Malceski this week or James Kelly next week.

Kelly for Hamling would look alright but I'd be out of trades. Lol.

I currently have roughie on the bench in my fwds and an move Gray to mids for cover

RaisyDaisy

I've just had a look through all of the options, and these are the guys I think are worth bringing in for bench cover if possible

Duffield and Malceski 330k and Kelly will be about 325k next week

Scooter 355k

Pav 310k, and maybe Elliott or Walker or 340k

Would love to get Bartel or Boomer but cant see myself having enough money to get them.

Some real value down back. I'll be trying hard to get one of Duff, Eski or Kelly as D7, and I reckon we just need a DPP Mid/Fwd to cover those lines, although I'd love to get Pav at F7 for that dirt cheap price with his potential, but my rookies need a few more weeks to moo

There's talk that Brodie Smith may have turned the corner with his 51 after halftime last week.  Still, it would take a brave man to bring him in, even if the new coach has decided to utilise him in a more proactive role. At 326k he could be good value and a good pod. Of the other backs you mentioned, surely Ceski and Duff fill the bill, but I know from mucho experience that Kelly, at this stage of his career, is far too injury prone and is a real roll of the dice.

I'm keen on Duff from that list. Has the history, and was not in favor earlier but his past few weeks have seen him back in the 22 and doing well

Duff and Pav interest me, but I just don't know if I will be able to get them because all my bench rookies are not worth much :(

I wouldn't jump on Pav, just doesn't look threatening and the Dockers are going through some major struggles at the moment

And can someone shed any light on Zac Williams of the GWS? Last 3 scores of 93, 89 and 103 at $325k seems too good to be true

Do you mean rookies? Daniel is the pick of the bunch where that's concerned.

Bartel is probably the best investment if you want a quality swingman. Link him with Steele and you will be set I would think. Should drop to 450k next week.

Is bartel mid fwd? Thot only fwd

Only a forward mate.

Pav, no. I have him, regret it.
Duff, no also.
Eski a BIG yes.

3 sub affected games, before returning to the side in a new role. Averaging 18 touches and 6 marks in the three weeks, so may be there to stay

Duffield dropped, sorry RD.

Yep forward only, it's made me go a little cold on him although I'm tempted to wait a week and see how he goes.

Scratch Duffield off the list!
