      2. The only way for me to get Fyfe off field is to trade in Riley Garcia (WB – $125,200 FWD – 82 points & 64 – versus Haw @ Marvel) instead of Jake Rogers (GC – $148,400 MID – 28 points & 98 – versus Bris @ Gabba).

        And then play Riley Garcia instead of getting Fyfe’s sub affected score.

        Think Rogers job security is better than Garcia, but Garcia has been in the system for 2 to 3 years (so looks ready for AFL) – and there is the Bevo factor

        t/u – trade in Rogers & take Fyfe’s sub affected score

        t/d – trade in Garcia & take his score (move Fyfe to bench)

          1. Riley Garcia is named on the field, so my understanding is that the WB cannot make him the sub?

            Can anyone please confirm this?

              1. Thanks CT

                With Rhylee West & Cody Weightman both out this week, surely Garcia plays that high half forward / forward pocket role in their place

                As you say, Bevo can make some strange calls though 🙂

                Definitely not sure on Garcia’s job security though – but he should go OK today against the Hawks (if he is not the sub)

                Will keep all fingers & toes crossed !!

              2. Pulled the pin – reversed the J Rogers in trade, traded in Garcia instead and moved Fyfe to mid bench. Lets hope it doesn’t bite me on the butt.

              3. Who was the player NATO? Never seen an onfield player be named sub. Always a bench player

          2. Astute response Lisa, as all know Bevo could just do that as he has indicated before that with Libba playing Garcia is a sub candidate.

  4. No cover. Do I swap Rogers (who I traded in this week) to Simpson to get Fyfe off field?

    TU: Yes
    TD: No – Take whatever score Fyfe puts out

    1. Do you already have Riley Garcia?

      If not, maybe consider swapping your “trade in target” from Rogers to Garcia

      Or does your swap in target need to be a MID?

      1. Already have R.Garcia who is currently sitting at F6. I’ve got Biggie and Livingstone (both locked out) sitting on my bench.

        1. Cooper Simpson looked good last week – speedy forward who applies pressure & uses the ball well

          But obviously he has only played 1 x game – and he was the sub for that game

          And Fyfe will come back in for a full game next week

          So this is a tough call – I’d be inclined to take Fyfe’s sub affected score unless you really need an extra say 15 to 40 points for an important league win

  5. Alex Sexton named on field in their VFL game starting now vs Brisbane.

    Is he a loop option for Fyfe? if you have him.

  8. Originally brought in Bont this week, do I reverse him to get Shai Bolton and work some dpp magic to avoid Fyfes sub score?

    Tu: hold Bont and take the hit
    Td: go for it

  10. If we decide to keep Fyfe be prepared to do this every 3weeks approximately.

    We were told preseason this was going to happen……..

  13. So I learnt today that lockout happens at programmed game time 12.30, not actual game start 12.33?

  16. Wishful thinking but if Fyfe doesn’t play any game time I will get Wilson’s 126.
    Wouldn’t that be a nice outcome

    Cooper Simpson a dead downgrade target on 0 at half time

      1. 1441/15
        Projected 2142 and only Serong in this game, so expecting a bump on 84 already.
        Traded Grundy out thinking he’d score 100 and Green in for a 5………….
        Wilson on bench but could not loop a single rookie this week.
        VC was on Sheezel and C on Gawn
        Williams got subbed and will be traded to Petracca probably.
        Miller, Zorko, Flanders, Bont, Graham and Darcy to come

        Could have been a lot worse

  24. Ryan off tap.

    Gave him a fleeting mention in brackets in captains this week but this is unreal.

    Wrapt. Off to Dogs Hawks we go.
