Swallow a forward option now? If Rowell is out for a while, Swallow could put up some nice scores.

Such a shame as well. I started him at less than 1% ownership and he would have been the most unique top 6 fwd too...bloody idiot

Wow.. adding sidebottom fwd status is such a massive trolling to the entire DT community but especially the owners who copped having to trade him this week.

Having Rowell and Smith combine for 1 point could have been a disaster, but dropping from 37th to 148th is far better than I was expecting.
Maybe not. Brisbane playing Thursday so anyone that doesnt have neal which is still alot due to his price will get him now for free vice cap.
Van was injured. 0 pt last quarter (makes his 76 super impressive) Unsure on what the injury is.
Waiting on some injury news..

As a poor sucker without him i would need to rob a bank to have any chance to get him in that week... I might have to volunteer to work that night to avoid watching the game For my mental health
Bloody hell didnt even know that. 76 in 3/4 is uber premo stuff. Atleast now i can rub him off. Will probably go Fort now. Just hope a geelong supporter can tell me how long more he will have. Thanks
Dude your posts r legendary. Sometimes i think im doing terribly then read your posts and im like ok he has it worse than me. U must be a zen master cause im always less stressed after your post.
1570 and scores improving each week so I guess that’s a positive.
Really wish we had just one more week with the 3 trades.
Will likely do a rookie downgrade and then upgrade Rowell to any mid under 750. Like the look of Mcluggage the past few weeks so may jump onboard there.
Hopefully Pickett should be back in action too for a while with the tigers Injuries and such

Concussion, copped a knee to the temple, didn't look good at all

I still have Brander and Naismith on the bench. Need to downgrade one of them and upgrade the other. If Rowell is out for a while then he will need to be upgraded.
Price changes sure are weird.
Whitfield had a break even of 84 (official app) going into the round, scores 101 and still loses money.
I know they said it's all proportionate to total points scored for the round but everyone else sucking or not shouldn't means Whit loses money. He did his job.

Interesting - I would have though on balance players would have boosted more, given Rowell would have been expected to shoot up a lot more.
It has to be proportionate otherwise the most expensive players would have dropped 100k in the first 2 weeks by not meeting the average from last year. Helps to balance things out a little.
Luckily didn’t have Smith to deal with but had to cop Rowell and Buderick but seems most had them so no difference.
4 players toning up was certainly a high for the year so far!
Glad you brought it up because I thought it was weird as well. Dusty had a break even of 72, scored 67 and lost 22k. Weird.
Cogs beat his breakeven and dropped too...
My impression was that they chucked McEvoy in ruck mostly because his lack of mobility was being exploited down back (a bit like Daisy's "throw Brodie Grundy forward because Cox is trash" idea the other night)... I assume they normally have better match-ups for him?
Regarding breakevens and price drops, it seems like scores actually haven't been as low as we might have expected with the shorter games (I haven't done the math on it but I guess it'd be fairly easy to). Maybe the powers that be are re-calibrating expectations of BCV vs ACV?
I hope not because my bloody forward line would suggest otherwise!
It doesn't look bad if you think about it as 110, 102, 84, 82, 78 and 70.
But it sure looks shit if its not multiplied by 1.25!
1586 with Rowell and Smith
Went up from 9600 to 4918.
Interestingly although I'm 550 points off 1st, I'm only 300 off 99th!!

Really? I'm struggling to hit 1,500 each week. Last year I'm pretty sure I was above 2,000, 90% of the time
25% difference in score with game time dropping by 20%?
