Opinion 2024: Rookie Roulette

[Juzzo]

on field, no loops

Wilson/H Garcia v North
Rogers (as @benderiffic said, sub risk) v Bris at Gabba?
Clark v Melbourne

 

[Tamuhawk]

Graham vs Clohesy

Wow, I didn't even realise Clarke had been picked. Never expected to see him again. Would like to trade him out rather than lose more cash 3k short of my option. Have to hope he an get a good run and spike... This round has already been crazy.

Wilson

Graham vs Clohesy

Think Graham in the wet - loves to tackle so conditions should suit him better.

 

[Wheedus]

Graham vs Clohesy

Total toss of the coin. Clohesy been trending down and copped the hand / wrist knock last week. Against Brisbane, my gut feel is Graham's game and role is more reliable for scoring than Clohesy but Clohesy has the higher ceiling IF he can hit the scoreboard. FWIW, Graham named on the ball (obviously it's only a team sheet with Rowell named at CHF )

Wilson
Rogers
Garcia

In that order. I think Garcia/Clark are likely sub candidates.

Just on Wilson, his game against North in the preseason was a standout. 24 disp, 10 marks for 106SC. Tempted to play him ahead of both Graham and Clohesy. No loops unfortunately.

If Rogers is sub it might be a matter of reverse trades!?

Thanks for that friendly reminder. Here's hoping he does do well again as I'm looping him with Windsor with Mannagh as my donut.

Yeah leaning toward Graham too.

Also have the option to loop Roberts & Clohesy down back using Hore. But Hore named as an emergency so may backfire if Roberts goes big. So probably safer to just field Roberts.

Slightly tricky one. Currently have Sweet R3 E, Reid M9 (but will move to F7 with a trade), Darcy F6. Also have Jackson/Livingstone loop.

My two options:
1) Lock in Sweet and choose between Reid/Darcy (Reid feels obvious but Darcy v hawks is a bit tempting)
2) Swing Jackson back up to R and play both Reid and Darcy ahead of Sweet

Play it safe and lock in Sweet's 74 and field Reid over Darcy. So option 1 for me.

 

[Connoisseur]

Hold Dempsey at M9 and loop D Wilson and R Garcia at F6
or
Hold Cadman at F7 and loop A Cadman and R Garcia at F6

 

[NormanDustySmith]

Just how wet is this game going to be?

Considering straight fielding a Graham/Clohesy and throwing the E on Roberts.

Thank you, tonned up!

Wilson
Rogers
Garcia
Clark

In that order. I think Garcia/Clark are likely sub candidates.

Wilson

Thank you!

 

[Tamuhawk]

Likely taking Windsor's 71...

Which one to bench?

Wilson vs Hawks
Clohesy vs North
Reid vs Pies

Jeez this is tough! You could make an argument for all 3 breaking 71 but statistically unlikely that they all do so I get taking Windsor. If I was a betting man I'd bench Clohesy, even though he's up against North his form has been trending downwards. Wilson on a hot run and Reid will win his share of ball against a depleted Pies mid
