SuperCoach Panic Room: Round 15
You guys, it’s over!! No more byes. No more relying on crappy rookies (and James Sicily) to scrape together 18 players this week. This calls for a celebration.
Sub all your guns back on field and if you’ve done this trading thing correctly, you should be looking at a team of 19-22 premiums this week. Cash gen becomes an issue at this point of the year. There’s been a few exceptions, but squeezing out 150k from rookies has been a slow burn this year. This week is the perfect opportunity to do a double downgrade as we’ll have 3-4 rookies on the bubble. Griffin Logue is a must have this week, he may be 40k more than your entry level rook but with rock solid job security and a SuperCoach friendly intercept role, stick him at D6 with confidence.
Patch traded in Buddy last week and as result has jumped on a plane and left the Jock Reynolds Crew this week. Fozdaddy stepped up to the podcast plate in his absence and carved out a magnificent debut, which will make for some awkward selection issues when Patch finally makes his return (or has maxed out Lek’s credit card). Some of the mid-season draftees are impressing at lower level, get the lowdown with Barron in Around the Grounds. Damo sinks his teeth into 9 games worth of VC/C options, and your boi StattyMatty’s always brilliant cheat sheet is another must read.
The News
Jackson Hately is in, community!
But do we trade for him or not? By now Leon is not to be trusted, despite returns of 22 and 21 possessions in Hately’s two AFL games and carving it up at NEAFL level, Hately hasn’t got much of a look in. He could be the one to go when Whitfield returns in a few weeks. I wouldn’t trade a playing rook for him, even if they are maxed out cash wise. If you’re still holding onto dead wood like Bailey Scott (who is done for the year) or Will Hayes (out of favour) there’s no risk to the trade if he gets dropped again. It also depends on trades, if you’re running low hang onto them as they’ll be like gold when the season starts to draw to a close.
Sound the klaxons. Patrick Cripps is OUT. Reports are it’s a 1-2 week injury. Hold him for now but when you hear the ‘experts’ say you need trades for the end of the year, this is why. There’s three confirmed debuts over Friday and Saturday and four more on the maybe pile for Sunday. Nic Nat is BACK. Buddy is injured. and Richmond welcome back about a third of their best 22.
As expected, no Esava at the Cats, but Darcy Fort surprisingly lost his spot. Adelaide have made three forced changes. Bryce Gibbs is back in the good books and there’s a debut for forward rookie Ben Davis (FWD – 123.9k). Wayne Milera is among the outs along with Josh Jenkins and Cam Ellis-Yolmen.
Willie Rioli returns after suspensions alongside Nic Nat. Jarrod Cameron has kept his spot which is encouraging for his job security. Jack Petruccelle is injured and can be traded for anyone still holding on. The Hawks are debuting Oliver Hanrahan (FWD – 123.9k) in one of three changes, Jarryd Roughead will miss with injury. James Rowbottom is back again for the Swans for their match against the Suns. Tagger Ryan Clarke has lost his spot. The Suns get some experience back in the form of Pearce Hanley and Touk Miller. Port are finally dusting Willem Drew off the shelf but there’s still no Tom Rocklliff. Ruck Peter Ladhams will play his second game. Joel Garner has survived and is on the bubble this week. The Dogs are going in unchanged. Kyron Hayden (FWD/MID – 102.4k) will make his debut at North. This kid tackles A LOT, keep an eye on him. A rock bottom priced DPP swing is golden at this stage of the year. Collingwood have replaced the injured Jeremy Howe with Josh Daicos.
There’s a lot to unpack in the St Kilda v Richmond match on Sunday. Jono Marsh has been dropped for the Saints as has Noah Balta for the Tigers. Jack Higgins has also been sent back to the twos to find some touch. Jack Steele has been named and there’s a possible debut for Doulton Langlands (MID/FWD – 123.9k). Ex-blue Sam Rowe is also in line to make his club debut. Experience galore returns at the Tigers; Trent Cotchin, Shane Edwards, Ivan Soldo, Kane Lambert, Jayden Short, and David Astbury are back after various injuries and ailments. Shai Bolton gets another crack and cementing a small forward spot. Zac Bailey and Jarrod Berry are back for the Lions as they host the Dees at the Gabba, there’s also a possible debut for Corey Lyons (MID – 123.9k). The Dees have added Jordan Lewis, Michael Hibberd, and Brayden Preuss to their squad, Josh Wagner is their only confirmed out. In the final game of the week, I’ll say it again – Patrick Cripps is OUT. Liam Jones returns though and former Saint Hugh Goddard (DEF – 159.6k) may debut. Freo have recalled Cam McCarthy for the injured Jesse Hogan. Adam Cerra and Lachie Schultz are among the six new additions.
The House of Evil
These rookies come with a free frogurt! (that’s good)
These premiums come with Potassium Benzoate (that’s bad)
Can I go now? (Trade bait)
Smooth Kevy’s Lock of the Week
As I said in the intro, cash gen = bad. While there’s temptation to settle for a “good” rook like Duursma or Walsh at M8 to finish, having a reliable, and more importantly, cheap proven premium at this point in the season is gold. Look no further than Rory Sloane this week. He worked his way onto many never again lists last year, but it’s time to let go of that grudge. Averaging 108.6 from 13 games this year, he has 10 scores over 100, 5 of which have been over 120. His season low of 35 came from just 25% TOG as his night ended early courtesy of a hamstring injury. The best part is his price, at just 511k he is the second cheapest top 20 mid on average. Taking out that injury affected score, his average balloons to 114.8, making him the 7th top mid on average and 120k cheaper than the similarly averaged Luke Parker.
Hey Now, You’re a Draftstar
RUC
From a Draftstars perspective, we’ve got two of the worst fantasy ruckman going head-to-head tonight. I joked with Damo to just put a non playing 5k ruck here and load up elsewhere but I’ll try to unravel this. Tom Bellchambers (10.5k), somewhat counter intuitively, averages 83.5DS in losses this year, compared to 56DS in wins. If you think the Giants will smash the Bombers as I do, Belly is your man. If you’re not the superstitious type, they are only $500 apart, so you could just build the rest of your lineup and take whoever fits.
Please don’t put Shaun McKernon (8.9k) in your team.
DEF
Essendon have pulled Marty Gleeson ($6.2k) from nowhere to play his first game since 2017. He laid a few eggs that year but has a ceiling of 80-90 if he can get around 18-20 touches. Averaging 17 touches (12 kicks) and 6 marks in the VFL, he should be chalky value tonight. Dylan Clarke (MID – 9.9k) hasn’t hit the heights of his 109DS against Carlton, but is cheap enough to be in play considering his role. Zac Williams (11.8k) has a massive ceiling when he gets going, Heath Shaw (12.4k) is an interesting pivot off Williams and may go overlooked. Nick Haynes (11k) is the slightly cheaper alternative, if he’s allowed to be the +1 taking easy marks he’ll hit value easily.
MID
Dylan Clarke has kept his direct opponent to 76DS in his 3 games, but since the bye Essendon are conceding a massive 119.3 top the top 3 opposition mids, giving up huge games to Elliot Yeo (132DS) and Ricky Henderson (140DS). If you can avoid whoever Clarke tags there could be some massive scores on offer. A quick poll around the JR office wasn’t at all helpful, with Josh Kelly (17.1k), Tim Taranto (16.8k), and Stephen Coniglio (15.3k) all getting mentions. Although I suspect they were just trolling me because they are all awful people. I think he’ll go onto a wing and take either Kelly or Cogs, making Taranto and Jacob Hopper (13.4k) locks. It’s unlikely he’ll draw any attention and has shown he can hit 120DS.
FWD
If not for some wayward kicking JJK could have gone absolutely bananas last week. He kicked 3.5 from 8 marks and embarrassed Hurley at times. A bit of recency bias may put a few off Jeremy Cameron (12.8k) onto Darcy Parish but I really like him here to bounce back against the Dons. It means sacrificing a GWS midfield premium for him though, so if you’d rather be safe you’ll need value. Jeremy Finlayson (10.8k) and Harry Himmelberg (8.8k) carry a lower ceiling than Cameron but could stretch Essendon’s defence. Jayden Laverde (8.9k) has put together a solid month of footy. Josh Begley (7.2k) has been serviceable if you need a further salary saver.
So it’s Hind over Hayley then? Either option helps me get to Sloane this week.
*Hatley
Wouldn't expect Hind to nail 3 goals every week but he's the safer option. Steele 1-2 weeks away is probably the only threat to his JS. If you've already got a playing M9 and M10 then having Hately at M11 isn't the worst idea.
Taking hind over Hately. Lower price and Cameron can’t be trusted
Hey community would really appreciate some advice on my team. I've got 9 trades and $4k in the bank.
DEF: Sicily, Houli, Ryan, Stewart, Duursma, Hore (Naish, Answerth)
MID: Macrae, Cripps, Gaff, Sloane, M. Crouch, Fyfe, Jelly, Oliver
(Bewly, Scott, Clarke)
RUC: Gawn, Grundy (Bines)
FWD: Danger, Heeney, Kelly, Boak, Marshell, Gardner (Balta, Young)
Looking good, KSinny. F6 might be a problem this week so Duursma or Hore to Logue then Balta to Daniel / Walters / Dunkley
Yeah I was thinking the same. Hope you ran with a downgrade of bore and upgrade in the forward line
Hey guys, bringing in logue and Slone, trading out Dursma and either Answorth or Moore, which one? Or is a double downgrade the way to go. Will have 10 trades left after this week
Answerth
Answerth to logue and scott/Clarke to hately/hind
Will free you up some cash to upgrade balta to Daniels and possibly duursma next week
What do we think community.. 11 trades 88k
DEF: hurn sicily Ryan Williams Smith duursma (answerth naish)
MID: Cripps Fyfe Macrae Neale Treloar Oliver MCrouch Walsh ( clarke bewley setterfield)
RUCK: Gawn ROB (bines)
FWD: TKelly danger Dunkley Cameron heeney Marshall (gardener Burgess )
my last defender will be Whitfield I hope and last midfielder Sloane ROB to grundy when the times right still a very low BE so not rushing it.
Regarding this week I think logue is a must and hately im 50/50 on.. Before Hatelys selection I was walsh -> Sloane duursma/answerth -> logue
but the double down is tempting duursma -> logue and setters —> hately build the bank.. obviously the issue is Hatelys JS
All other suggestions are welcome of course.
I’d be planning out your upgrade targets and cash needed
Cash is very tight even the 30k difference of hind vs hately will come into play id bring in Sloane and logue this week
Flick Walsh and Answerth probably
Answerth -> hately
Duursma -> logue
Leaning toward the above but will just have to miss Sloane this week and reassess next round but still hopefully go walsh -> Sloane then
390k bank and 9 trades remaining
Looking at your team, I think you can skip one of the rookies this week. You can probably take a risk that who you currently have will provide enough cash for upgrades. I think you should go for Logue and Sloane.
I don’t see a need for you, with that team, to run the risk of trading in a player who you might never be put on field, who gets dropped and who you don’t end up cashing in.
Having said that, I’m going Hind and Hately this week, because I have 2 spuds in Scott and Hayes on my bench (and I got Logue last week)
thanks redherring they’re very good points. I think it’ll be a last second decision I’ll make at 7:19. Like you said I may not be able too cash in on hately anyway
Is it just me or has the site had a snazzy facelift?
Yeh it's looking good
Ok, that's good. Thought I'd had a bad crop of mushrooms.
Yeah I’m loving it. Looks the goods 🙂
Really not a fan of a black background…feels like a Cave, black writing on a white background is the only way to go in any Forum I reckon.
backline right now is Lloyd, Williams, Laird, Sicily, Hore, Logue (Answerth, Gardner), 13 trades and $1.5k in the bank , which trades to do out of these two:
Duursma to Hind, Schultz to Naish via Gardner. Leaves me with $288k and 11 trades. Next week I can go Hore to Hurn and Stack to someone like Sloane or Duncan
OR
Duursma to Naish via Answerth, Hore to Luke Ryan. Leaves me with 11 trades and $171k
Liking option 1
Cool restyle btw <img src="
" width="1"/>
Totally lost on whether to go Sloane or Macrae. Have the money for either, but I guess the extra cash would be nice if i went Sloane. Thoughts?
Macrae is probably going to outscore Sloane, so I’d say Macrae.
Pick the best players in each position if possible and Macrae is near the top of the pile.
Depends on how the rest of ya team looks razza. Sloane is great value and if that 80k saving allows you to get Say a Lloyd instead of a houli next week then that’s when you take Sloane but If this is ya last premo spot In ya 22 and cash saved meant nothing macrae for H2H pts between the two but not a lot in it probably.
Do i drop B Smith or M Hore this week??
Hore looked bad last week. Think May is squeezing his points. I'll probably give one more week.
Hore to Logue for me, May is effecting his scoring and will lose value from this point
10 Trade – 125K. May need to keep Duursma so I don't cop an Answerth type score.
Would love your trade advice this week. I was thinking Answerth to Logue and maybe a loophole downgrade in the midfield.
Just struggling to think what trades this week.
Lloyd, Houli. Laird, Sicily, Duursma, Answerth (Burgess, Marsh)
Fyfe, Macrae, Dunkley, Neale, Cripps, Oliver, D Clarke, Bewley (Hately, O Baker, Setterfield)
Gawn, Grundy (Bines)
Danger, T Kelly, Heeney, Boak, R Gray, J Cameron (Gardner, M Parker)
Tick for the Answerth to Logue trade. No one in your mids looks ready to go. Parker to Naish via Burgess gets you some more cash
Think that one is going to be popular.
Also guilty 😜
Do you think Duursma should go this week. I didn't really want to play both Clarke and Hately tonight but may have to as they are midfielders in the true sense. No loophole there. I'll have to wait until the teams are named.
Hey guys, absolutely lost as to what my next move should be.
Team is currently. 12 trades left $115,500 in bank.
Lloyd, whitfield, sicily, ryan, hore, logue( young mckay )
Kelly, fyfe, cripps, cogs, macrae, neale, oliver, hately ( answerth, stocker o baker)
Gawn grundy
Danger, dunkley, cameron, kelly, boak, setterfield ( young gardner )
I know i have whitfield there but nows it feels to late now to.do anyhing with him, my bench is very light all over …
Was thinking just downgrading def young to naish for cash amd cover and maybe hind for answerth for cash… but hore BE big …
Only.going for head to head wins if that makes any diff
Any suggestions out there would be sweet
😐 Rocky you ….
So do I put him on the bench and play Clarke for a week? Sell him for M Crouch?
Why do you still have Rocky?
You could always put the e on Clarke. If he has a bad game then bring in Crouch.
Brilliant holty! Thanks mate
Hey guys, posted this on the podcast thread and Russty gave me a good option, but would love to get another opinion or 2!
9 trades left, 4.8k in the bank
Def: Hurn, Ryan, laird, Williams, Crisp, Hore (naish, Gardner)
Mid: Fyfe, Macrae, Cripps, Oliver, bont, Sloane, Crouch, Clarke (Answerth, Baker, Bewley)
Ruc: Gawn, Grundy (ROB)
Fwd: Dunkley, Danger, Boak, Tkelly, J Cameron, Heeney (Young, Bines)
Thinking definitely downgrade at least once this week. Also need to grab Lloyd ASAP abut would only work if I traded ROB.
Any suggestions would be great thanks guys!

Can anyone tell me Oscar Bakers BE?
Also bringing either Williams or Ryan for Hore, which one do you think? Leaning towards Ryan for consistency
It's 28 I reckon. I wanna go him to Hateley this week because I plan to use two trades per week for the next few (if I don't get some cash now, even if it's only 70k, it will stuff me up later).
Wondering if I should get Hind instead and make more money just in case I need extra money later, or even if I go Hire to a forward rookie via dpp… would have to go early on the forward rookie though…
7 trades left for the next couple of weeks with 284k in the bank.
Can't decide of who to bring in at M8 out of
JKelly, Merrett, Parker or Duncan
Waiting on TKelly to drop in price or Marshall, Gray for the last spot at Fwd
I think Mid will be my last upgrade for the season as i cant decide who to bring in. Plus my trades are really low, need to make that last two upgrade worth it. Need durability, consistency from those players specially in the Mid.
Lloyd, Hurn, Stewart
Houli, Rich, Sicily
Rotham, Logue
Fyfe, Macrea, Cunners, Cripps
Oliver, Cogs, The Bont, Clarke
Bewley, Hind, Scott
Gawn, Grundy, Bines
Dunkley, Danger, Walters
Boak, Heeny, Setterfield
Young, Garner
Hey guys, which option works best to set me up for the rest of the season? Got 1 upgrade in defense and midfield and hoping to get an F7 in there too! 9 trades but only 4.5k in the bank
1. Hore and Answerth – Logue and Hind (leaves 384k)
2. Hore and ROB – Lloyd and Logue (leaves 111k)
So obviously option 2 nets me the most points this week. But i'm also looking towards the next couple of weeks where im eyeing off Robbie young – Tom Hawkins as F6 so i can push Cameron to F7. Thoughts guys?
Looking to paint the fence this week, need help guys in choosing one of these options:
Option A (expensive mid option)
Duursma – Logue (plays at D6 for the next few weeks)
Walsh – JKelly
Option B (less expensive mid option)
Duursma – Logue
Walsh – Sloane/Merrett/Duncan
I'll be left with one Mid and one Def spot left to upgrade with either of these options I go with, what do we think all?
Still got to wait on other teams to come out later too, hopefully, they don't affect my decision too much.
If you’re upgrading your other mid next week, go for option 2 and then get Kelly next week. He has a BE of 151, projected at 128 with a 10k loss. The risk is is if he gets 175 he’ll go up 10k.
How much does Hore drop if he scores another 50?
He will drop around $23K back to $400K.
I'm punting him to be about $413k next week.
Hey community would really appreciate some advice on my team. Have 13 trades and 177k in the bank.
DEF: Lloyd, Sicily, Williams, Smith, Logue, Hore (Duursma, Buurgess)
MID: Fyfe, Neale, M Crouch, Bont, Macrae, Cogs, Cripps, Clarke (Bewley, Baker, Scott)
RCK: Gawn, Grundy (Sweet)
FWD: Danger, Kelly, Gray, Heeney, Marshall, Daniel (Young, Gardner)
Aiming on getting Sloane and Hurn over the next couple weeks and then waiting a bit for cash to get my D6. Logue should be decent in the meantime. Not sure about the best way to get it done or if these are even my best moves.
You could get Hurn in immediately, but his break even is 161.
Who are you looking at for the other defender? I’d be tempted to get Laird at just over 500k this week, probably for Duursma.
I’d also jump on either Hind or Hately for Scott.
Last point, it might cost an extra trade, but J Kelly instead of Sloane.
Thanks for the response. Was considering something like Baker to Sloane and Duursma/Hore to Naish. Was thinking at waiting a week on Hurn since he has a high BE and trade out whichever one of Hore/Duursma survives this week. For the other defender I was tempted to wait until Whitfield comes back as Logue should hold the fort at D6 for a while and I am low on available cash. Other options I was looking at are Houli who should drop in price by the time I have enough to afford him. Ryan, Laird and Stewart are other ones I would consider but it would mainly depend on form, my bank and current prices. Hately and Hind are tempting as well as they should appreciate nicely to help speed up my money problem. I would like Kelly in my team but I don't know if I have enough cash left to get 2 defenders and Kelly.
SC projection is 2500 this week. The only line sub premo is my def. 10 trades and only $14k.
Def is Lloyd, Laird, Williams, B Smith, Hore and Duursma (Naish, Gardner/Burgess).
Would appreciate som advice on the best option.
1. Burgess to Logue and any of
Baker to Hind – allows only Hore to Hurn next week.
Lockhart to Hately or Hind – allows any of B Smith, Hore or Duursma to Hurn next week.
2. Duursma to Logue and Hore to Hurn this week – only uses 2 trades but lose some flexibility.
Is it worth trading a rookie with a lot of cash left to make to bring in Sloane? I’m thinking trading bewley so I can be 1 player off full premo
Personally no but who is to say what’s right or wrong in this situation. 🤔
At some point in the season it makes sense. It depends on where your team is at. It sounds like it wouldn’t be too bad for you to pull the trigger early on Bewley.
You rang?
Everybody panic. 😱
Trying not to until teams drop Holty, then it's mass panic 😥
I am nervous Holty, but not panicking yet. That might happen at 4.30 pm (Perth time) when teams drop. I have Answerth, Gibbons, and Balta, and have spuds like Garner and Burgess as well. Cant afford for the axe to fall on my rooks, then its full blown panic mode.
Im hearing Cripps is out with a toe injury
Oh 💩
Where did you hear this bobby?
scanning the HS and Fox footy sites and no mention of this…source?
At least 2 weeks out I have heard
What do people think about putting the VC on Cameron?
josh kelly all the way for me
If I had him, i’d do the same.
Sick Crippa is out…..
Which forward do i get for under 510k? Will be my F6

Hey guys, absolutely lost as to what my next move should be.

Lloyd, whitfield, sicily, ryan, hore, logue( young mckay )
Kelly, fyfe, cripps, cogs, macrae, neale, oliver, hately ( answerth, stocker o baker)

Only.going for head to head wins if that makes any diff
Any suggestions out there would be sweet
I’M PANICKING
only because McKay and Cripps are out for your beloved Blues
Which two to loophole for Cripps out of Clarke, Hind and Bewley?
Clarke and Bewley. That's what I'm doing.
Who to get between Parish, Gray, Billings and Hawkins?
I like Gray out of those 4 Sinny, nice 3 round av.
Hey guys can I do a trade during the round? Say on Friday night after the Essendon GWS game?
yes as long as those players arent from the thursday game. also once a trade is done after the start of the round you cannot reverse it.
Loophole Clarke or Hately tonight?
Hately
So Keep Clarke on field you reckon for tonight?
Im confused. Play hately before d clarke
Clarke on the bench in case he scores bugger all.
That’s what I did
Go for Sloane this week or grab Hately on a double down? Leaning to Sloane as and worrying about cash gen next week
I am in the EXACT same boat TC!!
i think i am taking sloane with crippa out and going to let hately sail.
But do not feel good about it at all
Went Hately. Could be a bargain M8 while I improve my weak backline.
If you have trades to make use out of hately and possibly field him or loop him then take him
I’m down to 6 trades and it’s just not worth me getting him sadly was thinking of getting him for some solid cover but I just won’t make enough coin to make it worthwhile
Hately or Hind?
Is it worth trading ROB – Lloyd this week or going the double down and doing answerth – Hind/hately. Only 7 trades left after 2 this week
Just when you thought it was safe to exhale , cripps drops a bombshell, rethinking trades and moves and nOW I 'M PANICING !!!!!!!!
Gold
Hope not have the vc on him
Can see a lot of people getting hately due to crippsnout but im backing in d clarke into o baker to cover for cripps.
I still dont know know if to get sloane logue or logue hately!!
his poor JS and whitfield back in a week or two scares me…
I am taking a pass on Hately and getting in Sloane this week I think. Already have Logue but need to bring in a defender and mid so Sloane and Naish it is I think.
I went hately!!
Such a tough one. I’m panicking big time!!! At this stage I’m going hind
I ended up not getting him in since none of my mid rookies are ready to trade out yet. I have Stack, Drew, Baker, Clarke and Bewley.
Who goes first, Hore or Duursma?
Hore
I am thinking I might trade Hore first, this is a very hard decision
I'm keeping both until they aren't playing anymore.
Where is that PANIC button…… what/where/when did Cripps get injured?
CARLTON superstar Patrick Cripps will miss his first match since 2017 on Sunday, with a sprained foot preventing him from facing Fremantle.
Cripps sustained the injury in the three-point loss to the Western Bulldogs before the bye and failed to recover sufficiently despite the week off.
He is one of the leading fancies for this year's Brownlow Medal despite the Blues' struggles and could miss multiple games, so this setback could have wider ramifications.
Well this is some bad bloody news!
Seriously!!
Wonder why it wasn't reported on the Official AFL Injury list, especially if it's been 2 weeks?
Probably cause he's the glue that holds that fragile Team together, and maybe normally he toughs it out through niggles, because he's superhuman. Must be pretty sore now though.
So true
Talk he may miss 2
I think i did a bad bad thing bringing it Hately
I panicked my finger slipped on the trade button and he accidentally landed in my team..
25 points with 16 mins to go in the 2nd quarter with 7 disposals is pretty good for a rook Mav, he'll be right.
The issue with him is, will he continue to play, not his scoring ability.
Who did you trade out for him Mav. You were thinking about Answerth in one of your other posts, if so it was probably a good trade, as long as Hately gets a few games in a row that is. His JS was my main worry, plus none of my mid rookies were ready to trade out.
I went duursma -> logue and answerth -> hately John.
I hope hately gets one more week to prove himself before whitfield is back.
He is far too good to be wasting away in the NEAFL getting his 35+ touches each week
Best thing I did this year was start Williams
Worst thing was trading him out.
I feel that pain sharply The Holt…I traded him out after his 60 odd for Stewart, and then Whitfield went out and Williams proceeded to go nuts…and has gone ever since Whitfield has been out…and Stewart has been ok but not scoring like Williams.
Williams is smashing it without Whit in the side.
Same, to Whitfield the week he got injured….
I traded him for Lloyd when he got injured thinking it would be longer than a week. I then traded him back in when Whitfield went down. Not too much damage done (1 trade).
Hately only 62% tog and still on 40. 🤔
Next week could be 0% TOG
Yep, his wasn’t the best game … and a couple of mistakes in the last qtr cost them… back to the NEAFL for a few weeks, or maybe the rest of the year I think Derek..
So, Cripps looking at multiple weeks out. Hold or fold?
Gotta hold I think Rick…how would you get him back in?
Many weeks to go…and miles to go before we sleep.
Some Carlton supporter on fanfooty said he’s out for the season… I hope he was joking!
If you have cover, hold.
Hold for at least this round until the information is more clear. Personally I’ll give him at least two weeks before I even consider what trade options might be available.
I’m having a serious think about it. It’s the only way to avoid a donut in my forwards, using dpp of Answerth and Gardner. I’ll bring in Boak. I’ve got a day and bit to mull it over.
I didn’t take hately, watch him stay in the side for 6 weeks
I traded Hately in Round 8, missed adjusting trades when he didn't get named. Finally get to put him to some use!
Hey Community I have 9 Trades Left and 207k In the bank any Advice Will help.
