Rookie discussions and when to cash

[Ricochet]

so glad i avoided Hopper

was more unlikely he wouldn't make enough cash then he would

Yep same man. Always try and stay away from expensive rooks

He scored 77 last week whereas Dunkley scored 33, this was reason enough to pick him. Most picked him with the byes in mind.

Lions will be debuting another this week in Matthew "Hammer" Hammelmann.  He has a Def/Fwd DPP similar to Hipwood but has been confirmed to start in defence.

Anyone know what his JS is like? could be a useful DPP player

Eh, if he puts another decent score in this week and then maybe 1-2 more after the byes I'm calling it a win

Same, very pleased with Hopper. I've had him on the bench all bar the first week I had him, and when I really needed a good score (byes last week) he performs. W. Another 70+ and I'd be pretty stoked. Got him for the bye scores.

I'm taking a look at him too.

If he's come straight in for Harwood he could cement himself a spot in the best 22.. But Cutler will also be out this week with a hammy. Not sure if both Hammer and Cutler would play together?

Anyone trading in Mathieson this week? I know his got the bye next week which i'm not fussed about, just worried about his long term JS for the remainder of the year.

A Tippa->Hammer trade could be well worth in the coming weeks.

I'm considering it. I need to grab two of Phillips, Reid and Matho. Can't decide which ones. Or I could just grab Reid or Matho and hope Menadue beats his BE and get Phillips next week? Help! :o

Considering Reid got dropped, Phillips and Matho.

Well then...

This is worth discussing though. How many expensive draftees actually make decent coin? Heeney and Brayshaw weren't exactly great in the 1st half of their years

I did in the end, even though he has the bye next week.

With the injuries Brisbane has you'd think they'd give him a decent run. I also have Jansen on the bench, so surely one of those two will play each week.

Ah shower! So he did. :-\ my bad!

[Raiden]

Yeah i might trade out Dunkley for Mathieson, i would think Dunks will more then likely be dropped anyway after the bye with the return of Bulldog player's, i also was going to grab Reid instead however he was omitted.

I'm fielding Menadue "The spud" this week in the hope he can at least achieve his BE or not leak to much cash, then if Phillips hold's his spot & is named next week then i will make the trade.

I have decided to do the exact same thing. Cmon Menadue, redeem yourself with an eighty!
