"Beastmode" is hardly impressing so far

Will probably grab him, but M10 that I'd never want to field

Hopper M9 Matho M10 MacPherson M11 doesn't fill me with a lot of confidence

What's the alternative though?

Hopper, Matho, Dunkley is what I'm looking at

Well Hartley is cooked, and had him on field thanks to Elliot Yeo, who keeps finding new ways to wreak havoc. Was expecting some shockers, but not missing games once a month with mystery injuries.

Anyway, Hartley is gone. Mathieson hasn't been amazing, but looks a decent prospect, and will hopefully get games over the byes. Guess that means keeping deadweight Menadue, but that doesn't seem to be doing any harm.

Is Collins looking like the next solid prospect though? Reasonable score today, and as far as I know he is basically last man standing in terms of tall defenders for Freo, which is always nice for rookies.

I will be likely be going Bennedy to Mathieson next week.
I brought in Collins early this week and happy at this early stage.
Menadue is doing no harm at the moment and his dpp link goes really well with Petracca so will probably keep him for a while yet as he's my F7/M9 cover with Kerridge at F6 and Wines at M8.

If say so but I'll wait until he's on the bubble and go from Byrne (who scored 112 last week) to Collins and pocket a cool 230 odd

Raiden

I'm hoping that Brand now returns next week for Spangher.

Raiden

Tucker 29 disposals for Peel yesterday, surely close to getting another game soon. Mitch Brown also returned & got through the match unscathed. (Could be a couple of Def rookie downgrade options coming up soon, also throw Collins into the mix)

Tucker in Barlow out?
I think brand will be getting another game next week now that Spanger is out injuried. Clarko likes playing 3 tall defenders so Gibbo is loose

For those who held on to him Josh Dunkley is absolutely killing it!

Highest scoring Dog approaching 1/2 time

Repaying the faith which is nice as this is simply unexpected cash generation and bench cover that I didn't expect to have :)

Pretty happy with him, solid cash generation coming up & will hold his spot after his performance so far.

Pretty annoyed I didn't listen to my own advice, listened to everyone else and reversed trades to bring in Hopper instead of Dunkley.  :( 

Grufflez

Kerridge > Wingard
Smith>Matho or Tippa>Collins

I don't really want to trade J.Smith this early as i feel he can reach 325k or more but it's better than losing mid dpp with menapoo.

I should have got Wingard last bloody week when i wanted him.

With Davis and Dunkley playing now, reckon I might hold onto Smith with those 2 and pass on Matho

Ironic that they were deadweights for about 10 rounds and now they might be our best scoring rookies
