Wasn't as happy as some to hear Rocky will be on the plane, will be more worried that he plays restricted or is cotton balled early than if he was a known out.
I'm trading. Could a late out but also the fact he's underdone and we've seen what he can dish up in the past when that's the case. I think he goes 80-90 this week, then the bye, then ~95-100 over in Perth versus the Dockers.
 
I was actually running with Mummy at R2 until last week, had the same dilemma, decided that I had more faith in ROB and so cashed Mummy in (downgraded to Ladhams who moved to R3) which also allowed me to do Williams -> Whit.

I'd suggest you do something similar this week (I doubt that any of the cheap rucks are long-term options, but they should help for now), then ROB -> Gawndy (whoever you don't have) post-bye.
My main concern is that I'm unsure of when/how long ROB is going to last until they bring sauce back in. The initial plan was to hold both till round 13 and bring in Gawn the week after, but with Mummy losing cash its making me thinking. Mummy has a breakeven of 107 and faces Witts who hasn't conceded a fantasy tonne this season. Oskar Baker was my original downgrade target, but with Mummy likely to lose 15k I am unsure whether or not I'd be better off downgrading him.

My plan (O'Brien currently R2) was to wait until R14 and then go O'Brien to Gawn, and I might still do that.
After this week, if O'Brien is out then he is no different to players on a bye that are unavailable and you only need 18 starters. The main thing is that O'Brien plays this week (Jacobs will play SANFL supposedly) whilst we still need 22 strong starters.

If he isn't named next week R12 I could consider an upgrade but it would only be to Gawn who has the bye the following week. If he is out R13 then an upgrade makes no sense as you would be trading in a bye player (Gawn) who is also out.

Long story short I think O'Brien can realistically be upgraded next week if he's dropped or his R14 bye.
 
Tempting to bring in Gardner over Hinge. Scoring will be putrid but the dogs must rate him, surely he plays throughout the byes. JS is all that matters
Can't lose cash from $170k at least so I might even dump Petruccelle for Gardner if needed.
I'd rather Snelling even at $207k (come on Essendon)
Noble at $170k but doubt Collingwood play him anytime soon.
Deluca at Carlton a chance.

Laughed at Sutcliffe@$356k after discount, gee thanks fantasy.
They've gotta tweak their system of past AVG and discounts. Players hit a score point that just makes them pointless data cloggers.
 
What's the go with Guthrie? Just got an injury alert. That'll screw me if he's out, will have to field Hinge/Answerth.
He came back on last week.. Emergencies pretty important with all this Crouch, Danger, Constable, Rocky crap.
Hope Rockliff plays. Averages a nice 106 in China ;)

Sutcliffe is irrelevant to fantasy so I'd say they nailed it.

Yeah he had me worried last week but came back on and looked fine. The I’m browsing twitter and Marty Hore has iced strapped to his leg.

Honestly think I’m on track to set a record for most amount of injuries. Getting at least 2 a week.

How far back is a legitimate chance to have a real crack at winning this year. I'm currently in the 1200s just under 800 points from the clubhouse leader, am I any chance???

Traditionally the winners are up there in the top 100 pretty early on in the piece. No reason why you couldn’t get a hat though.

Either he plays as he would normally or he doesnt at all. I am setting up as if he isnt as he will be a late out becuase they will 'give him right up till the last second to prove himself'.
 
Surely Port don't actually risk Rocky? Injury prone player with a niggle and the fact they have the bye next weeks means you can wrap him in cotton wool for 2 weeks and have him 100% to go after the bye.
Power probably need to risk it for the 4pts...dropping this one against the Saints would drive a nail into their final 8 chances.

Things would need to go right. I am 1200ish myself.

any you would need to predict some down weeks for popular captains and nail someone else that week. Like Grundy will be heavily captained by top teams I would imagine. Wanna risk not going him?
