Yeah fair enough, just looking at J Allan for the crows doesn't seem to have a backup ruckman and is cheap.

Do you have a source?
Vukic isn't a worry. I was expecting her to be named. Borg is a surprise. McKee seemed just fine spelling Edmonds in the exhibition game. Now I assume Borg will take all the R2 ruck contests. The question is, how many is that? Are they going to waste a bench spot on somebody who is going to play ~20% of the game?
Gould was a test, so should hopefully be back next week. Crows will most likely run Biddell/Prowse and a few randoms in the ruck to back her up.
Yeah fair enough, rules out Edmonds for me then i think, Wales or Allan now..
Stinear mentioned it at his press conference today. Both her and Beasley had to get through fitness tests.
I'm considering Morphett as well. Sheerin out means I'm doing a lot more tinkering than this time last year. Last year I only had my D5 not get named. D1 is a lot more painful.
Hard to pick a player that's been injured all pre-season. Also hard to pick anyone based off of 1 practice match.
Im just going straight to Thomas from Sherrin, doesn't change much.
Agreed on both.
The fact that Syndey didn't pick any real R2 options is either a sign of confidence, or a sign she'll be a late out for Smith. Fortunately, they're the first game, so if I go that route and she's a late out, I can just downgrade her to someone.
Now that I've got some money freed up, I'm considering a Wales switch as well, given Steph has a better run of early games.
Thomas is definitely a consideration, but I don't have the cash to straight swap Sheerin to her. I'd have to make changes elsewhere, so I'm considering a bunch of options, especially since I think there's a wealth of budget D options.
No Sheerin has thrown a curve ball. I'm iffy on Ruby Schleicher but clearly she is very popular with 40% ownership.
What's the consensus? Any chance Jordyn Allen is going to steal some of her thunder?

Yes, first comment. Get f--king price order thanks.
How much cash are you lot leaving ITB for the inevitable rookie that goes Bang? Price rises can be pretty steep early, so do you keep cash ITB or have a couple of downgrade targets you can swing to from your starting squad?

Is everyone just working off the internet or is there an app?

Can also someone please explain how it works the rounds where teams play twice?
The Flying Belgian
Third Tall
Similar to BBL Supercoach, both scores are counted in that round for any player with the double round. But with only two trades per round you can't really load up too much for any one bye.
This is in the guidelines section at the bottom of the page.
I would assume that a Players BE is calculated after the 1st game of a DGW, but I might be wrong and it's the aggregate of the 2 games.
Could be some large price movements in rookies.

I did have a look at last year's games and Borg's only game is the one where Edmonds missed. So this is the first time we'll see them play together. And the issue is more around whether Edmonds drops from a 80 to a 65 with Borg playing - difference between playing a majority vs a full game.
re: Sheerin - I do have enough $ to move straight to Thomas but now I'm pondering with Goldrick under a cloud whether to downgrade Sheerin to shore up D3 as well.
Other consideration - I take a punt and move Serene Watson up to D3 (Sheerin to Heads) and run with Lutkins, Finn and Beatty at D4/D5/EMG, and then upgrade Ellie McKenzie to Bonnici or Ally Anderson with Davey out. I did have both for extended periods last year and having them at M4 would be amazing.

So if I'm going to sacrifice the backline somewhat...this is how it looks. $16k ITB.
Sheerin to Heads (injury)
Goldrick to Beatty (injury cloud + cash saving)
Ellie McKenzie to Anderson (love this upgrade)
Syme to Breed (saving some cash)
McKee to Ella K Smith (better role now)
Brennan to Hodder, who oddly seems to score better against the stronger teams (68 v Swans, 65 v Pies, 74 v Roos, 62 v Crows, 92 v Mel, then scored 69, 61 and 92 in the 3 finals matches) compared to the weaker teams (14 v Hawks, 30 v Saints, 49 v Tigers). Lions first 3 matches are against Roos, Pies and Dees.

Gold Coast have such a dearth of midfielders though, outside of those 3 who really can go through the middle of those named...she may end up getting more game time than we think. But I'd be reluctant to start her, probably wait a week and see...
