Ask Jay: Round 4

[Jay]

I'll drop it here too for your good self to answer Jay.

Parker + Cockatoo or one of Swallow/Hanners/Cotch/Griffen + Cripps.

I want Parker and Cripps, but that's not an option.

Gotta go with Cripps man, he probably represents the best value of all the mid rookies in terms of JS and scoring potential.

Of the 3 guns, I'd go Andy Swallow. Underpriced, has had a full pre-season and should return to his averages of the past 8)

I still can't decide. This is driving me insane.

I've had responses of Griffen, Hanners and now Spitta... and then there's my bias telling me to pick Cotch.  :'(

Honestly, if you think Cotch has good enough fitness to hit out a decent score tonight, I think its a very solid pick. If he's your gut feel, go him.

Hey Jay,

Have Newnes and Lumumba as D3 and D4 respectively. I'm thinking of trading one down to Bewick or Ibbotson and trading Bellchambers at R2 to Mumford or Goldstein.

Any advice on which way I should go with that?

J Selwood, M Hibberd, N Brown vs R Sloane, S Hurn, B Goodes
Goodes or brown would be D6
Which option do you suggest mate?

[Bully]

Cotch has had an interrupted preseason, don't forget the golden rules of supercoach.  8)

Are we trying to keep secret that he'll be better than GAJ this year?

Cotch is good but he's no son of god. In saying that I'm still mulling over Gaz myself, very tempted to replace him with Gray.

[Huttabito]

Hey Jayman,

$259k in bank... Driving me crazy where to spend it.

H.Shaw/Gibson > Jakcsh/MacMillan for D4 with Goodes/McIntosh
to allow
Rookie > Anyone Sloane downwards @ M5/6 depending.

or save Incase Belly @ R2 is a flop?

[Samsturmfels]

Hey Jay, are you putting McIntosh on the field (if not named sub)?

[Nige]

I think its a very solid pick, go him.

Hi Jayman, H Taylor, JPK, Bont or
C Pearce, Pendles, Bennell?

First one. Clancee Pearce is just too risky for mine, and I can't see all that much difference between JPK/Bont and Pendles/Bennell. Think you'll find they'll share similar averages come year end.

Would rather take less of a risk and start Harry Taylor. :)

Thanks for ur feedback mate. Good luck for this year!!

Ibbotson, Fyfe & Bont or
Taylor, Jelwood & Belly (F4)

Hey Jay,

Any advice on which way I should go with that?

I'd leave as is man. Those backs are popular for a reason, as is Bellchambers.

Bewick/Ibbo are too risky for mine.

[Jay]

J Selwood, M Hibberd, N Brown vs R Sloane, S Hurn, B Goodes
Goodes or brown would be D6
Which option do you suggest mate?

First option mate. Selwood and Hibberd are just much better picks than Sloaney and Hurn. Try and squeeze in Goodes though if you can  :-[

I'd save the cash in case any corrections are needed over the next couple of weeks. Jackcsh/Mcmillan don't scream out good picks to me.

Best of luck :)

Certainly mate :)

DO IT NIGEYBRAH! Can blame it on me if he fails, if that makes it any easier ;)

Taylor, Jelwood and Belly.

Don't trust Ibbotson or Bont.
