Time to say goodbye to Naicos and CoCoonow. Both good servants. Turned up each week, made some cash, it is a fond farewell.
Touk comes back in, and, and..............................
Strnadica was very average on Friday night but surely he gets a spike score in that role. I'd like to look at Begg before picking Strnadica but my path includes moving English forward who gets locked in the first game. :mad:
Not sure about My Comb.
Clark and Carrol next week.

I've also used 9 trades, and I reckon I've got 2 *less* premiums than I had in Rd 1 (4 less if you count the 2 I was carrying on the pine on the weekend).

At Rd 1 Whitfield and Ryan were "premiums", now they're MPM picks, to go with all my other MPM picks.

The rest of my trades were desperate cash grabs to try and get in a position.to get premos, or moves to avoid cash losses.

I really need a better plan

Dogs board on BF suggest otherwise.
i thought the read from Bevo is likely back, always can trust him too ……..

I seriously do want English in. Has a tasty run and dont want to lock in strnadica hayes preuss. No flexibility in that group if it goes pear shape with poor scores. Will be a coin toss who does better between the two rookies from week to week. Strnadica in particular has a poor run coming.

Gawn also has a tough run coming. Does feel like when we trading him In at $750k after maximum pain, to trade him out two weeks later.

He was overpriced last week although bound to have a big score on the weekend so I could see the appeal. But that ship has definitely sailed now and I'm sure he'll be closer to $600k at some point with Jackson to come back. Just got to ride it out now.
Starting to come around to same train of thought. But I then find myself trading into a 550k Sicily who others started for 440k and that feels kinda yuck :ROFLMAO:

Gee that was a pivotal trade for me and many moving Gawn to English early, would love that time again. Really can't move English on now though. Tossing up whether to throw the farm at Gawn this round, maybe move towards Parker I just don't know. I want English back.

Looking at

NOD to Clark
Berry to Petracca

Might stick to Hayes as 2nd Ruck and have him as emergency in case he has another average

Let's do this. Been an average couple of weeks, but feel like I can make some ground back.

Taking Grundy over Gawn initially obviously stings, but if Preuss and Hayes are the best value rookie offerings to have on field, then technically I'm only really giving up points to the Gawn owners if Maxy is delivering captain scores I can't match. Which is entirely possible. But that's how I rationalise it.

Saw the weekly winner had Ridley and Whitfield so that makes me feel a little better about holding those dogs.

Thinking Bont might be a decent contrarian trade in at his price. Woud like Parker, but the Rd13 bye is just too tricky with the forwards I have.

Any cash in the bank?
