The Playing Rookies Thread 2017 Edition

I said I wasn't even considering Bolton, but I've decided to hold SPP and upgrade him to Rocky next week, so am now thinking seeing as I have spare trade should I use that and trade Pickett to Bolton?

Need to maintain DPP so won't get cousins this week. Pickett is stuffed, and at least Bolton held his spot and should make a little

The fact that Butler comes back and Bolton stays is a good sign. Thinking of locking him in.

Rich dropped a tall to have 4 smalls in the fwd line. Jack is the only tall. We tried this against adel and got thumped. this happens again I'm scared Bolton may be the one to make way... how can u have a 1 tall fwd line???

The dogs do it regularly with good results.
We just don't have a good enough 2nd tall and god knows when Griffiths will be back so I don't mind it. The only thing that hurts is when Grigg has to try and ruck against Goldstein or Brown.

Bolton a lock for me. Only need him to play this week and round 13 and I'm happy

Maybe you want Ty back?

I liked the look of him last night. Had a crack! Would've been in there top half better players. Only 19yo would have to get games into him now!!

Not a must, but if you've got a rookie that needs to be cashed in then Cousin's at 102k is a pretty nice prospect

[tkringle]

Was planning on doing SPP to Rocky next week but SPP has another nice little cash jump coming after tonight

Thanks for the reminder,  only dropped him because I can now get Bolton and  Cousins for cash generation.  Still enable me to bring in Tom Lynch GCS so a nice 140 from Tom will make me feel better

I can field 18 this week so going to hold off on Lynch till next week to compete my forward line. Poor record against the weagles and a 155 BE means he should hopefully drop another ~30K and be ~$430K next week

Any of the rookies would be worthy of culling as it should yield 100k+. Parsons aint doing much so I'd be happy to take the money and run.

Will probably cull Myers for a quick cash grab

Based on projections would be 115k, reckon that's definitely in the trade zone.

If it allows me to bring in a top end mid as my final upgrade then its definitely worth it!

The only issue I have with Cousins is how many players I'll have out round 13 already!

Otherwise he's looking like an excellent option if you need a midfield rookie

Meyers to Cousins is neutral.

Plus both aren't DPP so it doesn't impact your structure.
Myers will be around 220k after this round and will be a slow burn up into the 250K+ mark, trading him out next week for 110k in the bank is worth it.

[RaisyDaisy]

Myers to Cousins should give me the funds to turn SPP (but I'll try and hold him and use someone else) to Rocky
