Round 5 Team Announcements

Why do you guys think Bennedy could lose his spot? Stop focussing on just his SC scores - he's been one of their best players this year

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

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, 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.

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

^ This is all I was thinking when named.  Worth the VC though on Goldy fo sho!

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

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

Do we risk on field though or hold as emergency. Got to field one of Paps, McCarthy or Walla/Brown depending who I move forward for Milera

Exactly, 24 possessions and goal last week, no way he gets dropped.

Yep I agree RD,why drop someone who has been one of their best players so far this season

Tippa on field and Papley on bench with E. I can actually loop Papley here too

Agreed, he was very good last weekend against the Pies.
IMO it's possible Petracca could look to (permenantly) edge out Oliver, plus there's still Hunt and Wagner, who do play different roles, but could also lose their spots.

Ben Kennedy would be near on leading their best and fairest to this point. If not Gawn might be edging him out.

He is a bloody lock in that side week in week out.

Very possible, Oliver looks to be tiring already, not surprised as his tank needs some work. Think he will be managed much like Brayshaw last season.

[kilbluff1985]

Hunt, ANB, Petracca/Garlett most likely outs

[_wato]

Not talking about losing his spot at all. I just made a general observation.

Ha aint gonna make cash fast. 24 touches and a goal for 64 points? Pathetic

Scored 50 the week before too. Rather Pap who has an extra $60k to make over Kennedy and his JS looks solid. Didn't get dropped after an absolute howler

[RoughRed]

Even if Martin can't go, I will have Currie for coverage hopefully. I'm down 5 trades already on the season in both comps, I have Martin in DT so there is a bit of a worry there, thankfully I kept Currie on the bench. Currie might also be the answer in terms of ruck coverage if he gets a decent run. Ideal scenario this week for me in terms of fantasy

Hewett in
McCarthy in
Paps out
Ruggles holds his spot

and we are good to go. All my other rookies either have negative or breakevens lower then their average. Menadue and Kennedy will be the two I look at next week.

Was getting all excited then realised it was just your wish list  :P

3 out of 4 ... not bad

I'm hoping Bennedy is one of the last rookies I upgrade. Hoping to get another month out of him while I upgrade elsewhere

I'll move on Mills before him

I've got Petracca too, so if he does get named to play I am leave Tippa at D6 and field Petracca at F6 - beautiful

If not, tippa to F6 and Ruggles or Byrne on field, or take Papley score who I'll loophole

[_wato]

Who to get rid of then? Mills be 20 BenKen be 56.

Thinking BenKen. And mills has looked good and finally scored well on the weekend.
