Not super crazy at all.

 

[Red Syrah]

3 trades left - is it worth a trade tobring in jelwood?

Thinking I'll hold pendles and trade newman to jelwood.

 

[rocker_oz33]

Sloane,pendles,danger and Ryder going to be a champagner of a week.

Ryder should play....but the other stooges.

Are you going for overall or league win? If the former, i'd trade. If the latter, i'd hate to come across a POD Danger captain in finals, which is likely to be a hurdle in every final match.

Toby McLean has exploded in the last month, scoring 98, 86, 123 and 115. Anyone jumping on?

Hi all,

Need to get rid of mitch hibberd now he is out for the season. Any good mid downgrade options on the bubble?

That head ducking champagner has been stealing dollys points.
Noo not jumping on.

Sloane still a reasonable chance to play

Freo guy def 117k on the bubble js might dodgy.

 

[WaynesWorld19]

Someone said Witts was hurt at training today .... anyone heard anything, or is this a mate simply pushing my buttons ?

 

[WaynesWorld19]

ATM is not who's not playing from my much admired midfield ( on paper) .... but who will play

Sloane, Danger, Pendles, Scooter .... and so on & on

Nothing on the twitter streets,on this.

 

[Obese Arachnid]

Thanks ... and kicking myself that I didn't call anyone a campaigner in my 'welcome'. And pub was probably self-evident, at least for those that manage to make it out the front door.

Cash - $146.6K
Aim - for the first time ever, overall

And shrinkage is bad. Currently up in sunny Canberra, just enjoying a tropical holiday. Just need to find a public servant to rub some more of that coconut oil on ...

LOL.

I'd hold or maybe go S Selwood to Jelwood especially with Danger probably missing this week.

Risky leaving you one trade left but you have good cover & loopies.

I'm not an expert so maybe listen to others.

Can simply trade danger back in if required would be my logic.
Out 2E or Dollhouse type and upgrade Greenwood

 

[Abstract]

Thinking about going Witts and Greenwood to Kreuzer and Heeney..

How many games does danger have to miss, $$$ dropped or playing injured to make the trades worthwhile?

 

[Judd_Magic]

Fwiw, 8 of top 20 had Pendles on field, by looks (very quick scan)
1x Beams
1x S. May
2x Sloane
2x Rocky
3x Gawn
(Couldn't see who they benched, suspect higher ownership Sloane / Rocky, e.g.)
Top ten get cash, no? First might be out of reach, still plenty to play for, though.

Can you still make a run for top 10? Cant be that far off the pace. See what happens at selection and take a look at who might give you an edge. You may never get a chance to get this close again!

Just had a look and I am 201 points off 10th.

Just not sure what to do.

I really want to win my cash league as I won it last year and would love to go back to back.

If Pendles only misses 2 weeks I would be fine with that but I can't tell for sure.

 

[jdeezy]

Got 3 trades left, need to win both weeks to be any chance of hitting the finals, this week should be easy but next week is a big one, so I'm going for broke.

Sloane > Wingard
means Dahlhaus / Witherden / Greenwood will be M8/9/10 this week (probably M7/8/9 with Danger out)

Then next week, 82k + Greenwood + Matt White should give me at least 700k (hopefully a fair chunk more) to get two blokes in, probably Dusty plus some sort of decent warm body, for a final midfield of Danger / Jelwood / Neale / JPK / Hanners / Bont / Treloar / Dusty, Withers as bench cover, and a forward line of Yeo / Chad / Buddy / Punchable / Nank and a Lynch / Dahl loop combo (or Nank to ruck over Darcy and play both).

 

[Donkey Magoo]

7 trades left.

What are your thoughts on Newman V Shaw? I have both but want to upgrade one to Hurley.

 

[Huttabito]

Thinking about going Witts and Greenwood to Kreuzer and Heeney..

Sexy.

 

[Riviat]

Am looking at Treloar or Sidebottom as my Pendlebury replacement. Either of them likely to pick up their scoring in Pendlebury's absence?

Leave my Sidey POD alone!

 

[clogwearer]

Alright. Watson or Sloane out for Jelwood?

 

[clogwearer]

My gut says get rid of Shaw but that's because I hate him. You might be better off getting rid of Newman, not sure he's got the scores left in him this year.

Ask yourself, what would Mav do ?


Just about every week from here will feel this way...injuries and "resting" players for finals will be a weekly thing to deal with and no trades to deal with it. The new normal.
Assume 2 possible 3 for Pendlebury. The majority of the top 50 will be desperate to hold and cover coz very few will have >2-3 trades left. More important do you believe he would necessarily average higher than 90ish when he returns ? i.e. 2-3 weeks out then maybe 1 to 2 more at 90ish. The bloke hasnt exactly been setting the world on fire before this injury has he.

4 left in the kitty and i;m spending one on dumping him.

We arnt here for the excellent sandwiches Mav.

Whats the downside moving him on ? He comes back earlier than thought and does bugger all anyway ?
Go hard or go home champ....we know you're top 50 and gunning it. Been there twice and was far too conservative and ended up out in the 200's....regret not going harder and risking a finish in the 400's.

I feel the need, the need for speed.
