Clark and Darcy the only real worries from this week, to get Clark up to Daicos I need to free up 120k, Flanders down to chandler allows that, which will also leave me $3k short of moving Darcy to English

Wondering if dropping Chesser down to Long today is worth it to release the funds for the above next week

1613/15. Given I scored about 1700 last week, an improvement. Traded in Daicos and Ziebell so feeling happy.

Ginbey, Constable, Mackenzie, Witts, Gulden, Mills and Green to go. Hoping for no more injuries as I managed to avoid Gawn (have Witts/Marshall).

I'm still uncertain about DC; from what I read he was still playing forward a lot; having said that, so was Sean Darcy apparently, though with the way SC is going this year he'll probably go 180 on Callum Jamieson as soon as you trade him.
I watched Cameron yesterday and he looked good, not only in his ruck craft but general play as well.

15/1714 (Oliver)...got scaled down double figures points from when I was looking last night waiting for the final scaling, which leaves a sour taste this morning, and makes me fear full Sunday carnage.

Otherwise it's been going ok. Couple of dodgy rookie scores, but that's fully expected. 2 "premos", 5 "rookies" (<250k) to come, so could easily go sideways, but projected over 2100 which would make me happy

Sheezel should've got a clanger for deliberate out of bounds and Freo should've a had a shot to win the match.
Sheezel wasn't involved in that play, it was Howe that made the clearing kick.

He saved the game for them not long before by keeping the ball from going through for a behind and kicking the ball off the goalline.

Going to be difficult to not trade Darcy out. Your thoughts on Darcy @Vicwood ??
I will need to watch the replay. I was watching the WB v Saints.

-5 sums at half time sums it up for Darcy. Reports also suggest spent most of the first half in the FWD line ?

English looks fitter stronger and smarter around the ground this year

Hindsight should of gone Cameron at F3 and English R1.

Thinking Darcy-English trade next week.

The trouble is, English just looks like English always does 2 rounds in. Durability is always the concern with him and the way this season is going I'm just as likely to have him miss games as soon as I bring him in. But if he continues his form those of us without will find themselves a good way back in the pack.

North Melb.
16/1,737 - Laird (c)
Worpel, Mackenzie
Setterfield, Witts, Constable
Ginbey

First trade of Fyfe > JHF didn't quite worked out as planned. :LOL:

So many players to target for next round so 3 trades ain't going to cut it.

Started with a MP trio of Setterfield, Hopper & Worpel so no room for the breakout candidates of LDU/Green. Hopper did well yesterday so Setterfield & Worpel are on notice today.

Too early to call whether this was the right play or not but I do have a plan, it's always good to have a plan.

Can't have all the 'new' toys but hoping to enjoy some play time with those I end up buying next round.

Collingwood are going to win a lot of games this year with their midfield rampaging the way they are. Cox was 59% ToG yesterday which I would imagine he will hover around against all single ruck sides.

Clear best buy for a Gawn replacement this week. I’ll gamble on an English down patch/injury in the hopes of picking him up later.

Need to gamble on an injury I think. 1 soft tissue already in the off season would have him >50/50 for a repeat I reckon.
