Thanks Herbie, that's quite insightful.

I ended up heavy in the mids because of the Danger > Titch move, that'll be rectified by bringing in a Fwd for Gaff as I'm heavy with rookies on field there.

After 2 trades this week I'll have the following rookies:

Def------J Clark (not tech. a rookie) Highmore, Kosi & Sharp
Mid------Gulden, JordOn, Powell, Berry & McNeil
Ruc------Flynn, Meek, Hunter
Fwd------Campbell, Rowe, Brockman, Fullarton, Scott

By the looks of things Gulden, Campbell, Flynn and Jordan could each make 300-350k (probs a bit high)
Powell, Berry & Meek 250k
Highmore & Kosi 200k
Brockman & Clark 150k
It would be a bonus if the others hung around long enough to make any $

Obviously my price assumptions are speculative and might not meet my lofty expectations. With a bit of luck there's 4 one up/one down trades there already and I'm hoping that other rookies will present themselves throughout the year, after last years hit to the junior ranks I would expect that quite a few will take a while to get up to speed, Phillips being a prime example.

Edit......The rucks for me rely on CCJ and Treacy (was hoping Fullarton too) getting games long enough for some cash gen. allowing only 2 trades to upgrade (with a wad of cash ITB)
Warner appears the only one missing.

I haven't looked at price projections yet , so hopefully your projections are spot on as I own most of them.

I missed Brockman as well , looked like he had a complete score reversal from Round 1 so will be interesting to see how he performs in future games.

One year I will just start all the Rookies named Round 1 for a bit of fun 😀

Geez, thanks for the Warner heads up. I have him in the other format and just assumed I had him in SCo_O Now to work out a way to get Gaff out and Jordan + Warner in.

Can you afford to wait a week on Impey? If he scores 90 this week, he will rise $69K to $282K.

He’d still be in the cash cow price range (just!) and you get the benefit of seeing if he can back it up.

Now or never for mine. Probably won't make enough on top of that or become a keeper. Not saying he is a must just if you wanted him for $$$.

Brockman against Geelong feels like a 30-40 to me, pretty good at keeping a small forward quiet, think 70 is about his ceiling he was very good in patches on the weekend and only got to 77.

I think you have to call it now at $200k, now or never.

I surprised people looking at Tex at $300k aren’t instead looking at Impey, unless they already have him.

Tex becomes unreachable if he has another great week. You miss the boat completely.

Whereas Impey could have a good week (ie. 90+) and you could still possibly correct to him from a Jordan Clark type if he has another bad week (ie. 65-75).
