That's my opinion. Also with a BE of 9, others might pay even more overs next week (but surely this is the week or just let him go into the sunset)
He's awesome and in some good form, but I still think he's in that Tom Green and LDU bracket where you'll get the big scores but I'm not sure the consistency will be there this season. I think if you're going to go him him you already should've or it has to be this week because when Miller is back I expect his output to drop. I took him the week after Miller got injured in RDT and should've also in SC but that game he played Saturday night was something special but it's gone now.

$3k short of getting Anderson with 2 trades... Don't want to use my last boost on him.

Probably just keep it simple. Wilmot > Weddle (if named), Ashcroft > Brayshaw/Steele

Don't really want to lose Ashcroft yet as I feel he has another 90+ in him, but gotta grab one of the potential value premium mids while they're cheap.

Trade him when Touk is back (tongue in-cheek but it's a possibility if it's pretty late in the season and Anderson is still at a high price etc)

That's a good idea, I'm low in trades and trying to think conservative mode after selling the farm to try and sort out injuries, suspensions, poor selections etc. in an attempt to get back into the game so definatley worth it for those with trades.

agree with this but Tom Green has been really consistent this season, think he's likely to maintain a 110+ average.

Touk is out for a while as far as I know.

He was a really good matchup for Daicos; usually tags defenders. Would expect him to either not have a role or go to someone like Young. 0 CBA's today so Brayshaw/Serong should be pretty safe.
Finding ways to talk myself out of Brayshaw probably speaks volumes. Last chance to get Gulden under 500 so think that’s the safe play.

Less safe play would be Mills. WCE & NM coming up. Any idea on his CBA’s over the last couple weeks?

Pencil in

Ashcroft - > Docherty via Day
Davey - > Gulden

$ 58,100.00 in the Bank , 21 trades left.

3 onfield rookies remaining in Chandler , Hollands & Sheezel.

Baker & Wilmot downgrade cash probably gets me a $ 600k mid premium for Hollands.

Will need Cincotta & Mitchell to make a fair bit more (need another 2 downgrade options to appear) to upgrade Chandler via Gulden.

Sheezel (or Day) then to a midfield premium somehow.

Wait and see I guess

The bye is talking me out of Brayshaw. Rd 12 really hurts.

Anyone thought about Blicavs? Left field I know but playing well and is pretty durable normally. 32 years of age is what is talking me out of it. Has the best bye like Anderson and is always first picked in the team

You could have Blics as your M8 and then if and no doubt when one of your main rucks go down you could trade them out for a midfielder.

Noah Anderson will be over $600k now. Not sure he's worth the $$$ unless Miller was guaranteed to stay out of the side long term. Only want to spend that kinda coin on a proven MID like Clarry (currently a non-owner)

Oh, and firetruck you, James Sicily. The first time I've ever traded you into one of my sides and you serve up that rubbish.
So it's your fault! Regarding Sicily's poor output

Hang on, what's wrong with Marshall?

Also, thoughts on Drury? If we think he's a viable "go early" it opens up Setterfield/O. Baker/Chandler to Brayshaw/B. Smith/Drury for me.

Will probably hold Ridley and cover by not trading out McKenna. Think h'll score better with Reid to come into the side.

Reid apparently hurt his hammy in the VFL, not sure we'll see him for a while.
