On Doc v Ridley, the BE's really shouldn't be a factor. It's largely irrelevant as I'm assuming the one you're keeping will be a season long keeper anyway so price changes don't mean a thing.

I would simply be turfing the player you think will average less for the season from here.
100% agree, but I am going down the track of picking Docherty back up later at a lower price. It was the only way I could get #35 in.

Crazy wasting a trade! But with 36, I feel we have wriggle room to fix the system.

Does anyone happen to know how Marshall goes at the G compared to Marvel?
There isn't a large enough sample to make any conclusions: he's scored poorly there for a premo but this was when he was sharing the ruck with players like Paddy Ryder. We are about to find out how he goes there tonight with a lock on the ruck role. I doubt it impacts his scoring that much either positively or negatively as a premo.

English V.C 139 x2
Baker E 95
Ashcroft 80
McKenna 57
Wilmott 69 Depending what happens with Chesser/Constable

Overall, happy with last night. Finally nailed a V.C even if it was accidental. Meant to use LDU but dozed off for a minute or two before the game and next thing i know its halfway through the first quarter.

I have made 5 trades in the last fortnight, and probably feel the same way. I bet come Rd 16 we are all desperately clinging to our last trades wishing we hadn't burnt through them early.....
Especially considering the injuries to premos so far and it's only round 2 😲
Can see some early torching of guys like Neale and Macrae coming back to bite a few teams later in the year.

For those that started English, well done, massive jump in the pack

For those who bought in English last week or this week, has durability been factored into the equation? Starting injury/concussion prone players makes sense as you’re not burning 2 trades. For the record I’m not saying English is a bad trade but there must have been reasons for not bringing into the original team so what’s changed now?

Holding for now, mainly because I've already boosted out three players.

BE of 109 or something so he's not tanking in price this week. Could be my first upgrade to Laird with rookie cash in a few weeks :p
St Kilda is a good match up for him, but could be negated by the loss of BZT. Really needs to ton up this week.
