Keays continues to crush the NEAFL

Surely he gets a run very soon, and if I am desperate for a mid downgrade target in the next 2-3 weeks I might even just grab him regardless

wonder if Dunkley might come back in with so many injuries for the Dogs
Hope so he is sitting on my mid bench as I did not want to waste a trade by getting rid of him.  Has a negative B/e of 25 when named for third game and predicted to rise $32k

I also want this guy back sooner rather then later.

Papley to DBJ via brown locked.

Is it worth going mena to ruggles via adams, thus losing all def/fwd link?

Or should i use that money to upgrade barlow ?

Only issue with this is expecting Dayne Beams back in 2/3 weeks so opportunities for him will be limited.  Killing it in NEAFL I know and will be first up if we get injuries but looking at the team we have at the moment hard to see who he replaces.  Having difficulty working out who goes for Beams.  Also Mattheson is getting close to a return from fractured jaw and he was selected over Keays originally. Just an issue with our abundance of mids.

One worth keeping an eye on though could be Hipwood who is also performing well in NEAFL and with our injuries in defence he could get a call up.

Possibly, but there's already enough def rookies!

Need some mids and fwds!

I wouldn't be too annoyed if Broad came in. 2 weeks time is good for a downgrade for one f the defenders, or if not a DPP switch from defence.

kilbluff1985

could do some tricky stuff like subbing players around to get in more rookie defenders

just as example

Dunkley out
sub Bennedy to mids
sub Brown to forwards
get Broad in

yeah currently going paps>DBJ.

then next week bennedy to premo

I get the feeling Bennedy will chime in with a 90+ score against a hapless Richmond unit to boost the cash flow once more.

Yeah I'm actually not worried about his BE. I reckon I could hold onto Bennedy for a while because his JS is solid and he can score well. Plenty of rookies I'd dump before him

Papley B/e 62
Milera B/E 61
Bennedy B/E 56
Menadue B/e 34
Davis B/e 17

So who is on the bubble we can down grade to:
Darcy Byrne Jones on the bubble this week with a negative B/e 85 estimated price rise $73k
Ciaran Byrne on the bubble this week with a negative B/e 61 estimated price rise $48k
Tom Ruggles on the bubble this week with a negative B/e 57 estimated price rise $51k
Josh Wagner on the bubble this week with a negative B/e 51 estimated price rise $50k

Unfortunately noting on offer in the forward or mid lines.
All very true. I've weighed up whether to double downgrade and switch McD-T & Adams fwd to get the Byrne boys as I have Paps and Milera but it doesn't seem worth it as they've made bugger all. Will probably just get Ruggles this week as at 102k I will have enough to get Zerrett. Tom Lee might be my other defensive boy on the bubble in two weeks....played his first game for the season v Hawks and scored 61pts... is a great kick and mark, think he could play the remainder of the year, all going well.

I am in the exact same frame of mind as to whether a double rookie downgrade is actually worth it yet.
Thus far i am going Milera>Byrne-Jones & Barlow>Zerrett, 2 rookie downgrades for 200k seems unworthy,
and since i can't decide between Byrne & Ruggles as the 2nd option i may just pass on these guys.

Slightly worried that Ruggles will get a lot of games and make good cash in the long run.  :-\
