967 (Phillipe) Moved up the ranks from 6.5k to 3.6k totally unexpected with only 3 DGR players with a 4, 2 & 1 from three of my Stikers 2 of those scores counting. I'll hold Phillipe on the bench in appreciation for producing 40% of my teams score. Don't think I've ever been so stoked with a top 8% round rank haha

12 DGRs for Rd4 with last boost still in hand. 74k bank available to switch Richardson trade in to O'Neill, is he worth the extra coin? Or Perhaps upgrade Bazley to McGurk?

Who are you targeting from the Thunder for DGR 6 ?

How much Bank will you need to get those preferred targets ?

Ideally from Round 5 onwards everyone probably will need 5-6 + SGR premiums so be able to hold the likes of Overton (until he leaves , Round 6 Bye) , Philippe , Rogers , Seifert , Short (Round 6 Bye) , Sutherland etc

Bazley , Boyce , Thornton might be problems after this round trying to move on without enough Bank

Strikers with the Bye in Round 6 + Doran , Whitney & Wood

Made a decision to go for Billings instead of Fergus O'Neil. Given his BE it appears now or never, and the Thunder have an upcoming double. Means Surherland, Rogers and Billings in, Curran, Maxwell and Edwards out. I might regret it but you can overhink these things. Barring any last minute injury news, I'm sticking with this. Between 6-8 DGR players, pending Weatherald and Bazley.

Given the type of ground the Renegades are playing at I’m almost tempted by another. Of those two, I’d probably vc sunderland. :p
I thought the Showground was surprisingly decent to bat on last game, so it'll be interesting to see how it comes up today.

I'd also expect Marvel to be a little better to bat on too, although that wouldn't be hard.

Have Zampa and L Scott in my team already for the DGR but now thinking it would be a mistake to put either onfield. My only donut is Konstas (other than Doran for VC loop) who plays the first game so no effective loop.

Anyone putting either of these guys onfield?

Scored 1,158 in the end which saw me jump from 316th to 12th overall. Trades made last week were Connolly, Dorff, Morris and J.Richardson -> Maxwell, Dwarsh, S.Johnson & McSweeney. Lucked out with Johnson captain after Edwards failed and owning only 2 other heat options who were both middle order batters. Also lucked out getting Phillipe last week over Dwarsh. If i had of got Dwarshius last round then i wouldn't have traded Phillipe in this week with far more attractive double options. Was worried fading Bartlett, Hosein and Walter but going the cheaper guys paid off in the end.

Can afford my ideal trades by exactly $0 this week, phewww. Glad picking McSweeney with a low breakeven despite thinking his last score was an outlier paid off. Maxwell, Dwarsh & McSweeney to M.Short, Rogers & O'Neill. Leaves my team like the below. 8 dgw guys, praying Doggett plays to get that up to 9. Will keep Curran as a loop for the week and look to offload next round. If Edwards misses again i'll likely trade McSweeney back in.

WKP - Seifert (Doran)

BAT - M.Short, Overton, Sutherland, J.Edwards, Phillipe (Renshaw, Harper)

BWL - T.Rogers, S.Johnson, O'Neill, Stoinis, Zampa (Curran, Doggett)

FLEX - Thornton

778 Bartlett (20 SI @ 38.9), Thornton dropped out

Probably my worst round ever, was set up really well with the 9 doubles, which like most was reduced to 7. Won't often have a good round when you have 2 of the top 20 scorers.

Going heavy on heat players was probably the thing that cost me, didn't expect them to roll over in both their games like they did but maybe should've thought about it more playing the Scorchers and Sixers.

Trades are pretty tricky this week, burning a boost on Allen's injury to Thornton in round 1 would've been really useful now.
