1st everyone hates the hawks because theyre the best , now theyre tanking after 4 losses lol

Derek · 21/04/2017 at 13:04
its been over 12 months since the poor hawks have won a premiership, about time they were given a priority trade.

INPieman · 21/04/2017 at 13:19
Derek they need a Priority pick just to have any sort of pick this year. They got nothing. Gave up 2 years worth of picks completely to get TMitch & JOM. And I for one am loving it. Saints fans salivating

gator59 · 21/04/2017 at 14:26
Yep we sure are INP..

FetusDave · 21/04/2017 at 15:23
Haha great call, and hopefully. Will give the Saints the No. 1 pick next year.

Skindog · 21/04/2017 at 15:40
The Hawks have been tanking since last season, just so we can get back that packet of chips and the half sucked tic tac we gave up for Vickery, but nothing will. E better than watching the two drug king pins fighting over the peptides and the shards on Anzac Day,,,,

Swannie · 21/04/2017 at 11:04
I would look at Fiorini (GC) for Taranto…

Swannie · 21/04/2017 at 11:07
Fiorini for Taranto – B/E -8 and looks like price up by approx $42k and hasn't been laying that bad

Swannie · 21/04/2017 at 11:08
That's playing

Kev · 21/04/2017 at 13:02
That's just one midpricer for another imo. Fiorini won't be a keeper. If you can cover Taranto then hold him.

KIMMY · 21/04/2017 at 14:37
Cant cover him, any options? What about rough?

KIMMY · 21/04/2017 at 14:37
Getting rid of rough and taranto that is

Patch · 21/04/2017 at 12:59
Dusty should have a better showing than last week, but with a groin niggle he wouldn't be my first choice as captain.
If you can paint the fence (one up, one down) with Rough and TT, I'd do so. You could go early on someone like Fisher, or bring in Balic hoping he comes back in next week. I'm still up in the air if I trade at all

Raging Bulls · 21/04/2017 at 11:10
hold son.

krups · 21/04/2017 at 12:34
Jocks view from fox footy site:
TOM MITCHELL
WE selected Tommy as a keeper and after four games his average of 105 is at least 10 points per game off the pace.
Mitchell’s breakeven is now up to 138 this week. With another potential belting coming from the Eagles, if you hold young Tom he could drop down to the low $500k range and leave you struggling for a replacement.
Tommy, I cherish the time I spent chasing skirt in the 80s with your old man. However, in this game there is no room for sentiment. Out you go son.

undypuncher · 21/04/2017 at 12:43
Of your gonna go trading out every failed premo youll have no trades by the byes

Sassy foods · 21/04/2017 at 12:56
That's absolutely bonkers. I've got him and I'm ranked pretty high. I've got at least eight more pressing issues than tom Mitchell, being on field rookies and mid pricers that are performing well but untrustworthy.
Seriously, he is averaging 105 in a four game losing streak. What happens when they win?

krups · 21/04/2017 at 13:18
Just because teams win doesn't mean scores automatically go higher vs losses? Just look at Tom Rockliff last week in a losing side. In your view if Lions beat the dogs Rocklff will score higher than he did last week vs the tigers. Nope i think not. Have fun with that thought process. That is one example of many I could give.

krups · 21/04/2017 at 13:20
Also help if he didnt have 8 [email protected]#$ing clangers last week

TigerMAN · 22/04/2017 at 00:25
I've got him. Definite hold. First two games were better than his last two. But you must keep him

Patch · 21/04/2017 at 12:59
Hold. He's been disappointing but we've got bigger fish to fry.

Steven · 21/04/2017 at 15:05
When he wants to kick the ball instead of handpass and not turn ball over he will be fine

JamiesNinjas13 · 22/04/2017 at 00:28
avg 105 and you want to trade him? Oh my….

TRIGGER HAPPY · 21/04/2017 at 11:15
[email protected]ing gold pie!
When the pieces get back to his family the knee will be missing as he ain't got one.

INPieman · 21/04/2017 at 11:22
The Hawks might finally be thinking behind closed doors they've made a BIG mistake Trig

TRIGGER HAPPY · 21/04/2017 at 12:09
Sold the farm and the farm next door for him
They gave up their first round pick next year right?
So does that mean currently GC have the number one pick?

Wedge · 21/04/2017 at 12:48
St kilda have it. Very convoluted process

Wedge · 21/04/2017 at 12:50
http://www.heraldsun.com.au/sport/afl/teams/hawth…

INPieman · 21/04/2017 at 12:55
The Hawks traded to the Saints 2 x second round picks in the 2016 draft which they got Ben Long & Josh Battle & Hawks 1st round pick in 2017, & as I stands that is Pick 1. In return the Hawks got Pick 10 2016 which they used to get JOM. Unlikely the Saints will EVER get a better deal. It shouldn't have been sanctioned by the AFL but they were asleep at the wheel when it happened

Choppers · 21/04/2017 at 14:25
Suns have Hawk's 2nd round pick…probably 19-25

Josh · 21/04/2017 at 12:50
Preuss will be better for the rest allowing bigger score next week and $$$ generation after Sandy and Goldy beat the crap of each other. All the rest agree with your rant

INPieman · 21/04/2017 at 13:21
By his own admissions Preuss is far from fit. I'm sure a week off will do him well. Hope he's back next week

Derek · 21/04/2017 at 14:25
i was going to punt Preuss for SMartin.
I can go Hibberd >> SMartin and leave Preuss at R3.
Do you really think it is just a one week out?

INPieman · 21/04/2017 at 14:49
I guess we will know more next week. But in an interview 2 weeks ago Brad Scott said he would be experimenting with Goldy Pruess & Daw in different ways all year. After hearing that I punted Goldy

leedy · 21/04/2017 at 22:22
I'd hold off at least one more week for Preuss as his cash generation is still rolling on with a b/e of 7.

Patch · 21/04/2017 at 13:02
Love it, Trigger! Cheers mate! Given Kev full control of the reigns so who knows what we're in for next week!

INPieman · 21/04/2017 at 13:08
Also have SPP with the E on him. No shortage of loophole options. If that goes pear shaped then I can consider options

Kev · 21/04/2017 at 13:15
Is the Panic Room really a Panic Room without Simpsons references? Patch will be back in a few weeks. The Panic Room you know and love won't change too much

Derek · 21/04/2017 at 13:19
i'll have Pickett and SPP with the big E tonight.
if they spud i only have Parfitt and Berry as back up for second bite of the cherry…. oh my.

Seeker · 21/04/2017 at 16:47
Hey Derek, Berry worth a trade in or did you start with him ?

Youngy · 21/04/2017 at 11:16
No

Josh · 21/04/2017 at 12:53
Why No – made some cash on him and he may struggle to play for a while. Dunno bout you but need cash and need to paint the fence now. He is not playing so he is not making cash so he can be traded.

lach · 21/04/2017 at 11:39
very very bad trades my friend

Patch · 21/04/2017 at 13:03
Regardless of if it's Sam or Tom, hold your premiums mate. Would hold Newman – will come back in eventually (hopefully in a week or two)

Plakka · 21/04/2017 at 18:57
At this point given the general bloody mindedness of this season you could be as right to do that as not. Back yourself son, the crowd is struggling this year!

lach · 21/04/2017 at 11:40
bad bad move. Treloar will be best on ground anzac day you watch.

Beezneez · 21/04/2017 at 11:40
I'm giving that trade one more week to assess – Treloar may start to actually kick the ball to good effect (playing Essendon).

TBone · 21/04/2017 at 11:51
I wouldn't Adam. Youre paying extra money and a trade to go from ultra premo to ultra premo. If you just give him time, treloar will reward you. Not worth it, but its your team so up to you

wighty · 21/04/2017 at 12:35
Never forget sc rule 101 re sideways trade…..always bite you. Hanneberry and GAJ already this year.

Seeker · 21/04/2017 at 16:49
A lot of people also side traded out JJK and Tom J Lynch only to have them score big a week later

Patch · 21/04/2017 at 13:05
Do it… because if you trade him, Murphy's Law says he'll start averaging 130 and will please everyone (inlcuding me) who holds him. I'd play it smart and wait for someone else to trigger Murphy's Law: HOLD.

Rocket · 21/04/2017 at 16:32
I am tempted to do this to Adam, Treloar to Rocky and O'Meara to Stef Martin, swing Nank forward,structually looks great…. Just cant pull that trigger just yet tho, i need to be convinced it isnt a good move …

Crowmagnon · 21/04/2017 at 16:40
Omeara to stef is a great trade by itself.

redherringfc · 21/04/2017 at 17:07
Thanks Crowmagnon, i was going to sit tight this week, but this gets Parfitt off my field and Stef on. Got to be at least 50 points.

Adam · 21/04/2017 at 16:57
That should be a massive increase in points, I'd do it

Patch · 21/04/2017 at 13:08
Gut says Hanners, but I just had a look at the Crows' draw and… oh. oh my. I need a good think about this

FCAbel · 21/04/2017 at 16:17
Parker

Crowmagnon · 21/04/2017 at 16:43
Do not go Tex. He very rarely kicks as straight as he did last week.

Cpt Pugwash · 21/04/2017 at 20:25
How many trades left?

Optimistic Goat · 23/04/2017 at 00:05
Always positive. How can we be anything else when the gods are at play?

TBone · 21/04/2017 at 11:57
Bont

Wedge · 21/04/2017 at 12:35
Sloane. Stand alone solid gold mid premo in the team playing the best footy.

Josh · 21/04/2017 at 12:55
Sloane and 200 k in the bank is winning

Patch · 21/04/2017 at 13:12
I'd go Sloane myself

Andrew · 21/04/2017 at 13:02
With the exception of Riewoldt

Patch · 21/04/2017 at 13:14
Yeo had similar patches last year where he hit 110 averages and then went at 80 for the rest of the year. I'm not sold and would try and get NRoo in, but I'm also unsure who the best forwards will be. I'm holding off and upgrading elsewhere until things settle down down there

Wal · 21/04/2017 at 14:27
I know he looks like he will finally produce some consistency but I just can't have him, burn man extraordinaire

Optimistic Goat · 23/04/2017 at 00:08
If Yeo can string 10 weeks together and stay fit, then I'll pay the price. Super player but twice past burned.

Patch · 21/04/2017 at 13:14
Flick him if you don't have any other pressing issues

INPieman · 21/04/2017 at 13:15
27 last week. That's putrid. He's not going to be a top 40 Mid. Get rid of him. I'd go Sloane

Rabbits16 · 22/04/2017 at 09:47
he got injured or concussed i think… anyway i flicked him for clayton oliver and also flicked treloar for ELliot Yeo :/ bottle of wine decisions….. seems my sober supercoach decision making isnt working anyways so what the hell

SF4 · 21/04/2017 at 13:12
JOM has got to go.

Patch · 21/04/2017 at 13:15
Can see value in holding Taranto, but would flick Jaeger

Wal · 21/04/2017 at 14:24
Hold TT, trade JOM

Muzza · 21/04/2017 at 15:41
I am holding both because I have a reasonable team on field but with only a couple of emergencies.
If JOM and or Taranto miss round 6 then then he/they are out.
Remember the importance of holding as many trades until the byes. No panic trades!

Kev · 21/04/2017 at 13:09
Taranto to Macrae. Rough should be right to at least hold his price a bit longer.

Patch · 21/04/2017 at 13:15
The first option for mine

Wal · 21/04/2017 at 14:26
And what exactly is a 'super premo'?

INPieman · 21/04/2017 at 13:11
Didn't he score 164 not long ago? Against the Blues he might do it again

micdidjeri · 21/04/2017 at 13:16
Robbie Gray will have 52 and kick 17. Hold.

Patch · 21/04/2017 at 13:17
Definite role change there Isaidc so I wouldn't have a problem with you wanting to flick him. He might go large occasionally but long term going to Zerrett is a much better decision

isaidc · 21/04/2017 at 13:21
yep role change. guess im hoping for a midfielder injury or something this week for port, so he moves back to where he dominates. Got backline issues this week (stewart starting). decisions!

Wedge · 21/04/2017 at 14:04
I'm thinking when SPP gets dropped he might get more midfield time.

Kev · 21/04/2017 at 13:08
Bont. Rocky never far from an injury. Murphy in a purple patch. Well done if you started him, but don't jump on now

Super_Freak · 21/04/2017 at 13:47
Rocky hasn't really had injury problems for a long time. Most recent absences were due to broken ribs, and being cleaned up by May. Looks good this year, as do Bont and Murphy.

SF4 · 21/04/2017 at 13:10
Bont

Patch · 21/04/2017 at 13:21
Would pick one of the first two – I can't really split them to be honest. Flip a coin? Get your cat to walk over your keyboard and if R or B come up first pick that? Consult a ouiji board?

Mystic Mac · 21/04/2017 at 13:28
Buddy into Danger

SF4 · 21/04/2017 at 14:12
Bont into Danger.

Derek · 21/04/2017 at 14:21
I tricked the SC Gods last week.
The previous two weeks i had Eddy (last min IN) and Gawn as my C's.
I announced to the Gods that i would have Dangerfield last week………………… but at the last seconds before the last game did a switcharoo to Selwood….. the Gods didn't see that one and allowed danger to serve up a nice brown turd. haha to you SC Gods.

Patch · 21/04/2017 at 14:26
I'm struggling due to being overseas: I might have to go Kade Simpson as my VC option. However, I've brought Taylor Walker in after Lek wrote him up yesterday and seeing their draw, so he'll probably get it.
C at this stage is Selwood, but could be Riewoldt

Wal · 21/04/2017 at 14:35
Dollhouse into Danger/Pendles

Kyle · 21/04/2017 at 16:15
Rocky VC and danger C.

INPieman · 21/04/2017 at 13:29
I'm praying with ya Mystic. I don't like this new role

Mystic Mac · 21/04/2017 at 13:34
Agreed Pieman 🙁

Steeeve · 21/04/2017 at 13:34
Hoping he can stay cheap until his bye personally

Patch · 21/04/2017 at 14:43
He might have to be my travelling VC! Unless I give it to Pickett!

Youngy · 21/04/2017 at 15:12
JJK? really?

Tommo09 · 21/04/2017 at 15:20
It's very risky but hopefully it pays off
He's playing Hawthorn and the reigning Coleman medallist
Tom Hawkins got about 110 last week and I expect JJK to beat that

Kyle · 21/04/2017 at 18:20
JJK scored an 84 and 103 against the hawks last year. And the eagles are always pretty ordinary playing at the MCG. Would definately advise elsewhere for the C option based on the past.
Im an owner of JJK aswell so i hope he proves me wrong. Just dont like his chances.

Tommo09 · 22/04/2017 at 08:18
Yeah that's true
I thought they were playing in Perth for some reason
I might change it as Eagles can't travel but should beat hawks though

Kyle · 21/04/2017 at 18:13
If it was the VC onto JJK i would say thats a great choice. But throwing the C onto him seem like a massive risk. Do you have any other options?

INPieman · 21/04/2017 at 13:51
My favourite friend from Tinder. I'd go with the Adams choice. DPP seems to be extra handy this year

RufHead&SheSwallows · 21/04/2017 at 14:30
Hahaha thanks mate. Cheers!

Patch · 21/04/2017 at 14:41
I had this conundrum earlier in the week before everyone was dropped and I had to change plans. I struggled to split them and was going Stef for team balance reasons – if you're going Adams for balance, fire away!

TBone · 21/04/2017 at 15:02
1 no doubt mate!

Patch · 21/04/2017 at 15:27
#1 for mine

Kyle · 21/04/2017 at 16:17
#1 looks the best option definately mate

Jager Bombs · 21/04/2017 at 17:33
Cheers fellas thats what my gut is saying.

Patch · 21/04/2017 at 14:43
McVeigh and a few mids coming back into Sydney worry me slightly – he should still go top 8 but personally I'd wait another few weeks on him just in case and go Howe.

INPieman · 21/04/2017 at 14:17
Have noticed the same thing Trig. You really need someone from the first 4 games. The rookies that have disappeared (so far) all have early games over a damn 5 day round! Sucks

Steve · 21/04/2017 at 16:44
When do we know if dusty is playing, could be the loop,Fyfe into dusty

Finnius123 · 21/04/2017 at 13:52
Tex walker* can't go Macrae as already have too many in the Rd 11 bye

krups · 21/04/2017 at 14:03
Tex

Patch · 21/04/2017 at 14:36
I jumped on the Tex train this morning

Finnius123 · 21/04/2017 at 14:39
Yeah I'm feeling it patch. With both yours and Lekdogs gurlfriends endorsement I'm gonna pull the trigger. His drawer is too good to ignore – and he has been killing it of late

SF4 · 21/04/2017 at 14:10
Im having another look on fisher before I bring him in.

Rivo · 21/04/2017 at 14:31
So the only other viable play is Hanners & Balic (injured/rested/Lyoned). Holding is going to be painful…

Patch · 21/04/2017 at 14:37
Wouldn't go Higgins to Tex. Higgins still a chance at top 8, when he gets more of a run through the midfield he'll hit the ton pretty easily. Would hold and focus on upgrading and downgrading rookies. We've made our bed, now we need to lie in it

Patch · 21/04/2017 at 14:28
This is beautiful stuff, Derek. Love your work mate!

INPieman · 21/04/2017 at 14:30
Surely some of those rookies come back for another crack shortly. But I agree some value & compromise will be needed. It always is

The Ranger · 21/04/2017 at 15:53
Hope you're right Pieman but I'm worried about Newman, really surprised he went out.
You'd think with McVeigh still to come he might struggle to get back in.

Derek · 21/04/2017 at 16:57
i was very surprised. he has a really nice left foot. with rampe missing he looked a good replacment.

RickeyRat · 21/04/2017 at 14:37
I agree try and be patient hoping Rocky,sloane,Martin and Pendles along with Bontempelli come down under 600k ,they are going to finish in the top 8 mids at the end imo.
Does anyone think Treloar or Titch will finish as a top 8 mid i have both and have my doubts?
Is trading Roughie for ANB a solid move or go up to Toby Greene better?

Wal · 21/04/2017 at 14:48
Treloar still a good chance imo but I highly doubt Titch will be, if upgrading Rough I would be looking for allot better than ANB or Greene

Derek · 21/04/2017 at 15:05
will need to extend the watchlist to players who might not be in the first team picked, but their value might just be too good to resist. IE Wingard after his Round 9 bye

Rambos_Radish · 21/04/2017 at 14:41
Significant!

Muzza · 21/04/2017 at 15:48
Good stuff Derek. I tend to take more notice of you and Pieman than others.
Incidentally, what has happened to Sarah this year. Last year she also wrote some sense. Maybe she is sick of the rants of idiots or perhaps she is keeping SC matters close to her chest?
Anyway, I hope she is well.

Derek · 21/04/2017 at 16:59
I didn't see much of sarah last year, she was around a fair bit the season before. didn't see her after jock went off the air

INPieman · 21/04/2017 at 14:33
Goodness. The gods must have really gone to town on you

Cogla13 · 22/04/2017 at 09:12
So you have locked in Picketts huge 28!

Patch · 21/04/2017 at 14:28
Sitting tight not a bad move at all mate! Contemplating the same thing, but would have to play Pickett onfield, which I'm not keen on. Like conserving trades, especially with that side!

INPieman · 21/04/2017 at 14:39
Not sure how big your spuds are & you don't seem terribly impacted with round 9 bye players. But there's a bloke from Gold Coast called Brayden Fiorini (I'd take him over Matera every day of the week). On the bubble with a -9 BE & 2 game Av of 86. Nets you about 50K from JOM & some cash gen. He scored 97 last week & no one has noticed him

Stupid Coach · 22/04/2017 at 05:29
Thanks Patch and INPieman (loved your early post particularly about JOM which still has me in stitches). Fiorini is tempting and is averaging 86. Only query is JS as I note he only played two games last season and didn't appear again. Thankfully have Pickett on the pine and Parfitt and PP on the field so I could wait til next week for other rookies that might be on the bubble.

TheGreatBozza · 22/04/2017 at 07:03
He did his MCL last year so was only available towards the end of the year. The kid is a ball magnet

Stupid Coach · 22/04/2017 at 09:39
Thanks for the info Great Bozza. Very tempted to bring him in but already have Parfitt in M8 and Pickett on the pine with an E. Is there a way I can swap Pickett (DPP) with Hannan (non DPP) and still get him in for JOM or should I just leave it and do two trades (one downgrade and one upgrade) next week.

Patch · 21/04/2017 at 14:25
Macrae will be a top 8 forward, who knows with Hannebery. Lock Mac in for mine

Cliffy · 21/04/2017 at 14:29
Ditto for mine.

Wal · 21/04/2017 at 14:41
Don't trade in pre-bubble rookies is your answer

Wal · 21/04/2017 at 14:42
I'd wait and get another look at Fischer probably but it's tough as I would be wanting JOM out

Thomas · 21/04/2017 at 16:13
I could do option 1? Bringing in Williamson who is on the bubble? Gives me 248k to paint the fence next week

Seeker · 21/04/2017 at 17:04
It's an ok-to-good move because JOM has gotta go. Plus you can paint the fence next week with more cash and probably more fallen promo options and Fisher, Long, Cox & Balic should all be on the bubble next week too. I'm considering a similar trade with Taranto to Williamson via Hibberd DPP. TT probably won't walk straight back into the GWS line up. Just fear Williamson's JS past tonight's game

Wal · 21/04/2017 at 14:43
How confident can you be with a hip complaint that's short on detail? Hold fire

Wal · 21/04/2017 at 15:47
You know Balic isn't playing right?

Wal · 21/04/2017 at 14:49
You missed the Murphy boat imo, look elsewhere

INPieman · 21/04/2017 at 14:51
Personally I can't see Murphy keeping this up. I think it's too late to jump on him now

Derek · 21/04/2017 at 17:00
2017 version of AHall

Patch · 21/04/2017 at 15:27
Would go Hannan out – Barrett surely back next week if he kills the NEAFL

Kyle · 21/04/2017 at 16:23
Rocky and macrae for mine mate.

Lenny · 21/04/2017 at 16:40
Thanks Kyle

DO IT · 21/04/2017 at 15:07

Youngy · 21/04/2017 at 15:14
I hate every bit of the Roughy to Matera trade that people are suggesting.

Patch · 21/04/2017 at 15:15
As I said above, I'm not sold on Matera, even as a cash generator. I won't stop you, but against the Crows this week he'll be lucky to have 10 touches in the forward line

Youngy · 21/04/2017 at 15:14
I'd wait

Patch · 21/04/2017 at 15:26
Would probably wait if you can

The Coach · 21/04/2017 at 16:02
Fisher this week? #UnpopularOpinion

Jono · 21/04/2017 at 15:09
Hold

Patch · 21/04/2017 at 15:14
Agree with Jono, hold.

Patch · 21/04/2017 at 15:14
if McLuggage was 117k, we'd lock him in. At 200k, he's just a bit too much to make significant coin. Pass.

Derek · 21/04/2017 at 15:18
I started the year with McGrath (instead of Otten… Oh Well). I can see McCluggage being like Mcgrath, a few 60's and then a 97.
i think his JS is very good.

redgumwon · 21/04/2017 at 15:42
Maybe a Berry might be the cheaper option at $140k and on the bubble with DDP mid/fwd?

Derek · 21/04/2017 at 16:56
already got him

Wal · 21/04/2017 at 15:46
Pendles

Kev · 21/04/2017 at 15:48
Good problem to have! Bont, Sloane, Pendles, Rocky all good options but you'll be paying absolute premium for them.
Fyfe is still value. As is Zerrett. Wines has started well

RickeyRat · 21/04/2017 at 15:56
Sloane or Rockliff

Dnoyes · 21/04/2017 at 16:03
Hannebery. In a year where we are strapped for cash, I think you need to pick up premiums on the discount.

Sauce · 21/04/2017 at 16:28
Rocky

LoganJosh7 · 21/04/2017 at 16:56
Sloane or fyfe

Derek · 21/04/2017 at 17:02
money should be a problem. don't over spend just because you have some cash in your pocket now.
if you didn't start with Fyfe, i would look at him

Kev · 21/04/2017 at 15:43
Buddy

Derek · 21/04/2017 at 17:03
Buddy looked sore last week. Is he ok?

Wal · 21/04/2017 at 15:45
Buddy out of those 2

LoganJosh7 · 21/04/2017 at 16:56
No

Spakka · 21/04/2017 at 19:08
Lol.I'm punting higgins this week, can't believe anyone would be going to him. Can't believe i stayed with him, albeit his first 2 weeks were good but now he's dished up two steamers its go time! Mandelbaum! Mandelbaum!

Kev · 21/04/2017 at 15:43
Yes, in the forward line. In the mids he and Titch will average similar

Derek · 21/04/2017 at 17:03
yes and no

Kyle · 21/04/2017 at 18:06
Macrae is a keeper but not worth moving titch for

Wal · 21/04/2017 at 15:45
Don't trade in pre-bubble rookies

Sauce · 21/04/2017 at 16:26
Agreed

LoganJosh7 · 21/04/2017 at 16:55
Wait a week and go omeara to fisher if he's scores 55+

Darcy Kelly · 21/04/2017 at 16:32
I like that trade

LoganJosh7 · 21/04/2017 at 16:54
Yeah not too bad. I'm gonna hold tanto and wait a week on fisher but you're right about omeara

Kyle · 21/04/2017 at 18:05
Im a lynch owner and i wouldnt expect much from him this week. Up against the crows i really dont expect much from from GC and lynch wont get many chances at goal i think. Would wait a week if you plan on bringing him in.

hedski · 21/04/2017 at 18:34
After his bye would be better

Derek · 21/04/2017 at 17:04
i have the same happening. oh my!

Moustachio · 21/04/2017 at 17:45
SPS may be a late out with soreness apparently.

Captain Risky · 21/04/2017 at 16:02
Fisher is MID..
it looks like J Kennedy-Harris is coming in at expense on Hannan.

tom · 21/04/2017 at 16:13
I can swing Parfitt/Pickett to the middle when I trade Hannan but I have no way of covering Hannan with DPP.

BrownlowBoy · 21/04/2017 at 16:38
It does look as if JKH will come in for Hannan. I'm not sure if you should cop a 0 or go early on Fisher.

FCAbel · 21/04/2017 at 16:40
Go early mate

tom · 21/04/2017 at 18:04
Thanks Brownlow and Abel, Pieman or Derek what are your thoughts?

FCAbel · 21/04/2017 at 18:04
Wombat have you any news on Nemo? My understanding is he was the unsung hero in the team powell-pepper starred in. He's but a little fella but a very talented mid. Loves a tackle. Loves a goal. His js is better than many cows Imo. Always a massive risk as performance and coaches plans are behind such. Is bus just rotating them all through? My advice would be to buy on the bubble, unless you're playing a donut. In this case he may be the best option.

Johnno · 21/04/2017 at 16:23
That's what I'm doing. Was going to do it before the rookie carnage and no reason not to now.

Sauce · 21/04/2017 at 16:25
I'd trade to Williamson

red5 · 21/04/2017 at 16:40
Thanks guys

Derek · 21/04/2017 at 17:07
everyone is gun-shy of rookies now, after Newman, barrett, TT, eddy etc all getting chop after a few games…….. everyone except Otten!!!!

Sauce · 21/04/2017 at 16:33
I'd go roughy down to a rookie such as butler Houston of even WHE and Simpson for premo

Saintsational · 21/04/2017 at 16:36
Missed the boat on Butler, Houston and WHE. Hold Simpson he will bounce back and hold roughead for another week or so. Shouldnt lose much/any value. Wait new rookies to emerge to downgrade to

Cold_Case · 21/04/2017 at 16:36
Why are you trading out Simpson?

Derek · 21/04/2017 at 17:10
he must mean Sam Simpson from Geelong

SF4 · 21/04/2017 at 17:29
Don't trade simmo

FCAbel · 21/04/2017 at 16:41
Parker for me

LoganJosh7 · 21/04/2017 at 16:52
Hanners

Seeker · 21/04/2017 at 17:22
Parker I think

Wal · 21/04/2017 at 16:40
I'd get rid of JOM and Rough as the priority

FCAbel · 21/04/2017 at 16:42
Go for it.

INPieman · 21/04/2017 at 17:07
Hampton has a BE of 6. I wouldn't make that trade. But I like the Fiorini lad. If TT heads to NEAFL that might be a good trade

Cogla13 · 23/04/2017 at 12:30
Hindsight is a wonderful thing. Fiorini really stank it up.

Cold_Case · 21/04/2017 at 16:39
Need to know who your rookies and what premiums you have first

SF4 · 21/04/2017 at 17:26
Watch Fisher this week and then we can make a call.

Wal · 21/04/2017 at 16:40
Depends on who you would trade him to

Sauce · 21/04/2017 at 16:47
Hold for this week

Youngy · 21/04/2017 at 16:53
Hold

Kyle · 21/04/2017 at 17:58
May go big on the big stage of anzac day. Id give him 1 more week mate

SF4 · 21/04/2017 at 17:25
you will only end up trading out GHS. + GHS hasn't shown much really.

George · 21/04/2017 at 18:15
Good point, However keen to get rid of O"Meara and no real options presenting

Sauce · 21/04/2017 at 16:46
I'd go Grundy instead of step but seems like a good idea

SF4 · 21/04/2017 at 17:24
Nope don't trade Treloar

Sauce · 21/04/2017 at 16:45
No

Youngy · 21/04/2017 at 16:53
Agreed Bad trade

Daniel Z · 22/04/2017 at 04:02
Like trying to get an angry mob of bees off your balls by hitting them with a hammer.

Imgonnalose · 21/04/2017 at 16:59
Rocky, in past seasons Sloane has been so inconsistent

relton · 21/04/2017 at 17:19
could say the exact same about rocky imgonnalose

Locked and Loaded · 21/04/2017 at 17:33
Sloane inconsistent!?? You serious???

RickeyRat · 21/04/2017 at 18:11
Not sure why you would class Sloane incosistent have been playing SC for years and he's a gun plus his ceiling makes him C option most weeks.

Wedge · 22/04/2017 at 07:50
Sloane since 2012 has only missed 9 games and every year his average has been above 105. Not inconsistent.

SF4 · 21/04/2017 at 17:23
but will Williamson outscore stewart?
Stewart seems ok for a 50.

SF4 · 21/04/2017 at 17:22
Lecras has gotta go.

CashCows · 21/04/2017 at 18:13
Agree.. So in lines of preference
Yeo, Macrae, (DPP's)
Nroo, Tex, JJK Bud (Fwds that may go missing or break (Nroo)
(ANB or Matera) for Cash

Leeds17 · 21/04/2017 at 18:46
Maybe too crazy and out there but Heeney? looks like conservatively you are going to have to bring in 4 forwards this over the season 3 upgrades and allowing for a injury trade think you are going to have to bring in a cheap one with the lack of cash gen around

Eskimo · 21/04/2017 at 17:16
I'd trade Smith to make money. So hard to make money. I'm not getting him however since I picked up newman and fox last week. Damn It!

Cogla13 · 22/04/2017 at 11:11
Gee, unlucky Eskimo Joe.

SF4 · 21/04/2017 at 17:20
Not a bad idea.

Joshua · 21/04/2017 at 18:14
I'm in same situation, using smith for loophole this week. Vc danger into Pendlebury. Will look at EVW in a few weeks or other rookies that pop up, not sold on Williamsons job security.

Steeeve · 21/04/2017 at 17:27
Taranto out for Balic (if you can afford to have him on the pine) and Roughead up to Buddy. Or if you can afford it Macrae/Dahl/Roo.
Trade out Marley next week.

TheLoneRanger · 21/04/2017 at 17:47
Fisher

Kev · 21/04/2017 at 17:40
I understand your thinking Mickey, but the issue I see with that is if/when midpricers chuck in a stinker (which they've been known to do…) their cash gen completely dries up, forcing you into another trade to get a premium. Just hold this week if you can cover JOM

Mickey P · 21/04/2017 at 17:53
Fair call Kev, just trying to think of ways to get cash – frustrating!
Have Powell Pepper on bench for JOM, so will put the E on and see how he goes.
Also have Houston as cover for Taranto up front, so will keep the trades I think – 28 trades left and sitting 1,200th but falling quickly

finnigin · 21/04/2017 at 18:57
im jumpin on him , prepared to take the gamble, upside outways out the down

finnigin · 21/04/2017 at 18:58
next one will be hibbert from melb in a couple of weeks

Kiwizz · 21/04/2017 at 17:26
To be clear the main question is 2 trades to get Mcrae or just the one for Yeo.

Kev · 21/04/2017 at 17:34
26 trades or more go with Macrae. Otherwise Yeo

Kiwizz · 21/04/2017 at 17:36
i have exactly 26 trades left…

Wal · 21/04/2017 at 18:51
I wouldn't

eskimo · 21/04/2017 at 18:45
I'd upgrade Ainsworth to Matera for the money or a chance he turns out good. Otherwise sit tight with the rest. Another rookie will turn up soon.I think could get 100k from matera and maybe a score or two. But he has no history to speak of, trouble is you have too many rookies in your forward line. I have roughy and steele but I'm happy with them cos they only need one good score to help me step up to someone more consistent.

Mickey P · 21/04/2017 at 17:54
I hear you Mark, I have TT (forward) and JOM as well. Thinking of holding this week with SPP as cover for JOM and Houston for TT up front …. fingers crossed they both score well against Blues tonight, if not …. will review trades tomorrow

Mark closey · 21/04/2017 at 18:01
sounds like the idea

Mickey P · 21/04/2017 at 18:04
Yeo a definite possibility, but check out the numbers I posted below. Maybe history means nothing, but maybe it does?

red5 · 21/04/2017 at 18:37
Murph

Winter · 21/04/2017 at 18:49
Obviously if that was an option I would've said…..

Kev · 21/04/2017 at 18:50
Dahl. In great touch

Flubber · 21/04/2017 at 18:59
dahl

Wal · 21/04/2017 at 19:08
Dollhouse

Flubber · 21/04/2017 at 18:58
I'm going Dahl

Leeds17 · 21/04/2017 at 18:52
Devils advocate Yeo has had 4 career games at 25 disposals or more in his 84 games pre-2017, so far 2017 he's had 3 of 4 games 25+ disposals.

Joshua · 21/04/2017 at 18:20
Saturday

RickeyRat · 23/04/2017 at 13:41
Off load Pickett he's arguably the worst rookie i have ever seen bring in Parsons in two weeks or Balic if he gets back in from injury,hannan also has to go .

Regan · 21/04/2017 at 18:48
Option 2 will give you points and money

HB prince · 21/04/2017 at 18:57
But option 3 gets rid of Roughie and saves a trade?

jacob · 21/04/2017 at 18:23
i also have taranto..

scott · 21/04/2017 at 18:25
thats what im contemplating now depends if your going for overall rank. It could be a mistake or it could pay off massively most people will be playing it safe

jacob · 21/04/2017 at 18:26
i have already traded mills to JPK this week, and could trade WHE to hannebery.. substituting houston on field for WHE?

scott · 21/04/2017 at 18:32
also hard with everyone picking up the same discounted premos hard to make ground. Im starting to look at players such as mundy only 547k. lowest score 92 only 700 ownership

Jacob · 21/04/2017 at 18:53
Ross the boss is playing Fyfe and Mundy interchangeably forward/mid the past couple of weeks which takes my eyes off having both in my side.. Mundy gonna spend more time forward, only scored well last week due to 4 goals which won't happen, can't see him averaging more than 105

scott · 21/04/2017 at 18:59
yea im not going mundy just using him as an example. another is sheil who is playing well but not sure if he will finish top 10. But also need to get away from following the trend

scott · 21/04/2017 at 19:02
always coast along finish in top 1k but no prizes for that

Regan · 21/04/2017 at 18:46
I probably wouldn't go with Mcrae

hedski · 21/04/2017 at 18:42
Too many Port rooks already with their bye!!!
Have SPP, Houston and Eddy already, need to cull them in a couple of weeks, he'd have to do well to bring him in.
Admittedly Eddy's done sweet FA so far.

Lazza · 21/04/2017 at 20:16
If you see Beams as a keeper then definite yes.

hedski · 21/04/2017 at 18:39
Your not seriously going SPP to Parfitt???

Krazee-Eyez Killa · 21/04/2017 at 18:44
living on the edge

INPieman · 21/04/2017 at 18:46
I'd suggest retaining anyone with a heartbeat right now

Krazee-Eyez Killa · 21/04/2017 at 18:47
i've already changed my mind on the SPP trade. hedski got me thinking. i'm gonna stick with Taranto to Williamson though

TRIGGER HAPPY · 21/04/2017 at 18:50
With 28 in the kit bag and that ranking must have got every other selection on field bang on.
Do u need to do both?
Maybe keep SPP and just do first trade.
SPP only has a be of 41 which he should get easily tonight
Next week if u still want to trade SPP to Fisher if the king goes alright tonight.
Won't have lost much by waiting on SPP

Krazee-Eyez Killa · 21/04/2017 at 18:56
yeah I think I actually did okay initially. wish i had paid attention when the cash cows were ripe. i literally just forgot haha
i'll keep SPP for now. moving Taranto onto Williams in DEF brings me up to around 145k with 27 trades so i'm going to stick with that. non playing rookies are a concern though

Flubber · 21/04/2017 at 18:51
SPP to Parfitt is a waste of a trade

INPieman · 21/04/2017 at 18:48
Man what a player Peter Matera was. But I'm not sure the young fella is anything like him

TRIGGER HAPPY · 21/04/2017 at 18:55
Did play off the wing 2nd half last week and even attended a few Centre bounces scoring 6 clearances.

hedski · 21/04/2017 at 19:31
Have a feeling Matera is the biggest trap going.

Russty_ · 21/04/2017 at 23:34
Big gamble that one, could end up being a must trade spud in 3 weeks. on the upside, you'll have made some cash on him.

joe444 · 22/04/2017 at 02:36
His uncles was not a slow starter … was a matchwinner before he'd played his tenth game.

INPieman · 21/04/2017 at 18:49
Hartlett or Hartless?

hedski · 21/04/2017 at 19:32
Definitely not Hardarse.

tophawk · 21/04/2017 at 19:34
Hamish Harlot……..bloody useless prick. Second time in 4 rounds he is a late out. Coaches who have him will be suicidal. UNLUCKY!!

Russty_ · 21/04/2017 at 23:53
Yeah but who would have him?…seriously, the guy is more of a yoyo than yeo yeo.

Tim · 21/04/2017 at 19:20
Tex should dominate over next 5-6 weeks

hedski · 21/04/2017 at 19:33
I've traded Roughy but if I had JOM I'd slash him first.

Derek · 21/04/2017 at 20:27
Roughie is playing….. JOM is not playing

hedski · 21/04/2017 at 20:38
Exactly

Danners · 21/04/2017 at 21:58
If you wanted to take a big punt and nothing to lose

INPieman · 21/04/2017 at 19:08
Maybe. Has a nice draw coming up

Flubber · 21/04/2017 at 19:03
Hold Mitchell

INPieman · 21/04/2017 at 19:06
No

davo · 21/04/2017 at 19:08
up to you but those trades just don't look good

INPieman · 21/04/2017 at 19:05
Houston vs the Blues

Lazza · 21/04/2017 at 20:19
Both

davo · 21/04/2017 at 19:09
no

tophawk · 21/04/2017 at 19:16
Depends on how desperate you are to raise cash to use your second trade to trade up to a premo. If this is not the case, I would not bother. Marchbank has a BE of 47 and will likely generate some more cash. If you really want Williamson for cash generation, trade out another missing rookie in your team. Should be plenty to choose from this week! Cheers

Russty_ · 21/04/2017 at 23:49
Neither of them are safe, and it's impossible to call at this stage, both could still end up mega-spuds.

joe444 · 22/04/2017 at 02:28
Neither.

The BONT · 22/04/2017 at 07:44
If you had to pick it would be Walker his got a nice fixture and Adielade are always getting the ball up foward

Russty_ · 22/04/2017 at 00:38
Yeah we all stuff, fo real, massiv

scott · 21/04/2017 at 19:27
or parker? If Sydney are going to make the 8 parker and hanners are gonna have to start producing

hedski · 21/04/2017 at 19:35
Parker

Danners · 21/04/2017 at 21:59
Hannebery, was a top 10 player the last couple of seasons

hedski · 21/04/2017 at 19:35
Good luck in Piemans cash league this week Neil (hope I beat ya)

neil Demons Delight · 21/04/2017 at 21:01
yeah will be close Sticking to the plan but its difficult Think I am 3 short of a good team Rocky A DAMS and Murphy cheers mate

hedski · 21/04/2017 at 21:24
Plans look friggin hard to stick to this year, flying by the seat of my pants mate, let's make it up as we go.
Rocky and Adams will come in if they don't fall to pieces, Smurph…NO.

neil Demons Delight · 21/04/2017 at 21:32
agree smurth another waite

Derek · 21/04/2017 at 23:06
Not what you hoped for

Russty_ · 22/04/2017 at 00:05
Better off hanging onto Roughy than going with Tex, never been a consistent SC scorer.

neil Demons Delight · 21/04/2017 at 21:04
Got a history of hammies blistering pace wont help his cause with them

neil Demons Delight · 21/04/2017 at 21:12
why the V C on Doc hedski wish I had him though bit pricey

hedski · 21/04/2017 at 21:27
Plenty of ball down back for him, not scoring as well as i'd like, Simmos looking good to pick up soon tho.

neil Demons Delight · 21/04/2017 at 21:36
just looked at him funny enough heds 462 inviting means WHE goes but like him a lot just not his or coaches game

Captain Risky · 21/04/2017 at 21:11
Gotta be happy with the first half! 48 if you don't mind.
Plenty of opportunities for a Cartlon defender this year .

Northernsoul74 · 21/04/2017 at 21:45
Couldn't understand why people were so into Balic and not him. Glad I brought him in.

Derek · 21/04/2017 at 23:04
Because he might not play next week

Choppers · 21/04/2017 at 23:25
And Newman is not playing this week either, Derek. So we're all between a rock and a hard place……go figure

Derek · 21/04/2017 at 23:43
Everyone could see Him being another Newman or Eddy or Barrett or Taranto or Preuss or Hibberd….,,,,,,

red5 · 21/04/2017 at 23:52
So glad l traded him for hibberd
He'll be the difference for me this week

hedski · 22/04/2017 at 00:47
Good move red, if I had Hibbo/Smith would of done the same.
Went early on Fisher, hope he's named next week, looked good for a skinny little prick

Lazza · 21/04/2017 at 21:49
Houston heading for a 75+ … not too bad for a rookie.. and above his projected score .. looking at a 32k+ increase.

hedski · 21/04/2017 at 22:57
Houston is a top 5 rookie pick so far, gun.

Lazza · 21/04/2017 at 21:04
So you are happy with 34 pts at half time … low expectations…

Lazza · 21/04/2017 at 21:51
Whoops… sorry lamme … beer goggles …

tophawk · 21/04/2017 at 21:53
Looks like the Marc Murphy bubble is ready to burst!

Derek · 21/04/2017 at 23:01
I doubt anyone would have bought in SMurphy this week. Everyone would have realised they had missed the boat and that a poor score wasn't far away……..

Don Drumpf · 21/04/2017 at 23:06
Bullet dodged as well, TF!!

hedski · 21/04/2017 at 21:28
Agreed

Derek · 21/04/2017 at 22:58
Dixon looks dead….. again

neil Demons Delight · 21/04/2017 at 23:14
Williamson the opposite

joe444 · 22/04/2017 at 02:41
Rubbish. They'll downgrade him again soon (did you forget he is a rookie?) and have only picked him to play as a last-minute sub. He was dropped and a three goal game in the SANFL meant nothing. This 27yo is done until they are desperate.

Captain Risky · 21/04/2017 at 21:21
Congrats! I'll have a another beer for you to celebrate.
I think as few are a bit rookie gun shy at the moment, lots wouldn't have picked him.

hedski · 21/04/2017 at 21:29
Onya Holty, I'll glug a VB for the young fella.
(get him to barrack for the cats mate, blues meh). Ha ha.

neil Demons Delight · 21/04/2017 at 21:41
yeah congrats mate you got your priors right take no notice of Hedski a Demons membership is what the young fella needs whats his name cheers and good health to all

Derek · 21/04/2017 at 22:57
Nice mate.

Choppers · 21/04/2017 at 23:28
mate, you've got your priorities 100% correct. Footy doesn't come anywhere near family…trust me.

hedski · 22/04/2017 at 00:49
True Chops, but nice to have a laugh.

Top Gun · 22/04/2017 at 09:10
Congrats. Just remember you can't trade the new addition. Lol

neil Demons Delight · 21/04/2017 at 21:44
Lucky it would cost you another trade when he spuds

BrownlowBoy · 21/04/2017 at 22:10
Menadue 2.0

Youngy · 21/04/2017 at 22:10
Even worse than Vickery?

Steeeve · 21/04/2017 at 22:43
Never seen a bloke be so close to the ball and show such little interest in getting involved.

neil Demons Delight · 21/04/2017 at 22:44
might be useful as a loop like hibberd or as a doorstop cant play footy

Billioux · 21/04/2017 at 22:58
Relton Roberts

hedski · 21/04/2017 at 23:00
Problem is he'll get played every week so ya can't loop him and no cash to be made trading him.

Derek · 21/04/2017 at 23:11
He just needs ONE good score!!!!!

hedski · 21/04/2017 at 23:13
WHEN???

gator59 · 21/04/2017 at 23:18
Zac Dawson!!!!

Derek · 22/04/2017 at 08:40
Even Zac scored a SC tonne, I think in 2007…..

neil Demons Delight · 21/04/2017 at 23:19
couldn't possibly get a game on that Hibberd and Pickett dpp loops and useful kinda cuts Strd out cant have too many non players

Steeeve · 22/04/2017 at 09:00
The Menadue effect

hedski · 21/04/2017 at 23:13
Can ya loop?

SF4 · 22/04/2017 at 00:21
Same problem with EVW and Stewart and can't loop because Newman plays on Friday.

Russty_ · 22/04/2017 at 00:39
I thought Newman got dropped?, has that changed?

Moustachio · 22/04/2017 at 10:42
He meant that Newman can't be used to loop those players. Not Newman literally playing, just Sydney (he also meant Sat night!)

hedski · 22/04/2017 at 00:55
Yeah your fingered there SF4, old mate can loop Hampton and EVW with Newman tho.

Kyle · 21/04/2017 at 22:42
Lowest score if the two mate

Whitey · 21/04/2017 at 22:54
Cheers, need to decide between Houston and Butler then.

hedski · 21/04/2017 at 23:01
Mate take the E off Butler and take Houston score.

Derek · 21/04/2017 at 22:54
Nope

SF4 · 22/04/2017 at 00:20
Lowest

Kane · 22/04/2017 at 07:41
I did that last night with eddy on field and had houston and pickett on bench with emergency. I thought you git the highest dammmm. Missed out on like 40 odd points

Moustachio · 22/04/2017 at 10:06
Smith pumping out 0's

TheGreatBozza · 22/04/2017 at 12:30
Very true. But was worried about wasting a trade. Want to nail a bang on rookie

Hubba · 21/04/2017 at 22:58
Same problem here…. im going parfitt

Hubba · 21/04/2017 at 23:01
Worst case he gets a 40 and you miss out on 10 points only….decent chance of upside all the same

Northerner · 21/04/2017 at 23:06
Tough one. I think Parfitt is a 40pt to 60pt player, but he did post the one 99. Even money call for mine

neil Demons Delight · 21/04/2017 at 23:20
gone next week for fisher same style

Russty_ · 22/04/2017 at 00:03
He doesn't play ok if he doesn't deliver a decent score, Needs to go soon or his scoring potential will stagnate.

joe444 · 22/04/2017 at 02:27
He breathes like he's dying after every contest.

Derek · 22/04/2017 at 08:38
He worries about his hair far too much

Moustachio · 22/04/2017 at 10:05
Handball hero. Will never be in the same league as Danger.

Derek · 21/04/2017 at 23:09
He might be my first upgrade next week, should be close to bottom around $460k

hedski · 21/04/2017 at 23:15
Yep

Russty_ · 21/04/2017 at 23:42
Simmo always seems to get there in the end, I'll be looking to bring him in at some point, had him all last year and never regretted it.

Russty_ · 21/04/2017 at 23:41
Balic, if he's named, Fiorini could either be a revelation or a huge mistake, I don't know which yet.
O'Meara to Balic would enable you to go another spud to a premo…or you could go spud to upcoming rookie and have a huge bank in reserve.

Russty_ · 21/04/2017 at 23:38
May as well hold, and see what develops next week, and if you want to trade then, think about trading some non playing rookies, for some that can make some coin.

Billioux · 21/04/2017 at 23:36
Yep. Would have gone top 3 if he didnt a have small issue down Geelong way a month out from the draft

joe444 · 22/04/2017 at 02:30
Siow to put ball to foot.

Russty_ · 22/04/2017 at 00:02
Don't know cause was working up until an hour ago, but not unusual for those spuds to stuff something up, It's been unreliable and full of bugs for the last 3 years at least.

Russty_ · 21/04/2017 at 23:59
If in doubt, go with the one with the higher average..works for me.

hedski · 22/04/2017 at 00:59
Hampton higher ave, Stewart scored 1 measly point more last week?
Tough call. Hampton for me (I'm looping).

FetusDave · 22/04/2017 at 07:39
Pretty sure it picks the lower score

Kane · 22/04/2017 at 07:42
Why would it do that? Thats so stupid.. missed out on like 50 points then. At least i know now.

Moustachio · 22/04/2017 at 10:00
Coz this game is all about picking the winning horse. You don't get 2 bites of the cherry unless looping.

Top Gun · 22/04/2017 at 09:20
You always gets the lowest score. Next time only click the button on one emergency.

Don't Blush Baby · 22/04/2017 at 10:14
The BONT

Rivo · 22/04/2017 at 08:18
I am in a very similar position PD. However I am looking at Hanners & Balic. Not sold on Yeo. Oliver a good call too. My other thought is on Macrae & Balic. Can't see any other rookies worth the punt.

Top Gun · 22/04/2017 at 09:22
I thought Fisher has upside even though he didn't score massively last night.

PD09 · 22/04/2017 at 12:19
Already have hanners…

Derek · 22/04/2017 at 08:35
You need to be aiming for the ultra premiums. Too early for them, need them to fall in price, although Simpson looks good for next week.
I would seriously think about JOM to McCluggage this week.
He has a pretty good JS, the lad can really play and I wouldn't be surprised if this week he shows us what he can do. He is a bit more expensive, but this year you have to pay a bit extra for the class.
Think McCluggage will be like McGrath, start slow but will deliver.

Captain Risky · 22/04/2017 at 09:40
Cripps looks to be getting better, Hanners, Macrae are the types you need.
Fisher looks OK, Balic same if he comes back in. Johnson also looks good for PA last night.

Crowmagnon · 22/04/2017 at 09:37
No.

tophawk · 22/04/2017 at 09:04
Blacks stats above were from his game last week in the VFL.

INPieman · 22/04/2017 at 09:22
Not this week. Don't need another bloke with dodgy JS

Moustachio · 22/04/2017 at 09:58
Wait a few weeks

tophawk · 22/04/2017 at 10:03
Hehehehe. I knew that was coming. It was just a conversation starter that one. Black not coming in this week, but will be interesting to see how he performs tomorrow. Cheers

Derek · 22/04/2017 at 09:44
If you have Martin, why do you need Spencer?

Moustachio · 22/04/2017 at 09:56
Get Martin

tophawk · 22/04/2017 at 10:09
Forget Spencer mate. Look for cash on other lines. Grab S Martin and your ruck combo is rock solid, and your O'meara problem will be one less hassle to worry about. And Parfitt on the bench as a little cherry on top. Cheers

redherringfc · 22/04/2017 at 10:15
Thanks, points well made. Team looks a lot better now.

hedski · 22/04/2017 at 10:10
I think it will be either 5 or 6.30, not too sure.

tophawk · 22/04/2017 at 10:23
You have got to be friggin joking! What the F is wrong with the AFL. They obviously don't endorse Supercoach with the rolling lock out concept. Of course they dont, they push the inferior AFL Fantasy concept with the FULL lock out system at the start of the first match of the round. Mid round team announcements do not impact AFL fantasy EXCEPT if you have a guy like Dustin Martin in your Fantasy midfield and he is left out because of that little groin niggle. Fantasy players will cop a nice juicy globe in their midfield and there is sweet FA they can do about it. Well done AFL! Winners all around.

neil Demons Delight · 22/04/2017 at 13:33
can u bench martin with an E

Crow · 22/04/2017 at 11:59
Rockliff has the biggest ceiling and has been in great form, but any of those guys couldgo big. Up to you to pick which one.

HarryO · 22/04/2017 at 12:35
is tht is s.martin i'd give him a go. doggies dont have a genuine ruckman

tophawk · 22/04/2017 at 12:47
I am going Stefan Martin. But I dont have Rocky and the Bont. If I did have Rocky, I would probably give him the nod, just ahead of Martin.

Blaknight · 22/04/2017 at 13:55
I went Martin..

Stupid Coach · 22/04/2017 at 14:06
Same dilemma HarryO. Only option is Fiorini (GC). However, he is a mid price option and not a rookie so will only generate a small amount of cash. Upside is that he has a BE of -5 and averages 86 from his first two games.

neil Demons Delight · 22/04/2017 at 17:08
rage trading never works next week JOM and Roughy could ton up week both are capable.The only one who will play next week without tonning up is Pickett save

Blaknight · 22/04/2017 at 22:37
I traded both out this week, Wend Rockliff (104) and went early on Fisher (51). Just hope they dont drop Fisher next week so he can generate some great cash. Very happy with me choice so far.

Top Gun · 23/04/2017 at 09:08
Danger may be tagged by Ross who has done well all year as well as getting possessions. Will be interesting. Danger may still tear Saints a new one. I went Fyfe as captain this week.

Ben · 22/04/2017 at 19:10
Hold either way

RickeyRat · 23/04/2017 at 13:44
Believe someone called him incosisyent!!

Lazza · 22/04/2017 at 20:14
Hahahha hahhahaa

Russty_ · 22/04/2017 at 21:41
You're welcome mate, and I'm as happy as you are 🙂

Top Gun · 23/04/2017 at 09:09
Take the points

HarryO · 23/04/2017 at 11:20
take them mate. danger got pretty beat up last week. i expect him to only score 120 anyway

Cogla13 · 23/04/2017 at 12:38
And the Fiorini trade as well. Massive backfire on those trade ins. They were high risk so people can't really complain.

Russty_ · 24/04/2017 at 01:48
Oops 🙂

HowiePhucter · 24/04/2017 at 11:34
59 thats an offical burn Harry
