I decided to go with Yeo instead of Steele for my first trade. Gives me an extra 80k to put into my bank or another player. What should I do?
T/U: Bank the 80k for a future trade and bring in Ridley?
T/D: Use the 80k to upgrade to Haynes instead?
Surely you’ve got bigger problems than Viney?? I’m keeping him for the moment. Think he will average 85-90. He might come out firing after the media attention during the week!
*prays*
Not really
Downgraded all my under performers to rooks & mid pricers
Got 8 rooks on field to upgrade
1 mill to spend
19 trades
Going Rowell to yeo sideways trade
Viney & arts score about the same maybe & both have good JS
That trade would make me about 300k more to spend when the premos get going “ hopefully “
I’d trade out Noble and Rowell and bring in another premo and a rookie.
That should go close to getting you Nick Haynes and an Aarts for example, and swing one of your For/Mids into the midfield. Basically bring in a permo and a rookie from Noble and Rowell.
Rankine is going to play so him and Aart should generate you some cash for the next 5+ rounds and you’ve got a few cows fattening up nicely in the shorter term.
Rowe to Fyfe? Traded Fyfe out last week but I think he’s going to be the highest scoring mid from here. Just pains me to waste 2 trades on him!
Thumbs up for Fyfe
Thumbs down for someone else (likely Tom Mitchell or Adam Treloar)
That really sux Nateo,
In my change of mind to not pick him I forgot to move Starcevich to my depleted backline, didn’t do it so now screwed with 2 dohnuts in the backline, now do I bring in a backline premium instead….not what I wanted to do!!!!’
King and the saints have freo this week so I’ll be loopholing King, but if a loophole isn’t available I’d field him anyway. Plus McInerney isn’t guaranteed to play this week, he is listed on the fringe of an extended sunday squad.
I need to now get rid of Naismith since Xerri got dropped. I also have a donut in the defence. I’m going to have to trade out Rowell and swing Rivers to the mid bench so I can bring in a defender.
Do I:
TU: bring in Gawn and Williamson( or Ash/Butler If named) and leave myself no money and another risky rookie down back
TD: take a punt on Marshall and bring in Ridley?
My current defence is: Doc, Sicily, Doedee, Starc, Hill, Rivers (Noble, Gould)
i wanted to trade Rowell and Starcevich to Haynes and Yeo but now that rivers has been omitted by doing those tardes i will only have 5 defenders on field. to field 6 in def do i?\
TU: Trade Rowell and Starcevich to Haynes and Mills/Laird/L Ryan
TD: Trade Rowell and Viney to Haynes and Yeo
Trading Rowell and either T.Brown or Noble. Wondering if should look at bringing in some value and get rookies off the field or stick to guns n rookies
Looking at a donut in my backline for the 2nd week in a row thanks to Noble, Brander & Rivers. Replacement will be :
TU: Haynes
TD : Ridley ( extra $ will be handy…)
Will Hamill, Will Day and Andrew McPherson are the only 3 selected this week that are under that price. I’d go with Hamill IMO. If you’ve got a bit more to spend, then Hill or Williamson arent bad choices either
Oops!
Just learnt you cant reverse changes after one game has been played, even if the players you trade in/out havent played yet
Guess im stuck with the 0 XD
Not quite sure what the correct strategy is when it comes to trying to balance winning league games and doing well overall. Is my aim to try and have as many POD players as possible? Or to try and have as many similar players as possible, especially if they’re good players?
For example, I’m tossing between choosing Haynes and Lloyd. My opponent has Haynes but not Lloyd. Should I get Lloyd as a POD player and hope he scores more than Haynes? Or is the best strategy to just get Haynes to get rid of another POD premo?
Or should I not be thinking about that at all and just choose the player who I think will play the best for the rest of the season?
Looking to fill a donut in the backline – Trade in which defender
TU : Haynes
TD: Ridley
I know Ridley is the better choice for the extra $81K but will he keep up his great scoring with McKenna back in the team? But he does get the extra game to play at some stage this season, where I’d get the higher of his 2 scores…..Decisions!
Must be not too quick on the uptake. I decided to trade in Simpkin, then looked at gameday, all my opponents have got him too. Ahh well, we all sink or swim together.
Let it be know that based on brilliant advice from the great SCT comrades, it has been decided to go with Neale over Grundy as captain. (SCTTL)
Let it also be known that if Grundy does score more than Neale, then my outgoing list of Christmas best wishes will be a lot smaller this year.
Ps ATM I still have Gawny as Capt over Neale in the public leagues (with Goldy) based on the theory(?) If Grundy does better, then so will Gawny.
9/10 would go Lloyd, but Father Dougal can be very persuasive! Brought in Haynes and I’m very keen to see how he plays this week. Looked great last week and should feed off the poor forward entries for PA this week. Good luck with whatever you decide 🙂

T/U: Bank the 80k for a future trade and bring in Ridley?

Got 2 avenues to go
TU. Howe + Budarick > Ridley + Aarts. leaves 328k
TD. Howe + Budarick > Lloyd+ Aarts. leaves 202k
Chinese or souvlaki
Comment: both
Keep viney ?
Surely you’ve got bigger problems than Viney?? I’m keeping him for the moment. Think he will average 85-90. He might come out firing after the media attention during the week!

Can simpkin maintain ?
Who to bring in. Which ever I don’t choose I’ll get next week.
TU -yeo
TD – Whitfield
TU Jake Aarts
TD Izaak Rankine
Thanks
Wait and see what Rankine does in his first game before trading him in.
Aarts is about to go up in price and has relatively good JS, take him
Hi all, need some help.
DEF: Doc, Daniel, Sicily, Ridley, Noble, Williamson (S.Hill, Gould)
Mid: Neale, Cripps, Oliver, Bont, Rowell, Starc, Budarick, J. McInerney (Pickett,Rivers, D. Robertson (Lions))
RUC: Gawn, Grundy (Cameron)
FWD: D.Martin, Whitfield, A.Brayshaw, D.Smith, C.Taylor, Mahony (Brander, Rankine.
Available Cash: $49,000, 23 Trades left
Cheers
Wow. Very nice team, JJ.
I’d be a looking at a double downgrade this week.
Brander -> Aarts
McInerny/Bud/Pickett -> MID debutante
What about getting rid of Rowell?? Maybe to someone like Yeo?
I was thinking Yeo or Steele or possibly Luke Parker due to low owenership and would be a great POD for Rowell but I can’t decide
And hold Rowell?
I’d trade out Noble and Rowell and bring in another premo and a rookie.
That should go close to getting you Nick Haynes and an Aarts for example, and swing one of your For/Mids into the midfield. Basically bring in a permo and a rookie from Noble and Rowell.
Rankine is going to play so him and Aart should generate you some cash for the next 5+ rounds and you’ve got a few cows fattening up nicely in the shorter term.
So double downgrade or Premo and rookie (Haynes & Aarts)
Cheers Gra Pal, I’ve done exactly that Rowell & Noble into Haynes & Aarts. Then next week double downgrade with Budarick and someone else
F6 for this week:
TU – Taylor
TD – Sturt
Comment: Aarts
Aarts instead of Taylor & Sturt
Quick one- is Ridley going to finish a top 6 defender?
T/u = yes
T/d = no
Thanks!
Thanks for the feedback guys! Have given him a go!
Rowe to Fyfe? Traded Fyfe out last week but I think he’s going to be the highest scoring mid from here. Just pains me to waste 2 trades on him!
Thumbs up for Fyfe
Thumbs down for someone else (likely Tom Mitchell or Adam Treloar)
Wait a week on Fyfe I reckon. He has a pretty high BE and may cop a tag from Steele. Pick him up when he’s cheaper next week
Exactly.
If Tom Lynch Is out:
Tu: Lynch -> Whitfield
Rowell -> Dangerfield
Td: Tyler Brown / John Noble -> Whitfield
Rowell -> Yeo
Day and Morris to debut for the Hawks.
Rookies all over the place!
TU: Ridley
TD: Hayes
Who to get for Rowell
TU Duncan
TD Steele
Tu Oliver
Have the same query, but for some reason Parker is in my head….. arghhhh
Fuck sake went Duncan…
That really sux Nateo,
In my change of mind to not pick him I forgot to move Starcevich to my depleted backline, didn’t do it so now screwed with 2 dohnuts in the backline, now do I bring in a backline premium instead….not what I wanted to do!!!!’
Last FWD
T.U – Aarts
T.D – Sturt
TU: Upgrade Rowell
TD: Downgrade
TU: Steele
TD: Boak
TU: Mcluggage
TD: Berry
Who to trade out first noble or brander?
Need to trade out Rowell have 605k to spend
TU: Duncan
TD: Steele
Comment: Mccluggage
TU: Mccluggage
TD: Duncan or Steele above
Who to field (with some DPP trickery)…
TU: Max King
TD: Justin McInerney
King and the saints have freo this week so I’ll be loopholing King, but if a loophole isn’t available I’d field him anyway. Plus McInerney isn’t guaranteed to play this week, he is listed on the fringe of an extended sunday squad.
Boys, help!!!
I need to now get rid of Naismith since Xerri got dropped. I also have a donut in the defence. I’m going to have to trade out Rowell and swing Rivers to the mid bench so I can bring in a defender.
Do I:
TU: bring in Gawn and Williamson( or Ash/Butler If named) and leave myself no money and another risky rookie down back
TD: take a punt on Marshall and bring in Ridley?
My current defence is: Doc, Sicily, Doedee, Starc, Hill, Rivers (Noble, Gould)
What about English for a couple weeks? then up to gawn
They were my thoughts with Marshall. Why English?
TU – Steele
TD – Yeo
Comment – Dangerfield
TU – Dangerfield
Have Noble, Rivers & Brander in Def not selected
Will swap-in Whitfield for Rowell with one trade, for second trade…
TU: Aarts in for either Budarick/Georgiades & cop a donut in Def;
TD: Avoid the donut with a lesser rookie
Only adds to my frustration over not getting Young early
going to cop a donut if I dont get rid of Noble. Who are my downgrade options?
sideways to Quaynor if really desperate
Williamson.
Hi All,
Who to field (FWD):
Mahony
Hill (Via DDP)
Rankine
MID:
Budarick or Pickett
Cheers
TU: Mcluggage
TD: Danger
TU: Rowell to Danger
TD : Rowell to Tom Green
Or Mcluggage instead of Danger
i wanted to trade Rowell and Starcevich to Haynes and Yeo but now that rivers has been omitted by doing those tardes i will only have 5 defenders on field. to field 6 in def do i?\
TU: Trade Rowell and Starcevich to Haynes and Mills/Laird/L Ryan
TD: Trade Rowell and Viney to Haynes and Yeo
TU: Yeo
TD: Ridley
Who to field?
T/U: Sturt
T/D: Aarts
Comment: M. King
Hey boys- just can’t decide
Thumbs up – Harley Bennell
Thumps down Jake aarts
Cheers and goodluck
Trading Rowell and either T.Brown or Noble. Wondering if should look at bringing in some value and get rookies off the field or stick to guns n rookies
TU Lloyd + Aarts
TD Yeo + Ryan (pod)/Ridley
TU: Budarick -> Jake Aarts
TD: TBrown -> HBennell
TU: BENNELL
TD: AARTS
Who to trade for Tomlinson?
and I do have Pickett on bench
Rivers out means a donut in defence.
Current backs are,
Docherty, Haynes, Sicily, Laird, Ridley & ?????
Who to I get to finalise my backs
TU – mighty Lloyd.
TD – save money and get another defender but who?
Have to go Rowell to a premium defender to avoid a donut in defense.
Budarick is my only playing rookie who’s set to drop in price. Is Aarts a must have or save the trade and hope Bud hits his BE?
TU – Rowell to Haynes/Lloyd
TD – Rowell to Haynes/Lloyd, Bud to Aarts
Need one of these gone this week
TU: T Brown
TD: Noble
Looking at a donut in my backline for the 2nd week in a row thanks to Noble, Brander & Rivers. Replacement will be :
TU: Haynes
TD : Ridley ( extra $ will be handy…)
With T Brown dropped ( so he won’t lose any money this week) I’m now undecided which of these 2 to trade out,
TU= T Brown
TD= Budarick
Leaning towards T Brown out as at least Budarick is still getting games and has the handy DPP but that BE of 61 is a worry.
Rowell – Yeo and Brander – Hayden Young. Really all i can afford, no good cheap options?
YES
OR
NO
Cheers
Had E on Starcevich with Noble.
Tom Lynch in Fwd with no cover this week
Tu: trade in premo defender to avoid Starcevichs score (risk Tom Lynch giving me a donut) & Rowell to Whitfield
Td: trade Noble via DPP and Rowell to Yeo / Whitfield, avoid Lynch’s potential donut and use Starfishes score
Morning all
TU: Noble – Trac
TD: Noble – Greenwood
Comment: Brown/Noble – Yeo
Went Rowell to Ridley with first trade
take neales 130 odd or gamble on grundy v hawks?
TU: Lock in Neale
TD: Grundy
With Rivers out need to get a def premo to cover zero
TU: Rowell & Brown to Lloyd & Aarts (104k left)
TD: Rowell & Brown to Haynes & Aarts (149k left)
Comment: Rowell & Viney to Haynes & Whitfield (90k odd left)
Cheers!
Are there any good defs under $187k this week?
Otherwise donut thanks to Noble, Brander, and Rivers
Will Hamill, Will Day and Andrew McPherson are the only 3 selected this week that are under that price. I’d go with Hamill IMO. If you’ve got a bit more to spend, then Hill or Williamson arent bad choices either
Same issue for me, MJ.
I’ve gone ahead and grabbed Williamson. Paying a bit extra for rock solid JS.
Oops!
Just learnt you cant reverse changes after one game has been played, even if the players you trade in/out havent played yet
Guess im stuck with the 0 XD
After Starcevich’s mare, I won’t be emergency loopholing him.
Already have Aarts and C Taylor on field.
Who to field?
T/U: Sturt
T/D: M King
Comment: Budarick
Sturt not playing this week, has been replaced by Banfield
Yikes, with Sturt out I have to put either Budarick or Mitch Hibberd onfield
TU Budarick
TD Mitch Hibberd
Whadya think?
Or McInerney instead if he makes the cut?
So who do we think Sutcliffe has come into the team to tag? No shortage of stars to tag from GWS..
J. Kelly or Whitfield- I have both…
Yeah same here. Hopefully they send him to T Greene in his 150th. Would be sure of some fireworks between them two!
Not quite sure what the correct strategy is when it comes to trying to balance winning league games and doing well overall. Is my aim to try and have as many POD players as possible? Or to try and have as many similar players as possible, especially if they’re good players?

“”Or should I not be thinking about that at all and just choose the player who I think will play the best for the rest of the season?””
this is the way to go
Toss a coin or see Dann’s response.
Rowell out for:
TU – Steele
TD – Titch (T.Mitchell)
So glad I didn’t go Duncan last night, was heavily considering him, and that would’ve been a real disaster for me.
Who should I trade in?
U: Aarts – like his job security and played well.
D: Bennell – huge scoring potential but concerned about injuries and being rested.
Thanks.
Louis butler in saved me from copping a donut
Fielding king over aarts due to him playing the dockers
T/U take Neale’s score as VC
T/D Captain Grundy tonight
134 is a great score to bank.
Grundy would need to go huge to justify the risk.
As a POD what about Maynard from Collingwood?
Same ave as Haynes and about the same price, or just go Haynes.
Looking to fill a donut in the backline – Trade in which defender
TU : Haynes
TD: Ridley
I know Ridley is the better choice for the extra $81K but will he keep up his great scoring with McKenna back in the team? But he does get the extra game to play at some stage this season, where I’d get the higher of his 2 scores…..Decisions!
Haynes, or even look at Maynard who hasn’t scored under 100 this season.
Who to trade out?
TU: Brown
TD: Budarick
Who for F6?
TU Budarick v Dees
TD Townsend v Roos
Thanks
Must be not too quick on the uptake. I decided to trade in Simpkin, then looked at gameday, all my opponents have got him too. Ahh well, we all sink or swim together.
Let it be know that based on brilliant advice from the great SCT comrades, it has been decided to go with Neale over Grundy as captain. (SCTTL)
Let it also be known that if Grundy does score more than Neale, then my outgoing list of Christmas best wishes will be a lot smaller this year.
Ps ATM I still have Gawny as Capt over Neale in the public leagues (with Goldy) based on the theory(?) If Grundy does better, then so will Gawny.
T/U – Noble & Rowell to Haynes & Whitfield (no bank left)
T/D – Rowell & Brown to Lloyd & Aarts ($240k bank)
Who to Trade in down back for Pittonet to avoid a donut.
T/U – Haynes
T/D – Jakey Lloyd
9/10 would go Lloyd, but Father Dougal can be very persuasive! Brought in Haynes and I’m very keen to see how he plays this week. Looked great last week and should feed off the poor forward entries for PA this week. Good luck with whatever you decide 🙂
Looking to double downgrade next week so who is the greater priority to bring in this week?
TU: Whitfield
TD: Ridley
Jack Martin or Patrick Lipinski on the field for tomorrow’s game? For a Draft league.
