It would be nice if Billy Longer was NOT named.
I have Marshall and since I have traded him in he has scored 50 vs Gawn and then been a late out causing me to have a donut.
Surely things must turn for the better….surely
Great line for a song….”Things….can only get better !!”
My prayers have been answered….Longer not even listed as an emergency.
Constable out whilst disappointing (as there is more cash to be made if he plays) it does open up my preferred captains loophole of VC Cripps and C Fyfe.
Plus I don’t have Whitfield or Scrimshaw.
Seems likely things HAVE got better
Really hoping some rookies get blooded this week…in need of downgrades in the coming weeks
Scrimshaw managed
And my opponent doesn’t have him of course
For those with both Whitfield and Scrimshaw maybe some hard decisions to make.
Thank goodness for Moore dpp
Decision made…scrimshaw to Laird
BOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!
Constable omitted
That has caused massive concerns for these midfield rookies…….
Are you shitting me? What more does that kid have to do.
Constable omitted seems very strange??
Do I take the punt on Collins to Answer the, and Crouch to Fyfe?
Certain he goes out next week. Andrews and Mathieson will be back.
As a Lions fan, I’d disagree with this. Lester would surely make way for Andrews and don’t think Matho is an automatic inclusion to the side. If he came back, I’d say it would be for Taylor.
Answerth’s main competition for his spot is Zac Bailey. Even then, Cutler would probably get the chop, as he struggles to get a solid run of games. I really like the look of Answerth and I know the Brisbane coaches are too.
Will certainly be managed here and there due to his back problems, but I can see him getting games. If the Lions win, Fages tends not to make too many changes to a winning formula, so that could also be in his favour. In saying this I would not recommend ever going early on a rookie unless it is completely necessary. But if he plays a solid game I think he retains his spot.

Do we trade out Constable? Safe on-field option and still has a low B.E but he’s been dropped for some mysterious reason.
Tough midfield to stay in
Chances of Clark being named off extended bench for Geelong? Gotta flick him or Scrimshaw via Moore DPP on Friday night to deal with this week’s carnage in the backline…
Clark has been confirmed to start.
Source? Only on extended bench according to afl.com.au
The title of the article “Clark and Parfitt among five inclusions” is deceptive.
It’s a guarantee really.. I’m not in the business of giving a young guy hope & going back on it. – Chris Scott comment on Clark’s start for week 7 during his press conference
no Whitfield, no Scrimshaw, no Constable, no C.Wagner, no B.Scott (maybe Clark too)
send help!
Been lucky to have an EMG rookie in each line lately, what is going on??
I think the reverse trades button will be getting a fair workout atm. What to do with Constable? Shocked that he has been omitted and was planning to upgrade him to Macrae in a couple of weeks when he had fattened some more. Bugger.
Right on. Got me stumped. Not sure if I should trade him now.
Yeah a really tough call mate…
TU: Butters to Hayes
TD: Constable to Hayes
If macrae keeps playn fwd you’ll be able to upgrade gibbons to him
PJ, Should I guess that you have Macrae and is pissed off? I am waiting 2 weeks to get him in cheap. BE of 175 is a tough ask against Richmond.
Beveridge loves innovating so he may be back playing more Mid then. He is a champion. I thought I couldnt afford him…
sicily named at HF – will he still play at the back??? His points come from a lot of kick ins, intercepts etc …
This is what put me off with Sicily in the first place mate. Clarke mentioned that he was swing forward on occasions in the pre-season. But only a team sheet, so wouldn’t worry too much.
Z. Williams is named in the forward pocket for the Giants, I wouldn’t read too much into team sheet positions.
Joyce from stkilda coming in saves me from using both trades in defence
Can you please list with Ins and Outs so we don’t have to try and figure out who is new from last week
Or you could just look on the AFL website.
Survival by attrition for Collins. He lives one more week… please play well Answerth!!!
Also how the hell can’t Rotham get a gig in the ones. Can’t we petition Adam Simpson or something!
who you dropping for him in their backs?
Absolutely deserves a chance if there is a spot for his position but there isn’t. Problems with WC at the moment aren’t there mid size backs!
Cole’s been pretty ordinary
Tom Cole and Will Schofield had 8 possessions between them last week. I’d say he could easily come in for one of those two…
I need a good replacement for burgess or should i keep him for now? i only have 254,800 in the bank
Mate I wouldn’t be that worried about Burgess. Reckon he’s more valuable as a loop option than a scorer. Hasn’t made enough cash to justify a downgrade, and unless your team’s just come into an inheritance, he’s not fattened enough to upgrade either. Keep him as a season long loop I reckon. Can come in really handy at the business end of the season when only a matter of points separate you and a GF win
Should i trade Scrimshaw for either:
T/U Laird
T/D Crisp/other
Or Lloyd?
Reckon constable might go this week, I know he has money to make but if he isn’t injured why is he out , no real js in my book now and was never going to make it through the season anyway, see ya mate and thanks for the scores and money you made.
Thinking Scrimshaw to Lloyd and Petruccelle to Daniel?
TU: Atkins to Hayes
TD: Constable to Hayes
RT
Currently got 4 out of my 8 defenders missing!!! Whitfield, Andrews, Newman and Scrimshaw all absent. Add to that Constable out, Setterfield on an extended bench plus Bines too. Argh!!!!!!!
Hately cant get a game with Whitfield out
Become an unreliable downgrade now
Thought I was having a hard year rb , but sc is really whacking you this season.
Roo Bloke this is a sign, just throw in the towel now. How many trades have you got left?
Scrimshaw > Brodie Smith? or Wait
Surely you can do better than Smith? Not a keeper.
So i have Scrimshaw and he is being manage this is the same comment as Tim but the way he wrote it is confusing to me so should i trade him
TU No- wait until more cash
TD – Trade to Brodie Smith
Comment down another recommendation players
Doesn’t have much more cash left in him, trade him out mate.
Atleast the coaches arnt resting premos
Defence carnage so need to pull the trigger.
TU – Scrimshaw-Young and Constable-TKelly
TD – Scrimshaw-BSmith and Constable-Hayes
Holding constable as he’s highly rated at the cattery, backing him to return before long.
Scrimshaw is bugging me, he’s solid but am tempted to make a move
TU: Scrimshaw -> answerth to turn 13k into 200k, field Wilkie this week then trade Atkins(bench) -> rookie and Wilkie(field) -> Whitfield next week.
TD: Hold scrimshaw, keep 24 trades and wait for him to return next week, meaning I can’t get Whitfield until the week after (round 9) when he’s cheaper.
I also have Burgess sitting FWD to play with.
As FD has always said, it’s the same for everyone!
I for one am not complaining. It’s forced me to do what I wanted to anyway, and presented me with a couple of loopholes to maximise points. What’s not to like?
Finally, you can stagger your up/downgrades based on the # of games played.
I think things just got a whole lot better!
Good luck all 🙂
I wish I had your optimism – I’m looking at my team and seeing disaster – not playing this week including Whitfield, Scrimshaw, possibly Clark (& possibly donut), Constable & B Scott. At least I have plenty of trades, as only used 1, but now don’t know what to do.
TU : Out – Scrimshaw & Constable, IN – C Daniel & Hayes (by swinging Burgess from FWD bench to DEF bench & hoping Clark is in or its a donut) & $18,800 bank,
OR
TD : Out – Collins / Scrimshaw & Atkins out for Answerth & Hayes & $314,200 bank
You trading Butters or Constable?
Can only afford to bring in C Daniel if I trade out Constable, not if I trade out Butters or Atkins, which would be my preferred option.
So think I’ll just do the double downgrade and start saving for the byes.
What are coaches thoughts on the trading in this week –
TU = Answerth even though he’s only played the one game
TD = L Young on the bubble but don’t think he’ll make much money
You are Right mate, you cannot trade Withfield, Scrimshaw was going to score around 60 anyway, so you either cope a donut or make the next best move. Things are never going to run perfectly until season end. It is part of playing SC.
I’ve got 2 options this week, missed most of the carnage luckily!
TU – Scrimshaw>Laird and Sheed>Rocky
TD – Scrimshaw>Hayes via DPP and Sheed > Fyfe. This option will leave me with no E in the backline for this week. Whitfield and Burgess on the bench.
Newman, Hanley and Scrimshaw, I need a trade to save a donut!
My plan was to pick up Hayes on the bubble and get Fyfe in, gonna have to miss out on something!
Wow! Mid price madness with your experience mate?
Yeah i know!
Anyone know how long Whitfield will be out for?
TU Hold
TD Trade
The Giants’ official injury list had him as ‘Test’ so given their history, could be anywhere from 1-6 weeks. I’m holding because it’s likely one week, two at the most.
Hey guys, im ranked 410th overall so my ranking will be stuffed after this week, and i have all 30 trades still left. i have scrimshaw and whitfield which will leave me with Hore and Clarke on field. Major problem is my midfield with constable out i have to play Butters and Atkins. only 30k in the bank so im thinking
Scrimshaw – Answerth / Young
And Constable – Rocky (hes the best i can afford)
THUMBS UP – Do it
THUMBS Down – Dont do it
HELP!!
Cheers
Did you do it? Rocky was awful. Sat forward a lot after Ebert went off.
Melbourne – Tim Smith OUT due to injury.
Declan Keilty IN ( def $123,900) 23-year-old to debut. Had two goals and six marks in Casey’s loss to Richmond VFL last week. Pick 41 in the 2017 Rookie Draft.

Thanks CT
Nice to know Clark gets a gig.
Shame Setterfield didn’t get straight back into the team, especially when there are so many exclusions. Don’t really want him as a loophole for another week.
LDU dropped. Great… now I have to field Atkins.
I had to trade him or I would have had to take Butters emergency score.
GREATER Western Sydney – Phil Davis and Josh Kelly late withdrawals due to injury. Replaced by Matt Buntine and Jackson Hately
Ooof! Lucky I went Fyfe over Kelly this week. Crisis averted.
Late trade upon checking in’s and out’s
Constable > Hayes, Scrim > Lloyd. 36k in the bank
Who to Captain:
T/U – Danger
T/D – Cripps
