Any North fans care to share who would be closest to making the 22 out of Curtis Taylor and Kyron Hayden

Appreciated
Might be worth sticking this here
Looking for a floating donut - who may play
Would think Ahern is ahead of them both

Great question, very interested in any views on Naish’s JS, especially given he locks out soon!
Go no idea to be honest but Hardwick has been pretty good with his rookies ... seems to give then a run of games which I like and then it comes down to them how long it lasts ...

The rumor on tiges bf board was senior tiges missing this week was actually discipline related.
??? last weekend.
No idea if any truth in it

I'd go Boak. I just can't get excited about Ryan. I've been disappointed by many many Freo SC defenders in my time. Stephen Hill plays defence as well and is a chance to come back this week or next. I wonder if that changes anything for Ryan.

Blakely I see as a possible midfielder so I am very keen to bring him in, he'd probably be my only other consideration to those two at a cheaper price.

D Clarke and J Sicily (replacing N Answerth and B Smith)
VS
B Bewley and J Dunkley (replacing N Answerth and L Baker)

Current def: J Lloyd, R Laird, H Andrews, Z Williams, B Smith, M Hore, (X Duursma, R Gardner)
Current fwd: P Dangerfield, T Kelly, I Heeney, R Gray, J Westhoff, L Baker (C Burgess, R Young)

D Clarke option will involve Setters and Baker out for Dunkley and Hately next round whereas B Bewley and J Dunkley would allow Setterfield to become Clarke and cash to be used for 1 of B Smith to J Sicily, Goldy to M Gawn via a B Smith to P Naish downgrade or cash kept for Duursma to Hurn after byes with Smith kept longer.

I think it's dubious as to whether Bewley keeps his spot in the side so I'd take Clarke and Sicily.

I think Dunkley is overpriced now as well so I'd just look to let him go.

Thanks. Would you still target Dunkley for the remaining fwd spot or consider Mundy/Daniel, as I could execute a Baker to Daniel trade this week in conjunction with grabbing Clarke whilst having roughly 60,000 remaining.

Daniel over Dunkley for sure for me! Extra week of premium scoring should be factored in!

Thanks. Hadn’t really considered Daniel as Dunkley was the main target and annoyed I selected the Hoff over him in RD8 and his ceiling compensating for the Hoff and Gray being situated at F5 and F6 was an appealing factor. Regarding Daniel he possess most of the characteristics I value such as high disposal efficiency, tendency to kick rather than handball thus decreasing his dependence on amassing a large amount of the ball.

Therefore Daniel and Gray would be selected this week joining T Kelly, Danger, I Heeney and the Hoff as well as D Clarke in the mids. B Smith would be kept an extra week and will likely make way next round for J Sicily/L Ryan.

I think that all sounds like a good plan (y)

I do have Dunkley, but think he's closer to a 100 avg given his role changes. He had a shift to more fwd time in R9 when I brought him and I was fearing the worst.

Daniel seems likely to push 100 avg too given his role as the designated kicker, I think I'd be happy enough to save the money and take Daniel.

Bont v Fyfe?

Bont means I trade Balta and keep Darling, Fyfe the reverse.
I'd go Fyfe... if you're not one who worries about injury risk.

But I've already got him

So my X vs Y is Bont vs Zerrett for final mid spot. Almost feels like flip a coin.
