Wow, Currie to ruck it alone against Goldy. Surely GC are nuts

Bully

Some very juicy downgrade options in Tucker & Petracca making their debuts, things are looking up. All round good week with Ruggles holding his spot and Hewitt back in town. Traded out McCarthy but will make more on Ruggles so no harm done.

Ringo

Grimley and Cox on extended benches and will make it difficult to replace if Martin does not play as Monday teams will not be finalised till Saturday,

Wow,  xmas,    McCarthy, Paps and Hewett playing,  Grimley named for Essendon, S Martin named.     Outcome better than I could have hoped.      Milera to DBJ and look at another downgrade.   May go to Petracca since he has been named and likely to score better than other options.

Tucker & Petracca on extended benches might not play yet

Anyone considering holding Pap? Be 62 and had a horrible game only to hold his spot in the team. That instills a lot of confidence. Know what he is capable of. Got Lions next week too

Currie one out against Goldy,  :o No Nicholls No Brooksby  :o CAPTAIN GOLDY
Well, depends whether you consider the 203cm inclusion of Peter Wright to be a ruckman or not ;)

Got a feeling Kennedy is in some trouble too, Petracca won't make the cut but will be in the frame if Garlett fails a fitness test (quoting Josh Mahoney here).

Why oh why did we name Cam O'Shea...

Papley holding his spot is good enough reason for me to hold here. Brizzy, Essendon, Richmond their three games after this, he'll pass 300k in price imo.

Yep, just read above my quote, got Essendon and Richmond after that. I would hold and take a risk on him playing 2 or 3 of those next 3 games as well.

Davis out means I have no mid cover (Davis, Dunkley and Gresham). :-[ One may have to go instead of Papley this week. I could bring in Petrecca a week early, but I think i need two of the defense rooks for cash generation.

I'm in the same boat as you, no mid cover with Crouch, Dunkley & Davis on the pine.

Yep, Wright will almost certainly ruck a bit (dat baptism of fire doe), no way Currie's gonna battle with Goldy the whole game. I'm still really surprised they dropped Nicholls though, seems odd.

I'm holding, and dumping Milera instead. If Paps drops a few K this week so what. Better potential than Milera

Currie is a good ruck and has probably the most experience of rucking up against goldy then anyone in the afl.

Cox named at FF, there goes my loophole.

RaisyDaisy

Exactly Holz

Don't go writing off Currie guys

_wato

Ben Ken be 56 and 57 avg last two games. Petracca after his spot for sure.

Gives me $60k more cash to use over Pap. Done for me

Rusty00

Blicavs playing in the back pocket this week, that's going to hurt his scoring :P
