After I traded Gawn to Grundy last night, I've decided I'm not shifting anything anymore except rookies pending final teams.

Holding on to 130k for corrections over next two weeks.

Now watch, as I trade Stewart to Lloyd, or Steele to Neale, or Danger to Zorko...

Is Ozario a lock.?
If you mean Fantasia, you can't lock something made of blu-tak.

Seriously, though, I have considered him. If picked you just have to hope he makes some money before he breaks down, which will require a few big games, amongst some low scores. Definitely not a lock, but could be worth the risk. Depends on your structure, too.

Almost a trap though as those who want Dusty's VC are going to have to sacrifice one of the few cows we have to get it. Might be a 20 point gain on other options at the end of the day.
Interesting conundrum. Personally I like having two shots at the C score each week. I get there will be other players dropped as the season unfolds but having that flex, particularly a donut with DPP outweighs the potential cash generation of one extra rookie

Gawn 49.7% ownership overall and 34.9% with the C.

A lot riding on the big bearded man, hoping there's a feast awaiting at the G.
I'll be hoping he goes sub 130 so I can feel early vindication for the all rookie ruck line.
Gawn should go 150+.

I vice captained Dusty as a hail mary thinking I would captain Gawn.
To keep Dusty's C score I have put Treacy on the ground as captain which I will loop with Anthony Scott's 56.
A bird in the hand for me.

I was amazed at Dusty’s ownership (circa 50%). A few would have VCed.
I don't think I am - reports that he's has his strongest pre-season in a long time and has been working hard on his running is as enticing as it gets for a bloke who cruises a lot of the time and still averages 100 as an SC forward.

The new rules are made for Dusty as well if he's now covering the ground better, as we know he's lethal by foot anywhere on the ground.
