Discussion Rookie Discussion

[jel]

Not good for Waterman... Broke it at training yesterday and the thoughts are that it requires surgery so probably out a while.

On second thoughts, I think Reid actually comes in for Ah Chee who has been really quiet lately. Reid plays a half-forward role and has great goal sense... so he's more likely to replace Ah Chee.

The most obvious replacement like for like for Waterman is Brander. Williams another option too, but Brander is a better like for like to keep the structure we have the same.

Simmo hates giving away team news early, lol So we'll have to wait for teams.

Not so great for Waterman, but super handy for my planned Rd 13 trades.

Brander ...... i remember someone with that name in my team once

I started with Gould and still have Gould in my RDT - did that another year also and carried a rookie all year that never played........Never said I was a clever coach.

“Nic Reid is going to debut for us. That’s really exciting. He’s a 24-year-old school teacher. He’s come from North Beach Footy Club and has played 100 ‘Amos’ (amateurs) games. We’re really proud that he is going to play for our club.” Adam Simpson drops a debutant!

cant believe I missed this, been trying to find a $ 102k player that is likely to play and one has already been announced to debut

welcome to my team Nic Reid, go well

So other than Sholl and Ruscoe, are there any other D downgrades? Need to get rid of Starc

And if the answer to that question is, not really: Sholl v Ruscoe?

Wasn't the Carlton guy who debuted last round a $ 123,900.00 defender ?

Gotrell? Scored 33. Don't know about his JS - anyone? I could probably take the risk if I didn't have Gould sitting there contemplating the inventive basslines of his namesake from Faith No More - or whatever he's doing, as my other D Em.

What is peoples take on Foot's (Syd) JS?

Need a rookie either this week or next, is he worth jumping on?

I'm hopping on, need some cash gen from somewhere, just hope he gets a few games.

Minario Frederick starting price was $ 117,300.00

After 5 games he is now priced at $ 117,100.00

Actually looked ok in the first quarter v Carlton.

His two really low scores have moved through his price cycle now and with a BE of 14 he is ready to moo!

5 games in a row so the coaches must like what he is doing 😀

I am going to monitor him.

Funny thing is if I need to downgrade D Cameron Round 14 , Frederick could be the best option available.

Stratton dropped $$$ again.

This year's Balta? He lost value early on last year before getting a ton later in the year.

I listened to him on the radio one game and he was in the thick of it , looked good in the opening quarter against Carlton.

The 5 games has me interested.

Not sure how many new F rookies will appear in the remaining rounds , hoping Maginness debuts in Round 14/15.

Gould won't help me if he appears.

Might see Bergman before the season's out. ($148,800 FWD).

@Lost In The Sky have you heard anything re Ben Johnson? doesn't appear on any injury lists or scratch match discussions..

No idea to be honest. Hasn't appeared in the last few scratch matches and as you said not on the injury list.

Maybe a bit of managing a first year player. Or could be away from the club on a personal matter. Bit strange we haven't heard anything.

Told you, he's this year's Balta. Still time for him to get his 100 pt game.

I could've , should've , would've traded him in instead of Foot.

Still trying to work out why I traded in Mills when the last 2 days I was set on Saad (tried for someone different)
