What to do with McIntosh
I have the same promblem.
Running with Cox and Giles atm.
Hoping Hmac gets named soon so i can downgrade Giles to someone before the bye.

Got his bye next week too!!!What to do with McIntosh
Can afford to bench him a bit longer i agree.
With Goldstein playing better with him out and Maric getting more and more expensive I'm not too sure how long to wait.

Exactly the same. Im seriously considering downgrading Hmac and just going with Cox and Giles. Pyke and Stephenson are the only targets worth mentioning who don't have a round 11 bye.
My only concern with both is job security. I need the guy I bring in to play round 11 for me, plus being able to cover a short term injury if one of my main rucks go down later on. Mumford and White coming back might be bad for Pyke... dunno what to do.

Yeah, it's not looking ideal.
I'm gonna bank on HMac getting named round 12.
Will probably downgrade Giles to the cheapest ruckmen getting a game next week to avoid a donut.
Looks to be out Pyke and Stephenson which you've mentioned or Hickey. Whichever is cheapest probably.
Then hope Redden keeps his spot and i'll avoid a donut in the ruck.
Well that decision just got made,
McIntosh to miss another 6 weeks

Yeah might pass, lol
Macintosh medial meniscus tear done while jumping according to report. Doesn't sound like the kind of thing that you recover from and go straight back to full time rucking.

Quick question - what's the best and cheapest option for McIntosh? I already have Ryder and Giles, and was holding HMac for the byes. But I don't care about the byes anymore - just want to make some money to spend elsewhere and get someone else in who will play regularly. Is Stephenson the best bet here? I don't have him, he's under 200+ and has a negative break-even.
Any advice would be much appreciated.

Would imagine, Stephenson, Pyke (although Mummy is back) and Jenkins are your cheapest playing rookies.
You could downgrade him for a DP Rookie who probably wont play ( Staley, Pattison etc ) and upgrade a forward rookie to Jarryd Roughead.
You only need to use Roughead as a ruck if the other two are out.
This is my plan.
Cox, McEvoy, Giles & Stephenson
McEvoy to Pattinson and bring Roughead into the forwards.
Only concern is if Jarryd gets made a stay home forward again...or Giles goes to shit when Brogan returns.
Hmm thinking of going HMac -> Goldstein.
Makes a bit of $ and I back him to keep scoring well, and HMac will be out for longer than 6 wks I reckon (ie: plays a few VFL games to get his touch back first)
Doesnt help with my bye, but I dont care, Rnd 11 is my dud rnd, Maric's too expensive and I want to keep my 2 gun ruck setup with Cox.
Ryder's the other option.. just worried about his consistency DT-scoring wise (happy with his actual onfield performance though!)

Yeah, and anyone risking Pyke is nuts - when Mummy comes back he's going to score poorly if he's even selected on the Seaby-LRT-White 2nd ruck rotisserie.
Will go Orren. Jenkins has poor JS compare to him anyway, I think.

Strongly considering going Cox --> Maric. Would net me around 20k as well as fix up my ruck situation over the bye rounds (I also have Giles, Big O and Jenkins)
I think Maric will average at least as much as Cox for the rest of the year.
What do you guys think?

Is it insane to sideways Giles>Goldy a week before their byes?
Goldy B/E 21 playing Hawks this week (could get 50 HO's) + no HMac for 6 weeks.
Someone talk me ot of it.

You will regret it when H-Mac comes back in. Remember he was playing in Longer on the weekend.

If you have the coin you're better off just trading Giles > Maric. Will complete your ruck division and fix the bye problem too. Of course you've got to have the extra 100k and Maric is close to his max price and has Sandilands in 2 weeks.

I do have the coin and I did consider that but, I think Cox will drop off again now that NicNat is back in the side. Maric has a B/E of 60 so should have one more price rise. Their estimated prices are almost identical for next week so basically, if I don't do it this week I won't do it at all.
Cynic,
Care to elaborate on your opinion?

What does everyone think of the JS of Tom Hickey?
