Not sure why he thinks he can't loop there via Webster? Yes you'd be taking the lesser of Neser and Short, but whoever ends up being locked in as captain would post a score greater than abs(neser - short) wouldn't they?
If Stanlake doesn't play, you'll have a VC loop.

Alternatively, if you want to safeguard against the 6ers v Thunder being a washout, swap Nesser down to your BWL bench in place of DC. Then if the 6ers v Thunder game is no good, you'll have Neser to cover Morris in BWL, whilst Webster/DC will open the VC loop for you in BAT via MShort.

This also gives you a last minute OUT in the case that the 6ers v Thunder game goes ahead AND if you don't like your VC score. Swap Morris with DC, Morris to avoid taking MShort's score and DC to loop Neser's score off your BWL bench, provided Stanlake doesn't play, otherwise you'll have the lower of their scores.
Thanks guys. I wasn't keen to take the lower of anyone + Short's score, seeing Short has scored less than 20 7/9 times but i did realise i'd get a free look at Short's score so in the event of a miracle where he did post something decent, i would be able to bench Morris to avoid any repeat of what happened tonight.

As it turns out, i wasted my VC on Phillipe on the off chance he went bonkers in a short game so will need to plonk the C on someone anyway :oops:

I now have a ‘free transfer’. Plan was to trade Dwarshuis in this week, out next and make a little cash. Haven’t done that.

Have Neser, Cutting, Qais, Mujeeb and DC for the round 12/13 doubles. Getting ABD tomorrow. Plans to get Khan, Wade, Short and 2/3 (probably 2) of Carey/Head/Weatherald prior to 12.

1 trade leftover for this round.

After a one week punt (maybe 2) that should go up in price. Under 210k. Trading out Livingstone (gotta go).

Thought about going straight to Head but may prevent me from getting Khan next week which is a priority.

Any suggestions? Lamichhane top of my list at the moment.

Can you get Rashid over ABD this week? I’m not sure ABD is a must get. Certainly a nice to have but Rashid is elite fantasy scorer. ABD “just” bats and he’s $220k

Who do you have to trade out from your team in Round 11 & 12 though now ?

Does that weaken your best XI
I don't think my team has been weakened, Shoosh and Curran may well lose a fair bit of cash this round plus I added Pattinson with ABdV and Cutting who are probably all I want for their DGR, I think those 3 are better than Nair, Laughlin and Livingstone for round 11.

Round 11 trades will revolve around getting Curran back (maybe) plus a Striker and a Canes player, with Carey and Short added the week after. Those trades will give me 8 DGR's for round 12 with a spare trade. I already have my preferred 3 Heat players and none of the Gades but I'll have 4 trades up my sleeve for adjustments in round 13. Not even sure I want Gades players apart from Richo, but I think I'll have the opportunity of having 7 DGR players in round 13, 8 if I pass on Curran

Sounds like you have it all thought out and planned then.

I can actually, and have definitely considered it.

Break evens had me going ABD first but I could switch it up. I was planning be’s with the hope of holding both Curran and Marsh to the end instead of one and Morris/NCN. But I didn’t plan Wade being this cheap.

Would then need to bring in someone sub 160k still alongside Rashid.

So with 3 trades to burn I have a clean slate and not clear who to get apart from Pattinson.

What I am not totally getting is why are so many of you targeting Heat players right now? Apart from Pattinson and his BE?

I get we need to start to build up for those late DGRs but it’s still a few rounds away for the Heat.

ABD because of who he is and I get that but I feel he could wait.

Mujeeb? Cutting? Lynn? I’m not sure, why would I want them now?

They play in the only dry game this week and people have 3 trades to burn. AB was comfortable against Rashid so his big score could come tommorow

I guess many are factoring in getting Carey , Finch , Richardson & Short in about Round 11 in their thinking and plans.

Head & Wade will become common targets.

That's 6 trades gone.

Rengades on the bye.
Weather concerns for the Sixers, Hurricanes and Thunder this round.
Scorchers coming off the DGW and teams likely to have 3+ and looking to reduce that figure.

Leaves Strikers, Stars and Heat.
Strikers and Heat with upcoming doubles and assume more appealing options from the Heat which is why they have been targeted.

Most already have plans for most of their trades for R12 and R13, Carey, DShort, Finch & Richardson to name a few.

If you don't get Heat or Strikers over the next couple of rounds, then you may not have the trades to get who you want for those DDGRs.

Preparing for their doubles as few before me have mentioned.

Cutting in particular i think is a great trade in pending teams tomorrow. Same team as last game and he’s an excellent in. Potential to open, if not a late hitter. 2 spinners means they probably don’t bowl Renshaw, so he’s likely to get 4 overs and potentially even 1 or 2 at the death.

So I’ll likely get Head to join Neser. I like Mujeeb, but i wonder how far up the “premo” list he is? Obviously AB and Lynn on my list too.

Wade in next round,
