[Professor]

1982, 7 league wins, but about 200 points a week behind the 8 ball. Ranked 3946 with plenty of scope to improve.

 

[Connoisseur]

Now we are getting started!

Score: 2205
Rd Rank: 25
Overall Rank: 1012 (from 2,864)

 

[THCLT]

My 'yoyo' start to the season has continued.

 

[Athomas]

Still 3rd but a Sicily 49 sours the week. Would've needed an 89 for him to be 2nd

Another tough week for trades with no rookies peaked that i own!

Are you looking at 150k or minimum 100k based on timing of other incoming rookies?

Happy to move rookies on as quickly as I can (Mackenzie next week for example) but just hard to trade them out with single digit BE's.

Someone like Greene (BE 12) is probably expendable this week if he's the only way to grab JVR etc

Thanks for sharing your thoughts, does JS come into question when targeting rookies such as JVR? Ben Brown not far away.

Don't think we will have much choice with rookie downgrades looking thin. I'd say EVR is ok until Gawn comes back, likely they just move Petty to the backline if Brown is fit. Ideally EVR downgrade would come next week though, it's probably 1 week too early.

 

[Snatch]

2078 (Sheezel) Up 636 to 1246

Heading in the right direction now and no injured premiums needing to be traded for the first time this season!

Probably just JVR in for one of the rookies, but as discussed above a week too early but still might bite the bullet

 

[dylan123]

Outside of Bailey Smith, my team is doing quite well. I didn't pick Smith with the intention of him getting fwd status and thought that might have been a nice perk a few weeks ago but after his last two scores, even as a forward he does t hold much appeal.

I'm set on forwards, I could go a Stewart or Duncan but both are big injury risks. Got next to no cash so I'm either going on a flier still rising or cashing in on a rookie to try go up.

 

[vsberlina]

Thoughts on Haynes? I need a DEF as D4-D6 are just too inconsistent.

Could be back, would like to see 1 more game, but then you miss on the major price rise. He'll obviously be a stepping stone as clearly not best 6. 65k rise then 46k rise.

 

[Nothing]

I've forgotten where to get breakevens for DT, can someone point me in the right direction?

TIA

I assume he was once good then? (I've never watched a game of footy for the last 2 decades).
Happy to use a transfer if he's a good chance at a ton any given week.
He's got the 126 in his cycle now so barring injury, should get me cash at the minimum.

Got $814,500 so don't want to leave a heap in the bank whilst I lose pts.
Want a differential so reluctant to sheep in Day.

 

[vsberlina]

Day suspended for 2 games for a careless sling tackle.
I guess he's not even an option if I wanted him.
This game is too easy. Things just naturally divert their way to one option... usually a trap.

 

[Athomas]

Top 10 all have Day (12th the highest team not to have him)

5 of the top 10 have Doc (10 of the top 15 actually)

Lots of carnage in defence this week, should still see some huge swings in ranks early... Especially if some donuts this week!

 

[Dazza]

2209 pts
Ranked 39
Up 173 spots

Have Day will most likely keeping him

I would say Haynes is more of a SuperCoach player than a Dream Team player.

 

[mfchamp]

Who would people rather have: Oliver and Worpel or Miller and Setterfield?
Basically have to trade Setterfield to get Oliver otherwise Worpel to anyone really
