I think I would still prefer having Grundy as R2 and sweet as R3 on the bench making money. I just think trading Grundy to Sweet is a bit risky and relying on Sweet as R2
TU: Xerri- Sweet (R2), Williams – Zerrett, Powell- Serong
Means running with Sweet for next 4 – 5 weeks at R2 then targeting English at a higher price.
TD – Xerri – English, Williams – Zerrett/Serong, Powell – Sweet (R3)
Sweet sits on the bench making money and get English at his cheapest price.
Looking at norffs ins & outs this weekend powell should be back into that midfield and CBAs. 2 midfielders and a winger out and bought two forwards in helps Powell’s role.
Adelaide are the 4th hardest team to score against for a ruckman so far this season. O’Brien wins 50% of his hit-outs with 11 going to advantage on average this season. One of best all season.
A good score tonight should mean his is capable of playing against rucks that concede a lot more
putting him at R2 is my plan. was always going to upgrade Grundy to English.
Doing Grundy to Sweet now, and Sweet to English in 4-5 weeks will be only 2 trades, this will save a trade, instead of trading Sweet in then out and still having to upgrade Grundy to English being 3 trades..
it also gives you an extra ‘premo’ score on field for the next 4-5 weeks instead of Sweet’s score on the bench.
Loop for tonight, if Sweet has a sub 60, might think of holding Grundy one more week and hope Garcia or Nyuon can do better than 60 this week
Was planning this week going Dempsey, Sharp, D’Ambrossio > Sweet (via DPP), Rogers, T.Green, $197,100 ITB
But the LDU news has me a little worried, should I do Sharp & D’Ambrossio > Sweet (via DPP) & T.Green, I will have $47,300 ITB or continue on with the original plan.
Sexton named on extended bench third week in a row – I still have him on my bench. He’s worth $182,800 with a BE of -5.
Nyuon omitted this week, and not even as emergency. Also on my bench. He’s worth $174,300 with a BE of +8.
One is being traded this week. The other remains my F7/F8.
TU : Trade out Sexton
TD: Trade out Nyuon.
Azza I had the same dilemma and traded out Sexton. Just because Clarko loves Biggy. He said earlier the kid has huge potential. And with the continuing injuries in North, he will give him more chances even though he is a crap AFL player bcoz he is still building his team .
Sexton on the other end has been very good preseason, was tearing it down their VFL, is an experienced AFL player, yet stuck in emergency land. Dimma gave him the role and the chance early in the season but dropped him bcoz he is not convinced . GCS are winning, without him, Dimma is happy to bleed in the kids . Trimming as he goes as He is eying the finals.
Having said that, it’s a 50/50 decision and unless you’re a very patient player, we just need to take the 60-80k profit and move on.
I would prefer Bont because they share the same bye. I’m seeing a lot of preferred targets with the round 14 bye which is annoying.
Bont has likely bottomed out from his original price and should be a point gain. Don’t see much gain from Stewart
I’m sure this will be a very popular question but really torn on whether to hold Grundy or take sweets score and trade. Thinking bulk stoppages could help grundy in the wet.
Depends who you would be fielding in place of Sweet in your fwd line. If a real dud or even potentially a donut then R2 for Sweet is a better play. But if you have a Darcy Wilson on bench that can go F6 then keep grundy
Yeah it’s a tough call. I decided to keep Grundy this week. His 3 game average at the SCG is 132. Merrett is hopefully capped at the current price. Next Friday there’s half of footy to see how Sweet is going and can revisit the Grundy trade.
Is trading out D’Ambrosia for B Dale worth a trade (and a boost) or a bit too sideways? Thinking I would rather save the boost and money for a better upgrade next week….
Boosts are there to be used Brian, the way I’m looking at Dale is that he is not going to be top 6. There is currently are clear Top 8 who we should be picking from. However, he. is very good value and by getting him it will allow yourself to upgrade your mids or rucks.
I pondered the exact same scenario in the St Kilda/Roos clash chat. Huge risk – in case of a late mid premo out or McAuliffe (listed as emergency) being a late in. Still tempting.
Having Fyfe as sub after he returned to his glory days last week is a disgrace. I assume he’s not injured or he wouldn’t play at all.
The sub rule and stupid coaches make Supercoach a lottery and nearly enough to give up the game
I think I would still prefer having Grundy as R2 and sweet as R3 on the bench making money. I just think trading Grundy to Sweet is a bit risky and relying on Sweet as R2
I don’t see Sweet as a long term ruck but a step up to Tingles
To trade in this week?
TU – Rowell
TD – Serong
T/U – Cadman & D’mbrosio for Rowell and Rogers
T/D – Cadman, D’mbrosio & Powell for Bont, Dale and Rogers
TU: Xerri- Sweet (R2), Williams – Zerrett, Powell- Serong
Means running with Sweet for next 4 – 5 weeks at R2 then targeting English at a higher price.
TD – Xerri – English, Williams – Zerrett/Serong, Powell – Sweet (R3)
Sweet sits on the bench making money and get English at his cheapest price.
Is Tom Powell a definite trade out?
T/u – Yes
T/d – No
Looking at norffs ins & outs this weekend powell should be back into that midfield and CBAs. 2 midfielders and a winger out and bought two forwards in helps Powell’s role.
Trading in Sweet
TU: R2 take points and cash
TD: R3 take cash only
Assuming your current R2 is Grundy, Marshall or Xerri
Can you loop him R3 for tonight and then decide?
Was planning my to loop Jim tonight. It’s just whether the we trust him at R2 for the other 3-4 games
Adelaide are the 4th hardest team to score against for a ruckman so far this season. O’Brien wins 50% of his hit-outs with 11 going to advantage on average this season. One of best all season.
A good score tonight should mean his is capable of playing against rucks that concede a lot more
Awesome info – thanks for sharing

Loop for tonight, if Sweet has a sub 60, might think of holding Grundy one more week and hope Garcia or Nyuon can do better than 60 this week
how do you loop Sweet and hold Grundy at the same time?
Jack Steele?
T/U – keep, he’ll come good.
T/D – go sideways to Bont as Jack is cooked and has done his job.
I Need to pay up big for either one of these 2 players so?
Heeney
Or
Merrett
Not sure who you have at M8 or F6.
Getting Heeney will mean getting to taking a Garcia/Nyuon/cadman type off field.
Where getting Merrett might means putting a Graham/Roberts/Chohey on bench.
Will the difference between say Heeney and Garcia, be more than the difference between Merrett and Graham?
I have Meet at R2 who is scoring well and has more money to take and Naismith at R3 who is also looking like will make money as a slow burn.
Worth trading either of them for Sweet?
And if so:
T/U Meek
T/D Naismith
thanks all?

VC:

Cheers!
1 boost remaining which I’m looking at using this week. I have the Jack Steele conundrum. 2 options I’m weighing up:
TU: Powell, Darcy, Lazzaro > Merrett, Sweet, Rogers
TD: Steele, Powell, Roberts > Merrett, Serong, Sweet
Does Phillips being omitted mean leave Powell and see what happens?
Sexton named on extended bench third week in a row – I still have him on my bench. He’s worth $182,800 with a BE of -5.
Nyuon omitted this week, and not even as emergency. Also on my bench. He’s worth $174,300 with a BE of +8.

Essendon going to try tag yeo?
Tu- yes
Td- no
They’ve been using Caldwell a bit lately as a tagged haven’t they
TU: Garcia
TD: rogers
T/U – Option 1: 60k Bank
– Take Sweet’s 74
– Grundy -> Merrett
– Hore -> Rogers
T/D – Option 2: 17k Bank
– Leave Sweet R3
– Williams -> Merrett
– Dempsey -> R. Garcia
Ranked inside the top 100
Concerns with Jack Steele and his past scores whilst carrying an injury of some sort..
Tu; Hold him
Td; Move him on now at 600k
Not far behind you and I have the same decision. Owned Steele last year when he had knee issues and held which was a disaster. Im going to Serong.
Yeah I’m really struggling to make a decision. Is the safe call just to flick him to another premo?
Mind you I also already have most of the big gun mids, is it worth trading Steele to Stewart and banking the 60 odd grand?
If you go that plan it is almost better to wait a week since Saints are playing North. Both will drop cash unless Stewart scores 140+
The only issue is if Steele puts out another 70/80 then he will drop about 50k. Not ideal at all..
What if you were trading him to Bont?
I would prefer Bont because they share the same bye. I’m seeing a lot of preferred targets with the round 14 bye which is annoying.
Bont has likely bottomed out from his original price and should be a point gain. Don’t see much gain from Stewart
Powell to Dale
Williams to Mckercher
Traded Fisher to Macrae a week ago and he looked pretty ordinary and now he is the sub
TU – trade him
TD – hold
How do you know Macrae is the Sub ?
As far as I know, Macrae is only listed on the 8 interchange bench at the moment
Thanks.
The account on X is a fake.
Totally disregard the misinformation.
Only trust reputable sources.
Sweet sitting at R3 and not emergency sadly
T/U: Hold Marshall
T/D: Marshall -> English
Or comment: Marshall to Rowell/Serong and cop a donut this week but sweet becomes r2 next week
Marshall -> Rowell/Serong/Ryan
TU – dale
TD – LDU
I’m sure this will be a very popular question but really torn on whether to hold Grundy or take sweets score and trade. Thinking bulk stoppages could help grundy in the wet.
TU: Trade Grundy – Serong, thus taking sweets 71
TD: Hold and back grundy in, reassess next week
FYI holding Grundy means fielding Wilson for the week
Is the choice
TU: Sweet + Serong
TD: Grundy + Wilson
?
TU: Grundy to Merrett, Take Sweet score 74
TD: Keep Grundy at R2
Depends who you would be fielding in place of Sweet in your fwd line. If a real dud or even potentially a donut then R2 for Sweet is a better play. But if you have a Darcy Wilson on bench that can go F6 then keep grundy
Yeah it’s a tough call. I decided to keep Grundy this week. His 3 game average at the SCG is 132. Merrett is hopefully capped at the current price. Next Friday there’s half of footy to see how Sweet is going and can revisit the Grundy trade.
Traded in Macrae last week, and assuming he’ll be the sub this week. Already traded in Dawson and Sweet this week.
TU: Use a boost and trade Macrae to Harry McKay
TD: Hold for this week and field Darcy Wilson
Comment: Use a boost and trade Macrae to Dylan Moore
Trade Macrae to Dylan Moore
Get Harry he’s averaging 100 without kicking many goals.
Looking to grab Dale
who to trade?
TU: d’ambrosio
TD: powell
TU – McKercher
TD – Rogers (100k)
Thanks everyone.
Is trading out D’Ambrosia for B Dale worth a trade (and a boost) or a bit too sideways? Thinking I would rather save the boost and money for a better upgrade next week….
TU: Do the trade
TD: Save the trade (and boost)
Boosts are there to be used Brian, the way I’m looking at Dale is that he is not going to be top 6. There is currently are clear Top 8 who we should be picking from. However, he. is very good value and by getting him it will allow yourself to upgrade your mids or rucks.
Decided against it due to the Bevo factor.
TU – Powell -> Dale
TD – Hore -> Rogers
Worth trading Roberts a week or two early to get N.Martin?
I say yes he’s going within 2 weeks anyway I’ve gone roberts to b dale and have to many round 12
Who gets traded out for Zerrett
TU: T. Powell
TD: Z. Williams
Which is better of two trades to make (after Dempsey to Serong which ive locked in)
Tu: Steele to Merrett, $155k inb, hold Powell
Td: Powell to Touk, $17k inb, hold steele.
Have 3 boosts left (including this week) so not fussed using another next week to generate cash if needed
Pros and cons to garcia and Rogers? Besides the bevo factor! I cannot decide.
TU: Trade Biggie
TD: Trade Dempsey
TU: Rogers in and field Darcy Wilson on fwd line
TD: Garcia in and field Riley Garcia on fwd line
TU: Serong + 20k
TD: Naicos + 50k
Who to trade?
TU: Cadman
TD: Nyuon
Having second thoughts about Powell
TU: Trade Powell
TD: Trade Dempsey
I need to play one of these as well so whoever will score more important as well.
Steele to Serong. Would need to use my 4th boost though. But midfield is then SET.
TU: Trade to Serong
TD: Don’t. Save that boost.
TU:
Hore – garcia
Sexton – sweet
Marshall – yeo
TD:
Powell – sweet
Marshall – yeo
Bonner – tousk
Should i be axing Powell Marshall & bonner or getting out dead rookies?
Tu: noahh Anderson
Td: touk miller
Is it worth boosting to get
Hore -> garcia/Rogers?
Hores not returning anytime soon.
Tu: Garcia
TD: rogers
TU: Hogan to Touk (Field Wilson)
TD: Grundy to Merrett (Field Sweet +55k)
Got boosts to use/ first two trades are Grundy & Cadman to Sweet & Serong
Third trade
T/U – Lazzaro to Rogers. Leaves me enough to double upgrade next week
T/D – Berry to Anderson. Helps the team but unsure of whether he’s top 10 mid
Thumb up : Touk miller
Thumb down : elliot yeo
TU:
Bonner -> garcia
Marshall -> Yeo/merrett/touk/rowell
Sexton -> sweet
$220ish in bank for next week
TD:
Marshall -> touk
Sexton -> sweet
$11k in bank but save a boost
Throw VC on???
TU Tom Greene
TD Heeney
TU – Take Butters 124 VC score
TD – Go with Gawny?
Normally 124 you would take without blinking but Gawny could go huge?
Is one of touk or yeo for defence better value than merrett and rowell at his price? Can’t decide if to pay up. The 40-60k may be handy next week.
Current Def is:
Daicos, sheezel, Houston, Roberts, Howes, McKercher (Reid Hore)
Current midfield is:
Bont, Green, Serong, Steele, Rozee, Dawson, Bonner* Graham (Clohesy Wilson HGarcia)
I think I really want yeo to bolster that defence. But I worry about his body and high price. Appreciate all comments and advice
*Bonner is the one making way
Who for Capt?
TU- Sheezel
TD- Gawn
TU:
Bonner -> garcia
Marshall -> Yeo/merrett/touk/rowell
Sexton -> sweet
$220ish in bank for next week
TD:
Marshall -> touk
Sexton -> sweet
$11k in bank but save a boost
TU: rogers
TD: garcia
Torn on who to trade Powell to:
TU: Serong
TD: Dale (bank $167k)
Also, do I trade Dempsey to:
TU: Naismith (allows me to use cadman’s score as he’s my emergency, would swing Livingston forward)
TD: Rogers
VC Green was a flop. Who gets the C?
TU: Bont
TD: Serong
Trade in:
TU: Serong
TD: Yeo
TU: Take Merretts 121
TD: Leave Rowell as Capt
Lots of potential captain scores are quite low this weekend.. take the 121 I reckon
Is there any merit in bringing in someone like a mcaullife to take Wilson’s score?
TU: Bring in Mcaullife to take the 125
TD: Stick with Graham
I pondered the exact same scenario in the St Kilda/Roos clash chat. Huge risk – in case of a late mid premo out or McAuliffe (listed as emergency) being a late in. Still tempting.
The risk is does McAuliffe ever get a 3rd game. He plays first today and can easily see if he is sub or not
Fyfe named as sub
Tu: take the hit and keep him
TD: trade out as he might be sore for longer than one game
Who to Field?
TU clohesy
TD Graham
Thanks love you all
Fyfe been subbed, do I
TU: Leave Fyfe on field in case he’s gets subbed on early
TD: Put Campbell on field
Having Fyfe as sub after he returned to his glory days last week is a disgrace. I assume he’s not injured or he wouldn’t play at all.
The sub rule and stupid coaches make Supercoach a lottery and nearly enough to give up the game
