Sorry, how does this stack up in the real world. AFL setting themselves up for legal failure. Only a matter of time before 21 days becomes norm for AFL games. May not be this year though it should be. Guys like Butters are going to be very high risk in future.

Which player's prices changed? I noticed my projected score was different but didn't notice any changes to my remaining salary.

Zac Attack has more then likely broken by then in any case so it could be a case of downgrading him to a F or M rookie then moving one of Martin / McKercher / Roberts / Sexton to defence.

I guess it then is also a case of looking at what F7/M9 are scoring in comparison to D6/D7.

Lots to play out in the first few weeks once we actually get under way.

Yep. That's what I meant by "tally another trade to your corrections"

Those correction trades add up mighty fast too if you don't keep on top of them. Before you know it you are trading into Kozzy Pickett to get a quick price bump on the back of what looks like increased mid time and scoring, only to be spending again when he drops you that final 16, your season in tatters

Not that I'm scarred or anything

Apologies, I didn't pick up on the correction trade part of your post. I quoted the two posts and read extra trade.

I'm looking at Burgoyne for my defence having this news on Darcy/Jackson by dropping Sheezel down. He will probably get D/M status himself to help flick a McKercher to defence.

They can't amend your remaining dollars, are you sure you didn't have a player listed as injured who is no longer on the injury report? ie Zac Williams? confirmed as playing.

 

[aj74]

If Darcy misses 6, in the first 6 games Jackson plays against Brisbane (at OS), Port & WCE who give away big points to opposition ruckmen, as well as 2 more games at OS, and a game against North.

It's all pointing to starting him if you think he's going to be top 6 hey. There's a real chance that the bulk if what he does score will happen in the opening month or so

Interesting.. I checked the last team screenshot I posted a month ago and none of the popular picks have been adjusted, but I'm 100% sure I had $12.2k remaining salary last night and it's now down to $9.3k. When I get home I'll check my screenshots saved on my PC.

Was instantly noticeable for me given it was 5 figures.

No Ladhams. Good for Grundy. Roberts on bench so sub risk. Jordon named on ball.

Windsor and Billings on bench. Spargo straight back in from injury and on field. Sub very likely to be one of Laurie or Chandler from the bench.

Complete BS. The AFL again trying to manage the process by sitting on the fence and having a bet each way. We want to show we care about concussion but we need our players out there so the product is not diminished. The AFL must have an anus as large as the Grand Canyon from all the fence posts they have sat on.

I don't think the sub has to come from the bench (I'm sure it will 90% of the time though, but lets see if all 8 come from the bench in Round 0)

I agree on who the subs could be, likely Roberts, but a chance Cuningham. Probably Laurie (or Chandler) but a chance McVee if Salem doesn't play mids again.

I sure hope Salem doesn't put up 120+ in a pure mid role...

Yes the sub must come from the bench.

I thought it was anyone from the 23 named. Essendon did a fair bit of it last season with Phillips, D'am and Davey

Fairly sure that’s an assumption that has been made but we’ll see if it happens in Round 0 or I have to wait to wait until Round 2 or 3 for it to start happening

Goodwin has always played a straight bat with this sort of stuff so almost certain the sub for Melbourne will come from the bench. McVee zero chance of being sub.

That would be horrific. And I am sure that last season the rule was the sub came from the list of emergencies.

Yeah, I’m sure some clubs will be better than others.

As an example this was from Melbourne’s team announcement tonight:
