps.
Make or break for him so they're gonna give him a decent run.
I would consider M Brown from West Coast. Surely he has better js than these guys. Not named yet, but not too far off
G'Day Community!
Trying to decide whether to go Sloane or S. Mitchell?
Thoughts would be kindly appreciated?
Cheers
sloane, easy run home..not an easily tagged dinosaur who will be rested
Go The Sloane Ranger on the other hand has gotten better as the year has gone on and Adelaide have a soft run home. He averages 117.1 at AO and the Crows play 6 of 10 games there on the run home
Do we think Stewart will get a game? I think he will be dropped but I just need him to play this one game during the byes. If he is dropped will have to field 17 due to Wells out
he hasnt put a foot wrong since his first game, will a hardluck story if hes dropped
rioli is out, He plays as a small defensive forward. Me thinks he will this week
I can't believe I just did this, but I just traded in Reece Conca at around $285K for Trent West.
Will get me through the next two byes with 18 players, and should be able to pump out some decent scores at F7, whilst also providing a good Loophole option and fwd /mid swing bench cover.
But, will he be able to stay on the park for an extended period? When you've got bad Hammy's, they are very difficult to overcome.
Thoughts?
Looking to bring in pendles and Docherty over the the next 2 weeks.
Who to bring in this week? Worried barlow will go to pendles and doch plays gws at spotless
Pendles does not give a hoot about tags.
Phillips DROPPED.
?
Can we have a source of that mail please Jeremy?
Apparently was reported on Fox Sports News; however, this is the only written source I've found unfortunately: http://www.fansunite.com.au/2016/06/23/36419/clok… Let's hope they're off the mark!
1. Bartel & Simpson
OR
2. Docherty & Savage
Bartel + Simpson probably average 100 each for rest of the year so 200 ave combined,
Docherty potential to ave 110-115 plus 90 for Savage makes it dead even, maybe slight edge to Docherty?
Worried about the Cats resting Bartel…
I can see Bartel getting a week off but not more than that unless injured. The Cats will make sure he gets to 300 games also. He is on 296.
I think that they'll rest him in round 20 against Ess, the first week of supercoach finals. Just my theory.
That is a chance, they may rest even Danger, Selwood.
I'd say Enright is a high chance.
Don't forget there's a bye week before finals this year, that may mean teams are less likely to rest players this time around.
community I can have 2 of rance, laird and savage. thoughts and opinions thanks
Current mids.
Hannas, Parker, Sloane, ward, danger, Selwood, Steven, Adams.
Now Adams confirmed out 4 more weeks need to trade.
Thoughts?
Can go pendles but money saved going to say Neale I can upgrade AMT to rance?
Treloar?
Pretty much afford anyone up to Neale to allow me to bring in rance.
