Is it crazy to hold Scrimshaw and Constable? I've got warm (and fairly able) bodies on my bench so I can still field an emergency on every line (except ruck driftwood). If I can get away with it surely it's worth a one week wait?

I wonder if Constable is only 1 week though. Constable i would consider moving on from. Scrimshaw, ehhhh, either way with him. I wouldn't tell you NOT to keep him. Hes a tough call. My guess would be move on (because i am not sure how much more he is really going to make you), unless you have other pressing issues
 
After looking at my matchup this week again, i scrapped my previous plan and decided to just bank the cap. This trade should leave me in just about the same spot and puts me at 424K. With money to make on top of it. Think I may have been getting a bit too big for my britches....

These are good trades even though Ross has made a lot of money already they'll both make more money than your 2 non playing outs. Sometimes you just have to keep turning over the cheapies to make a few dollars.

Thanks. I tried to balance how much meat was left on the bone, possible scoring loss, job security and the added cap. It just made too much sense in the end. I dont see much more to gain with Constable and Cousins. I wanted to get on these 2 while there was still a decent chunk to make with them. It also has virtually zero effect on my scoring

Yeah thanks for that. I'll stew over it today
 
Teams have certainly thrown a few plans out the window! Been toying with it all week but have decided to drop whitfield with the hope of picking him up a bit cheaper when he returns and run the risk. Going Whitfield to T.Stewart and B.Scott (FINALLY!!!) to Answerth (on bench). Hopefully Answerth generates a bit of cash for me and I can upgrade some players next week. Leaves with with around $320k in my warchest for next week...
 
A perfect example. Instead of letting Whitfields 800K just sit, you are making it work for you. Look what he turned Whitfield and Constable into

ture - but he would need 200k+ in the bank already to go Whit + cons -> laird + boak

i like the trade but dont have the cash to make it happen.
 
Are there any brissy fans that can shed any light on Answerth? It doesn’t appear like his job security is remotely good. And whoever we are all downgrading to at this stage in the season NEEDS to be playing through the byes for us or we’re ****ed

Drew > Larkey (F6)
Constable > Laird

5 rooks on field

Giving Libba another week and holding Scrim
If Libba crabs it up again i'll likely trade him down and Scrim up to Sicily next week

My trades were Scrim > Answerth and Libba > Merrett. Was going to be Rocky but changed my mind so expect him to go ham tonight

Need a couple FWD rooks to emerge as Drew/Parker/Petru have topped out. $105K in bank

Off the top of my head, I don't think I've ever seen a Brisbane fan in here...
People did post that he wasn't much of a fantasy scorer in the NEAFL.

I asked on the Brisbane board and got this reply

“From what we understand he is a pretty versatile player and has the ability to play multiple roles including wing, midfield, half forward, half back and lock down defender. The club rates him highly.
As to his job security, if he continues to play well and fulfill his role he will probably remain in the team but time will tell in that regard.
I think most on here rated his first game for his composure and willingness to play on quickly”
 
Nah I'd only have $252K after Scrim > Answerth. Libba isn't a keeper so I don't really mind, it's just being stuck with these fwd rookies too long being the worry
Yeah its a massive issue these forward rooks. Next week id be looking at one of your bench down and drew up!

EDIT: Have you thought of getting boak instead of Merrett, swinging him forward for Drew and then playing hayes on field?

Thanks lad. Maybe his versatility means his JS is slightly better than we think.... Although I might play it 'safe' and go Larkey instead

That's not a bad idea tbh. Does require 70's from Ross/Hayes as mids look much weaker with both fielded but assists in moving those fwd rookies earlier
 
New plan:

Constable -> Ross (similar output, saves over 130k, BE of -13, avoids having Gibbons on field)
Clark -> Houli (risk of injury but nearly 100k cheaper than other DEFs for similar avg and BE of 55)

Burgess survives yet another week. 200k in the kitty for next week. Next week, Whit and Scrim off the bench and maybe Libba to a uber Premo mid or focus on getting Drew off my field.
 
Who would you get rid of this week Sheed or Libba?

I am thinking Sheed might get a kick against GC
