McStay or Hipwood looks to be his likely matchup, game will be during the day so no threat of drew to make marking difficult.

When BRI have been playing well this season, they tend to look for short leading targets when going forward rather than bombing the ball. This will really depend on how close the game is after HT. If BRIS takes control early and are comfortable then we'll likely see his score in that lower bracket. I'm predicting an easy win for BRI so going to say something between 55-60 for Collins.
Interesting thoughts. Trading Collins this round doesn’t seem like the worst move if he’s only going to score a 60 odd.

I might just bench Collins.... Hore seems hard to not put on field after his last two games.

Pick 3 to field:

Duursma, Collins, Scrimshaw, Hore, Clark.

I’ve ruled out Clark unless someone convinces me otherwise.

Who should I bench of the other 4?

I was thinking of Hore, Collins, Scrimshaw and benching Duursma this week but not sure.

I would go Hore, Scrimshaw and flip a coin between Collins/Duursma.

I've got Scrimshaw/Duursma D6/7 and if both play I'll E Duursma as he'll act as cover if any premiums miss, and if they do and you have an appropriate D8 you can loophole with Duursma.

I like that idea with Duursma for Collins, hope Clark is dropped then get a free look at Duursma into Collins

Had E on Baker after I traded Sam Collins to him. Setters on field.... Tick
Ok, now Bailey Scott gets his emergency loophole chance in the mids. His last chance basically.

In defence all of Duursma, Scrimshaw and Clark will be on field and hope to make an upgrade next week to reduce rookies on field there.

i would take clark out of the convo, put scrimshaw top of the list for good chance at 70, then toss a coin between collins/ridley. collins has good chance at decent score but could also throw up a stinker

Scott on field as C to take Grundy's score, also means I'm taking Stack's 72.

Who does Scott replace? Cousins or Constable?

72 is borderline roll the dice on other rookie in the mids line.
If a forward or defence rookie you almost certainly take. Midfield not 100% sold on as you got to expect mids to score better even as rookies than other lines. Constable I'd back in to get more. Cousins I watched less of but Eagling post suggests you might leave Stack on bench. Borderline decision I guess.
