Pick 1...
I like your second one tbh. Get rid of the 2 set to lose cash.
get 2 in that look like making good money, 1 set to make big scores and creating a surplus for a double backline upgrade will be nice.

Cheers guys.
Yeah think the second option is the best, especially to pick up the 2 bargain defenders next week and finally not have to worry about the backline for a while.
Gulden to RCD
Tex to Hall

Though I was completely sold on Hall yesterday, I think I have to go with Kelly instead. I might be missing a huge opportunity for cash generation (I missed Tex and Ziebell for the same reasons), but there's too many questions around his role and durability for me to risk it - and besides, Kelly is a genuine underpriced gun.
It'll most likely be:
Flynn > Collier-Dawkins (via DPP)
Gulden > Kelly

Anyone keen on Harmes this week? 486k. Should a lot straight into the midfield with Viney out

I think Jelly is easily one of the best fantasy players when he is up and going, but what you're describing with Hall is exactly the same as Jelly - Injury prone player who's role is uncertain at this stage.
Haynes play wing over Jelly from round 1 - 5 goes down with a hamstring.
Brent Daniels plays mid time over Jelly 1 - 6 - gets injured early round 7.
Coach comes out and says they like him playing FWD, has injuries caused him to play this role? and is it temporary.

The thing is, J. Kelly is already the overall #7 highest scoring forward this year, even with the weird role and funny scores. There is only upside.
Agreed that he can be injury prone and that is a factor when considering bringing him in, but he's so under-priced that it outweighs the risk to some degree.

Need to consider the number of players in each bye you have as well as number of premiums.
Optimal strategy IMO is to have approximately 8/10/12 strategy ie 8 players with round 12 bye etc..
However with non playing players it’ll be more like 7/9/11 this year.
Next you want to try get an evenish split of premiums so that you have big scorers and captain options each week.
So perhaps if you have 18 keepers by then you could have 5/6/7 across the rounds.
Round 12 you trade out rookies on their bye and trade in value picks, or do a triple downgrade.
Round 13 and 14 you trade out rookies on their bye and trade in premiums who have had their bye.
Aim is to have a full 22 of premiums/keepers by the time you make your two trades for r15.

Absolutely. He’s been the games top scorer before. He is clearly the best value. Anyone arguing otherwise is wishful!

Got the perfect trades that I am 100% happy with, all I need is old mate Leon Cameron to not be a dick and play Flynn...
Oh well back to the drawing board

Not sure if I am happy or sad about that.

Pick 1...
For those more experienced than I...
im getting rid of Tex and Gulden.
I can afford Hall and Jelly.
Tactically should I grab the 2 guys capable of 100s or should I go 1 down to say Frederick/RCD for cash gen while there are fieldable rookies available.
Edit: It would give me nearly $500k leftover for next week allowing me to do Fanta/Rowe to RCD or Byrnes plus Gawn and having cash leftover. Otherwise to get Gawn I'll need to dump a better player than Rowe.

Love him but prior to round 7 he was going at 85.5 ave, priced 670k in his fwd role. He's underpriced for his mid / wing role and I'm not entirely sold he is back in the middle when there's been injuries the last few weeks. If he goes back fwd I think it's a bad pick.

Set and forget is much less stressful but I don't necessarily think it was the best move so far this year. Neither have gained value, so having just one for a C option is good then chase value elsewhere.Treacy on field will be tempting if Bryan and Flynn are both dead this week.
Someone remind me next year to just do Gawndy and not give myself a brain injury hoping 2 guys I’ve never heard of play.
I started with Gawn and brought in Grundy last week. Means I've had cash to get guys like Tex, Stephenson and Cummings I wouldn't otherwise.
However with Flynn's non-selection, now is the time to upgrade.
That said, McEllroy would have been a nice R2 if you started with him.

Go Hall and Jelly, you'll almost gain as much cash that way with their price rises this week.
Note, I'll be getting Hall, so it's buyer beware.

Could you burn a rookie early on Idun to get Hall, or better to trade a mid pricer like Fantasia?

Pick 1...
I started with Witts as R2 and Grundy R1. Just not enjoying the stress of the ruck merry go round. Really just need 1 more week of a dud R2 and I'll get Gawn next week. I have the complete set of spud R3's in Flynn, Treacy, Bryan so surely someone plays this week lol.
Cheers. I think you should be more worried about me getting Hall though.
Man there is a lack of rd14 premiums or even players I want anywhere near my team!
Might have to spend up to get Trac or Oliver next week simply for bye structure!!

It is hideous in that round for premiums
If Luke Ryan is out again, tempted to bite the bullet on something like:
Ryan>Harmes (assuming he's back)
Gulden>Hall/Kelly
Pretty much leaves me in the same bye position as im in.
RCD/Byrnes will still be cheap enough next week if i want them. Gotta start making points at some junction rather than patching rookie holes.
