The way back to glory!

I absolutely guarantee you that bringing Chesser and Flanders back in is NOT the path to glory 🤣🤣
 
My season is so bad I'm toying with the idea of just doing what trade assist tells me to do each week
Me too, including when it said trade out Lord Nick!
 
JVR feels like a trap IMO

Young key forward, only 50 against WC, with McDonald and Fritsch getting more F50 targets.

Just my thoughts
Agree. Have always argued against KPF. Ben Brown back complaint too, and although supporters seem to hate him, the coaches don’t and he’s a important cog in our structure. That being said, they‘ve held JVR back for a loooooooong time. He was ready to debut last year. Think he’ll be given a good run at it, and the upcoming draw is favourable.

JVR is helping in the ruck though, so that might keep him in
TMac has pinch hit before and is pretty mobile.
 
In order to restructure and grab some studs, I took a risk and severely weakened my backline (Jordan Shitley out)

Overall it paid off, I scored OK and had a solid jump in the rankings

But my weak D4 to D6 scored very poorly, and now next week I might be looking at donuts...

Ginbey D4
Wilmot D5
Cowan D6

Ginbey might be rested
Wilmot might be dropped
Cowan might be dropped

I'll trade to deal with one donut, but if it's 2 or 3, I might just cop it on the chin


Cowan looks solid as part of Carlton's back 7. O'Brien and Honey can make way for Acres and Walsh.
Wilmot kicked a goal in a good Lions win, hopefully he keeps his spot. Not sure who the Lions have kicking the door down for a wing spot though.
Ginbey is the worry though, especially after the coaches comments after looking tired.

What are my chances of surviving this?


$142k for Tylar Young is an option. No Gibcus for 3-5 weeks and Tarrant just got injured on his return to the VFL. Just scored 61 and has a BE of -31

I am same boat my friend. Just pray for green dots and work it out next week with DPP.

Collingwood wanted JVR as part of the Grundy trade I learnt today. You would think there isnt much sense in sending him back to the 2's to continue growing, when he is in the best position to do so right now.

You always seem to speculate that players will be dropped and plan around that eventuating, but more often than not it doesn’t. Plan for them playing, then adjust according if dropped.

Yeah he gets a good run now, until he tires. Prob misses 2-3 around Byes. Not sure I’d be expecting decent scores each week tho. He’ll have an Amartey (😩) type game at some stage

Chandler, Caminiti and Greene are mooing nicely, so I think I'll skip JVR. I'll look at Williams next week if he does well.


Early stages, I'm thinking:

-Davey or Chesser to Tylar Young

Davey can go if he's out long-term with an ankle (waiting for the injury report), otherwise I'll just "correct" Chesser


Dochertrash to Nicky Daics is also tempting

Tough gig for Ginbey on the weekend following Oliver around most of the day, I was getting tired watching the poor kid.

I have traded Chandler out who I bought in for Round 3. His scores were wasting away on my bench and has made his 130k target for me.

This week, to get Kossie, one well performing rookie has to go.
 
Any idea Kent’s?

I’ve traded Setterfield to Pickett already.
Not sure I need JVR…
Really want to scrap L. Jones, but I’m kinda hoping he can become Ports rookie forward (Williams, Sheezel to swing down back)
Day’s suspension is a worry tho.

That is a terrible trade why would u trade Setters? Pickett is not a must have
 
* it. My season is done anyway. Time to throw the rule book out the window. I laughed at others for bringing in Chandler late, so hypocritical, but I’ve got nothing to lose.

Michalanney the best option cheaper than Young, and still a cash cow with a BE of -45 with a 55k projected price rise. And he keeps Wilmot and Cowan on the bench.

Someone talk me in to it, or out of it if theres a better DEF option under 450k

A rookie that’s already made close to $110k? What if he throws in another sub 50?

He played really well on the weekend, but he still played a predominantly lock down role.
