Kedge to Hopper probably won't be a goer for me actually

Ive got 8 prem mids with Smith, Davis and Dunkley on bench

Smith ain't going anywhere, so do I trade Davis to Macpherson this week and net 84k or do I pass and do Davis to Hopper next week for an extra few K?

Reckon that might be better, because eventually I can downgrade Smith to Mathieson or Trengove at M10 and Hopper at M9

Yeah that's solid I reckon

as much as i rate him he is just a few weeks too early. Im upgrading downgrading and he is just too pricey. If he was a F/M i would be all over it but ill have a fully upgraded mid soon so he would only cover one line. Happy with the inferiior Petracca coveinrg both lines instead for now.

would rather pick up a 450k fallen F/M to cover the lines. Or just keep kerridge to do that.
Agree with Holz,   still got to bring in 3 premo mids,   Priddis this week,  Probably Gray and one of Ward/Pendles over next two weeks.    need one back and one fwd.   want dpp for my rooks down back.  Need space for Mathieson when he is available.     Got to upgrade one of Brown and Tippa for the cash.  Probably go for Brown.    Got davis, mcpherson, tracca and smith as my mid rookies for next couple of weeks.   So Hopper not likely to fit unless I sideways Davis.

Round 15 bye makes him the perfect upgrade to cover the loss of so many premos that week. I would much rather field Hopper than play any of the other rookies that are on the horizon.

What?

GWS have the bye Rd 15, so he will be on the pine with many other prems that round

I think he means trade him out that week to a R13, 14 premium bye player

Ah ok fair enough

With the amount of trades I've had to burn on injuries and corrections, If I grab Hopper I think I would be getting him with the intention of being M9 all year long

I know the dream is to have a fallen prem or DPP player at M9, but I've been smashed this year and can't see myself getting that luxury

Correct, round 15 has the potential to break many people. Can feasibly make up huge ground here. This year is a strange beast with such a late bye period and so many teams with a full quota of premiums.

Has to be considered. JS a concern. No doubt he can play but if you buy him, you'll want him to be playing in the bye rounds.

Wll be gresham to Hopper if I get him. Not exactly excited about that.

Ditto, he'd need to ton up again methinks.  Similar situation to Raisy, full midfield and not long on trades.

106 and now 74. Could make some very quick and serious money. Thoughts? I really want him.

A very handy player on your bench, I'm solely focused on the byes at this stage and Hopper is the perfect player to field and then upgrade in round 15.

My thoughts exactly, have heaps of rd 15 premos out but could upgrade hopper to cover that loss.

I have just reset the poll  ;D

Nope, to expensive for me and his incredible first game only netted him 106 SC i like more points from 32 touches 17 contested, 9 clearances,7 inside 50's 5 marks ect.
74 is what happens when he has a normal game.

Mathieson scoring 50's and 60's will make the same money as hopper scoring 70-90's

Whilst I agree that Mathieson will make the same amount of cash, is there any problem with having both?
