Any suggestions for a rookie downgrade this week?
With Whitfield likely to miss I've got to move Wilkie on to a warm body or face a donut. At the point where I'll pick someone off one or zero games, don't have the luxury of waiting for bubbles any more haha.
There’s none that are guaranteed a game this week but names like Hinge, Rotham and Hately are the best bets should they be named.

Rotham could be a chance if Hurn is out?

Not an option this week due to the bye, but Griffin Logue could come in for Alex Pearce, if he doesn't get up for round 13, according to Ross Lyon. $167k defender, not an ideal price, nor do we know about his JS, shakey at best.

Pencilled him in as soon as Pearce went down. Hoping he gets named round 13 where I will trade him in straight away.

I reckon there is a good chance I go early on this bloke. Need to start moving on so R14 mid rookies and non players.
He was bloody impressive but if you can, I’d wait til at least R13 (wouldn’t take him this round). Shiel, Fantasia and a few others should be back so I’d just want to make sure he’s named alongside them.

He’s not really in Woosha’s “favorites” as it’s taken him a long time to get games. Very promising though!

How does the Rookie landscape look as we head into the first of the MBRs...?
*Has the RD12 bye

*G Logue $164,300 - Could he replace A Pearce? Played 13/43.2 in 2017 with a high of 65.

J Rotham $123,900 [56,98] - May be a replacement for Hurn?
M Hinge $123,900 [56,73] - Dropped last round and not even part of the group of EMG's, hard to see him returning after the Lions win.
*R Gardner $102,400 [41] - Picked up in the MYD and straight into the senior team, has D/F status.

*D Clarke $147,700 [99] - Played the 1 game last year for 34, look good with a run with role on Cripps.
J Hately $148,800 [95,85] - One of the what if Rookie story of 2019, could niggles to Whitfield & Greene open the door again?
*B Bewley $117,300 [49,47] - Could have scored decent last round had he converted his chances, has the RTB factor.

C Coleman-Jones $123,900 [60] - Should Balta need a rest, CCJ could be in the reckoning, has R/F status.

Anyone else worth nothing...?

Rotham could play for Hurn yes, but would probably be turfed straight out again when he's back.
I already have Hately so would love him to get named, but it will probably be at the expense of Whitfield who I also own so meh
Hinge would be a miracle but stranger things have happened I guess.

There were a couple of Port rookies who looked pretty promising before being dropped - Garner and Atley from memory. Not sure what their chances are of making a comeback

Have usually stuffed up my rookie trading but so glad to have kept Duursma. My trading plans had me trading Duursma out every week but Drew and Moore out a few weeks ago forced me to hold Duursma. Luckily he’s banged out his two highest scores in that time, very crucial for my scoring in the last two weeks!
I'm probably looking at either him or Hore as a keeper TBH, Hore the more likely of the two for that.
