hey guys are a little help, i have $635k to upgrade another rookie mid to premo
I have steele,oliver,mccrae,neale,cripps, tossing up between walsh and laird, unless there is somelese else you might think has a better run like Merrett?
Don’t think you can go too far wrong with any of the above 5 guys, and I always worry that player injuries are treated far more conservatively in the bottom sides as the year goes on.
Butters, Dunkley, Daniel, Treloar & Ryan, supposed “premos”, and not one of them cracked 80. JHF & NOD on field to boot.
Brodie the only shining light.
It’s going to be another painful weekend.
1997/19/Neale
Got greedy and went Neale instead of taking JMac @ 144. Twenty-one points lost there
Projected 2363 is pretty good.
Steele, Oliver and Cripps to come.
Just Steele, Cripps and Clarry to come. Might be taking a tumble down the rankings this week but it was always going to be hard when missing Witherden and Hewett but I think all of the defence rookies have done ok for me
1600/16/Neale
Not a good week as I had Witherden and Hewett on my defence bench. A part from the scores from Butters and Dunkley everyone got, I was hit with 60 from Mills ,and I fielded Ward expecting him to regain his preseason form after a good rest. Some weeks you win, some you lose, and this week I am expected to lose some ground but that’s ok. Good luck everyone
Hoping for a “Happy Mother’s Day” score today with Steele, Oliver and Cripps to come. Was very relieved that Dixon wasn’t a late in, as he was my Captain to enable me to use Macrae’s VC score. With Bont out, figured he was worth the VC after the last 2 weeks of disappointing scores. Back up plan if Dixon came in, was use Long as Captain but that would have meant benching N Martin which wasn’t ideal, so glad it didn’t come to that. McCartins emergency score was handy.
Underwhelming scores for several “premiums” Dunks, Butters, Cogs and especially new recruit Stewart (has his lowest score of the year after I bring him in and gets outscored by SDK grrrrrr) but had serviceable contributions from the likes of Whit, Lipinski, Rowell, baby Daicos and Martin with great scores from Touk, Sic, Neale, Witts, Brodie, Short and Preuss
Have a few very close match ups today with Sinclair, Oliver, Walsh and Laird to come – will come down to whether Gawn and Steele go large or not (being a non-owner since R2/3, I expect them to continue punishing me)!
Both Hewett (used for loophole) and Ridley are out and I have both E’s on Hinge & SDK for D coverage – will I score for 22 players or 21?
T/U 22
T/D 21 (no Hinge score)
Reason why I am asking is because SC has said my score is finalised from 21 players but I have 9 on the bench & expecting to pick up Hinge’s score – will it correct after start of game 9?
912/7/Darcy
Massive games from new recruit Darcy, Brayshaw & Macrae. Let down by Butters’ low score of 52.
389/4/Neale (VC Macrae)
Do I roll the dice???
637/5/Macrae via loophole
Projected 2420
Will Brodie 37 touches in just 67% game time wowee, what a star. Thanks for the memories Butters…
Butters with North next week will make things interesting.
1038/8/Darcy vc
723/6/macrae vc
Happy overall but disappointing from
Butters and dunks. Really wanted to go with short or neale as cap but cant pass up 144.
TU: Take O’driscolls 61
TD: Field Rachelle

Depends who fits in with your byes.
Have you considered Miller?
Sorry I already have miller as well forgot to add him in.
my byes are pretty well spread tbh
I’m considering pertracca now as well
You already have 6 x huge MID guns – so that’s a great start 🙂
For M7 and M8, if you have the funds I would tend to go for guns that are in “top 10 on the ladder” sides – for example:
Mills
Brayshaw (Frem)
Petracca
Walsh
Bont (surely WB finish top 10)
Don’t think you can go too far wrong with any of the above 5 guys, and I always worry that player injuries are treated far more conservatively in the bottom sides as the year goes on.
Good luck with your decision!!
690/7/Short VC
Chapman 136 making up for Butters and Dunkley.
581/8
Butters, Dunkley, Daniel, Treloar & Ryan, supposed “premos”, and not one of them cracked 80. JHF & NOD on field to boot.
Brodie the only shining light.
It’s going to be another painful weekend.
548/5
My opp put the C on Erasmus with Macrae VC as he was on 100 odd at half time, Erasmus subbed in with 15 to go in the last… ouch mate
Also,
TU take NOD’s 61 or
TD field McCartin?
Thanks!
1824/18/Neale
Copped Butters and Rosas and then Ridley late out meant Thompson’s 38 had to come on field – was already covering Hewett as well.
Everyone else been good though.
Satan, Steele, Cripps and ROB to close it out tomorrow.
1997/19/Neale
Got greedy and went Neale instead of taking JMac @ 144. Twenty-one points lost there
Projected 2363 is pretty good.
Steele, Oliver and Cripps to come.
What is your cutoff for a VC score? I would have thought anything over 130-135 would be automatic.
1,688 from 17 – Oliver, L. Jackson, Dawson, Cripps, and ROB to come.
Thoughts on who to captain?
TU: Oliver.
TD: Cripps.
Comment: ROB vs Carlton (missing their #1 ruck).
(from above post)
TU: ROB
1884/19/Neale
Just Steele, Cripps and Clarry to come. Might be taking a tumble down the rankings this week but it was always going to be hard when missing Witherden and Hewett but I think all of the defence rookies have done ok for me
2083/20/Neale
Steele & Oliver to go
Got greedy should have taken Brayshaws 134 but thought Lochie would go bang
Projected 2340 would be happy with anything over 2300
1600/16/Neale
Not a good week as I had Witherden and Hewett on my defence bench. A part from the scores from Butters and Dunkley everyone got, I was hit with 60 from Mills ,and I fielded Ward expecting him to regain his preseason form after a good rest.

2068/Neale (C)
Projected to 2381 with Bowey, Oliver, and Cripps to come. Happy with anything over 2300.
Happy Mums Day
Quick question;
Both Hewett (used for loophole) and Ridley are out and I have both E’s on Hinge & SDK for D coverage – will I score for 22 players or 21?
T/U 22
T/D 21 (no Hinge score)
Reason why I am asking is because SC has said my score is finalised from 21 players but I have 9 on the bench & expecting to pick up Hinge’s score – will it correct after start of game 9?
