Scored 2835 this week making it back-to-back 2800+ scores. With that said I suspect I’ll lose this week’s knockout final (it will be close). I have 2 trades remaining and $2600 in the kitty. I’m seriously thinking of going for broke and burning my last trades to upgrade Merrett (W Ashcroft another option). If I do, who should it be to?
1. Xerri (who will play GWS)
2. McCluggage (SYD)
3. Dawson (WC) or
4. Another – have up to $605,800 to spend on the premium).
Dawson’s fixture is really good but just the one game at AO. He’s been decent enough interstate but obvs prefer it at AO.
Briggs and Nank good for Xerri – like really good. That almost tips the scales. ROB to finish I hate though.
Cluggers could be nice but Swans just OB tagged Zezz. If they tag, Cluggers gets it.
Others under 605k I can is only Holmes really? Rate him w Geelong’s gorgeous form and his fixture. Unsure who Jordon goes to out of him and Smith though.
It’s honestly super hard, Owen.
Dawson, Xerri, Cluggers and Holmes all great options with nice fixtures.
I scored 2725 but had McCarthy’s 125 sitting on the bench so have traded Johnson for Farrar and moved McCarthy to Flex. With 2 x trades left that hopefully is enough to trade out a player/s due to injury….
I haven’t posted for weeks and then double post. D’oh!
Due to unfortunate circumstances I have been unable to post recently and not likely to resume regular posts soon. Apologies
If you are in finals all the very best, if not we at SCT will help you bounce back next year.
1 trade left, worth holding Neale for this week if can cover with mccarthy and no other outs? Have a bye in most of my league finals. Can always trade neale next week or week after is no other carnage
T/D Bring in a fwd, such as Darcy, Cameron, Thilthorpe, Kennedy or Mier,s so that I can move McCarthy from the mid bench to flex and move Humphrey (weakest onfield player) to the mid bench.
I like the trade down option – bringing in Miers with Geelongs great run & his excellent form
Personally I would trust McCarthy more than Humphrey – especially now that Touk is back getting CBA’s for Gold Coast (and Davies has also been getting CBA’s the last 2 weeks)
I’d say hold but be aware of the breakevens of your potential replacements and your bank – you don’t your best targets to be out of your price range next week.
Two trades left and Lachie Neale needs to be replaced. I know we generally should avoid key forwards but I’m going down that risk/reward rabbit hole. I can’t decide between these two.
TU – Jeremy Cameron (Ess GEEL, Syd SCG, Rich MCG)
TD – Aaron Naughton (Melb MCG, West Coast MARVEL, Freo MARVEL)
Need one forward to complete my forwards.
TU Darcy
TD Pickett
Comment Kennedy, Cameron or Moore etc
Gotta be Darcy or Cameron. In form KPFs with butter opposition.
Darcy’s got defeated Dees, Eagles and Freo w light key back stocks.
Cameron. I mean, Tiges Dons. Shut the gates.
It’s out of them. Pickett didn’t do enough v Eagles.
Jezz didn’t get as fed as I thought he would today. Cats still very varied going I50.
I’ve voted Darcy but back yourself in, Joey.
Good luck.
Thank you. GL to you also

I’d have it as:
1) Xerri
2) Dawson
3) Holmes
4) Cluggers
Best of luck whoever you go with, Owen.
Great summary GD
Thank you, and now with Neale out I have to alter my thinking a little. Roughly the same equation though.
TU- McCluggage
TD- George Hewett
Plan to grab a new ruck this week to finish my side, have the $ for one of these two? Comments welcome, thanks legends.
TU Xerri (should be back this week after a nice “rest”)
TD Jackson (been scoring more consistently of late in hybrid role)
Carroll + TDK > Farrar + Xerri
Leaves 2 trades $127k itb for emergencies.
TU: Good trades
TD: Rethink it
Which mid would you luxury trade to Rowell/Anderson/McCluggage
TU – Brayshaw
TD – Neale
I scored 2725 but had McCarthy’s 125 sitting on the bench so have traded Johnson for Farrar and moved McCarthy to Flex. With 2 x trades left that hopefully is enough to trade out a player/s due to injury….
Merrett out. In
TU English
TD Libba
TU = Merritt
TD = Serong
Been holding trades as playing for leagues, down to knockout games, time to turn Merrett and Serong into Anderson and Dawson?
Got burnt by Hayden Young Adductor, only $14k in the kitty, is there an option circa $410 or less? Any position except ruck.
Slim pickings…
Tim kelly with a mid role is a decent option
Off topic but for FPL
TU: Isak
TD: Palmer
TU – Sinclair
TD – Ash
Lachie Neale out for the rest of the H&A with a quad injury

Two trades left and with Neale out, think he finally has to go but do I use both trades to also cut TDK?
TU: yes get rid of both
TD: no, just Neale
If I do both trades, which option
TU: Xerri and some player below $430k
TD: Touk and Kennedy
1 trade left, worth holding Neale for this week if can cover with mccarthy and no other outs? Have a bye in most of my league finals. Can always trade neale next week or week after is no other carnage
Tu: Yes
Td: No, trade Neale
Neale out 1 trade left $2k in the bank
T/U Straight swap for Gulden or Richards
T/D Bring in a fwd, such as Darcy, Cameron, Thilthorpe, Kennedy or Mier,s so that I can move McCarthy from the mid bench to flex and move Humphrey (weakest onfield player) to the mid bench.
Cheers!

That was meant to be my actual reply to AJ! Last time I try to do 2 posts at once!
