: Ok let me know if you're struggling to fill the league.
: Neade set to be rested this week. Why you would rest him for indigenous round I dunno. Source Afl.com
: Nathan Lovett Murray was stabbed last night in Reservoir. Currently in Royal Melbourne Hospital
: Little SC Gold analyser tells me I'll miss the services of 8 players in round 11, 10 players in round 12 and 12 players in round 13. I think I've stumbled into a nice little structure for the bye rounds. Only a handful of premiums to miss Round 11, and then I can start trading out my rookies when their byes hit.

I have made my decision. You do not sideways trade. Ever(unless LTI). However I may have to reconsider Golby as my mid-priced POD. There appears to be better options at his price and he is still young so will get better just not good enough for my needs. I am not happy with Shaw, Broughton, Pavlich and Martin but will stand by them. Trades are gold.

ive watched golby closely for a few years, and yes, his injuries have cursed him, but in my opinion, a star in the making. he hasnt played many games, but he has poise and knowledge, and his stats actually do count. only downside is voss as coach. hes playing him as a tagger in defence, which is costing the lions. when voss lets him loose, he will be in the drummond mould ie: setting up from half back. blacks injury means adcock will move to the middle, which in turn i believe will free up golby to be the play maker.so i am sticking with him for 2 more weeks, freo, then gc. thats my opnion, and of course could be wrong. good luck either way with your decision juddy.

Personally I think the eagles and sydney was a better rivalry. Hasn’t Geelong won all the games against hawks since the grand final a few years back? I don’t think it’s much of a rivalry if one team keeps winning, even if they are great games like they were today. Eagles and Sydney you couldn’t pick who would win and all there games were decided by something like less then 10 points over a few years and they played in 2 grand finals and won one each. But that’s just my opinion…. I do think that hawks and cats games are great to watch though and always a nail biter.

I doubt anybody thinks Dempsey will outscore Broughton over the course of the entire year – however his price will be increasing as Broughton’s is falling and he will be scoring good points whilst you decide which of the fallen premiums to acquire later. Depending on how close your team is to winning overall, and how consistent he is, he may even be a keeper – certainly a handy bench player to have.

2053 with Murphy captain.
Seen a few go with this format, so I might go back to school and give it a go this week:
A+: Murphy, Deledio, Lake, Goddard, Ablett
A: Pendlebury, Magner, Clarke, Selwood
B: Fyfe, Kennedy, Shiel, Bugg, Ellis
C: Cox, Broughton, Franklin, Smith
D: Pavlich, Martin, Hall
F: Mumford (no EMG)
Not looking forward to seeing the overall ranking I’ll have tonight, but it’s only early days. Leaning towards sticking with Broughton as he’s got Brisbane, Gold Coast and Port in his next 5 and he’s got just as much potential as any other premium back. Not many others doing too much better down there! And I hate trading Premiums!

For some reason Clarko loves Shitmakers and has faith in him. I just don’t get it. He can’t match up on the big boys, his decision-making sucks and he’s like a rabbit in the headlights when the pressure is on. I’d jettison him at the end of the year. Has probably single handedly cost us 3-4 games against the Cats the last 2-3 years. That said, Tomahawk is a monster it looks like he starting to believe in what his body can do on the ground.
Bateman is finished, and has been on the decline with injuries the last 2-3 years. I’d be playing Shiels and Puopolo ahead of him.
Osborne has some value as he is a good pressure small forward. He just had a bad day.

The kids 21 and playing against monsters because we don’t have enough size down back.

Agree with NN9, Boumann had Dawes and Gibson was providing a chop out between him and Cloke. I hope he proves me wrong, but I just don’t think he’s up to it smarts-wise.
Agree Fish that when we needed those blokes to stand up they went missing. That’s why blokes like Bartel and Joelwood are triple premiership players. Maybe Hodge could have made the difference.

If mumford has an LTI its time to bring myself in (NIC_NAT) looks like our no.1 ruck so far this year and he loves getting contested possies. should have gone with my gut feeling and started him. Cox;s numbers are down and surely Nic has something to do with it so far.
Other option wait it out since mumford wont drop in price, (run with Redden and Giles) and get Cox or Goldstein at a cheaper price?

Why do people who get 2300 + in the first two rounds call it an ‘ok’ score?
Or they question it, i’ve seen something like ’2400 isn’t bad is it?’
It’s a grouse score ! There’s no need to complain about it, when you’re ranked in the top 500 weekly scores!

Could Rance be the next Joel Bowden at Tigerland with cheap disposals?
pretty tempting.
Broughton Dilemma.
Problem is Ross Lyon, if broughton was playing his normal role and was just having a bad spell then i dont think we would consider trading him, the fact that he’s fine and that he’s role has changed is the real worry! he’s becoming the carazzo of a few years ago when he started tagging and playing negating roles so i think he’s gotta go, bite the bullet people!!

People thinking of downgrading Broughton/Shaw/Scotland to Dempsey, don’t be silly?
Why might you ask? I’ll tell you why!
despite saving the odd $250 K, you’re downgrading a premium, a proven performer who has generally been a supercoach favourite to a man who had the dirtiest of beards a week back.
Some people will say “I don’t care about beards, he’s averaged 100 odd points in the last 2 weeks and is about to rise in price”
Supercoachers, don’t be naive, we’re talking about a man who’s just come back from a season ending knee injury, with a history of inefficient ball use (though i must admit, he’s been much improved in the last 2 games).
Dempsey, in all likelihood, won’t be a keeper in your team, once he hits a certain price, you’ll want to upgrade him to someone better, more consistent, requiring yet ANOTHER TRADE. That’s two trades used to get from one premium to another.
Again, the counter argument might be “well i just made 250 thousand, who cares if i use 2 trades”.
There’s no guarantee Dempsey will keep up his scoring efficiency, and what if that happens? there goes yet ANOTHER TRADE, trying to fix a premium who’s had 2 bad weeks ! Is it worth the risk, putting yet another mid-pricer in our defences anyway? When there are proven performers for the same price, such as Brian Lake? Who many of us have, do we really need another mid-pricer to solve our Premium problems?
With that said, I must admit, the Broughton trade is looking very tempting. Why, you might ask? If he’s a premium, won’t he come good?
Normally, the answer would be ‘of course, you’d be absurd to trade out a premium’.
The risk many of us took was that Broughton would be used in his more fancied role of on ball, or through the guts you might prefer. This is where he churned out his best scores alst year and in previous years. What Lyon has done, is place him in a shut down role – the worst kind of role. This heavily negates his weekly supercoach score, as stopping his opponent is his main aim, not hitting 30 possies and a goal. When he was named on ball for round 1, I, like many other supercoachers placed him in our sides straight away. Big, big mistake.
The way to go is to sideways trade him, there are plenty of options like Birchall, Bock, Suckling, Carrazzo, Bob Murphy, Fisher, and many more. There’s just no certainty in downgrading a premium to a mid-pricer.

the argument i think people will find with your analysis of the situation is that, with all things staying the same, Broughton is not a premium SC prospect… The common definition of a premium is someone who scores a ton on average… Is Broughton one those players “with all things staying the same”

In his current role, definitely not. Though I strongly think Dempsey is the wrong option to replace someone worth $508 K.
With the Duff out this week, he may gain a more sustained run in the midfield, though with Mundy and Barlow slowly making their way back to the starting 21, it’s not a certainty.
The problem is, there are just too many variables with Broughton at the moment, too many potential factors that will influence his scoring.

“Don’t worry about it. My turn again.”
On an irrelevant note, Birchall seems pretty consistent. If you watched todays game he had an awesome 3rd quarter after a quiet first half which really boosted his score.
Carrazzo seems to have been freed up a bit this year, wouldn’t really recommend him though.
Wait until a poll gets posted up by Motts I guess

Hi guys,
Quick Question: I’m surprised Dustin Martin’s name hasn’t come up in more conversation. He’s underperformed and will lose out on a heap of cash.
I Was thinking of bringing in Zaharakis or even opting for Tommy Hawkins after his superb start to the year. Even thought of bringing in Petrie! Let me know your thoughts – Can definitely raise some money on his trade! Especially if I opt for T Hawkins who will likely go up around $20k and Dustin Martin drop around $20-30k.
Thoughts?
