As a Billings owner, guess I have shittruck awareness.

Ok campaigners here's my team for this week after ditching Naughton and Holman for Phillips and Ronke.

$223,600 in the kitty for next week to go Kelly > Danger or Doedee/Murray > Yeo.

I thought about ronke.
He's very tempting.
I just think the risk is his 7 goals is a one off.
I worry about rookies with impressive scores who get them through a high number of goals and bugger all else stats.
I would guess of the 80+ average rookies from previous years bugger all have relied on big goals each week for there points.
+ r14 bye is aids.
+ 1 great score with 2 shit ones is not great going IMO.
I'd pass personally

All that and he is still better than Billings

Ronke scored 92 against the Cats by only kicking 2 goals so doesn't need to kick 7 goals every week for a good score.

I am moving Sicily back to strengthen my backline and trading Naughton > Ronke as I think he has more potential to score better than Doedee and Murray.

Fritsch and Ronke are probably the best 2 scoring forward rookies atm along with Waterman so I think they will be able to hold down F5 an F6 for a few weeks until they are plump enough to upgrade.

That's my thought process into the method of the madness which is my trading for this week! LOL!

Wrong Crouch SavDog lol

 

[Marlowe]

I remember when Brad Crouch and Jaeger O'Meara had the potential to tear the comp apart. **** injuries.

 

[Juddy88]

I would have thought a Calf was more than a 1 week injury ? ......the instance of re-doing a Calf was pretty high ?

Just saw on Gov

"We're training tomorrow. So if (McGovern) gets through the week I think he might be OK," Simpson told Channel Seven.

"We've got several players who will hopefully be available, but we've got to see them train first.

"At this stage, it's looking OK, but we won't know until Thursday."

 

[Deliverance]

Rookie-wise, other than those below, who could be in the frame?
(Cumming, Keeffe, Philipps, Ainsworth, Crossley)
Paul Ahern
Brayden Sier, Sam McLarty?
Will Brodie
Nathan Freeman
Charlie Constable(or already played 3?)
Not heaps in the pipeline, maybe.

Not exactly a rookie, but Ah Chee could slightly more expensive bench cover. Must be rated highly to break in to a winning team no?

Good thing I don’t have friends

 

[Dark Sharks]

Haha not owning Billdick is made all the more sweet by the fact people still DO own him.

Don't ever trade him kents, he brings so much laughter to this board

Sounds like Howe will be ok. Was only hamstring 'awareness'

Against North he kicked two points that where gettable and had a much lower tackle count (3) than the other games (7 v Cats , 10 v Hawks), so the 66 could have easily been higher had he kicked straight

 

[Werewolf]

Just as well I got rid of him the other day
