Leave a comment / Scroll to bottom
Best Rookie to bring in this week:
Tu)Curtis
Rd)Mc Combe
Someone else?
Hewett at 526k.
T/U Trade
T/D Hold
Chillo posted it in Trade Talk, but posting here for greater reach.
Depends on what NOD scores tonight, personally
Shit… I totally did not realise there were two games tonight!
I missed that as well. There goes my Xerri and JHF trades. FFS!
I’m already bringing In Curtis. But I need to bring in one of these two below. Unlike most teams I’m leaning towards Carroll. I think he has better js. He can play wing or HF and looks to use it well. Blues don’t really have anyone who’s locked in for that spot. Obrien, Setterfield, Cottrell, Newnes etc. They’re all in and out.
TU Carroll
TD Mccomb
TU: Cash in both MacDonald & Rachele for McComb & Curtis
TD: Hold Rachele as a warm body
I’m finding more and more teams are not far from being almost clones. This week the team I’m fielding and my opposing side have an indentical side apart from four players. So it makes me reluctant now to follow the trend and get in Parker. Thinking along the lines of D Moore at the Hawks. Am I over reacting or are others facing the same scenario?
A reverse POD can hurt just as much as a low ownership player popping off is a boon.
Who should feature in this week’s captain choices.
Selecting Neale.
So who else.
TU-macrae
TD-gawn
VC Neale into Gawn for me using Hewett as potential loophole. Thanks for the great write up
What’s the latest on Hewett
Rumours are he’s not back til Rd10?
If that’s the case what’s everybody’s plans.
TU: trade
TD: sit tight
JHF/Daicos/Durdin > Gawn/MComb/ Curtis
TU: Yeah
TD: Nar
TU – Keep NOD/JHF
TD – Trade them to Parker/McComb
Anyone got any ideas on Stradanica?
Team released at 5.30. You will know then.
There are only 20 AFL players available plus players from WAFL to make up the numbers for a team.
Anxious moments for any coach with WCE players.
I’m worried about Brisbane possibly resting players as well.
This would be the perfect time if any senior players have any niggles.
Let’s hope for the best.
Not sure they will … just saw on the news that Fagan said that he has changed it up a bit this week with Weagles decimated and allowed the senior players to run the sessions and draw up the game plan for this week … “to allow them more involvement and to change things up …” …
If that’s the case, then you can bet the players involved will be raring to show how well their plan works!!
Well thats positive news.
Maybe they will do the old switcheroo and play the defenders Forward!
I have heard he is playing the COVID positive for him apparently was incorrect.
I’m looking to bring him in
Thoughts? ( taking that he gets named )
Out with OH&S Protocols
Daicos/Rachele/JHayes > McComb/Curtis/ Mills
Or
Dixon/ Rachele/ JHayes > McComb/ Curtis/ Parker
Already have Steele, Macrae, Neale, Oliver and Cripps. Who is the best mid to bring in this week?
T/up – Miller
T/down – Green
Comment – Someone else like Brayshaw
MACRAE – the last 2 weeks of sub 100’s had me thinking to avoid him as VC this week, but with Bontempelli being rested, does that mean that Macrae reverts back to the 100+ scorer that we prefer and a viable VC choice in tonight’s game?
TU – Yes
TD – No
yeah I’m wondering the same Lisa – not sure what the go was last week – he seemed “off” and was also left on the bench for long stretches … it looked like they were letting McComb have a large amount of time doing what he normally does … so something to watch / consider …
Thoughts on Luke McDonald? Take out his 28 vs Bris he averages 100. 420k with a BE of 45.
Bring in:
TU – Crisp
TD – Pendles
Looking at removing a rookie from the field
TU: Trade in Parker this week OR
TD: Trade in English next week
T/U JHF to McComb
T/D Hold
Had a big bank to go Rachele to Parker already
Who to Trade Out?
TU: Windhager
TD: Gollant
VC:
TU: JacMac
TD: Touk
Who to bring in this week;
Tu; MCOMB
Td; STRANDICA
Keeping in mind next week there could be Rioli and caroll on the bubble. If I don’t get Strandica now I may have to make 3 downgrades next week :/
Who for VC?
TU- Brayshaw
TD- Dunkley
TU – OPTION 1 – 2 trades – OUT : Rachele & JHF – IN: McComb & Parker (4 rookies left to upgrade & onfield ) $41k ITB
TD – OPTION 2 – 1 trade – OUT : Rachele – IN – McComb (5 onfield rookies left to upgrade & onfield) $249k ITB
Comes down to Parker this week, or another premium next week. Rachele & JHF are the only rookies I’m prepared to cash in this week. But thinking JHF isn’t a must trade this week.
with Hewitt likely to return in R10 and Carlton having a bye round 12 it means he has two games in the next 5…
Apart from the loss of points the opportunity to grab other fallen premiums may be lost…
TU: Keep
TD: Trade
Rachele to McComb – trade is a lock
Currently used the cash to take Daicos up to Parker.
T/UP – leave as is
T/Down / Cripps in over Parker
Note taking Parker as a POD in a cash league – not fuss about ranking but 10/12 have Cripps already in this league.
Cheers
Thoughts on bringing in Steel this week. Will he cop a tag from viney ?
Had the VC on Brayshaw and want to take his score, however only loop option is Dixon (ruck) who plays after both of my current rucks in Sam Hayes and Witts. If Dixon ends up as a late in or sub I will lose Dixon’s score. Does anyone have any word on this or should I just stick with Neale as C?
Dixon is an emergency, so it is a risk…
Most people will have Neal as captain this week, for a good reason. Could be a game time decision, watch closely until just before first bounce and if he’s not in make the change.
Who do I trade out, Mcartin or Hinge? Mcartin (if he stays healthy) will play ever week and provide a reliable 60-70, where as Hinge has more upside but may not play regularly.
TU: Trade Mcartin
TD: Trade Hinge
Cheers
with hewett being back round 10 is it a trade out?
TU trade out
TD hold
No mention of Hewett being out till round 10 , Voss saying will be a test on Tuesday but must train up till than
⬆️ Take NOD 61
⬇️ Field Hinge
Cheers!
TU: Captain Neale
TD: Loophole Brayshaw 134
Am I hearing news that Ridley is a potential out?
That’s going to stuff me up , weres the info coming from Finn , I need to find out if his out before GWS and Cats game
I’ve heard it on Facebook by quite a few people might be fake tho but apparently there’s a virus sweeping through the Essendon camp
Thanks for the heads up Finn concerning Ridley
Who to captain
Neale
Gawn
Deciding whether to takes Neales 122 as VC.
Currently situation:
Oppo has Rachelle and is 319 points ahead (VC’d loopholed Brayshaw. Also has Gawn)
I have Steele, Oliver and Bowey and option of Gawn or Oliver as C
Thoughts?
TU: Take Neales 123. The boys will get it done.
TD: throw the big C on Gawn
Some back-of-napkin guesstimates:
Opponent: 319 + 61 (Rachele) = 380.
You: 80 (Bowey) + 125 (Steele) + 125 (Oliver) = 330.
I’m proposing a trade in my Draft League. Who should I be targeting ?
TU: Andy Brayshaw
TD: Jack Macrae
