Game Day 2023 Round 8 Discussion - where are our Rookies ?

[WaynesWorld19]

Only 5? Gee you must be going well.

Nothing to this game

 

[stevebbb]

So is Davey playing for sure, or is he a potential in?






I swear it used to be an extended bench is named, then the bench gets finalized. Anybody named on field is in. Is this not the case any more?

 

[fuic08]

That Bergman kent from North better make the final 22.

Have been waiting since round 4 for his return.

****ing Clarko. Poor bloke was a late out with illness and now he's gone. I've only got 2 green dots on the bench, I need him.

 

[Kreuuuzeurns]

Who are we looping with Seamus? McKenta or Cincotta?

Usually if a player gets named on field they are a lock to play but not always, I can't see the point in naming him on field and then leaving him out.

Can't remember a time a player name on field ended up as an emergency.

On field to me is locked in.

 

[South of the Yarra]

I can't wait for tomorrow night's game. Big SC game and huge ramifications for both clubs if there is a loss.

 

[stevebbb]

Got a few loophole options this...

There's a simple Wilmot/Seamus/Constable loop at D6

I got the E on Cincotta at M9, if he does well, I can move Taranto FWD, move Roberts to M8, to take his score

If I'm happy with Wilmot's score at D6, I could trade to move Seamus FWD (Chesser goes to D8), then I can take (or loophole) Seamus in the FWD line

 

[vanders]

4 changes for the Sun's and still no Kentstable

Not even emergency

Wilmot/McKenna and Cincotta @ D7/M9 is the go this week. Mitchell helps a lot with DPP loops.

If anyone doesn't know how to utilise a DPP loop after using all their trades this week (changing players positions around in your team without using a trade), please shout out!

 

[Better Loosen Up]

All i'm going to say is that i'm very happy with this week's teams. If i go into any detail, the sc gods will whack me, i just know it!

You're trading in Aaron Hall aren't you?

 

[SC fish]

Sticking to my trades of Jackson, Jones and Cowan to Oliver, Cincotta and RSJS* Simpson.

Leaves me with this with loops on three lines:


*RSJS = rock solid job security

Mate he plays for Geelong. You've just jinxed him. He'll be a late out now, listed as 'short term' with a lower leg and never to be seen again!

 

[Better Loosen Up]

I think i've suffered enough already this season without going down the path of self-inflicting...

 

[blueiris]

Sharp has been playing really well at VFL this season likely off the wing probably means Wilmot will be playing off half-back

Very kind offer.

I've got the emergency loophole running in the fwd line with red-dot Roberts at F6, the (E) on Simpson, and JVR.

I think I'm buggered by how many Blues and Lions rookies I have to do a proper loop with the mids and def lines, but if you have any ideas - shoot.

There's currently red-dot Johnson at M8, Hollands with the (E) at M9 and Davey at M10.

Then in my def line, Wilmot @ D5, Cincotta @ D6, Cowan @ D7, Mitchell @ D8.

Feel like I have to pick 2 of Wilmot, Cincotta and Mitchell to play on-field, even though I have a spare Constable sitting around at m11. Cause I can't move Cowan, and Mitchell is fwd/def, not mid/def.

Unless you can see another way?




Hell, I'd even appreciate a call on which 2 I field out of Wilmot, Cincotta and Mitchell.

 

[TheArchitect]

I think if you showed me the 1st place team, and the 25k ranked team side-by-side, I would genuinely think 25k is better.

Honestly the team doesn't look great

 

[Sherman41]

Sigh.
Sturt out
Tyler young out

Got some dead rookies at the moment.
Sturt
Young
Cowan
Noah long (injury has been about 2 weeks longer than expected)
Johnson
Madden

Rookies just continue to find a way to f up cash gen lately.

Yeah I had the same issue with F7 and F8 not being DPP. Heck, I still do. But I get around it by swinging Cogs forward and getting a rookie off the midfield if I need to loop in a F7 score.

Wilmot Cincotta (Mitchell Cowan)
Johnson (Roberts Hollands Kenstable)
Simpson (Davey JVR)

Working it out took like 5 edits of this post. It's a cooked situation. Over 10 minutes to work out pretty much what you were thinking. I would back Wilmot at home. Cincotta on form and Simpson on potential.

Rekon mines no worse and ranked 20k.

Why do I feel selection is the calm before the storm?

I'm really getting sick of your spelling and grammar actually being understandable now.
