170,100K left for rookie changes
bump
Haha the feed is flooded!
Is that Luke McDonald from north? Like him he will average 75-80 and make close to 150k as good a stepping stone as any! was he injured or not able to break into the side?
Not a huge fan of smith pick hes first in line for the tag now!
like the strong mids!
Lobbe wont go better than 90 in my eyes 100k isnt enough to be a cash cow either.
mcdonald is actually the one from melbourne. oscar i think?
heard he may be close to a call up pending NAB
Not much wrong with this team. as above Smith and Lobbe I'd change. Good structure at least 9 players not including rookies same as mine
McDonald could be a great pickup If he plays lost early and avoids the vests.

avoid the vest? surely no subs rule anymore?
how expensive is Mcdonald?
155
Very nice team! Lobbe could be a great pickup if he gets more ruck duties. Lets just hope Smith doesn't have another stinker. Is that Z or J Merret you picked in the FWD line?

z merrett. i wouldn't mind seeing how lobbe goes in NAB. can afford nic nat
Nice team and worth sitting on till we know which rookies are playing. Structure is sound at 3/5/2?/3 keepers. Libba and Merrett could also be keepers.
Lobbe is a watch and see during the NAB.
Nice amount of cash for adjustment as well. Would not want to have over $100k in cash when Rd 1 starts.

Great team with a very good structure.
I have gone one extra keeper down back while you have an extra forward. I think the forward rookies will be easier to come by than the back rookies so that's why I've gone that way.
I pretty much like all your keeper picks except for Gibson as I think he will be called upon to play a key defender role at times due to the retirement of Lake.
Nice work.
thanks guys .
gibbo has posted some impressive scores from the 2 nabs.
his DE% is great. but with lake retiring could play more defensive role to stop goal scoreers.
hope hawks play full strength side for NAB 3
so i can make final decision
I like the team a lot mate, solid structure and pretty safe picks all round.
Honestly my main bit of advice would be to just watch your rookies because the rest is actually pretty damn good.

thanks ringo. its was cannon. was between him and seedsmans. bit just updated the post with new ideas
Bit risky Sam playing 4 rookies out of 6 each week but may pay off.
i can upgrade weitering and have about just over 400,000 to spend
im thinking weitering to seedsman. i reckon he can average 90ish
Go with gut on whoever you decide Sammy - Seedsman will be an interesting pod and maybe even a keeper but with defence this year who knows.

grimley DP is handy.
can't decide between bennedy and menadue both exceptional NAB's
menadue would give me more cash
Like the team although we differ in opinion on a few. T McKenzie while cheap and undervalued, could be a disaster. With the plethora of running out of half back options the GC have I don't think he is likely to return to '13 when he had his only good year filling this role. 18,18,19,16 games in the past 4, not enough upside for the risk. Not sold on Gresham either, don't think he's set the world on fire in the NAB.
Could go Cannon to Weitering, Gresham to Menadue, plus cash. Opens up the DPP, don't think it'll affect your points too much and give you some extra $$$
Good luck mate

i am aware joyce isn't named just held him for the moment
Good sitting team - Will McGovern continue to play given the players Crows will have coming back. Just a thought for you to consider.
I did away with F/D Dpp to move McDonald Tip back there to give extra coverage.
Something to be weary of with Oscar McDonald is that Dunn is likely to come back into that side very shortly. He was named emergency this week but I think that is just based on a lack of match fitness. He might have a couple runs in the VFL and then slot into that back line at McDonald's expense which won't even see you get a price rise from him.
so this is now what im sitting on after some advice

not worried about gawn as i am barlow and rocky.
think gawn will come good
Think ruck scores are suffering with less stoppages as a result of rule changes. So no need to panic about Gawn. Both Gawn and Goldy predicted to drop 30k with high B/e so not alone.

yeah thats what i was thinking ringo
You've nailed your rookies (omac aside!), so no wasting trades, to get some more $$ into your team value you could go Zaha, should go up $100K in 2 rounds and you can then either trade to a super prem or keep if firing. It may be undervaluing a trade but getting extra dollar value into your team early without burning a rookie can benefit you in the long run....

Omac comes out for hartley next week when he's on the bubble which should give me 40K to hold for later date

so maybe
O.mcdonald>ruggles

yeah with those trades im about 6K short off getting shaw
with crouch being out i have worked out a few trade options.
Option A: crouch>parish and murphy>houli
Option B: murphy> A.hall via dpp and crouch>parish. leaves me with 2 premium defenders and 3 premo fwds.
Option C: murphy>ruggles and crouch>gray/parker. leaves me with 6 mid premos. and 2 fwd and 2 defender premos
thoughts guys
So Basically it comes down to this who do you think will average the most from here
Hall or Gray or Parker Gray is the most expensive and is up and down but reasonably consistent. Hall has really jumped out and you have seen the comments in the thread and Parker seems to be the main Sydney Mid at the moment but will it continue when Sydney start to meet the upper teams.
So I would go Option B
thanks ringo. appreciate the input
I'd go with option A. Having only the two defender premiums seems very short. I understand they've started well, but rookies are unpredictable by nature. Houli looking like he's relishing the new game style as well. Not sure whether you've already missed the boat on Parish though. He's at 260k already, meaning he takes another 5-6 weeks to make 100k IF he continues with the 83s.

Of course but you determine which rookie will come on field...is he stronger than the rookie you are fielding in another position?
not all rookies are the same, it's a judgment call but non the less it is to be factored in.
If you are running multiply loopholes it can give u a really good shot at getting a better rookies score.

an running a few loopholes this week.
hoping a mid rookie pops up soon. as im worried about mills. he seems to have just dropped a bit
Jayden Short is on the bubble but just concerned about his js. Will make $130k going Mills to short if you need cash for upgrades next week.
You are going to have to trade both Bob and Crouch out this week.
Option A is the sensible option. Parish has cash to make and Houli going very well.
Option B is a riskier option as it leaves your defense a little exposed but is the better point scoring option.

yes. if petracca comes in will be nice to have him
Not sure that I like the Franklin trade mate. Have a quick browse over his stats for the past 4-5 seasons and you'll see what I mean. He always starts well and fades in the 2nd half, and he generally misses games in the 2nd half also. Swans had a relatively easy start to the season as well, meaning he's unlikely to sustain his scores for the season.

i really want shaw in.
don't think i can trust rocky. burnt me to much ha.
hall dropping off i think
Like the trades, the time to trade Tippa is now for mine, and Dea can wait. He'll most likely have a couple of 75-85 back to back games and can be traded later after that...
Hall still had a big game last week, his DE was down. Can jump on in a couple of weeks if he pumps out a couple of 100+ games to give you reassurance. If Rocky backs up again this week he may be too cheap to ignore too....
Mills may be ripe next week, Adams too, and Brown the following week to take advantage of his 88 last week.
Dea seems more pressing to trade out with a BE of 90+ though I see your point re: Shaw.
I'm contemplating Shaw/Boyd this week, Boyd is so tempting with JJ and Bob out, though I worry he might miss a game or two at some stage...
thanks for the advice guys.
any of you guys have laird and will be holding?

flower, just saw that. Have him and Rance. Will trade to avoid a donut most likely, Hartley and Wagner should get the job done otherwise, especially loopholing them with Laird.
yeah put laird on bench. using dea as cover until i upgrade him soon
If there wasn't other areas to work on id trade, it just seems like a negative move to trade.
If you could spare 5 to look at my team and give me your two cents worth that be grand. Never been so high so early on...
Yeah i'm holding Laird, scary though because Adelaide tend to be overly optimistic in their assessments (see Crouch etc) and they're saying 2-3 weeks...

You say that now, but if we'd already waited 2-3 weeks, what's another 1 or 2?
Keeping him makes sense while we have decent rookies covering. DBJ, Byrne, Brown, Tippa, Adams have all been serviceable thus far. Upgrading around him means we'll have an extra prem at the end of those 3 weeks.
IE:
Wk 1 = Sideways + Downgrade this week = same number of prems as current
Wk 2 = 1-up, 1-down = one more prem than current
IF YOU HELD:
Wk 1 = 1-up, 1-down = one more prem than current
Wk 2 = 1-up, 1-down =
two more than current.
You won't be double upgrading in week 2 of scenario 1 because there will be rookies on the bubble who need to come in (Keays/Petracca etc)

leaves me with 10K.
I would move Bennedy on before Kerridge.
I reckon he is a touch more consistent.
Nice team and great overall position
Have a look at my team if you get time mate.
Cheers
Agree with Asparagus here would move Bennedy before Kerridge.
Other alternative is Dea forward Dea to Petracca and Mills to Ward. Think Dea has hit ceiling with B/e close to his average

Dea to Keays via brown and Menadue. Does that work for you.

Fair enough then - According to my basic calcs you need another $80k to get Ward.

will play him to cover boyd and go
brown>brand
kerridge>hanners.
if mcdonald not named will go
kerridge>hopper
O.mcdonald>simpson/doc
If McDonald not named does Menadue to Crocker/McPherson give you enough to go McDonald to Simmo/Doc. Just think that Kerridge with a B/E of 70 may be worth holding as he may score than Hopper. You can do this trade next week anyway if you wish.
Do not mind the first trade if McDonald named though.

yeah sounds good ringo. i think it will put me very close to getting simmo or doc
any one know what i should do.
124K in bank
have
boyd
laird
ablett
adams
wells
Boyd is only a week so hold - Wells achilles is a worry so would look at upgrading him and Adams is cause for concern as his average is close to his B/E. So would be looking at one to a rookie and upgrading one to strengthen weakest lines.
Swap Bennedy with Wells and then trade Wells to...
Scully
Sloane
Montagna
Priddis

shocking week but still happy with the score. danger as C ruined my chances of a big score.
trades im thinking is
DBJ>williams or mathieson
Bennedy>Nroo/zorko
Zorko every day of the week over NRoo mate, don't get sucked in. Yes he's scored well lately, I feel he's a 90-95 player though at best and you'll be paying a premium.

Totally agree
Just a personal opinion but I would stay clear of Williams as I think he will be out within the next 2 weeks due to players dogs have coming back.
Biased as well but think Zorko over Roo as well. Lions draw gets easier after Hawks this week and can not see Zorks dropping off,

trades this week will be
kerridge>matheo
brown>doc
simmo cheaper option but doch just pumping out big scores. get him now before he jumps over 600K
after these 2 trades only have 13. so things getting tight. just gotta hope for no injuries
so have brought in docherty.
then next week im considering gray or dahl
Given you (like me) have 5 upgrades to make, you might like to consider a cheaper premium option than Docherty. McVeigh for example could produce the same output for the remainder of the year for considerably less, with the money saved at around the 150k mark.
Gray would be my choice this week, unless injuries strike.

i have considered mcveigh. even rance. i just don't wanna miss out on doc's huge scores. but rance and mcveigh could score the same or more and are cheaper .
i would get gray. but my rookie mids have a bit more cash to make
Im with MC on this one. Docherty is too expensive. He's playing exceptionally well but sell high and buy low is the way to go. Im not sold on Mcveigh but Rance is a good option.
Id be looking to get Robbie Gray. I know you arent ready to trade out a mid rookie but go a bit early and get Robbie before he skyrockets.

Neale looks a super premo these days, never has a bad day. If you can afford him then go for it.

Not sure I could justify his price regardless, not with Selwood, Gray, Priddis, Rocky etc all 100k cheaper

if keays isn't named i will bring in trengrove or jensen
which would give me over 500K for upgrades over the byes
Trengove is on the bubble this week Sam and predicted to rise $50k and as keays has hit the wall and fallen in price would go Keays to Trengove regardless of whether being named or not. Trengove imo better JS.

Like this better than bringing in Montagna. Wait till after his bye if you wanna grab him.
I like 2nd & 3rd trades, but Smith to Stewart doesn't seem to achieve anything other than more cash, which you could get next week anyway. Suggest just two trades and hold
