Extra Cash $$$

[The Bomber]

Anyone going to go into the season with serious cash in their hands??? i mean like 100k or more...I am contemplating this idea due to the 1-0-3 ruck...

Atm i have broughton, if i downgrade him to waters (say i lose 10-20 point avg) but get over $110k in the bank...

If the rookie ruck fails at least i have some cash on hand for a quick upgrade and fix my rucks...if the ruck works well then you have extra cash for your first upgrade or able to upgrade waters again to a more premium...

on the downside you lose a trade...

thoughts???

the 3 rookie ruck strategy will fail if you don't spend the extra cash

I'm looking at only using $9 million & leaving $1million in bank.
Structure is;
D 4-0-5
M 3-0-5
R 1-0-3
F 4-1-4

9 rookies on field.
Aiming for league win.
Leaving a $1 million in bank will enable me to trade out cash cows at their peak & pick up who ever I like. I save trades this way as well, don't need to upgrade / downgrade using 2 trades.
Am I crazy or would it be risk = reward?

You can save yourself 2 trades by spending the cash and getting 2 prems in now don't know how competitive your league is but you could find yourself in a big hole by the byes and be lucky to make finals

Im thinking of keeping around 150-200k, will come in pretty handy...

Oh, did they change the rules? Can you earn interest on your cash now?  ::)

Agreed, three rookie rucks are popular for a reason as they should all see some serious game time and we are know doubt hoping one becomes this years "Zac Smith"..

If you are going with the three rookie policy then get your premiums on the other lines now to save trades later..

Then use the cash made from the rookies to get your 2nd premium ruck later.

That's my plan and I'm sticking to it. Good luck 8)
