Position 2024 Rucks

[fuic08]

I'll probably hold Xerri all year as my eventual R2, he's been really good.

Only averaging 2.6 points a game less than English.

 

[toxic]

Yep.
The hope as a north supporter is with sheeze going well in the mids now he will be hitting to a more settled midfield.
The first half of the year must have been tough for him with different mids every 5 minutes.
At least now he may be able to work on a play or 2.

If Sweet plays this week Xerri is perfect

Meek owners, obviously he's got a niggle now and will miss a week. Looking beyond that, how are you feeling going forward? Are you content to hold him at R2 for the season?

I'm thinking hold until round 16, then make a call. Decide whether to hold, or luxury upgrade to English or Marshall for the run home (both will drop in price).

appeals with Cox out, was thinking about doing Meek to Cameron right now. But Cox will return, and Cameron has a tough fixture coming up (English, Gawn, Xerri, bye, Witts).

As an English Owner ....I'm shocked to think someone would consider him a luxury upgrade .....man, has he been frustratingly unreliable

I am bidding farewell to Lord Meek this week.

I don't have Jackson and Sweet will not play this week.

Time to bring in the Stick Insect.

Yeah fair enough. I have Jacko, so I'm happy to wait and see.

I think I want Marshall for the run home, not English.

Rucks used to be the easiest line just Set & Forget now they are just unreliable rabble.
I really wish I just started Gawm/Xerri

I went Marshall a couple of weeks ago because Saints have a really juicy Marvel run home. I reckon there has to be a few really big scores in there for him.

Yep agree. I think Marshall is the one to pick.

But he's over $600k now, and with that 70 in his 3-rd-avg, he'll keep dropping.

Same and my reasonings too.

 

[MrChristo]

For those thinking about ditching Grundy, he's got Conway/Stanley at the SCG next Sunday.
Looks like a pretty handy VC into Zerrett/Daicos/Gawn to me.

 

[Pavlovs Cat]

Sweet is gone so I went Witts. He's been rested twice and has a bye coming up so I'm hoping he will be a decent POD on the run home. Coming into finals the PODs are going to be vital with so many trades so I'm backing Witts in as one of mine.

 

[VeinGlorious]

I have Max

I need a R2
English- not convinced by him in 2024 - think he's going west
Marshall- meh - Ross
S.Darcy = L.Jackson = no
L.Jackson = S.Darcy = already at f3 (please rest Sean)
Grundy - no
Meek - no
Oscar Mc - no


I'm left with 3 odd choices

J.Witts - seems to be a rest candidate
Xerri - like the lad
Nankervis - currently my choice for R2

I'd never considered him but he's consistent and reasonably durable

Am I crazy for not going English or Marshall

Not crazy.

What about D-Cameron?
