Draper to Perez via B.Williams (WCE)
Nic Nat to Gawn
Aarts to Brayshaw (Freo)
Operation Gawn begins
Grundy to Gawn costs less than 100k. No brainer if you’re going for overall or need to win your semi this week.
But who’s your R2 in that scenario?
Adams -> Fyfe
Wicks -> Ridley via Ruscoe
Close -> Rookie
Draper and Riccardi to go the week after.
Need help choosing my final defence premo. I was going to make the trade last round but couldnt risk using an extra trade after moving on Kelly. Unfortunately both my options popped off while I copped a donut with Day being managed. They’re both basically identical in price and average.
T/U: Ridley
T/D: Haynes
Who benefits more from their draw? Ridley, who will have the ball in the defence a lot more often, although is likely to be in a losing team a lot?
Or Haynes, who wont see the ball as much but will more often than not be in a winning side with more SC points?
What to do with Josh Kelly?
TU: Trade, he’ll miss this week
TD: Hold, he will play this week
If you held him this week you have to hold him, Cameron seemed very confident he’d play this one
Tu; goldy to gawn
Td; grundy to gawn
Keeping in mind I am playing for leagues and have the week off this week.
Who goes?
Tu; grundy
Td; goldy
yeah, if playing Leagues and you need the win, then probably Grundy … but then again, assess your other players on field … if you think 18 of them score around 100 , maybe Goldie is the better choice to drop … he’s not getting good scores by CD and lets face it, Norths are terrible.
Grundy is also not playing / scoring as well this year. You have to then think of making the GF … and who is the better second ruck to have … R17 – Goldie against Freo and Grundy against Wicks and Suns … who would you rather have in that match up??
MAKIIIIII!!!!!!! My actual blood younger brother since when do you play SuperCoach !!!!!!!
T/U: NicNat to Gawn
T/D: Grundy to Gawn
Botswana. In the last 3 games, they both averaged around 105. I would think that Nic Nat will get more tap to advantage but have more chance being rested, Grundy on the other hand playing in a depleted pies team likely to lose few more games.
I will personally go strategic. Grundy has more Ownership (68% vs 23%) so If he goes big and you dont have him , it will hurt you.
NicNat might get rested but Grundy has his bye this week, so he will for sure miss one more game for the year.
Best forward/mid under 455k?
My candidates are JPK, Toby Greene, Walters.
Any suggestions?
Dixon
Of those 3, JPK.
4 trades left, Rankine my last rookie upgrade and almost nothing in the bank $2.9k. I have Shuey and think he needs to be turned into a gun.
T/U – Shuey and Close to Steele and $100k rookie. 2 trades left to upgrade Rankine.
T/D – Shuey, Nic Nat and Close to Gawn, mid under $530k, and $100k rookie, roll with Rankine at F6, one trade left in case of emergency.
Should I look at value, instead of Steele, to free up some more cash? Is it more important to get Gawn than upgrade Rankine?
Who to trade out
Rivers or Ben Mckay to get premo defender
TU: Rivers
TD: Mckay
Last prem Defender
TU: C.Daniels
TD: B.Sheppard
Sell Draper this rd
Tu: no still can make money
Td: trade him out
Anybody have news about A.Witherden? I know he was omitted this week just gone but is he likely to return this week or will he likely be out for the year?
I need to know as well. Might turn him into Cerra or Shephard if out but didn’t want to trade
Only way Witherden gets back in is if injury happens to Birchall / Rich / Answerth
So I’m looking for a 102k loophole but am at a bit of a loss because the AFL haven’t released the round 18 fixture – are they waiting until after round 17 to do so?
Yep – they’ll leave a game that’s still going to shape the finals til last. Maybe Saints v Giants will be the last game of the round? Could also be Port/Pies or Dees/Dons although one of those teams will probably be out of contention by then.
Three trades left, playing for league. Elimination final this week.
Gawn and Grundy as my rucks (Draper R3) , with one rookie on field (Riccardi / Mosquito)
TU: Stick to the plan, get Gawn back in (who my opponent has)
TD: Get full premo – F6 ~$430k
Greene as F6 would be the move
Just realised I stuffed up! Goldy and Grundy are my rucks atm.
Someone answered Grundy / Goldy trade out so I’ll let this be!
All premium team except Draper at R2 and 5 trades left – Gawn’s next 3 looks very good for him so I’m thinking of getting him in this week
Day – H.Brayshaw 102k (Via Rivers – Def bench Rivers/Sholl)
Bell – Coleman
Draper – Gawn
TU – Good Trades
TD – Wait a week possibly with best 18 in play / think again
Playing for Leaugue, elim final…. 4 trades left
Should I go Dusty to JPK?
Gives me 20 on the field
Gaff? Duncan? Touk Miller?
Elimination final. 5 trades. 300,00 cash. Still have Rankine and Riccardi on field in Fwd line.
Backline all premo but…
Was thinking of trading Zac Williams to Haynes for a boost in score.
TU – Good trade
TD – Sideways trade…waste
Going full premo, semi final in leagues
Wicks > Coleman
Serong > Neale
Grundy > Gawn
TU: good
TD: bad
Playing for league
Tu
Draper>Gawn
Close>K coleman
Leaves wicks and x o’neill/coleman in mid. Grundy donut.
Get a JPK type mid next week
Td
Close>coleman
Wicks>Steele
Leaves draper R2, x o’neill/coleman M8
I could get a $500k ruck next week
Comment
Close>JPK and have a nice day
Am probably thinking of going gawn
Who to prioritise bringing in this round out of Haynes, Daniel, Walters and t.greene
I’d give Walters a wide berth. He’s looked ordinary since he came back from injury with very few CBA’s.
Any one know what Flynn Perez’s likely job security is at the Roo’s?
TD: Good chance to play out the year
TD: Don’t bank on it
Shaw threw in the towel a long time ago. Expect the kids to get a run for the rest of the season.
Looking at Gawn Current rucks Nic Nat & Grundy 5 trades left playing for cash league win
Not enough cash will cost me 2 trades to get it done .
TU Go for it best chance to get Gawn
TD Hold fire too risky with lack of trades
Thanks for your help
Tough choice this week:
Tu- McGrath and close to Neale and Walters/Greene
Td- McGrath and close to a zerrett or m crouch and greenwood
Comment McGrath and Byrne Jones to laird and Neale- play close and then try and work close out of the team next week
Third option
Yeah, third option. As a fellow long-suffering DBJ owner, I recommend doing anything you can to get him Out. Of. Your. Team.
He’s been so bad that I’m thinking of passing on Gawn this week just so I can finally get rid of Byrne-Jones instead
While should I be keeping for M8
Thumbs up – Viney
Thumbs down – Angus Brayshaw
Isn’t Brayshaw injured? Or did I read that wrong?
He did hurt his ankle but came back on.
I actually havent heard how severe the ankle injury is and whether it would prevent him playing this week.
Perhaps I should be trading him out instead of Viney to be safe.
Have one too many, who do i trade out
TU: simpkin
TD: B smith
COMMENT: D smith
leaning towards simpkin due to his fixtures and inconsistency but my opponent this week has both B smith and simpkin so I can either neutralise those scores by trading D smith or hope that my upgrade of simp to a 550k+ premo works in my favour this week
Who would you guys get? two good option don’t know who to choose
TU: C.Daniels
TD: L.Mcdonald
TU Greenwood
TD Toby Greene
Thanks
Ranked 3k (aiming for best possible finish) with 3 trades a full premo.
21 on field 19 premos this week
T/U – Nic Nat and Wicks to Gawn and Coleman
T/D – Hold
Who is your other ruck? If it’s grundy, trade grundy. Has Witts next round.
Already in prelims, with 308K in the bank, 6 trades and 1 spot to fill (Riccardi @F6). Bringing Neale in next round when he loses another chunk of cash.
TU: 2 downgrades (Rivers & Wicks) this week, leaving 2 trades for each of the next rounds (1 down, 1 up)
TD: 3 downgrades this week (Rivers, Wicks, Draper), hopefully leading to Neale & a premo -> uber-premo upgrade next week. Goal of got to get to the dance before you can win.
For the first time this season, no trades. It feels good.
Hey Folks.
A few options to ponder this week. I have $151K and 3 trades left.
Bye players are Grundy, Dusty and Short.
1st option
T/U Trade Draper to JPK ( 2 trades left $26K )
2nd option
T/D Downgrade Close to Coleman / upgrade Draper to Fyfe / Adams / Lyons. (1 trade left)
Thanks.
third option.
Hold Draper @R2 this week, wait for more cash growth from Wicks
/ Schoenberg and then trade aggressively for a M8 next round.
Oh… also for more info..
My Rucks are..
Nic Nat / Grundy ( Draper )
My Mids are..
Neale / Macrae / Oliver / Titch / Cripps / Taranto / T Kelly/Schoe Wicks / Foot / Close.
Forwards..
Tracc /Whitt / Dusty / B smith/ D Smith / loop.. Rozee, Mozzie Comben.
All suggestions welcome.
Thanks.
I reckon you’ve got a few hit or miss players in your mid’s with Kelly, Taranto and even Cripps. I like the idea of getting one of those “sure things” from your second option, but having the 2 trades to upgrade your F6 might be better unless Rozee can finish the year like he started it. What’s your plan if you have 2 trades left? Simpkin?
Hey Emile.
Thanks for your comments. My Midfield is a little odd I know. I started Cripps. Taranto came in a month ago as a POD that hasn’t really worked yet ( Crows this week ). The other option that week was Zac Williams, so maybe Taranto wasn’t such a bad option after all.
T Kelly came in for J Kelly last week. With limited trades and no $$, I saw it as a chance to pocket $140K. In hindsight I should have gone JPK. I just liked Kelly’s ceiling and run home.
With Shuey now out for a few weeks maybe he can get some more inside ball.
I’m not really sold on Simpkin. I would rather maybe get in a cheap KPP with a huge ceiling to loop with Rozee.
I might go and have a look now.
Thanks again.
Seeing that you don’t have Gawn, he is a must have. JPK only scores average 90-100. Gawn against Freo, easy 140 points and have him as an option as captain.
Trade Close to Coleman for extra cash
Keep Draper, put emergency on him and wait if he scores well against Cats. If he doesn’t, trade Grundy for Gawn.
Cheers Razza.
Seems like a good plan. I’m just not sure if I want to “sell the farm” for Gawn.
It would leave me looping rookies at M8/9 and F6/7.
I will look into it a bit more.
Thanks for the advice.
Gawn has Freo (Darcy), Giants (Mumford) and Bombers (Draper).
Easy 135+ points
Grundy has Suns (Witts) and Port (Lycett)
Will struggle against Witts.
90+ scores
Weighing up between Dangerfield, Fyfe or Steele as my last mid premo.
Thumbs Up: Danger
Thumbs Down: Fyfe
Comment: Steele or Other
Steele, maybe Lyons?
TU Parker and Gray
TD Jpk and Greenwood
Have too many on my list that I consider M/F/D 5 or worse.
4 trades left 160 ITB.
TU out; Grundy, Viney Close
In Gawn, Steele and B.Williams
TD Out: Grundy Martin
In: Gawn Petracca
2nd option leaves 2 trades Have Nic Nat at R2 so will need one up my sleeve if they decide to rest him.
Need to win knockout final.
Tu: JPK
Td: Toby Greene
Comment: Charlie Dixon
Only have a 455k budget for a forward or mid.
TU – Go to 0 trades and bring in Lukosius or Cerra
TD – Wait a week and bring in McDonald or Laird
Final premium and playing for overall
Im going for ranking. Current ranking is 83rd. 4 trades in hand, $117,800 bank
Players in capitals are having their byes or injured.
Def: Lloyd. Ridley, Haynes, May, Doc, Rivers ( MAYNARD, Bailey Williams)
Mids: Neale, Oliver, Mitchell, Cripps, Cogs, Merrett, Viney, SHUEY, (Wicks, Bennell, Schoenberg)
Rucks: Naitanui, GRUNDY, (Draper)
Fwd: Petracca, Whitfield, Brayshaw, Walters, Daniher, Riccardi (MARTIN, Skinner)
Ins: Gawn, Shiel (last five rounds 124, 118, 57, 117, 129) only $488,900.
Outs: Grundy, Shuey,
Leaves me with 2 trades left and only $9K Bank
TU: Do it asap
TD: Nah, better options out there than Shiel.
Please give me advice if i should make a third trade or better option than Shiel would be much appreciated 🙂
Hey guys
Bailey Smith – Fyfe
YES
or
NO
cheers
Morning all, hope everyone’s going well, made no trades last week due to the number of teams with the bye, so ready to make some. Suggestions/advice greatly appreciated.
DEF: Lloyd, Haynes, Ridley, Stewart, Daniel, Doc (Rivers, Sholl)
MID: Bont, Neale, Oliver, ZMerrett, Mitchell, JKelly, Cripps, Wicks (Close, O’Halloran, Robertson(lions))
RUC: Nic Nat, Grundy (Cameron)
FWD: Whitfield, Petracca, Brayshaw (Freo), Dusty, Bailey Smith, Riccardi (Foot, Skinner)
9 trades left, $131,400 in the bank.
Cheers!!
Hey, JJ.
Could start by going:
Nic Nat -> Gawn
He’s done his job but his TOG is just problematic in these condensed rounds and he finishes the season against RoMo/Ryder and Goldstein.
Then I’d cash in on Close and Cameron, which will leave you with a bank of 320k.
From there, use your 320k bank, cash in on Sholl and then upgrade Wicks and Riccardi.
Goodluck.
Sorry GB, What do you mean by cash in? So only trade Nic Nat this week?
Means trade out, JJ. So “cashing in” on Close and Cameron would mean trading them out.
To recap:
Nic Nat -> Gawn
Close -> Coleman
Cameron -> 102k RUC
Ah thought so just wanted to be sure. Cheers!!
Those trades were exactly going to do Coleman and Conroy
Looking good JJ, you’re almost premo! Second GD’s comments. Gawn’s going to go nuts for the rest of the year
Cheers for the kind words Fos, Hoping your team goes well in finals
balta to gawn
with nic nat possibly out this week & goldy is out of form @ the moment , i’m not sure who to trade grundy to
Thinking of bringing in Boak this week, will North tag Boak?
Cheers
Nah, they didn’t tag Neale – won’t tag Boak.
TU: steele
TD: lyons
lyons gives an extra 25k (73k overall) for my last emergency trade if I ever need it
Steele leaves me with 48k
Worry with steele is can go big or could go sub ton, lyons may not go as big but gets a very good solid 120ish most likely
Other: Zerret, Crouch
Contemplating whether I want to bring in Neale this week or bring in Matt Crouch and the have the luxury trade option to move either Simpkin or Baz Smith to a Brayshaw.
I’ll have no trades left if I bring in Neale, currently rank ~1000 but playing for league and no care for ranking.
Final team would be..
DEF: Lloyd, Stewart, Daniel, Salem, Docherty, Williams (Gould, Williams)
MID: Neale/Crouch, Macrae, Oliver, Steele, Cripps, Danger, Duncan, Kennedy (Robertson, Cockatoo, Schoenberg)
RUC: Gawn, Goldy (Conroy)
FWD: Whitfield, Petracca, Dusty, Baz/Brayshaw, Simpkin/Brayshaw, Greenwood (Reid, Skinner)
T/U: Bring in Neale and finish the team but have no trades.
T/D: Trade in Crouch, and have one trade left for a luxury trade, potentially a forward to Brayshaw OR for injury worries.
Im in a knock out final so is it worth trading out Bailey Smith to a Fyfe/Duncan/Sheil type? who id think would likely score higher than Smith??
TU Get Perez as d8
TD Get Conroy as R3 and pocket the 15k
Currently have Scholl D7 & Williams d8
Greaves D8 perhaps
what is max trades we can make after this round?
R17 & R18 2 trades max
Good F6 option under $510k?
Forward line without byes looks like this at the moment.
Whitfield, Dusty, Petracca, B Smith (Bulldogs), Simpkin and Riccardi.
Need to win a final this week so prefer bringing a player not on the bye.
Comment options below.
Greenwood the best option IMO.
Greenwood
Rankine-Coleman
Grundy-Gawn
Bailey Smith-Dangerfield
Yay
or
Nay
Cheers guys
Hi all,
We’ve got the team at full premo with 5 trades left, but without Jake Lloyd or Max Gawn.
In order to get either in, will need at least 2 trades (1 down, 1 up). Do or die match up in the cash league this week.
DEF is: Laird, Haynes, Maynard, Stewart, Daniel and Saad (Rivers + B Williams on the pine)
RUC is: Nic Nat + Grundy (Draper on the pine)
If I bring in Lloyd, Maynard goes (bye); NicNat gone for Gawn if rested with Draper to cover Grundy (bye). Which player is the priority?
T/U: Lloyd
T/D: Gawn
Cheers
Thanks to some sound advice, thanks Razza and Emile.
I have narrowed it down to these two options..
T/U Play it safe. Draper to JPK
Saves 2 trades for carnage, or to upgrade F6, no Gawn.
T/D Operation Gawn. Use all 3 trades.
Out.. Nic Nat / Draper / Wicks
In Gawn / Coleman / M8 under $511.300. Dunkley ?
Loop F6. No Ruck cover.
PS: If I’m going Gawn, I want to keep Grundy. I just can’t trust Nic Nat with no cover.
Thanks again guys.
OK last one.
Sorry but this is possibly the last and surely the biggest, move of my season
I think I may have nailed it.
Out. Nic Nat / Grundy / Draper.
In Gawn / ROB* / M/F under $454k JPK / Simpkin / Greene
ROB* next 3.. GWS / Carlton / Rich
I feel ROB will likely outscore Nic Nat, and I have way less headaches with TOG or resting issues. Also, getting him in means I don’t need to downgrade, and have stronger cover Mid Forward.
T/U Nailed it !
T/D Keep Nic Nat and get a better M8 as above.
Thanks people.
Knock out final and just want to win this week. SO
Steele up against the Hawks coming off 2 monster scores
Or
Dangerfield vs Essendon
Which one will score more this round?
Cheers
Thoughts on a lukosius as an f6?
Anyone else considering Jack Scrimshaw for D6? $398K, since Sicily got injured he has scored 91, 93, 118
If I had a DEF spot left it’d be him, has absorbed Sicily’s role. Great value.
Had planned all year to get Gawn for PF which I am in, and was lucky enough to be on target till McGrath injury. So limited to about 480k to ensure enough for Goldy to Gawn PF rd instead of this rd. So……..
T/U JPK
T/D Parker
Nothing sinister in the two Sydney boys being my preferences.
Hey STC,
Playing for league and got the bye this week so no need to trade Grundy out over Goldy.
with 6 trades left do I trade
TU- Goldy and Draper > Gawn and 102k rookie
TD -Goldy, B Smith, Mosquito > Gawn, JPK, Coleman
Trading out Draper leaves me with a lot more money and an extra trade, but the second trade gives me more coverage.
who to trade?
Dev Smith
or
Bailey Smith
Scrimshaw or C.Daniel last spot
TU: J.Scrimshaw
TD: C.Daniel
Better combination:
TU – Steele and Greenwood
TD – Boak and Hawkins
Bit short for cash for the d6 as I’m bringing in Gawn for Grundy this week.
T/U Scrimshaw (St.Kilda/Dogs/GC)
T/D Rich (GC/Syd/Carlton)
Cheers
alright last one which one looks better??? can go either
Bailey Smith-Steele
or
Devon Smith-Dangerfield
Can only do one
Thanks
What scores more points overall.
TU – Gawn, Berry and Riccardi
TD – Nic Nat, Berry and Greene/J. Martin
Hey all
Playing for league, got the bye this week
TU : Goldy, Draper, B Smith to Gawn, Boak, and 102k ruck rookie
TD: Goldy, B Smith, Mosquito to Gawn, JPK, and Coleman
Love to know what the go with Cripps is? What is this mystery injury? 46 at 1/2 time, hardly scored through the third quarter…. decision looms….
