Didn’t see one of these so thought I’ll start one.
Which way would you go?
A) Jelly, D. Stephens, Preuss & English (DPP into ruck)
B) Cripps, Miller, Preuss & Dixon
C) Rowell, Jelly, Witts, Dixon
Maybe (C), though Preuss seems key to your team? Only guessing.
Rowell/Dunkley v. Cripps/English?

Dunkley staying put. It’s more like English v Cripps/Rowell
Cripps/Berry vs Tmitch/Ward?
I think that Cripps may be a bargain if he stays fit, but am worried about Berry.
Does Mitchell effect Ward too much?
Leaning towards Cripps/Berry.

Cripps has the ability to match TMitch & I think Ward may suffer from inconsistency due to being a first year player. Berry looks to be outstanding value given his high ceiling.
I agree on Cripps being outstanding value. Leaves me with my last selection:
Bowey (D5) & Cripps (M4) with Ward at M9
V
Stewart (D1) & M9 Rookie (Ward into M8)
Hinge versus Gibcus?

I'm more worried about Balta faltering as a forward, not sure Gibcus is that versatile but on the other hand, Gibcus looks every bit as accomplished as Sam Taylor.

Hinge versus Gibcus?
I have both but I would take Hinge over Gibcus if picking one.
Who to Dylan Stephens for bench spot.
Soligo, MacDonald. Hough
Hough
Berry vs Caldwell? This one is doing my head in. Berry 8s safer for an 80, but Caldwell has more potential.

I went Caldwell, agree that the potential is there ... can always correct trade to berry later if you have the cash
I prefer Berry. Polec is the other one to throw into the mix but I have Berry ahead of both
1. Rich vs Hall vs Sicily and cash
2. Pick 2 of Hayes, Maritn and Dixon
3. Horne-Francis vs Polec
Ok so I’m doing my first 3 trades before the price rise. Which scenario do I go with?
A)
Out: Whitfield, Marshall & Berry
In: Hall, Jackson & Cripps
B)
Out: Whitfield, Ward & Owen
In: Bowey, Cripps & D. Stephens
A has a couple more keepers but means I keep a couple non playing mid rookies.
B more risky but greater cash Gen.

Is the 150 for Bowey an outlier? If so, he might make quick cash but then stagnate around 350k, I'm not entirely sold although I get the fact he's banked some cash.

Jackson & Bowey are the same for me. Cash Gen risk v reward.
It’s more missing out on Stephens money and then keeping two non playing rookies on bench.

Why don't you grab Stephens, Hall & Cripps?
Just on Bowey, he's played 6 games & only once hit the ton, I'd say he makes 120 in 3 weeks and then stays in that 350-400 range.
Not a must but a neat way to make some dough if you want to upgrade De Koning.
On the flipside, Whitfield is due to lose 50k, Hall to gain 40k, that's a 90k turnaround which almost cancels out Bowey's rise.
This is the clincher for me, I'd rather get the money on the field as the cash gen is negligible.
Bowey vs Xerri?
Bowey is less likely to maintain the 100 average, rucks usually have a floor of 80 & that average would seem beyond Bowey IMO.

I'd be going A, more trust in that one to perform better
Also don't forget that Skinner will be on the bubble next week, he will be my De Koning replacement if he makes it to game 3.
Ok not sure which way to go ... I am definitely doing Gawn to English then 2 of the following.
A) One of Whitfield or RIdley to Hall.
and
B) Hough to Stephens or Ginnivan (via Rachele)
Can only get one of stephens/ginnivan. Not sure who is going to have more upside?
Don't have Martin (ess) yet but will get him following week since he has one more week til price rise.

Very solid trades, I probably take Stephens as I think he will be a tad more consistent.

Priority should be getting Berry up tp to Cripps, Owen up to Stephens, pull whatever lever is necessary to get this over the line.
Guys I'm very happy with my team, but I'm thinking of a few corrections this week with a booster.
I've hit most of the rookies and got Hewett, cripps, Rowell, Berry, xerri, bodie.
I've missed dyl Stephens and I'm not loving McGovern, ridley and Whitfield.
So, im looking at ridley, hough and McGovern out for bowey, Stephens and heeney
I'd love to do Whitfield out instead of Ridley but fall $12k short on the trade.
What do you think of the proposal? Should note I haven't used a trade yet
Also side note, wonder whether I go de goey over heeney, am I just chasing points with heeney?
Personally think DeGoey is a better pick than Heeney.
Would trade Whitfield before Ridley as well but understand the frustration with both.
As far as the trades go I’m not too sure I would go ahead with it. You have the main guys and are burning 3 trades to not get much.
McGovern may still earn a bit if he gets the interceptions. They have Hawks this week so fair chance of a good score.
In your case I’d probably look at a single trade. Probably Whitfield to Bowey for a cash grab and trade Bowey in a few weeks to a premium defender
Thanks for the response you've given me pause to rethink Gov, and agree Whitfield is a much higher priority out than rids.
How much of a must have is Stephens? Maybe Whitfield to boeey and hough to Stephens?
Would do that trade Hough will noit make as much money as Stevens. Stevens has a B/E of -56 so will rise considerably after this week. Hough not sure whether over injury as yet so you get rid of a possible non scoring rookie to a cash cow. Do not mind Whitfield to Heeney but need to see all lines to make sure not weakening.

I made the trade, although I already had English, I didn't have Butters. Low risk punt as you can always swig English back to the forwards.
Which 2 out of Hamilton vs Carroll vs Rioli
De Goey vs Greene?
Quote from: Mat0369 on June 10, 2022, 02:24:21 PM
De Goey vs Greene?
De Goey for my money but you also need to consider the extra match, that may tilt things in Greene's favour.
And for the record, I picked Greene last year and he was typically burnman material, his indiscretions DO have an impact on the way CD scores him, particularly with scaling at the end of the match.
Take Oliver as VC or risk it on Neale?
That is the question facing mist, Olivers 124 is at the awkward price. I am backing Neale purely because if he only scores say 110 which he should as a minimum only lose 14 points wheres if the other way points gained,

His average at home is decent, I think worth rolling the dice.
