Discussion SC 2021: Rookie Discussion

[Bomber18]

FWIW if I was in charge of Bomber selections it would be Cox and Waterman into the 22, Dev Smith out and drop Zaharakis back to being the sub.

Have put in a request for Bomber18 and myself to be in charge of team selections, yet to hear back from Truck...😋

Think he’s been reading!

Rookies of interest this week based purely on scoring - Byrnes, Weightman, Madden, Reeves and Wilson.

First four probably the most interest to me but what's the JS of these guys like do we think.

Weightman looks a livewire and commands the ball but who didn't against the Saints.

Madden no idea.

Thought Byrnes looked really good Saturday night, did he have more midfield minutes, seemed to find plenty of it.

I guess putting pride aside, Highmore could also be an option even though I traded him out this round.

Madden no idea.

Probably holds his spot until Lester or Gardiner come back. After that he'd be 50/50 with Coleman (Ah Chee moving into whichever role).

What about T.Garner?
Seems pretty consistent?..........So far.
Except a big price tag for his scores

I’m keen on Madden if he’s selected, Anthony Scott's 18 on the weekend means it’s probably time to jump off, Weightman probably a bit expensive.

 

[Bomber18]

Good sign for Byrnes, cmon Highmore....!

Would like to know what Cox has to do get a nomination. Was every bit as good as Weightman on the weekend but also has half a season of good performances to back it up, which surely has to count for something.

 

[The Experiment]

Zach Sproule is of interest to me....round 12 bye the biggest appeal

Just played his 3rd game after playing in round 2 and round 8, scores have improved each time scoring a 69 on the weekend. Kicked 2 goals in each of his appearances.

Just had his first price rise now at 160k....short term JS good with Hogan injury? GWS form on the improve...? Has just turned 23 so not a 'rookie' as such?

Anyone got any thoughts? Or should I just cough up the cash for Weightman and be done with it?

 

[Herbie66]

after 10 Rounds which rookies have made that magical $ 150k profit

Butts 154,600
Koschitze 153,400

JordOn 242,200
Powell 197,300
Scott * 179,300
Gulden 165,600
McNeil 151,100

Flynn 227,200
Campbell , T * 177,000

Scott * 179,300
Rowe 177,300
Campbell, T * 177,000
Warner 171,000


Only 11 (so far) , maybe we need to adjust our expectations profit wise in the future

I never started (or traded in) Bergman, Butts & Campbell. Traded out Ko****ze & Scott way too early

That bye is just perfect, and he looks decent. But Leon Cameron...I think if he is named I will take hi,m and pray.

I started all except Butts, McNeil & Campbell.

Didn't expect McNeil to become a much better pick than Brockman at the start of the year!

I think McNeil & Scott are (were) the 2 biggest surprises.

And Campbell , the "forgotten" rookie ruck.

Fine balancing act between holding some of them and giving them every chance of making $$$ or adjusting (turfing) them too early.

 

[Courtesans]

Keeping all of my rookies through until the byes. Only have two non playing in Sharp and Fullerton. See what happens and presents as downgrades in Rd 13 and 14.

Cash generation is utterly irrelevant at this point. Which bye is better and which one are you more confident is playing in the other bye weeks? Any games they play after the byes is an added bonus as a potential injury cover.

Been dropped a couple of times after decent performances so will have to keep playing really well to stay in, having said that, I've really liked his last two games and think he should stay in but Flynn was better and Himmelberg and Finlayson are senior players. Greene and Hogan injuries sure help though.

Personally I think Weightman has slightly better JS in that there isn't an obvious name he's actually keeping out of the side right now, they've got a half dozen names that can play the position but he's been really good the last two in it.

First paragraph spot on Wogi.

First paragraph spot on Wogi.

Probably should add an exception to it for those focused primarily on winning leagues though as they should be holding more trades and actually chasing one more round of rookie gains

Leagues for me, haven’t the trades to play with. Cash out Flynn, Jordan to start with.

 

[Toothless Tigers]

Be interesting to see how CCJ goes now that Lynch is out for 5-6 weeks!
