Who gets the better candidate for the E loop tonight? Oskar Baker or Matt Johnson?
This is my dilemma too - I need to field one and loop the other with Phillipou.

Tempted to roll the dice with Johnson on field and loop Baker - Johnson is named in the mid rotations, while Baker is out on the wing and has only scored above 60 once. Johnson is going at 0.8 PPM while Baker goes at 0.5 FWIW.

Who are you looping them against?

Me too.

Leaning towards Johnson. He's at home, whereas Baker has back to back travel.

De Goey misses too many games for mine. Serong more durable, younger and hungrier, but less value and playing in a shitter team. 🤷‍♂️

Guess it depends - what is that $60k extra gonna get you?
Yeh that's a good point on De Goey missing games, nothing immediate springs to mind with the 60k but sometimes I always end up paying for these types of trades at the end of the season by not going for more value.

Looping against LEdwards.

I agree with your points, however Baker has played in wet conditions recently and on a fast, dry Optus track tonight could get plenty of outside ball and get close to a repeat of his 95 a few weeks ago. Johnson's TOG worries me and up against some decent opposition inside-mids (if that's his role) in Libba, Treloar and Bont.

Wasn't wet against Melbourne or St. Kilda though, and still scored sub-60.

In my mind, it's probably a gain of +10 if both score to the mean (more likely) or a loss of -30 if Baker goes big (less likely).
 
Chandler v Phillipou v F.Greene v Rowston on field?

Can’t E-loophole their scores
Fergus is starting to find his rythum I think he will do well down in tassie this week.

Sicily vs Sinclair vs Parish vs Mills
Sinclair seems to be the flavour of the month in these parts but I’d take Parish.
His role is set in stone unlike Sinc or Mills and he can get hot and go on big scoring runs.
I like Sicily the least but it’s pure gut feel.

Coz saints are winning, less b

Mills is a gun but is used in other areas .because he's good anywhere

If both used in the same role I feel mills can win .

He’s taking less kick ins but overall possessions and marks are about the same as last season. it’s probably a DE/effectiveness thing
