Thanks mate - at the moment he's out for me despite his great run ahead, he seemed to be attending CBAs on the weekend and then just rushing forward. His ton the week before relied on three goals which is definitely an outlier, think he needs to go and I'm lucky to be in a position where I can...
Will Day was a bit unlucky in that game from my view - a couple of times he was VERY close to a +12 but just couldn't hold the mark (one should have been paid), and was a bit unlucky with some tackles too. On another day could easily have been a 120. I'll most likely be jumping off this week but...
2320 - up to 3rd overall 🎉 but the new number 1 overall had a huge round so have fallen slightly back from the summit.
Weird round, most of my uniques killed it (Dunkley, Sinclair, Newman, Caldwell) but also a lot of the popular players I don't own hit big numbers (Xerri, Whitfield, Daicos)...
Yeah I can, you're absolutely right - I hadn't thought of that, great call.
Assuming that Clark does score that 77+, I'm still on the fence regarding whether to take Reville's 77 or Sexton. Can genuinely feel a 30 on the horizon, particularly with Flanders named at halfback and Joel Jeffrey...
Lads/ladettes, help requested please.
I can either keep Reville's 77 benched and play Sexton and Jordan Clark
OR (this is a wild one, stick with me):
loop Reville on for Sexton (using Hugo Garcia)
move Sexton to Defence
move Jordan Clark to Def emergency
loop between Jordan Clark and Sexton...
I'm seeing a lot of people trading out Sexton given the potential role change, but who does this leave as your F6?
I think that most would agree that Zork, Heeney, Flanders, Fisher, Caldwell are F1-5, but someone needs to be at F6 and you can't have a rookie on field there at this time of year...
No doubt I got VERY lucky over the past month (and honestly the whole year), but my bye plan of:
(a) Get a full team of premiums by Round 12
(b) Maximise premiums on field each round through sideways trades
Served me really well and I think it was very different to what others were doing. I...
Considering investing in a 23rd premium this week to galvanise the forward line, as that F6 position is so flimsy at the moment. Looking at:
Luke Ryan > Gryan Miers
Bruce Reville > Connor Rozee
Will leave me with a fwd line of Flanders, Heeney, Zorko, Fisher, Caldwell, Sexton, Miers + rooks...
R12: 2059 (20)
R13: 2156 (21)
R14: 1832 (20)
R15: 2033 (21)
Total Score: 8080
Rank in (R11): 51
Rank out (R15): 4
Upgrades completed: Went into Rnd 12 with a mostly completed team, so almost all trades were sideways. Big inclusions over last few weeks include Gulden, Zorko, Tom Green...
Finished with 2033 and up to 4th overall and only 48 points from the summit now 💪
Big shout-outs to Walsh, Gulden, Grundy, Caldwell, Tom Green, Zerrett, Butters, love your work
I'm officially number 1 overall! Definitely won't be at the end of the week with a few dud scores, but I'll take it for now.
🎉 Grundy on debut, Gulden, Bont, Zork
🤢 Steele, Day, Baker, rooks (Reville, Freijah, Dowling)
Last minute trade change because I'm an absolute sicko. I can smell a 40 from Marshall tonight, hearing that he'll be spending a big portion of the game forward and obviously Campbell will heavily impact his scoring.
Marshall > Grundy (Strachan and Briggs in next 2, bullish on some big scores)...
Feeling pretty nervy coming into this first game with the Marshall/Campbell news.
Steele, Sinclair, Zork VC, Marshall, Reville tonight, praying for a high scoring game 🙏
Hey mate, was ranked about 18000 after Round 1 and then proceeded to trade in Fyfe rather than Bonner, so hardly an ideal start to the year! Was up to 300th by the end of Round 4 though, so improved pretty quickly from there
The trade ins won't change at all - still Serong, Ryan and Simpkin, but will put some extra cash in the bank for next week. Looking at Nic Newman, Merrett + 1 (Rozee/Caldwell/???), so the additional funds should help to lock those in.
Think I'll be jumping off of Daicos rather than Steele this week.
Big risk of a late out this week. Commentary from the club implies that he is touch and go depending on training sessions late in the week. You would expect Collingwood to handily beat North even without Daicos. Surely if there...
Thanks mate, great points re Martin's easy run post bye and Green's potential injury/tough run coming up. Still think Green is almost too good value to ignore at his price regardless of opponent, but he does play three of the four hardest MID matchups over the next three weeks so I'm definitely...
Maybe I'm being naive after his last month of poor scores, but I still see him as a 100+ guy and think it is foolish to pass him up at this price. His low price also enables my other two trades, so just have to cross my fingers and hope he goes back to his normal piggish behaviour
Thanks for the detailed reply mate, really appreciate it! Think I will be sticking to the bye plan of maximising on-field premiums though, it's worked for me so far. Your plan would definitely be the safer option though, plenty to ponder over the next few days....
Currently looking at two options for this week:
Option 1:
Oliver > Green
Steele > Serong
N Martin > Xerri
High risk. Thinking of jumping off of Martin given increased FWD minutes despite his 120 this week. Sets me up to have 18 premiums playing in both Rnd 14 and 15, but part from Reville all...
2156 and up to 7th overall - very tight at the top this year, only 70-ish points from first.
Think I might be leading Lord of the Byes at the moment as well, will need to wait until lockout ends to confirm though!
I love this year, how good is footy, bounce that ****in' pill
EDIT: Confirmed...
Thanks mate!
I'm on the website on my mobile phone - I'm definitely on 2048, do you see 1952 on the actual rankings screen, or when you click on my team? I think if you click on my team then it doesn't show some of the trades that have been made so the score is different, but on the actual...
Currently on 2048, 18 played with Daicos and Gawn to come to (hopefully) replace 40 and 79. Looks like I should end up on around 2150 or so, which seems like a good score for the week.
Also temporarily up to 2nd overall 🎉 though I think I will drop a couple of spots tomorrow as some other teams...
