Are people holding Ridley
I am.
Zero Thatcher only missing a week apparently, and Scott has shown that if possible he'd prefer to play Ridley as a distributor. BZT getting injured last week impacted last week, and not having Reid or Stewart to come in due to injury means that this week is likely affected, but I don't mind the long term prospects, and have far more pressing needs elsewhere. (Note, I have Daicos. If I didn't have Daicos that might have been a different decision, but there's no must have amongst the others at that price range)
I don't have Rids, just wanted to throw out there that Saints have been the easiest team for defenders to score against. Even if he plays accountable this week, a respectable score should be on the cards. If they can somehow free him, it could be big. If he was my only avenue to Daicos, I'd probably pull the trigger.

Agree both are must haves. Couldn't really go wrong with either first, however Darcy rucking alone this week and coming off a lower BE.

I'd also back Oliver to clear 117...downside risk is maybe 10 points, upside is 30+
Yeah gut feel is Cameron
I missed him last year and have Errol in other formats and in sc draft teams
Always go with the gut

The captaincy is annoying
I’ve taken clarrys 113 and 135 so far so as you say the high side is 18+ points the downside is -4 points on this years evidence
Still torn
Gonna annoy me til 4:30 tomorrow arvo before I have to pull the trigger either way on the madden loop haha

What's everyone thinking for D6 between Cowan and Constable? I'll be benching one and fielding one.

[Assuming Constable is named]

Cowan against GWS - he looked really good last week and seems to be building in confidence. But do they give him the big task of Toby Greene?

Constable against his old side Geelong - could have a point to prove? But given he's extended bench, he probably has to be some sort of risk of being subbed out even if named?

I'm tempted to go Cowan as I think he's a lower sub risk, but have a feeling Constable might go quite decent against his old team. Anyone else weighing this one up too?

So torn
Take the Neale vc 117 or go Clarry
Thinking safety but 17k overall not sure

Also
Gulden vs d Cameron in this week

D Cameron looks great
Ticks a lot of boxes *1 ruck so easier points
Good ceiling and month of No cox

Gulden
Looks a must have
Barely got out of first gear and going 110

Think both are must haves and I’ll get the other down the line

What would you guys do for both? Opinions appreciated
I got Cameron in to replace Gawn but I think he should be first anyway because he will probably make you about 80 grand in the next 2 weeks whereas I don't think Gulden will. I want both too but still want to see if Gulden can maintain the rage. And RE: Clarry, I'd back him in to beat 117

His last quarter definitely saved us with him on field. Low key hoping that Constable is the sub so it ruins people with the E on Wilmot.
I wouldn't mind getting some reward for straight-fielding Wilmot after seeing Constable on the extended bench. On the other hand, I hope that isn't at the expense of a good cow. Hopefully he subs on early and scores 40 - a balanced victory.
