Quote from: Bully on April 28, 2025, 08:57:52 PMWith Cerra suspended I'm trading to Neale, looking at my bench I simply can't weather a week, not this week in any case. Dale stays for now, will assess next week.

good move Cerra been a great pick but he's not got a lot of upside left. Neale a solid option, wish I paid this much for him.

I'm in the same kind of boat. Holding him puts a risky rook on my field so I'm trading Cerra to Trac and that keeps a bad rook off the field.

Cerra had his suspension thrown out. Still don't mind the trade

Cerra to Neale does look good, this could be the last week of bargain basement Neale, I'll have a think about it once the teams are up.

Bully



To get Neale I need to go early on Boxshall, risky but I think his scoring potential is very good for the inside role he plays. Moraes & Oliver out, Carroll hanging on by a thread but at least I have cover this week. Only 22 starters so cannot afford any hiccups, this week has the potential to backfire if I cop any subs but at least St Kilda & Carlton play early.

Teams were an absolute cluster F tonight. The app/website was still spitting out teams 10 minutes before the bounce.

It was a drip feed with one team at a time, 5 minutes apart, terribly frustrating. At least Carroll made the cut, but I still fear the sub with Docherty & Cowan back in the side. Happy to have Xerri's VC score locked however, I really hope Gawn doesn't go nuts, against West Coast anything is possible although Williams is an emergency and I suspect a bit of double teaming could be on the menu.

Yep teams were a shambles. At least you got the VC right I chopped and changed and right up to bounce had it on Xerri and then Merrett and then at last minute changed to Bont, Why do not know but sums up some of my decisions.

At least you have Merrett! That's huge for this week, just checked his BE and he's still gettable next week, might have to make him a priority.

Next week probably go up a bit and break even 120 ish... was 150.

Then Jordan though

Yes but playing him forward seems a very shrewd tactic to shake the tag, even last night he spent a fair bit of time in the 50m arc. I think he's a good bet to be a top 8 midfielder. His price will still be sub 600k which represents great value at this stage in the season.

Mat0369

Merrett is so damn consistent every year. He was huge that last 10 minutes last night

Colliwobblers

Yes I had him / Sinclair penciled in for next week, was NOT wanting a score like that the week before I get him in though. Was set for a decent drop with a 100, scrap that. See if Sinclair does the same tonight I think he is BE 167.

Merrett gets a few stinkers for the year from hard tags and he gets a few of those huge scores but he is always there abouts at the end of the season in the top bracket. Big saving still over Bont Brayshaw Butters.

Serong the other one that's value 128 BE.

Bully

Late in, Travaglia in for Phillipou, I reckon there will be a few using him as a loop, I did last week.

Bully

Busslinger is the sub for those who have him pencilled in as a downgrade option, I'd be switching that to Hustwaite as a back-up plan.

Yeah I already had Hustwaite last week so will grab Carroll instead of Busslinger and hope he isn't the sub also.
