I see Neale has a Break even of 63. Will move over 700k in the next week. And possible become 720k by round 5. Is Neale a must get this week. I’ve got Bont and his history Against GWS is Poor.?

If you can do Bont to Neale without compromising your 2nd trade (if you are planning to use it), then I would absolutely pull the trigger on that trade.

Has anyone heard anything about Mitchell , Patton , Burgoyne , Frost being out this week for the Hawks , and Pickett , Houli , Grimes and Riewoldt for the Tigers ,

Hope this is just a bad bad rumor and i'm wrong ( or the person who told me is ) trouble is the person is nearly spot on all the time.

Apparently Mitchell hurt his shoulder and had it strapped at training. News report said it wouldn't stop him from playing however... Not sure how accurate this assessment is.

RICHMOND premiership defender Liam Baker will miss Thursday night's clash with Hawthorn as the Tigers strongly consider bringing back Josh Caddy from a calf injury.

Baker has returned home to Western Australia to deal with a personal family matter which will force at least one change from the side that drew with Collingwood last week.

Fantastic trades IMO. I never understood the interest in Long personally but Simpkin seems as likely as anyone to fill a breakout spot in our sides.

I’m not sure how I feel about Pittonet at the minute, ideally would have liked another look but I much prefer him to Doedee.
In Hindsight I prefer Pittonet to Doedee too!

Wondering about the likelihood of Georgiades forcing his way back into Port's starting 22.

I could turn him into Sturt (if named) or Cameron(if not dropped).

Eeeek no dusty stupid to trade him out for a week? Probably....will I.....probably?

Dusty to Howe via Brander and Cavarra to Sturt (if playing)

Ceglar and Doedee get a reprieve and next week they can become dusty amd a rookie if they spud it up. What could go wrong? Haha

Considering
Dusty to Bailey Smith
Cavarra to Pittonet

means I miss out on Bennell, Rivers, possibly Sturt, but I retain Doedee and Bewley this way

I was thinking of grabbing Neale for Sloane but now I want to keep Sloane with Dusty out. So I think I will go Dusty to Neale. Feel there is more acceptable 450kish players in the fwd line to cover Dusty going forward.

At this stage rookie forwards are outscoring the rookie mids so I would rather play them on field than M7,8.

Who is the best premo to bring in? Can be on any line and any price.

Thinking Neale but 690k is a lot to pay this year and don’t like paying top dollar for any player during the year.

Could be 760k come round 6 and might be a good option to go down to the <600k underpeformed premo. Plus giving you 160k+ to make the jump from a midpricer also.

Was just thinking of bringing in 2 rookies (Sturt, Cameron) but the injury to Dusty and concerns over Grundy bring quite a few other options into play. Pittonet at R3 suddenly looks a lot more viable if Grundy is a chance to miss. Alternatively, Dusty to Fyfe is also doable but it would mean only taking 1 rookie - not sure if I want to miss a good cash cow, so hoping Sturt doesn’t get selected as this would make the decision easier. Will have to wait for team drops tomorrow to firm up thinking.

I don't know what is going on, but Fanfooty lists all of these changes as well as more:
