Did think of that. Not a huge fan of the weak backline that everyone seems to be running with right now.
If I were to go down from Day, I am more inclined to go for Braeden Campbell before Jones.
Right now I am thinking the simpler option might just be McLean down to Henry/Phillippou and either bank the cash or upgrade Worpel.

136k in the bank.
Contemplating Green up to Cogs.
I could also drop Phillipou down to a basemen priced rookie (Mcvee, Laurie, Uwland, Bergman) and that gets Green to Jelly (70k in bank)
I am worried about possibly fielding Cowan/Chesser/Wilmot at D6 each week. I could upgrade Pou to Mckenna or Campbell. Would mean missing Ginbey/Constable score this week though with Cowan already locked in.
Thoughts?

Not sold on Flanders but can't think of anything else i would do with the money
Chesser is UTL
$0k left
Both injury prone and not exactly high scorers for a mid-pricer.
Tom Powell perhaps

This is pretty close to my final team I think. Bit worried about my bench and lots of mid price risk. But all calculated mid price risk. The one spot up in air is Ziebell. He is the biggest risk. I could see him avging 90-100 or something like 65 lol. No in between
If he goes it's for Phillipou and I get Sheed up to LDU

Mordecai I have deviated from the path my comrade. Down to 21/30
Mitchell in for tonight's dumpster cookup.
As a result of the spare cash, I've just looked at Jack Bytel for the first time. His most recent numbers don't look like much, but it involves 5 subs. His 2022 VFL stats look juicy. Could be a bit of cream there for a rookie pick if you can afford it. Named in the 4kin CENTRE!

Definitely wasn't my intention to be combative - was genuinely trying to help you out because you offer a lot of great advice to others on here. I was at work when I posted so probably being brief to keep the boss off my back. Rereading it again this morning the second one was pretty blunt so fair call.Or...it's been signalled that Laird might cop some attention, and when he was tagged last year he was kept to 116. Still respectable, but not a mammoth score - and only 6 at more than Doch got last night.
Even if he goes 130, I'm still only making 20 points. You get a 110, you take it - regardless of the situation. Any captain choice could fall over, break their leg, be tagged to a 50...it happens all the time. I'm picking him for the season, not just for this game - and reached that conclusion prior to the practice match.
Re: your other post to JADED that follows on with the discussion, I've taken this game really seriously in the past, and as a result, have not enjoyed it at all. Not all of us are here to win the car, and some are here to just enjoy the ride and have fun - which I've vowed to do this year after a really shitty couple of years in life in general. If that means just 'having a respectable finish', then I'm fine with that, as long as I enjoy the ride and have fun with our community here throughout the year

Btw, might want to re-read both of those posts back, as it comes across a bit combative. Not sure if that was your intention, but that's how it looked.
I agree the Doc 110 is totally legit to keep as a VC score, I was more alluding to paying up for Laird then not making him as captain. He avgs 120, but if you are going to take a 110 as a VC score most weeks then you're not maximising his value. You'd be better off grabbing a Bont type then deploying the $150k elsewhere given Doc is going to pump out 110s almost every week.

This is what I am rolling with
Big gamble on Campbell, but few options around there to patch up (L.Jones, Hunt, Day) after R1 if need be.
Think Worpel over Bruhn for time-being.

Takes just one decent-goodish game from Laird at that price, and he's down 100k. A cork one match, and a quiet game while running around sore, and he's down 200k.
Not much room when you're flying that close to the sun.

Pick 1...
Surely Constable on field over Jones or Sheezel?

If North are managing Goldy in round 1, then it's much of a muchness for Xerri. If there's a time to be playing 2 rucks, it's against Darcy and Jackson in round 1.
It's just leftover money I have from downgrading Cogs to Powell then upping Callaghan to JHF and a rook to Stocker. Figured bench has no mid cover, and it gives me a ton of flexibility, should give it a go and see if I like it come tomorrow. If Bruhn goes well tonight, will make me feel more comfortable about moves like this
Could it be wise if you have the cash to get Bytel and bench him this week and then use him as the Hollands on field replacement next week. As his scoring will be much better.
All good, and thanks for clarifying
Yeah fair points all 'round. Laird is more of what you would call 'insurance', given I'm going to be out of the country and timezones are gonna be effed, so I can just plonk the C on him and it doesn't really matter if I forget to loophole anyone. Not something that applies for everyone, but for me personally, that stability, is worth the extra 180K on Bont, who I would loop Dunks and Doch most weeks, if I went with him.
VC loops can get tricky when you're busy (especially on the app while travelling), but perma C when you're sure they'll nail it most weeks - that's somehing you don't even have to think about.
Same thinking I have with Constable on my mid bench right now
