On field - Goldy (against Lycett/Ryder) vs O’Brien (against Marshall)
Check out the Fanfooty SC by opponent stats ... from memory I did this earlier in the week and Goldy had done okay against Port and well against WC (probably NN and Lycett).

I was weighing up exactly the same thing and decided to field Goldy. I would also always err this way if it was lineball, as much as ROB is doing well so far.

I find Fanfooty difficult to navigate. Where exactly can you find the Fanfooty SC by opponent stats. thanks Darkie.

Thanks for the tip. Certainly was only considering this week given Lycett/Ryder haven’t been giving up much to opposition rucks (and beat up on Gawn!).

Will back Goldy in to fire up along with rest of the Roos.

No worries ... personally for the SC sites I use frequently for player info (eg Fanfooty, Footywire and AFL Tables), I just Google the players name and (eg) Fanfooty, and that basically always takes you to the player's page most quickly (better than going to the site, and then searching for the player, in my experience).

Once on Fanfooty, they have SC and DT scores by both opponent and ground. They are all in the top right box on the player page, in the lower half of that box. The ground info is helpful for some players but personally I think opponents are most important, especially for one on on each type players like rucks.

Thanks for info Darkie, (y)
It is funny that mostly it's easier to find anything via google and not on the specific site!

Josh Kelly vs Fyfe from next round onwards
Would lean towards J Kelly due to possessing less injury risk than N Fyfe but confident both could easily average 115 from now onwards.

J Kelly:
Only 3 games below 90 from his past 40 and 12/40 120+.
Possess one of the most supercoach friendly game styles.
Penchant to perform better in wins than losses.
Wins: 119.15 from 27 (8/27 below 100, 11/27 120+)
2017: 119.31 from 13 (3/13 below 100, 6/13 120+)
2018: 121.91 from 11 (4/11 below 100, 5/11 120+)
2019: 108.33 from 3 (1/3 below 100)

Losses:
97.36 from 11 (7/11 below 100)
2017: 101.33 from 6 (2/6 below 100)
2018: 91.5 from 4 (4/4 below 100)
2019: 97 from 1

Upcoming fixture before byes is very appealing (Stk, Haw, Carl, Melb, GC, Adel, NM)

But Fyfe is cheaper and has the more consistent ceiling so depends how risk averse you are as potentially and historically he might require a trade out in the latter half of the season as he has only managed 19 games post bye in the past 4 seasons (2015= 7, 2016=0, 2017= 9, 2018= 3).

Started Fyfe and J Kelly is almost assured a spot due to being my favourite player from a fantasy and non fantasy perspective.

Jkelly v macrae in a week or two when they are the same price will be an interesting one.
Hear, hear.

Have 3 spots left in the mids pencilled in for J Kelly, P Cripps and J Macrae (current mids are N Fyfe, C Oliver, L Neale, Z Merrett, R Sloane) but the only problem will be trying to fit them all in due to the poor/slow cash generation but sacrificing S Walsh at some stage will likely be an avenue to P Cripps/J Macrae.

Walsh to macrae in rd13 seems perfect but always scary if they drop in price and you want to leave it for a few weeks and risk then shooting back up. With Kelly as an alternative though I think it might be worth it.

Great post thanks! I am leaning towards J Kelly...i started fyfe and traded him out but not opposed to bring him back as he has a good bye but macrae being cheap in a few weeks makes a difference.
