Maybe Tom Browne is just wrong. I think it might have happened before.
Problem I have is my planned trades now have to wait till tomorrow night .....2 trades left, but have both Zilliams and Doch ......so annoying if this turns out to be more Tom Brown clickbait

Yeah it’s a tough one.

I’ve currently got 22 premos but have Simpkin, Williams and doch.

Then for cover I’ve got:
Rivers/mcpherskn
Schoenberg/dead m-f/dead m-f
Draper
Comben/mozz

I’ve got 1 trade and 1.5k.

Weighing up if I should trade Draper to Rozee/SPS. It should mean I avoid donuts but it won’t be ideal under lots of scenarios.

Rivers & McPherson are adequate cover in Def and just as likely to score as well as SPS imho

You have just enough $$ for Draper > Jezza though. Capable of pulling 150+ scores out of his arse when he's on.

Jezza plays early enough to be used as the first half of a loop in both remaining rounds. That could be a good call, cheers.
 
As Neale went big last night (I was expecting him to be no more than $615k), I can't keep Rivers & get Greaves.

So for me this week, it's

- Rivers to Greaves (D7 and will fill in for Doc if he's out)
- 1 of Wicks/Shoenberg/Riccardi to Neale

Leaning to ditching Wicks, but if Riccardi isn't named, it might be a tricky call.

3 trades and only 66k

I have big issues with possibly Docherty and Williams both missing and 0 cover.

I was planning on doing:
Riccardi & Rivers/Shoenberg to a FWD (475k or less) i
Option include: Bailey Smith, Walters, Dixon, Dawson, Parish

Playing purely for overall.

If one of Williams or Docherty misses I will be forced to trade them. In that scenario hopefully Cavarra doesn't play and I can loop Close and Riccardi

Any suggestions?

If Doc or Williams misses you could do either of them to Rich and then turn Rivers/Riccardi into Acres/Chad. Give you a 'completed' team.
 
Anyone have any good feelings about which of Simpkin, Doc and Zilliams will miss?

I've got all 3 and need to trade one of them out tonight so I can finish my team by moving BJ Williams into the rucks and upgrading Draper. Leaning Zilliams at this point as I have better cover in the forward line.

Who's more untrustworthy: Tom Browne or the GWS medical staff?

My guess Williams plays. Sounds more like precautionary/awareness and they need to win.
No idea on Doc as not even sure if anything in the report.
 
Have 2 trades left and unsure if I should use them this week or not and go to the no trades left club for some scotch and cokes.

Doc, Simpkin and J.Martin all under injury clouds.


I could do J.Martin > Wingard and Draper > Rozee via Comben and have a complete team but worried about Doc not playing.

Thoughts?

Think you have to hold at least until you’re certain who is playing. By that I mean an hour before the game if you can.

Yeah that's probably the best way to go.

If .J.Martin doesn't play then at least I will still be able to trade him to Wingard.

Two trades left coming into the second last round?
What did you do to the real J_M and where did you hide the body?

Going out on a limb

all 3 play and we’re worrying for nothing

Williams no doubts
Simpkin has a week off he’ll be fine to play
Doch is minor and a test
If it was bad he would’ve already been ruled out. Carlton need to win

see how wrong or right I am in a few days
 
I currently have Doch (D5) & McPeherson (D6)... with no reliable bench cover.

My earlier plan was to upgrade McPherson -> Daniel. However if Doch misses, I could be stuck with a zero.

So now I'm thinking.. Should I just keep McPherson as my D6 and upgrade Doch -> Ryan ?

What do you guys think?

Traded out Chad two weeks ago... could bring him back :rainbow:

That's my gut feel as well.
Doc not being even mentioned on the CFC medical report makes me think he'll play.
Probably the most confident in Simpkin playing.
Honestly most concerned about Williams given his (and the GWS medical reporting) history
