What did you get right? What did you get wrong? Which of those player pairings came out on top. A little informal polling courtesy of a great suggestion from Cuzza:
We have all made decisions – pick player A, drop player B in the very last week – to fit into salary cap, or we had a ‘gut’ feel, or we just tossed the coin…
How did it work for you?
Example – had Nank, swapped to TDK = +34 points or vice versa -34
I’m looking at my selections (who I had in team for months then dropped for whatever reason) to see how well I have done (vindicate my decisions) – wonder if others doing same?
Had Ashcroft until I heard sub
Went to FOS over NOD
Lost 33 points if I held or gained 7 if I went NOD
Faded ndaicos.
It was Neale or Dunks.
You know the rest
Had Farrell all pre season and went to Perryman at the last to get cash for JHF…
Don’t know if anyone can top mine, had Dunkley since they announced Brisbane wouldn’t have an early bye, then before the first bounce Thursday I found myself a spare 40k and upgraded him to Neale. A lazy -132 .
Oh jesus, Ben.
Brutal.
Let’s be honest though, no-one had dunks for 170+ on the bingo card… not even Maaz or I
Had to get some money to find a way to get Neale in the side But the way I did it was NWM down to Freijah which has at least worked ok at least
But on the other hand, I did convince myself that Sanders would be better to have than Smith and that was an 80 point mistake
same
Feel like I butchered it in the rucks.
Gawn and Nank.
Maxxy went quiet late and really should have done more. Big part of knowing I was overpaying was a 160+ C to balance against it.
Nank was great but gifted TDK a 30 point swing with 4 free kicks. Sigh.
Reid over Knevitt OF and then Sanders, Peatling and SPP were disasters. Didn’t love 200k for FOS’ score either.
Few positives. Zorko. Jumped off Neale, jumped off Tsatas early in the week. Grabbed SDK in that 350-390k DEF spot over Wagner 10 minutes before kick off. Held fat with Anderson from December.
No real 50/50s bc I cleared and re-did team based on Thursday sheets.
Yea Dunks to Neale convinced over the year will be better.
Brought Garcia in over Bayley smith to get Neale.
After having Bailey Smith in my side forever for my last trade went Bailey Smith & Luke Parker to Izak Rankine & Sam Powell-Pepper for a minus 70.
Neale over Dunkley caused a bad nights sleep. And of course Bailey Smith jumps out of the blocks with the best game he will play this year. Got that one wrong. Thought Freo would have applied more pressure, but Smith was left to do as he pleased and Freo very poor. Serong at FF was beyond stupid.
Jumping off Bailey Smith at the 11th hour hurt. SPP was a disaster. Rage trades here I come! 🙂
Last minute change of Bailey smith and Hugo Garcia to Sam Powell pepper and sanders to be able to get the extra cash for Gawn. Faded daicos to go neale knowing he’d get tagged but still expected a better score
