Tending to think the same. Gives me more flexibility and I can always grab a budget D6 down the line. It also gives me the flexibility to field a mid season draft gem if we get one) as my flex will be blocked out.
Trading McAndrew to Darcy Cameron now that he should have the ruck to himself. Double downgrading Lombard and Lindsay to Ison and Banfield. Do I use my last boost to do McKercher to Wilkie?
Got so many problems whoops
Currently own clark, mcluggage, houston and injured rankine and an injured durham plus a fee dying rookies price wise (carroll, anderson, marshall, lombard lindsay and burton
Prior to trades i have $259k itb and will probably bring ison and banfield in this week, which names are must goes this week out of the quite extensive list (if that doesnt sum up supercoach 2026 i dont know what will)
Marshall has to go. Bye this week and BE of 68. The DPP is helpful but he’ll start losing cash next game. Lombard at least has cash to make if you still need cover his bye. Fingers crossed Anderson gets another game before his game to make some more cash. Carroll and Lindsay are safe to hold to their late byes. Lindsay may lose some money but solid on field at least
Not all his fault though- spend a whole summer working a guy as an intercept tall when you already have allir, then put him in a dysfunctional forward line with two other focal points and tell him to stand in the corner… set him up to fail in my opinion.
And another one I started with…. Booted him after 3 rnds….. I have been amazing at choosing spuds this year:) the only thing I’ve been worse at is picking captains and or playing people with the vc on the double ton player!!
Let’s not forget that he was a very high scoring ruck last year and isn’t reliant on the old ruck rules either. He just started a bit slow and then was stuck not getting the full ruckloqd. He has a chance to just be a keeper
Cook -> Ison, Lindsay to Holmes DPP DEF/MID
I was always planning to take a “hit” in rd12 with so many Roos/Suns/Crows/Power players, but this sets up my stepping-stone trades to be aiming at full-premo by rd16
Lombard and Lindsay to Banfield and Ison. Got 22 playing and I think I have no bye problems so just going to upgrade after each teams byes for now. Got a $550k bank to do ldu and Anderson over next two weeks, then look at daicos and Jackson for flex.
I am super duper scared of dropping to rank 100k
currently have 99 in the bank\
thinking of making money for next year..
trading bont to iso
trading butters to cumming
Banking 180k. Lindsay now D7; however Whitflield is likely out this week + bye next week so will cover nicely. will cash out Lindsay to MSD rookie on his bye.
Is it dumb to bring in N Daicos before his bye? Feel he has bottomed out and don’t want to pay $100k more in 3 weeks time
T/U – Do it
T/D – Is dumb, can confirm
3rd trade
Rachele to LDU both on the bye
( still leaves me with 22 playing this week )
LDU has freo then a nice little run of west coast Richmond Essendon after his bye
Might be worth doing Rachele out instead of Anderson who still might have some cash to earn. Then you could cash Anderson (or some other rookie) out next week for LDU after the bye
TU- mcandrew, marshall, lombard > Ison, Banfield, Holmes + 462k for upgrades next week.
TD- miss out on one of these rookies or boost to trade rachele and use the cash this week.
Thinking to hold rachele see how he goes in the next couple weeks post bye with rankine out. Looking at petracca post bye as a trade in also.
Hey guys playing for rank & am aggressively trading as just outside top 3k. 21 trades before this week & plan to make 3 this week. Question is who scores more from here
TU: Bailey Smith
TD: Brodie Grundy
Byes are not an issue as they are both later in the weeks & will have ensured adequate players on field. Keen on your takes as both can go large & probably won’t both eventually Grundy seems the perfect flex.
i would go Smith, slighty cheaper and Grundy isn’t that great a flex, he does give cover if one of your other rucks are injured, but he can only be at flex. where there is plenty of room in the midfield for smith to move into if you want to clear that spot
i do like Treacy’s consistancy this year, only 3 scores under 75. His price isn’t cheap, so you are paying a premium price. get him knowing it will be a roller-coaster
i hate to say it, but of the key-forward types, if you want to go there, Jeremy Cameron’s run home is insane.
from round 19 onwards, Saints, Melbourne, Collingwood, Essendon, North and Richmond.
i got him in my team last year and watched him finish the year 131, 43, 167, 106, 46 and 129. roller-coaster
TU: Houston – Holmes, Clug – Heeney, Cook – Banfield (I would need to make three trades to grab Trac next week)
TD: Houston – Holmes, Marshall – Banfield (I could grab Trac in 2 trades next week and hold Clug)
Option 1: Lindsay, Murdoch, Lombard – this option gives me 386k in the bank for next week and i can use that to turn someone into Petracca resulting in no rookies on field for DEF and FWD (pending byes). It does mean i use up the better rookies that have generated cash, but isn’t that what they are there for?
Option 2: T.Marshall, S.Cumming, L.Henry – this gives me 63k in the bank making any upgrades next week harder. leaves the ‘better’ rookies in the team to keep building value. the players coming out though are possibly spuds who might not do much more anyway?
TU: option 1
TD: option 2
comment: any other thoughts or maybe a combination of the above?
Option 1 is eerily similar to what I’m doing. Cash out this week and getting Petracca in next week with money in the bank. I’d definitely vote for that
Cumming and Murdock both still have some money to make in different ways so I would try to hold both of those if you can. Could you do Lombard, Lindsay and Marshall out to cash in on two who’ve reached the end of cash gen and one who is on bye anyway?
I’m thinking of pulling the trigger with 4 trades:
Trade out: Lindsey, Lombard, Leake, Marshall
Trade in: Holmes, Heeney, Ison, Banfid. I was going to wait a week to get Heeney because his breakeven is 160 but I think he might score 200 against Richmond this week at the SCG.
TU: Lombard and McKercher for Holmes and Banfield
TD: Lombard, Murdock, A.Anderson for Holmes Banfield and another rookie and move McKercher forward and hold him
Looking for a sub-500k option who has a friendly bye (ideally round 15), do we like Callum Mills? Feels like he’s flown under the radar a little because he doesn’t have a huge ceiling, but is fairly consistent, has a good role, has only dropped under 90 three times, and has a 5 round average of 100.
Sitting fourth on the ladder, they meet six defenceless opponents over their next nine games.
Putting Gawn aside, Newcombe is their next best point scorer sitting 44th best S.C. avg., 16th best midfielder, 99.3 avg., will be sitting around 470-480k after his round 14 bye, his best score of the season so far was 136 against the Suns who he plays again in round 15, scored 112 against the Doggies meets them again in round 13.
TU. He’s a sleeper, buy him after this Saints game.
TD. Let him hibernate, he’s no Chautauqua….or Bernborough for the fossils.
i’m not that worried about round 16, even looking at getting Pickett and Sinclair this week. it is the last of the bye rounds and hopefully able to buy into other premiums during rounds 13, 14 and 15
It can be a case by case basis. I think it’s worth it for people to check how many guys they have on bye each week. 10+ guys out in round 16 would be really hard to manage so it is worth people taking it into consideration
TU: Heeney + $250k to get Petracca and Worrell next week if Phillipou can score a 65
TD: Wilkie + $417k to get Petracca and Dawson next week with cash leftover to upgrade Murdock at his bye the week after
Yep I thought about it more and going to just stick with him. No guarantee the tag keeps him down, we thought the same before the Sydney game and he tonned up. At his price point he fits so well into my plans over the next couple weeks, and would be a headache to have to re-shuffle everything at this point.
Hey guys, in a couple of minds and not sure whether to go Grundy or Cameron as my flex. I already have xerri and Gawn so this would probably mean I can’t get Grundy down the track
TU – get Grundy ( set and forget )
TD – go Cameron and bank 270k
I’m currently 10-1 in my league. Should I hold rankine? I’ve only got 4 rookies on the field and thinking of holding him. I don’t care to much about rank but only about my league. Pretty much have secured finals
TU / hold
TD / trade
new ball game looks like Carlton rebuilt 3 year plan over completed …. change the coach follow my Swans coach move the pill faster by hand lift your tackling pressure .. now maybe a shot at the finals …… one less coaching position available i realise one swallow doesn’t make a summer geeee it was a great game they are now a competitor
I’ve got bigger problems, but I wish I could rage trade McCluggage.
I turned Parish into McCluggage. It’s hard to even type the words.
Hold this week
I think a double downgrade to Ison and Banfield is something everyone should be looking at
No Zorko and late outs with Bruhn and Whitfield cost me every game this week…you don’t have to be dead to be stiff.
My team is full of a few frauds costing me most weeks.
Tu: Sideways houston or Clugg
Td: prioritise rookies off field and trade lombard to a premo
In – Ison
Out – IDK
Out – T.Marshall at this stage. Leaves me with 21 playing in round 12.
Josh Rachele
TU- Rage Trade Out
TD- Keep
Does he go back to getting more midfield time now that rankine is out? I think I’ll trade him anyway
Bigger priority trade out..
TU: Houston
TD: C MacDonald
Out D.Robertson,B.Cook,T.Marshall
IN J.Ison,C.Banfield,M.Holmes
Those 3 are going to be very popular ins this week. I’m doing the same
Last defender spot;
TU: Holmes
TD: Wilkie + 130k
Holmes cos he can go in the middle if needed
Tending to think the same. Gives me more flexibility and I can always grab a budget D6 down the line. It also gives me the flexibility to field a mid season draft gem if we get one) as my flex will be blocked out.
Rage trading Houston, Mccluggage, Cook
to
Holmes, Merrett, Ison
Anybody watch Eagles Vs Pies?
TU- Cameron
TD – Bailey Williams
Which to bring in- both have great job security and look to be good money makers/scorers
Trading McAndrew to Darcy Cameron now that he should have the ruck to himself. Double downgrading Lombard and Lindsay to Ison and Banfield. Do I use my last boost to do McKercher to Wilkie?
TU: yes
TD: no
I think we all get three trades per week over bye rounds.
Boosting would get him the 4th trade being proposed.
That’s if you have any remaining !
I thought I was using my boost when I did the third trade. Sweeet.
Got so many problems whoops
Currently own clark, mcluggage, houston and injured rankine and an injured durham plus a fee dying rookies price wise (carroll, anderson, marshall, lombard lindsay and burton
Prior to trades i have $259k itb and will probably bring ison and banfield in this week, which names are must goes this week out of the quite extensive list (if that doesnt sum up supercoach 2026 i dont know what will)
I think Lombard might be safe to go, especially with the bye this week. I’m probably moving him on he’s done his job 🙂
Marshall has to go. Bye this week and BE of 68. The DPP is helpful but he’ll start losing cash next game. Lombard at least has cash to make if you still need cover his bye. Fingers crossed Anderson gets another game before his game to make some more cash. Carroll and Lindsay are safe to hold to their late byes. Lindsay may lose some money but solid on field at least
Very early but looking at these:
Out: McAndrew, Steene, Lombard
In: Gawn, Ison, Banfield
TU or TD
HOLD Rankine + Serong?
Depends how many trades you got left, and premos you already have. I’m holding Serong
The time to trade Serong out was last week when it was announced as 2-3. Now he might be back next week so is worth holding in my view
Not a trade question but is Todd Marshall one of the worst popular supercoach picks in recent memory?
TU – Yes
TD – Yes!!!
Comment: yes again!!!!!
Not all his fault though- spend a whole summer working a guy as an intercept tall when you already have allir, then put him in a dysfunctional forward line with two other focal points and tell him to stand in the corner… set him up to fail in my opinion.
At least he made 100K, not what we expected but I’ve seen worse….
Exhibit A: Lachie Blakiston. Now that is a putrid pick.
And another one I started with…. Booted him after 3 rnds….. I have been amazing at choosing spuds this year:) the only thing I’ve been worse at is picking captains and or playing people with the vc on the double ton player!!
What are everyones thoughts on using Cameron as another stepping stone to Xerri/Grundy?
TU Cook & McAndrew to Banfield & Grundy
TD Cook, McAndrew & Carrol to Cameron, Daicos & Banfield +55k
Are you going to have enough trades to do that?
Out:
Either Artie Jones or Anderson (if he doesn’t come back in), Lombard and Cook
In: Banfield, Alger and Cameron
I figure I’ll use Cameron as a way to get to a Premo and bank the rest of the cash.
I already have Ison
Let’s not forget that he was a very high scoring ruck last year and isn’t reliant on the old ruck rules either. He just started a bit slow and then was stuck not getting the full ruckloqd. He has a chance to just be a keeper
Is Rankine a hold if his injury is 3 weeks or longer?
TU Yes
TD No
Cook -> Ison, Lindsay to Holmes DPP DEF/MID
I was always planning to take a “hit” in rd12 with so many Roos/Suns/Crows/Power players, but this sets up my stepping-stone trades to be aiming at full-premo by rd16
TU : good
TD : think again
Out: Lindsay, McAndrew, Lombard
In: Holmes, Ison, Banfield
Lombard and Lindsay to Banfield and Ison. Got 22 playing and I think I have no bye problems so just going to upgrade after each teams byes for now. Got a $550k bank to do ldu and Anderson over next two weeks, then look at daicos and Jackson for flex.
Already doing Lindsay and Lombard for Holmes and one of Ison/Banfield. Do I….
T/U – Trade Pou for Nick Daicos
T/D – Trade Pou for Ison/Banfield, bank 425k
Tu: Merrett
Td: Wilkie
Going wilkie means i can complete team with an extra trade for an injury or sidewaysing a fake premo
Should I trade out Jaques or Marshall??
I think Jaques
OUT: Carroll, Jaques & Marshall
IN: Holmes, Banfield & 99k rookie
(Already have ison)
Will leave me enough funds to hopefully grab Rowell in 2 trades next week.
Currently sitting number 1 (not satisfied)
thoughts on bailey williams is he worth a trade in
TU: Yep
TD: not worth it
Sitting #1? Why would you ask anyone here what to do? Or do you mean sitting #1 in your league?
This might be better suited to another thread, but what’s the best bye strategy:
TU – tank one bye round and have a solid amount of premos in every other bye round
TD – try to evenly spread missing premos across all the bye rounds to maximise chances on average
I’m trying to spread but RD 16 is going to wreck me I think!
Thinking of going Mills over Wilkie to avoid another round 16 player, especially considering I want to bring in Kozzy next week.
T/u:
Lindsay, Durham and Selwood OUT
Wilkie, Sanders and Ison IN
T/d:
Lindsay, Selwood, Lombard OUT
Baz Smith, Ison and Banfield IN
Thinking of the following:
Out: Lombard, Steene and Carroll
In: Banfield, Ison and Heeney
Currently looking at sub-500k value plays:
TU – Callum Mills
TD – Darcy Cameron
I am super duper scared of dropping to rank 100k
currently have 99 in the bank\
thinking of making money for next year..
trading bont to iso
trading butters to cumming
TU: im fryin
TD: oh hell nah twinigin
Money doesnt carry over to next year. Each year is stand alone. Sounds like you might be trolling or pinging.
hes taking the mickey
Lombard – Banfield
Cook – Ison
Caroll – Holmes
Banking 180k. Lindsay now D7; however Whitflield is likely out this week + bye next week so will cover nicely. will cash out Lindsay to MSD rookie on his bye.
Vale Neale Daniher, an inspiration and such a fighter.
Is it dumb to bring in N Daicos before his bye? Feel he has bottomed out and don’t want to pay $100k more in 3 weeks time
T/U – Do it
T/D – Is dumb, can confirm
If you can cover him next round, no brainer IMO. Probs the cheapest he’ll be now.
Trades dwindling- McClugga – what to do?
TU: Sideways trade to Holmes
TD: Hold
Baggage to Holmes is not sideways.
Who stays?
TU – LIndsay
TD – Houston
trade out josh lindsay or lachlan mcandrew
TU – Lindsay
TD – mcandrew
who are you bringing in?
oscar who do you intend to bring in ruck/ defence/flex ?
i will be brining in max holmes regardless of who i trade out
Is there a list of the new DPP
Mcandrew to Cameron
Angry Anderson to ison
3rd trade
Rachele to LDU both on the bye
( still leaves me with 22 playing this week )
LDU has freo then a nice little run of west coast Richmond Essendon after his bye
T/U yes
T/D waste of a trade
Might be worth doing Rachele out instead of Anderson who still might have some cash to earn. Then you could cash Anderson (or some other rookie) out next week for LDU after the bye
Good shout I’ll have a look at that one
Mcandrew to Cameron
Rachele to ison
Sharp to banfield
Leaves me with 483k for upgrades in the coming weeks with only Lindsay Murdoch retschko and ison/angry Anderson to upgrade
Rage trade Houston?
TU – GONE
TD – persist
Who goes?
TU- B.Cook
TD- Fonti
Is it worth boosting 4th grade to go C.Serong > B. Smith??
Other trades are Cook+Marshall+McAndrew > Homes+Ison+Banfield
TU: bring in Baz
TD: hold Serong
Two trade options this week.
TU: Houston, Rachelle cook traded out for ison banfield and Holmes and bank 400k
TD: Rachelle, Burton, Marshall traded out for Ison banfield and Holmes
TU- mcandrew, marshall, lombard > Ison, Banfield, Holmes + 462k for upgrades next week.
TD- miss out on one of these rookies or boost to trade rachele and use the cash this week.
Thinking to hold rachele see how he goes in the next couple weeks post bye with rankine out. Looking at petracca post bye as a trade in also.

Hopefully the mid season draft gives us some rookie gems
thanks Harry appreciate the information
Out: Rankine. Todd Marshall. Lombard
In: Banfield, Zorko, Finn callaghan
TU: do it
TD: dont do it
Can you just do Rankine & Marshall -> Finn & Banfield?
yeah but then i just have 200k in my bank
and is zorko really tjat bad
Yes Zorko is really that bad IMO
He’s also out for at least 2 more weeks. Bank cash this week and pick up round 12 bye players next week
He will forever be known as Fuckingzorko in my house.
Who to get rid of for Banfield??
TU: Cook – Not much more money to make but some decent scores over bye period.
TD: Cumming – More money to make but less scoring potential than cook.
Cheers everyone
Hey guys playing for rank & am aggressively trading as just outside top 3k. 21 trades before this week & plan to make 3 this week. Question is who scores more from here
TU: Bailey Smith

i would go Smith, slighty cheaper and Grundy isn’t that great a flex, he does give cover if one of your other rucks are injured, but he can only be at flex. where there is plenty of room in the midfield for smith to move into if you want to clear that spot
Going to trade in Ison Banfield and Holmes
Who to trade out?
TU: Rachelle Marshall Burton
TD: Houston cook burton
trade in Ison Banfield and Holmes
Out:
TU: Rachelle Marshall Burton
TD: Houston cook marshall
Who to trade out? I have a full 23 regardless plus D7 and M9 that can be looped on. TD only means I have to field Banfield this week
TU: Lombard who’s on bye
TD:
Who to trade out? I have a full 23 regardless plus D7 and M9 that can be looped on. TD only means I have to field Banfield this week
TU: Lombard who’s on bye
TD: Ginnivan who’s been a failed pick
Thoughts on bringing in Treacy to complete my FWD line?
TU – Yes not a bad move
TD – No there will be better options
i do like Treacy’s consistancy this year, only 3 scores under 75. His price isn’t cheap, so you are paying a premium price. get him knowing it will be a roller-coaster
i hate to say it, but of the key-forward types, if you want to go there, Jeremy Cameron’s run home is insane.
from round 19 onwards, Saints, Melbourne, Collingwood, Essendon, North and Richmond.
i got him in my team last year and watched him finish the year 131, 43, 167, 106, 46 and 129. roller-coaster
He’s a good shout but also worth considering byes cause round 16 is going to be brutal
agree, Cameron is one that you have as a luxury play to finish the season
Cook steene Marshall–> ison banfield wilkie
I already have 6 Rd 16 premos
Tu good trades
Td bad trades too many rd 16 byes
Tu d cameron
Td wilkie
TU: Houston – Holmes, Clug – Heeney, Cook – Banfield (I would need to make three trades to grab Trac next week)
TD: Houston – Holmes, Marshall – Banfield (I could grab Trac in 2 trades next week and hold Clug)
Should I trade Houston to Holmes? Or move Houston to Bench Cover?
TU: Houston to Holmes
TD: Use Houston as Bench Cover
Is moving Houston to bench cover too much money being wasted or good coverage over byes?
TU: Good Bench Cover
TD: Good Coverage over Byes
TU: Cook to Holmes, Lombard to Banfield (Houston moves to bench in defence)
TD: Houston to Holmes, Marshall to Banfield
TU: C. Oliver
TD: Z. Merrett
Ways to bring in Holmes, Ison, Banfield?
Option 1: Lindsay, Murdoch, Lombard – this option gives me 386k in the bank for next week and i can use that to turn someone into Petracca resulting in no rookies on field for DEF and FWD (pending byes). It does mean i use up the better rookies that have generated cash, but isn’t that what they are there for?
Option 2: T.Marshall, S.Cumming, L.Henry – this gives me 63k in the bank making any upgrades next week harder. leaves the ‘better’ rookies in the team to keep building value. the players coming out though are possibly spuds who might not do much more anyway?
TU: option 1
TD: option 2
comment: any other thoughts or maybe a combination of the above?

Cumming and Murdock both still have some money to make in different ways so I would try to hold both of those if you can. Could you do Lombard, Lindsay and Marshall out to cash in on two who’ve reached the end of cash gen and one who is on bye anyway?
I can’t do both Lindsay and Marshall as Marshall is in defence and I don’t have any DPP that can go back there
That is a lot trickier. Can you do option 2 with Lombard instead of Cumming?
Byes not an issue, plan on getting both but who first?
TU: Oliver
TD: N. Daicos
I’m thinking of pulling the trigger with 4 trades:
Trade out: Lindsey, Lombard, Leake, Marshall
Trade in: Holmes, Heeney, Ison, Banfid. I was going to wait a week to get Heeney because his breakeven is 160 but I think he might score 200 against Richmond this week at the SCG.
TU: Good trades
TD: bad trades
Thankyou
Looking to get Holmes, undecided whether to upgrade from Houston or move on Rookies.
TU: Trade Houston
TD: Trade Rookies (Cook/Lombard)
Out
Cook, Lombard, Marshall, McAndrew
In
Naicos, Kozzie, Ison, Dcam
Also considering holding McAndrew through bye and rd 13 to then grab Xerri + getting Jackson/Grundy at flex after their byes
T/U Option 1
T/D Option 2 no Dcam and instead trade another rookie out for Banfield (most likely henry)
Ultimate Rage Trade
McClugga, Rankine, Rachele -> Holmes, Banfield, Smith (or Heeney)
TU – Go for it.
TD – Hold Fire and only do it on there bye
Bringing in Holmes & Banfield this week!
Trading out Cook and one other?
TU – Carroll (7k ITB)
TD – Houston (153.7k ITB)
after this week Carrolls BE will be very high. he goes this week or next. personally i’m trading him this week to get Sinclair
Is trading in Baz still viable if I already have 5 other premos on rd16 bye?
Also have Holmes, Sinclair, Bont, Gawn, Flanders
TU: still good trade inc
TD: look at someone with different by
TU: Lombard and McKercher for Holmes and Banfield
TD: Lombard, Murdock, A.Anderson for Holmes Banfield and another rookie and move McKercher forward and hold him
I’ve got the chance to get Grundy, or do I go Darcy Cameron and bank 295k
TU – get Grundy while you have the cash
TD – get Cameron and wait for price drop for Grundy
Collingwood selected a 26 year old ruckman in the midseason draft.
You think he will play within a month?
I imagine it’s a depth choice in case something happens to Cameron now that Steene is done for the year
Have 1 boost left
Am thinking
Out Houston, cook, sellwood
In Holmes, Wilkie, banfield
Or
Out Houston, cook, bruhn, sellwood
In Holmes, Wilkie, banfield, DCam
I think you have 3 trades during the byes so won’t need a boost.
You can use 4 with a boost during the bye round
First option saves a boost, second option uses the last boost and gets bargain DCam for the flex.
If you don’t have Naicos, would you get him now?
Does Collingwood drafting a ruck in the mid-season draft change plans for Darcy Cameron?
TU – no, he’s depth only and unlikely that he’ll be a big impact player this year, Cameron is still great value
TD – yes, Cameron might have duties split again, look for value elsewhere
T/U – N. Daicos 515.8k
T/D – I. Heeney 604.8k
I see the new mid season draftees have hit SC, all $99,100.
Jaxon Artemis – Essendon Def
Kye Annand – Richmond Def
Oliver Francou – West Coast Mid
Flynn Riley – Carlton Ruck
Xavier Bamert – Port Mid
Oliver Griffin – North Fwd
Campbell Lake – Saints Mid/ Fwd
Harrison Coe – Pies Ruck
Caleb May – Western Bulldogs Ruck
Hugo Hall-Kahan – Crows Def/ Mid
Lukas Cooke – Dees Def
Max Beattie – Hawks Mid/ Fwd
Marcus Herbert – West Coast Mid
Alex Van Wyk – Port Ruck
Liam Puncher – Pies Def
Joel Fitzgerald – Dees Mid
Mitch Podhajski – Pies Fwd
Max Mapley – Dees Ruck
Last mid spot:
TU – Merrett
TD – Clarry
Strongly considering spending up and getting Smith.
But the bargain hunter in me is looking at Zerrett or Neale instead (and saving $80k).
TU: Just get Smith..Set & forget
TD: Save the cash and go Zerrett/Neale instead
And if TD, who is the better option?
Looking for a sub-500k option who has a friendly bye (ideally round 15), do we like Callum Mills? Feels like he’s flown under the radar a little because he doesn’t have a huge ceiling, but is fairly consistent, has a good role, has only dropped under 90 three times, and has a 5 round average of 100.
TU – yes
TU – no
does it have to be a defender?
BJ Williams as a Ruc/Fwd is interesting me at $432k
Tu clarry
Td neale
Tu wilkie + 100k ( i already have 6 Rd 16 premos but only 1 as defender)
Td clarry/neale
i read that Wilkie is on pain meds to play each week
Hawthorn is a SuperCoach enigma.
Sitting fourth on the ladder, they meet six defenceless opponents over their next nine games.
Putting Gawn aside, Newcombe is their next best point scorer sitting 44th best S.C. avg., 16th best midfielder, 99.3 avg., will be sitting around 470-480k after his round 14 bye, his best score of the season so far was 136 against the Suns who he plays again in round 15, scored 112 against the Doggies meets them again in round 13.
TU. He’s a sleeper, buy him after this Saints game.
TD. Let him hibernate, he’s no Chautauqua….or Bernborough for the fossils.
no hawthorn player is averaging over 100 this season. that is the Hawks game, look elsewhere.
It can be Bowey, Smith, Bont or Sinclair will have to be Daicos.
Was having a Melbourne, Doggies and Saints round 16 nightmare.
Newcombe is the Hawk’s best player.
i’m not that worried about round 16, even looking at getting Pickett and Sinclair this week. it is the last of the bye rounds and hopefully able to buy into other premiums during rounds 13, 14 and 15
It can be a case by case basis. I think it’s worth it for people to check how many guys they have on bye each week. 10+ guys out in round 16 would be really hard to manage so it is worth people taking it into consideration
Derek
Read that Kingsley going to tag Kossy with Bedford
interesting. consider me been warned.
it is best 18 this week and i’ll have 22 playing, so that might soften the blow if he has a poor score
Tu: Heeney
Td: Bazlenka
TU: Heeney + $250k to get Petracca and Worrell next week if Phillipou can score a 65
TD: Wilkie + $417k to get Petracca and Dawson next week with cash leftover to upgrade Murdock at his bye the week after
Out – perez, cook and papley
In – ison, banfield, and Holmes
Also leaves $125,600 in bank
TU: McCluggage –> Holmes
TD: HOLD McClugga + trade Jones or Anderson –> Clarry
Have to offload one of these two:
TU – Lindsay
TD – phillipou
Trade one
TU: Pou
TD: Cook
Held Serong last week. Due to miss 1 more week, play 1 game, then Bye…
TU: Trade
TD: Hold
Last week was the time to trade, now he’s just missing a week
TU – T.Marshall & Cook > Holmes & S.Marshall
TD – Cook > Darcy Cameron
Who goes this week?
TU: Rachele (Could get mid time back with no rankine)
or
TD: Houston (Has nice games coming up)
Thought WCE would have been a nice game for Houston
Who to trade out
TU: Cook
TD: Rachelle
Trade out
Mcandrew, cook and carroll
Bring in
Holmes, d. cameron, ison
Good moves or not
hey guys,
who would you trade in out of these 2?
Zach Merrett
or
Clayton Oliver
Cheers
I’m debating the same, but with a 3rd gun in the mix
TU : Trade in Merrett/Oliver
TD : Go for Heeney (and ignore the 160 BE)
If it helps you split, Clarry has a much better bye, though it is next weekend
Thinking of trading Steene for a $99.1k Ruck.
Don’t need him playing as I have Darcy Cameron at Flex.
Frees up $118.1k
TU – good idea
TD – the trade is worth more than $118.1k
is it worth rage trading mccluggage
Is it a good idea to skip getting in Kozzy this week with a BE of 120 and a likely Bedford tag?
its either this week or next week.
after this round and his 60 drops out of the price, his BE will be very low next week and you will be having to jump on.
if he scores a 90 this week, he is $15k cheaper next week is the only reason you would wait, might as well get him this week. i am.
Yep I thought about it more and going to just stick with him. No guarantee the tag keeps him down, we thought the same before the Sydney game and he tonned up. At his price point he fits so well into my plans over the next couple weeks, and would be a headache to have to re-shuffle everything at this point.
Hey guys, in a couple of minds and not sure whether to go Grundy or Cameron as my flex. I already have xerri and Gawn so this would probably mean I can’t get Grundy down the track
TU – get Grundy ( set and forget )
TD – go Cameron and bank 270k
I’m currently 10-1 in my league. Should I hold rankine? I’ve only got 4 rookies on the field and thinking of holding him. I don’t care to much about rank but only about my league. Pretty much have secured finals
TU / hold
TD / trade
Started off thinking don’t trade this week. Everyone I trade-in is going to have a bye in the next 4 weeks.
Ended up using a boost.
Out – Sellwood, Steene, Dovaston & Cook
In – Holmes, White ($99.1k Ruck/Fwd), Banfield, Darcy Cameron.
Last week’s trades were
Phillipou & Sellwood > Merrett & Derksen
Team before trades this week:
Def – Whitfield, Sinclair, Houston, McCarthy, Lindsay, Derksen (Marshall, W.Edwards)
Mid – Butters, Bont, Holmes, Merrett, Daicos, Callaghan, W.Duursma, Smith (S.Cumming, Retschko, Burton)
Ruc – Jackson, Gawn (McAndrew)
Fwd – Sheezel, Trac, Flanders, Kozzy, JHF, Cook (Lombard, Dovaston)
Flex – Murdock
$26,300 ITB, 19 trades left, 1 boost
Thinking of going Marshall, Cook & Dovaston to Wilkie, Banfield & Ison ($167,900 ITB)
Thoughts?
Get Holmes
People talking about Kozzie has me rethinking now so let’s try this
TU: Heeney + $250k
TD: Kozzie + $385k
Option 1: Houston to Holmes, Clug to Heeney and Cook to Banfield
Option 2: Cook to Holmes, Marshall to Banfield, Burton to Artemis (early)
TU – smith
TD – heeney
Heeney bye suits me better so thinking him just for the structure
TU B J Williams
TD Murdock
TU Oliver
TD Dale
Houston -> Holmes ??
T/U – Yes
T/D – No
new ball game looks like Carlton rebuilt 3 year plan over completed …. change the coach follow my Swans coach move the pill faster by hand lift your tackling pressure .. now maybe a shot at the finals …… one less coaching position available i realise one swallow doesn’t make a summer geeee it was a great game they are now a competitor
Had a stroke reading that
