Dow vs Naughton

Ignore positional difference, just compare on average, JS, value

Naughton is a better 200k+ Rookie than Dow due to position in my opinion. Dow, there are way better rookies, in my opinion, to have in front of him like Brayshaw, kelly, banfield, holman, etc..... where as in defence I see Naughton as one of the better options.

Note: I am rocking three onfield rookies in defence, and Naughton is one of the onfield rookies.

Dow + Venables or Rayner + Barry?

Dow + Venables. I think Venables has slightly more JS then Barry, but Barry has the better scoring potential. I’d go Dow over Rayner, similar JS but Dow has the better role.


Edit:
Hibberd + Parker + Sicily
Or
Sicily + Parker + Billings
Or
Brayshaw + Zorko(Dusty/Adams) + Billings

Second option for mine
The gap between Zorko and Coniglio is probably 10ppg (110 vs 100)
The gap between Smith and Petracca is probably 10ppg (95 vs 85)
The gap between Rayner and Fristch is probably 10ppg (65 vs 55)
Net result of +20ppg with option 2 I reckon

Fairly sure I am down to my last x/y decision with my side, its a choice of a midfielder and forward

Walters + Rockliff/Cripps/Whitfield (early 700k range)
Robinson + Treloar

Or If I can somehow find 3k in my side
T.Lynch + Steven
That would be a difference of +10ppg if my arithmetic is correct.

Yep it's only 10 on that math, not 20.

The Smith option gives me no DPP and while Coniglio is a great starting pick, I feel he's better suited to a starting M6 rather than a M5, my midfield looks stronger with a Treloar/Zorko at M3 who are good chances to be top 10 mids. Really surprised Billings didn't get DPP, he's sitting at F2 currently in this set up but I can use his cash in midfield instead if I feel I get more points elsewhere.

Petracca at least has DPP going for him so he can be F7/M9 if he only averages in that 75-85 range. Reckon Smith is in the 85-92 Dahlhaus range, not 95.

Might cut a premium forward and see if I can use the funds in midfield instead too though.
 
Can downgrade Zorko down to Macrae or Rocky and get Smith that way

Reckon Macrae will be solid this year and should be around the 105-110 range, but can probably get him cheaper during the year, Rocky a risk and one I've been burned a few times by by the need to trade him in out.
 
Guys, is it worth upgrading Barry -> Dow, or just keeping the cash for fix up trades in round 3? The rest of my team is set fairly set (if Coffield is named as an emergency I will likely keep him and play one of Doedee/Finalyson/Naughton)

Considering this myself. If Barry named pick him unless you think he will be straight out for gray.

If $$ allows go Coffield to Dow though, no use taking in a non playing cash cow.
 
No Coffield if that comes to pass means I don’t want to carry 3 rookies on field in defence. I am thinking of:

Kelly + Coffield

V

Laird + Dow

Severely weakens my midfield but if Laird can average 100, points should be fine.

Josh Kelly? I think I'd go josh kelly and conffield. Naughton seems to have locked his place down. Laird will most likely average what you pay for him I think.

But a non-playing rookie in defence when fielding 3 is rort with danger. I was fine with that formation thinking Coffield would have been a solid D4 to start the year.

Yeah that's completely fair. The way I've combatted this is I've found a way to get conffield up to Byrne whilst maintaining my structure. I really didn't want to lose my M6. Could be an option

I have tentatively gone:

Coffield > Bonner
Rayner > Fogarty
Kruezer > Martin

I really don't like it, but, it is the only thing that I can do without killing my structure. The only other option is taking Kelly to Parker/Coniglio

Yeah I want bonner but I was about 5k short.

You won't regret Martin surely, sole ruck who is almost a midfielder. Hopefully the smith experiment has been put to bed. Not sure about Rayner > Fogarty just worried about security.

Bonner v Byrne.....for my structure it needs to be one. Both have their pro's and con's.

Which leaves upfront losing Waterman or Ryan - one of those will be changed to a keeper - not sure which one to keep though??? They'll probably average roughly the same but it's more of a roll of the dice for job security.

Waterman goes out when Kennedy comes back in. Not to mention he will be playing fairly deep when playing. I would be avoiding him all together to be honest
 
Cripps Vs Treloar Vs Gibbs
I need some help Keep changing my mind

I have neither, but if I was gonna pick one, go Treloar. Cripps is unproven ever and Gibbs is unproven at his new club. Treloar is definitely the safer of the three.

Waterman's been coming up the ground for marks. Ryan is the one who stays deep
