lloyd may be a real sound option with both Comiglio and Devon Smith out. Only concern would be Lids returning.

I'm thinking if I'm going to grab a R13 mid rookie he is the guy. I might hold off on Myers and potentially double downgrade next week.

Hawka

Ive noticed whenever the Roos name a team for a sunday Pruess is never in the 25 on Thursday night
but he always finds a way to slip into the emg list come friday

I'm thinking Lloyd over Myers now.  Would probably take Myers if the circumstance was right.

But the extra cash allows to make only one trade next week to bring in the premo I want and avoids the conundrum of finding a Marchbank downgrade option - at least for a couple more weeks.

I think Myers JS is very solid.  I also think Lloyd will get a solid run. 

With that being said, if O'Connor somehow kills it tonight I will go with Myers and downgrade Marchbank to him next week.

Reckon O'Conner keeps his spot, could be a viable downgrade next week.

I'd rather give him a 3rd game to see if he can score 40+ at the very least :P

28 and 36 (pre-scaling) doesn't excite me all that much. Lloyd 54 last week I'm fairly keen on, same with Stewart 91 up forward although a bit pricey.

Not a rookie, but Scooter at 281K could be cheap M9 cover. Great bye too

He will be on the bubble R11 so that's the time to grab him if he plays.

Barrett to Scooter would be just about a straight swap too. And there's Gray, will be 450k after next match.

If people are struggling to field a team round 11 then Scooter could be a quick fix. Will wait and see, personally looking at a SPP to Gray trade myself, should only cost an extra 130k.

I'm considering Gray, but I'd be hoping he starts playing in the guts more and actually scores well enough for the M8 position aha. If he continues staying forward a lot then he'll remain cheap and can be picked up much later on anyway I guess.

91% TOG for Parsons tonight is a big deal.  Like the signs that he'll get a bit more of a run in this team.

Hopefully 200% TOG next week for him to crack out a good score  ;D
