Yep, if there's one thing I've learned from Selby's podcasts this year is that you will struggle to go wrong when relying on the fantasy "names". I was all set to bring in Crouch last week but his Thursday game stopped me so I shouldn't really be worried about him now that he only scored 86 (as you say in a belting) and dropped in cash a touch more.I'm thinking I might just play a straight bat now (it was a fun rage trade sitch with Buddy in) but probably good he's injured so I can go back to those on my favourites list - of which Crouch is one of them and Fin Macrae was the other. Beauty is he never gets tagged and can't kick for sh*t, so teams don't bother with him, haha.
Short 12K from my preferred Crisp trade in, and even further short of Treloar (f*cking thrift shop Dusty) - so reckon Crouch has just about bottomed out - was already underpriced but under 700K is good value -, and should be good for the rest of the season (still scored 86 in a side that got smacked and he did very little)
If I come to the end of the season and i've got the Lloyd's, Crouch's, Neale's, Sidey's of the world in my side, i'll be ****ing happy despite the season avergae next to their name.
The other option is someone like Brayshaw, but is there really that much upside in a bloke like Bray compared to Crouch when you ahave the consistency of crocuh who has basically averaged a tonne every full season he has played.
