Vlastuin and Rampe interesting choices - stepping stones or keepers?

Too many mid-priced 90’s scorers here imo

Ive been watching Vlastuin closely the last few years...I nearly picked him last year
He was very influential in the finals series last year...I'm gambling on him increasing output.

Rampe should have a full pre season...Ill monitor closely...could be a sacrificial trade down to a cash cow on the bubble making an easy upgrade for an underperforming mid priced midfielder....gotta keep the options open for easy player movement in the 1st 4 rounds!
We have so many trades these days that allows me to set up this way

I have selected this team on the basis that each player can increase PPG compared to their price
If a player can average 100+ that was priced in the 90's...then Im more than happy with them to be keepers
I understand that not all of them will succeed but if I can jag maybe 3 into must haves, then thats a win for me
Those that dont increase output I dont expect to lose too much money, making for easy  upgrades to premiums like Dangerpants, Fyfe or Martin....hopefully I could get those premiums 50 - 100K less - every little bit helps...its very easy for them to drop in price...I dont want to put all my eggs into one basket so to speak....

Ive found the more options you have with trading, the easier the game is...whether it be by having a few mid pricers or by loading up on DPP

Last year I payed top dollar for many players that dropped in output Hannebery, Shaw, Mumford, Sloan....I paid mid 600's for them and they dropped to around 500K....that really hurt me...I dont want to do that again

Yeah Captain choices look very thin just strayed to far from the cookie cutter team to be successful but that's just my opinion  ;)

Ever since SC has been going I dont remeber swapping captains much during a season

Its usually always a lock...Ablett, Gawn, Swan, Pendles, Goldy....I think I got some good loopholes last year

Gawn can dominate...even Nic Nat at his best is an atheletic beast that can go forward and kick a few
Development of Bont....Cripps is capable of anything in that Carlton team...JoM if fit could be the best player in the game
I have no doubt Wines will be better again this year with a good team around him and another pre season...he is a beast

I am not concerned about Captain choices whatsoever..lock in Gawn...loophole my top 5 priced mids
I will have Danger, Fyfe & Martin (or whoever else dominates) in my team before the byes..Im happy to roll with Gawn until then
