TD: Danger
Comment: other (Libba, Bradshaw, Petracca)
These constant injuries are killing me….
Any suggestions very welcome for a mid-priced MID ??
I was thinking of Prestia prior to him being ruled out again. pls help.
Bailey Smith might have a run of form if he stays in the midfield
Depends what your budget is. Matt Rowell has got 3 games under his belt now and is the same price as Prestia. I don’t like the pick, but it depends how desperate you are.
Rory Sloane just announced that he is delaying finger surgery until end of the season. He is probably your best bet.
Tim Kelly will be around 400-410k next week if you can wait with a BE of 188 this week.
Gaff similar ^
Have Rowell as M commented as well @406k which if he can find form will be a nice grab.
LDU probably the only other option I’d look at. Has turned a corner this last month and could click into another gear for the run home.
Taylor Adams
7 trades left
TU – Impey & Weightman > Danger & nuff (but have to keep Cripps as M8 all year)
TD – Impey & Cripps > Danger & Haynes
What’s everyone doing with Neale?
Can go straight to Adams and fund CCJ -> Grundy by binning him…
Wishfully hoping he’s fine, that’s what I’m doing lol.
“Not officially ruled out”, I keep telling myself.
Assuming he is out (sigh), if you have the trades then yeah: use the opportunity to get Grundy back in.
Here’s to hoping GD.
I do prefer the advanced warning of carnage as opposed to the scrambling of trades last minute with Impey last week…..
Yeah, I thought we were geniuses after the 156 C v North lol – now watch them f*ck with us.
Still name him, late out, some sh*t like that.
T/U Stringer
T/D I. Smith
Some shitty trade choices (first year at this) has left me with the limited options this week.
Who to play?
TU: Madden, Bianco, Poulter
TD: Bianco, Poulter, Coleman Jones
Madden won’t play, out injured.
James Madden : hand- “He’s had the operation, it went well, and it should only hold him out for one to two weeks.” Damien Austin, Brisbane HP Manager.
Assuming Neale not named
TU: Neale and Impey for Keays and Danger
TD: Neale for Merrett (Impey and CCJ out next week for 1 up, 1 down)
How many trades remaining Doc?
7
TU: Poulter>Sharp
TD: Poulter>Sharp and Weightman>Danger
TU – Danger + $6,800 ITB
TD – Dale + $25,400 ITB
Three trades left and only F6 needing upgrading so didn’t want to do anything but with CCJ stinking it up I’ll only have 430ish next week for a forward so:
TU: hold and hope an option presents at the price next week
TD: Trade Treacy and Robertson to Danger and Bramble to get to full premo this week but only one trade left
So, it’s 1 trade for a 430k FWD or 2 for Danger? Is that right?
If so, I’d take a cheap FWD and keep two injury trades.
Yeah, exactly. And it’s the only spot left. Fortunately I was looping CCJ so won’t actually be taking his score and have Treacy at F6 instead. Shai should drop to my price range in another week so I’ll probably just be patient and save the other 2 trades. Thanks GD
F6 = Phillips to
TU – Danger
TD – Sidey
Who to vice tonight
TU: T.Stewart
TD: Zerrett
Mini poll folks…
TU. Walsh (with the Serong shadow possible)
TD. Mills (leaving Lairdy in the guts, can move him back next week)
Have 200k in bank seriously considering Patrick Cripps to Walsh. Only 100k more and averaging nearly 30 pts more. 6 trades left so acknowledge it is a luxury trade.
TU do it, 30 pts extra per game to good to ignore
TD don’t, Cripps will come good
Team it is full promo except for 3 forwards l need , will aim for danger, Toby green and probably keep Robertson as F 6. Alternatively I could replace Cripps for laird and bring Whitfield in. Would this be better
TU Whitfield
TD Walsh
