Tossing up these mids, do I have them in the right order?

1. Beams
2. Cripps
3. Oliver
4. Shuey

 

[Aussie_boy]

I'm getting Buddy in for Sicily. Stuff it.

 

[alexfish]

Grundy/Hurn. Just checked Hurn's scores and he has been consistent over the last month and has a nice run of home games coming up. I think he will only be around 10 pts less than Lloyd per week from here. Grundy still probably 15-20 pts better than Stef. Last week was an anomaly for Grundy, it was the week I brought him in which explained why he got his lowest score in the past 50 games and failed to ton up after going 100+ for months this year. I expect him to put that behind him and finish the year strongly, he's too good to be cursed that badly by me.

I knew I just needed to hear someone other than myself say it. Will leave me with Hurn Yeo and Gaff in the team but that is probably a good problem to have. I was also thinking about hoping to Grundy through Stef but problem just silly at this point in the season

Depends on cash situation. I would say you probably have the order right, Beams and Cripps about level on average, just ahead of Clayton. But all should average 100+ I reckon.

So could consider:
-if strapped for cash Shuey is a good option.
-if assessing draw, Carlton has a easy run.
-Beams could be tagged, or Zorko could be tagged, in which case Beams will be BIG. Cripps/Oliver not easy to tag as in and under types.

If he hits 150 this week it'll be worth it!

I'd have Oliver ahead of Crippa. I reckon it will get to a point where Cripps loses some motivation for this season whereas Oliver and Melb will be fighting for finals. Oliver has been really good recently as well, has flown under the radar so much. I'm sure he will be in a lot of teams in the future, seems destined to be a dreamteam star.

 

[browncow]

I’m actually rethinking my trades.

What combo has the highest likelihood of scoring the most this week?

1.Trade Parker to Gaff, keep de Goey.
2.Trade Parker to Danger, keep de Goey.
3.Keep Parker, trade de Goey to Danger.

So which combo likely scores higher?
1.Gaff/de Goey
2.Danger/ de Goey
3.Parker/Danger.

Keeping in mind that Parker plays Gold Coast and would be traded to Gaff/Macrae next week if I kept him.

Isnt he on the second line of betting for the Brownlow. That's certainly something to keep him performing!

 

[PAFC27]

I reckon trading in Cripps is asking for disappointment. Not because he won't average 120 but because he's the sort of player Carlton would put on ice, especially with talk in the media about his heavy workload.

Or I'm talking out my ass. Just something to think about.

 

[Jason Derulo]

Was gonna get heeney this week and macrae next but now the motherf****n sic dawg is out I can get macrae this week.
I should probably get macrae and not wait for his price to drop right? Gunning for the top 1k so guess my trades are
L ryan > 170k
Sic > Crae

 

[samFFC]

Tuohy - has 4 games at Cattery left
Or
Hurley - good when Bombers win - reasonable run home
Or
Hurn - good at home - 3/6 at home plus away to Brisbane

?

I wouldn’t want to be relying on the bombers to win! Using that logic I’d say Hurn safest choice.

 

[Joao]

Buddy or Heeney?

Bud is about 30k cheaper and can go big but Heeney is probably safer.

 

[Quazza]

I reckon trading in Cripps is asking for disappointment. Not because he won't average 120 but because he's the sort of player Carlton would put on ice, especially with talk in the media about his heavy workload.

We'd lose by 20 goals every week

What about Beamer v Oliver ?

 

[Eskimo_Fennel]

So which combo likely scores higher?
1.Gaff/de Goey
2.Danger/ de Goey
3.Parker/Danger.

Somewhat of a fools errand to try and predict Luke Parker's score. He has 6 scores under 75 from 16 games. From a "premo" mid, that's nice and trash. Having said that, de Goey doesn't mind scoring 60s/70s. And while I have Danger in my forward line, and it's nice to look at it (especially given his 150 last week), he too is prone to serving up a 70. Gaff meanwhile has only gone under 90 twice this year (both in the 80s - lowest of 82). He's as safe an option as you can get and with a good ceiling. He's scored as many 120s as Parker has scored under 75. It's hard to recommend who to go, especially with Danger going well last round and Parker playing Gold Coast in Sydney, but of those choices I would suggest going with the safe option; get Gaff, he won't let you down (while the other three all could) and deal with de Goey next week if possible. Apologies in advance if you do and parker/danger both go 120+

Totally agree with everything you said.
I'm torn on Gaff/de Goey and Parker/Danger at the moment.

Parker was showing signs of improvement before last week with a five week average of 101.

Either way, whichever of Parker/de Goey doesn't get traded this, will be on the chopping block next week.

 

[Andrew Birch]

Shame about Sicdog but we must move on.

Sicily > Macrae
Spargo > O.Riordan

102k left over towards upgrading one of Adams, Sinclair or Rocky next week.

 

[DustyTiggers]

I think I'm getting Sloane in this week despite my own advice. He's such a good player and cheap. But if he gets tagged....
Or just get Heppell, low break even, decent player. Sloane or Heppell?

 

[Shadow89]

1.Trade Parker to Gaff, keep de Goey.

3.Keep Parker, trade de Goey to Danger.

1.Gaff/de Goey
2.Danger/ de Goey
3.Parker/Danger.

Keeping in mind that Parker plays Gold Coast and would be traded to Gaff/Macrae next week if I kept him.

Parker is worth more, has a BE of 113 and most likely tagged by Miller this week if JPK doesn't get up. De Goey BE of 90, worth less and won't be tagged and can score well. I'd stay with De Goey

Danger 120K less and should score higher and keep his mid role now that Menzel is back in the side. Both can go massive, but Gaff a slight chance of a Dunkley tag

I'd be going De Goey / Danger, then De Goey next week to Macrae

 

[Shadow89]

I honestly want this weekend to be over so I can just bring in Macrae next week already. Haven't been this excited about my team since I first brought him in. Having him sit there next to Titch, then Gaff and Cogs in the top 4 is the stuff dreams are made of haha

Callum Sinclair has got a tiny head compared to the rest of his body.
