Discussion 2021 Round 3: Teams & In Game Discussion

[The Experiment]

please explain

It will cost you 6k to go from Sharp to Jordon, maybe I have misinterpreted what you mean as a 'cash grab'?

 

[scarfaceclaw]

I was hoping sharp would make 20k so I could trade him to Chapman next week. Should have just kept a fyfe or Briggs but, maybe sharp will be good!

Neale named...
No Greenwood...
Decisions, decisions ... 🤔

lol, for me luxury trade, Sharp dropped, was projected to increase by $23k roughly, Jordan projected to increase by $74k. Sharp might not get a chance for a few rounds, whereas Jordan, if he continues to play like this will make 100+ by round 4. I'd prefer to have the rookie cash gen where available. Definitely not bringing in Tex. Although he'll have a decent rise.

Keep?

I want to keep but they said he (Neale) couldn't bend over properly to pick up the ball.

 

[Zoku Pops]

Was hoping my hand would be forced with Neale (Greenwood in) but as if SC was ever going to be that easy!

Bloody tough call, absolutely no idea which way to go at this point

 

[Herbie66]

Brisbane play the first game of the round , those concerned about his scoring , play him on the bench with the E on him

not that difficult to work out especially if you have a donut to use

Unfortunately he has been able to get plenty of coaches to bend over for him, so not sure if things are going to improve or not ... 😬

 

[Vicwood]

Do you have Scott?

If so, could then go Fullarton E and swap mid/fwds around to get Scott and his DNP on field to get Fullarton’s score if required.

Assuming Scott gets dropped which I think is a 90% chance of happening.[/QUO

Fullarton E. Will assess after the Pies match don't think he goes large against Grundy

Could field Gulden at F6.

Impey also on the reader.

Doesn’t protect against the cash drop unfortunately and I think that is at least 50% of the concern.

 

[Herbie66]

Just interviewed Walker on the News.

The 2 things he was working on over preseason were tackling and with the introduction of the "stand" rule more space has created more leading lanes to move into and utilise.

 

[toxic]

Not a good loop till round 5
Had all playing rookies so that is disappointing.

Rd5 might be lions bye

Watch this space

I am not a big believer in the premium cash drop though , if you start them you keep them the majority of times.

Probably need 22-24 trades for downgrades/upgrades doesn't leave a lot to continue trade out underperforming premiums all the time.

Surprised so many started him to be honest given his starting price , pre season concerns etc etc.

Speaking on Triple M’s Roo & Ditts, Walker revealed a bet the pair placed during the set shots. “Little story from the game, Buddy Franklin owes me a carton of Ruskis,” Walker said. “I had a long shot outside 50 and he said the only bloke on this ground who can kick that far is me. “Later on, he was having a set shot and I said ‘we’ll put a carton of beer on it, actually no, I heard you like cruisers, no you like Lemon Ruskis don’t you?’” After Franklin conceded a small smile, Walker said he received a message later on Monday. “I got him, I could see him smirking a bit,” he said.

So he's still drinking 6 packs? 😜

I hear you, but there is always opportunity in adversity and at his price there is the opportunity to free up some cash and rebalance resource allocation across the team to fix other issues. Certainly not ideal, but the cards have now been dealt and everyone needs to play theirs to best advantage.

Don't think Essendon would like being forced to have their Bye in Round 5 instead of Round 13.

I'm sure the AFL would shuffle the fixtures around before forcing a BYE this early in a 23 round season.

Downed them with the best when he was under age playing for North Broken Hill so wouldn't think too much has changed 😉
