With a lot of rucks going big so far this round, anyone else looking at Trac to Ceglar?
I've done it. It'll probably backfire but you have to go with the trends, and ruckmen are going big right now. Even the elite inside midfielders are struggling to post big scores so I don't know how an inexperienced midfielder will go.

16/1761 (Grundy C)

Disappointing rookies onfield in Green & Budarick. From my keepers, only disappointment really is Houston. A little bit disappointed in Laird, was going well but fell short of the tonne in the end.

Dodged a few bullets in Brayshaw & Zuthrie who were in my team within the last hour before the first bounce today. Also been conflicted with Danger Vs Mitchell all preseason and in the end the De Boer tag scared me away, so Mitchell doesn't have much to chase tmr which should be good. Overall looking good so far, please no Sunday Carnage tmr.

Brayshaw the main disappointment. Had BZT, Green and Budarick on field as well.

Looking at Brayshaw/McAsey to Sturt/Howe next round!
That looks very good mate. Looks like you have me covered in our PL game!
Oh nice. Completely forgot about league matches!

Think I’ll have similar ins. Not sure I’m being a bit short sighted but not sure BZT is gonna cut it at D6 so something extreme might need to be done.

Haven't been posting much lately, busy as a cat burying a poo in a marble floor! Sorting all the stuff for the sale of my joint which is slated to settle tomorrow or Tuesday.

Looks like I'm 17/1582(C Martin), not much to come with Gaff, NicNat, Roberton, Starcevich and Taylor.

Trade outs at this stage are McAsey/Comben for Noble/Pittonet. Not happy with Brayshaws TOG or Crisp but they'll have to wait.

18/1826 (C) - Brodie Smith scored poorly and injured, Houston like many defenders. Green/BZW hurt, most have them on field I expect.

Bont/Danger soft, latter understandable (late trade from Neale as freeing cash up for next week). Naismith/Townsend very good for price.

At this stage Cavarra and Brodie Smith (not playing mids) my main concerns.

15/1421 (C-Jelly)

Sitting at the back of the pack mainly thanks to Brayshaw, Parish, BZT, Green an Guthrie combining for 5/230 and Jelly not saving the day with a huge C score.

On a positive note, every non rookie apart from Brayshaw and Parish has hit the tonne without going huge - Dusty top scorer with 126.

7 players to come on a Sunday is a little concerning, but fingers crossed that I can reach 2k.

21/2121 Grundy

Started off pretty solidly but have a bunch of 40s and 50s from rookies pulling it back. Just James Sicily to come.

Lots of out there picks have come off: Howe, Naismith, Fort however the downside is that only 2 of 5 600k mids scored 100.

I took Brodie Smith relatively early in my draft for that reason alone. Thought he was a real sniff at 100+ average if so. On fanfooty they reckon he was playing HFF :unsure::eek:
