3/455 Zorko
Zorko VC 141x2
Dunkley 90
Steele 83
Zorko came in this week and was trusted with VC duties. Somewhat unhappy given the poor second half but tell me he scores 141 pre-game, I’d take it in a heartbeat. Happy I jumped on early despite the BE. Dunkley has been very poor since I’ve traded him in. 89, 115, 99, 104, and now 90. Not what I paid 618k for. Can’t wait until I can trade Steele next week. Such a frustrating own. Not even remotely close to his early season form. Even got sent forward to pay attention to Zorko at the end.
Bont, Ryan, Serong, Heeney, Grundy, Rankine, Dale, Jackson, Moore, Freijah, and Dowling tomorrow. Big day.

4/542
Played: D Zorko (C), J Dunkley, J Steele and A Schoenmakers (new recruit)
Yet to play:
Saturday: M Bontempelli, C Daniel, N Fyfe, L Jackson, H Young, D Moore (new recruit), B Dowling, B Grundy and I Heeney
Sunday: Z Fisher, H Sheezel, N Daicos, N Kreuger (new recruit), L Sullivan, T Green, Z Butters and D Houston
Gawn receives the captaincy duties with VC Zorko banked. Fantastic return after selecting him over Flanders last round. Dunkley purchase pre bye has been disappointing given the outlay. Floor and consistency expected but was hoping for the high ceiling more often. Considered Sinclair but opted for Moore instead as this would allow Daniel (M9), Fyfe (F7) and A Schoenmakers (D7) rather than pushing Stewart to the bench once we exit the byes. 21 available this round so hopefully third time lucky for Daniel repaying the faith so that the three remaining rookies do not count this round.

Was aware that Windhager would tag new recruit Neale and in hindsight realised after Qtr time that I should have reversed my trade 😞

The higher the entry price, the higher the fall and therefore there should be expectation of failure given the significant return on investment required in comparison to other players who may outperform them for a lower cost. Establish price ranges in which you seek to purchase certain players or for certain positions to avoid scenarios in which $600k upgrade targets consistently under-deliver on expectations and lost points are being chased.
