Discussion 2021 Round 6: Teams & In Game Discussion

[Zim^zuM]

Went early on Jones to avoid donut. Many did. Early on stocker if named hehe?

 

[Darkie]

It seems like the question for a few of us is when do we put a line through Highmore?

Sandringham play Saturday, we’ll get a bit of an idea leading up to that game I’d suspect.

 

[whiteTiga2k]

'Like' because what would we do without @Professor.
'Dislike' because donuts .

Want to dislike - but like the fact we know early to look at other options.

May have to bring in my 6th premium defender to cover that role
worth considering Stewart?

who can we trade him to though? he's made no money at all.

Perversely this actually helps me.
I was looking at how to get him in on the bubble, but now I can wait and do other preferred moves.

Well Franklin and Hickey will not have any impact on Campbell so seems very likely he misses.

McDonald could possibly get a reprieve.

That’s true, although at some point a rookie correction (rather than a downgrade) might be needed, especially if other defenders keep missing.

Maybe Mansell? Slim pickings.

Mansell looks solid enough from what I've seen, but I'm fairly sure he'd be a trade I'd end up regretting because he's unlikely to stay in the side long enough to make much cash. No idea what I'll do if one of Clark or Highmore can't get back in.

Thanks - that’s good colour. Tough to land a spot in that side.

I am considering just copping a donut, given Ridley should presumably be back next week.

 

[Herbie66]

Not sure if Jones will automatically get his spot back , have a number of options in defence to bring in.

Powell-Pepper will be close to returning , no idea on Rockliff and what he has done wrong (maybe can't play all 3 of him , Drew & Wines together)

Butters & Duursma due back.

Very competitive side to get into , once in their suspect incumbents will be keen to stay.

 

[Herbie66]

Highmore , Jones & Ridley in defence , looks like another 🍩 this week.

Don't really want to waste a Jones - > Mansell trade in case he vanishes as well.

And this is why you don't go early on rookies...arrgh. Brought Jones in for Clark last week as had Highmore and effen HELMET on the bench.

Really need a lucky break with Highmore this week.

Well that blows if true. I actually held on to Campbell last week with this game against the Suns coming up in mind. But looks like I lost $14K and gained a crap onfield Rd5 score for nothing.

 

[Goodie's Guns]

While the Saints hope Clark will be fit to face the Power, Darragh Joyce appears a selection contender after training with the preferred 'A' team in his absence in the 18-versus-18 match simulation.

No mention of Highmore. Fingers and toes crossed.

Joyce has been an emg for them the last couple of weeks, Highmore hasn't, looks like he might be ahead of him in the pecking order at Moorabbin right now.
