I'll be keen to jump off but not in Round 5 as he covers Grundy's bye quite nicely, should still have a managable BE and never know how Darcy goes first game back. Assuming BE is still not out of control, would probably keep Round 6 as well (for Gawn's bye) then jump off at Round 7. It's a bit of a balance of jumping off too quickly (Darcy re-injury or LJ keeps scoring well) or too late (starts dropping in price too much, copping 70-80 scores if mostly forward)
In an ideal world, he has a poor run between Rounds 6-12, gets to his pre-season price, then if Darcy has another injury, could hop on again.

Definitely a consideration for me. Has 3 really nice ruck matchups in a row (TDK, Soldo, Williams) so I’m hoping Darcy takes an extra week or two or they ease him in. Hopefully he can take advantage and push his price up. Would have to be closer to the 650k mark than say the 600k mark though for me to pull the trigger.
Think he goes 95-100 when Darcy is at full fitness. Were times last week where they used Treacy in the ruck and parked Jackson as the deepest forward.

Yeah, that’s the other aspect you have to consider. Personally, after round 6 is probably the time I’d trade so the early byes wouldn’t matter by that point. Also have doubts on whether Gawn plays every game but I don’t think we’ll see him ‘managed/rested’ until after the mid-season bye.
Eyeing off Toby Conway next week pending on how his situation pans out. I do think the Cats should persist with him. Chris Scott came out today and said “his performance was really encouraging” but he also said “he’s going to be managed carefully” and he isn’t able to play week- in week-out at this stage. Only had 66% TOG so I assume his fitness levels aren’t up to scratch yet. One who could maybe be used as cover at R3?

Get him back in for $500k after his bye as a slingshot. 6 rounds without him.
Think he’ll be a hold firstly as he is cover for Gawn and Grundy on their byes.
Currently he is F1, and I can’t see many M/F coming from the midfield any time soon?
I think I saw something saying Sanders was the best midfielder to get forward status, maybe Bont if they play more WCE games 🤣 Most of the midfielders getting DPP are going to Defence.
At worse does he drop out of the top 6 forwards prior to his bye?
Natural progression, think he is easily a 100/105 forward.
As @WindyHillWizard says he can cover a week or 2 of ‘injuries/resting’ if required.
Heeney, Jackson, Flanders, maybe Powell? Zorko if he stays halfback and injury free will do it.
Then the way its shaping up KPF are going to be our goto players of choice soon like McKay, King, Hogan(some have already been there, done that) or Curnow.
I think if you have Jackson he is a hold till bye, as at worse a 90’s man but he’ll do better than that.
Macrae and Moore both scored a 59 and seem a long way off what they promised in the pre season.
