Cheatsheet | Pre Round 18
Good morning community. We’re back with another cheat sheet to “aid you in troubled times”. As we all know too well, this game is never easy. And the recent string of season ending injuries to premos is not making it any easier, with Kelly last week and now Coniglio.
There are some pretty decent replacements for Coniglio, almost like for like: Sloane at $544k, Yeo at $539k, Merrett at $497k, Duncan at $502k, JPKennedy at $533k and Taranto at $512k. These are just suggested as straight swaps, but if you need to jump up the rankings or differentiate yourself from your cash league opponents, then they suggested below might be more up your alley.
And there are actually a few players on the bubble this week, and while we can never guarantee their job security, they look promising. Other than that, it’s much of the same for most of us. Don’t waste valuable trades, target players in the top 6, or solid PODS, and cross your fingers.
Anyway, good luck Community, keep your eyes on the prize.
Statty Matty.

BRAYSHAW OUT MARC MURPHY IN??
Only if you have Merrett, Yeo etc already
Yeh MAD MIKEY…sounds good.
Hey community,
Currently ranked 241, with 6 trades left
My final trade I will be making is finally getting rid of brodie smith this week
Who is the better option, Whitfield or Hurn? (Currently have Ryan, Siciliy, Williams, Lloyd and Stewart)
Cheers
Whitfield for me, especially seeing as he is now somewhat of a POD. Only question is if his body holds up.
Definitely Whitfield, not only a higher ceiling but cant get tagged and is incredibly cheap.
I would get rid of Sicily before Smith personally.. Whitfield > Hurn
Best Midfield to bring in for the rest of the year lads? Duncan, Trealor, Parker, JPK, Sloane, Cunnington, Zerrett, Taranto, Yeo.
I am stumped and its done my head in all week.
DUNCAN'S YOUR MATE
I love to have a beer with Duncan.
My pick – Sloane or Treloar. Both in great form and top 8 teams. But I also like Zerrett and Duncan as cheaper options if you need to save some cash.
this
1 duncan
1 Sloane
1 trealor
1 Taranto
🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯
Duncan!
I have two trades left, have a full team. but still want to trade Brayshaw, do I trade or not? Currently have no cover in forward or ruck and Logue is in my defence. Should I do one trade for him?
Is Logue your cover or your D6?
I’m in a similar situation with logue d7 and brayshaw m8, but I’ve got a bit of forward and ruck cover (z Clarke and setterfield). I’ve got 3 trades left and unfortunately think we’ve got to hold him at least for now. If the carnage of the last few weeks is anything to go by we need to save a few trades….. I am still tempted to trade him to Greene though….
greene was the only person I was thinking, but forward PODS never seem to work
No, Logue is my cover.
That Newman…<img src="

ive currently got a full side with 5 trades left but no bench cover in the backline, would it be smart to go coniglio and chol to zorko and birchall via dpp to get a premium i otherwise wouldnt be able to afford with a sideswap and bench cover?
Good trades
Last week's cheat sheet suggested Dylan Shiel. I had, separate to said cheat sheet, already decided to bring him in. We were both very very wrong 🙁
That’s pretty much par for the course this season. Unfortunately the cheat sheet is not what it used to be. Can’t help but hang out for it each week still. I have just learnt not to follow it that much.
It's just suggestions and possibilities though, the fun in the game is making your own calls in the end.
If you don't have your team sorted out by now, the Cheet sheet ain't gonna help you.
Nice work Statty Matty…I would trade several of those guys in…if I had trades lol.
What do people think about Birchall?
I need to wait another week to get Whitfield, which means I end up fielding Answerth or Logue this week.
Birchall is only 205k. It is only to put him on the field this week, but he could be outstanding cover after that. Leaves me with 5 trades, but I need 2 next week to get Whitfield, then I’ll be as “full premium” as I’m going to get.
Always good for a 70 or 80 if that's what you are looking for..
Pretty much what I need. but I hope he can pump out a big score this week.
I reckon he's worth getting in RH…did pretty well in his return game.
Risk of being given a spell after a few games is probably pretty high.
do i bring in taranto or treloar for cogs this week ?
treloar in great form but taranto could turn it on with kelly and cogs out…
thoughts ?
Taranto or Duncan?
Dunc
Surely fyfes only out a week?!
Anyone know what the op was for?
With Cogs and Fyfe out there are some hard decisions to make … and heaven help those with both and who are holding Jelly.
Infected elbow apparently
Probably got infected from that stinky stocking he wears on it.
Have heard whispers that Fyfe will miss the rest of the season. Same bloke told me hogan would go to freo half way through last year so pretty reliable
Better Not be!!!
Think you may be onto something. Just read it's a serious infection and it's unconfirmed when he will be back. Think ill be up all night reversing and revising lol
Heard Fyfe had antibiotic treatment and is out for a week only – anyones guess really
Trade Cogs to Parker or Oliver and why?
Parker.. better run home and is trust him to be more consistent
Is Bont a certain starter? Could be mayhem this week..
We are LIVE! Let's talk Fyfe! (link: https://www.twitch.tv/lekdoggames) twitch.tv/lekdoggames #supercoach
Collingwood fans – how's Quaynor's JS?
Looking better with all our injuries. may hold his spot for few more weeks. at least few weeks till D Moore is back.
Rampe as a pod or Whitfield for last Defender spot
Whitfield.
A pod is only any good if they will regularly outscore the other and I don’t see this happening.
Hi all,
Bit stumped what to do this week, 6 Trades / $10000. Playing for league wins(should be ok this week)
Def: Williams, Lloyd, Laird, Hurn, Sicily, B. Smith (Logue, Gardner)
Mids: Macrae, J. Kelly, Fyfe, Cripps, Neale, Oliver, M. Crouch, Rocky( Clarke, Bewley, Hatley)
Ruck: Gawm, Grundy(Bines)
FW; Dunkley, Boak, Danger, Kelly, Heeney, Daniels (Chol, Young)
option 1, Hatley to Hill
Option 2 Kelly and Rocky to Sloane & JPK/ Cunnington
Option 3 – Nothing
Maybe just Kelly to another premo.
Hi Community, looking to replace Coniglio with either Sloane, Treloar, Zorko, Parker or Merrett. Which one guys? Cheers.
Zork
tough week, i'm undecided at the moment <img src="https://s04.flagcounter.com/mini/Jkzv/bg_FFFFFF/txt_DEDEDE/border_FFFFFF/flags_0/" width="1"/>
Community, need help with captain decision.
Playing for league win and must win this week and it's all going to come down to my captain choice. Opponent already has Grundy 157 score as captain, so do I go Gawn, MacRae, or run the gauntlet with Dunkley??? Just need to come close to a 150 CAPT score to match Grundy to take the win…..
