fantastic preuss named. Now Goldy is more unique.

geez im tempted to have preuss R3 and drop Nank though.

Your seeing Goldie still scoring 120 with Preuss in the side Holz?

not 120

but i see 110+

Preuss will be used mainly as a forward then i see him being dropped when we have all our forwards back.

we still dont know if Ben Brown, Majak Daw etc.. are named or not. That changes things.

basically witts will disapoint and people say they will trade him out but they will have bigger issues to deal with and carry him all year. The benefit of the ultra premos are soo high thats why i have the best of the best mids and then rucks the second highest scoring postion.

Can see Goldy beating whatever forward premo people have by 10+

The big difference is there arent too many great rucks where as there are quite a few 90-100 forwards. You will have the oppurtunity to pick up a gunston, nroo, buddy type for 450k-500k at some point in the year.

people are all talking about they will let the dust settle and then see who the best ruck is and pick them. bad news on that is they will cost like 600k+ and thats tough to bring in. Its more of a case of focring that exact trade.

where as if gunston has a shocker and scores 40 then i let the oppurtunity come to me and pick him up for 450k.

If goldy and gawn both go 110+ you will want them if you  start sandi and witts you will struggle to bring them in.

this game is won and lost on trading not starting teams. Look at all the past winners they rarely have amazing starting teams. Goldy is about taking oppurtunities in trade value, which wins you the season.

I dont wont to have to deal with a complicated problem like witts i want to focus on improving my team as quick as possible. Just watch people will have witts till round 10+

Gotta disagree big time Holz.

I've played this game long enough. No way will I still have Witts after his bye let alone Round 10.

Good luck with Goldy being 0-6 and ticking around 100-105. Can't wait for Sandi to monster him.

If Witts is still in my team after the the round 9 bye it is because I've either been hospitalised, kidnapped or because he's scoring tons every week. 

And the timing for an upgrade doesn't haven't to be spot on anyway, I'll just swing Nank to R2 until the price is right. In any case, Gawn will probably outscore Goldy and he's the man I'd rather wait for.

oh yeah forgot about the bye, basically means you will have to move him on after 8 rounds.

Personally i like oppurtunities come to me rather then being forced to do so.

buy low is the most important thing for me.

Good luck to you as well. I look forward to round 6. Witts v Goldy. He went 125 on them last year.

if 100-105 is the downside to him then ill take it. He is priced at 108 so a 105 is fine by me.

Not saying he is a shocking pick but if he is putting up 75-80 then i dont see why you would move him on over all your over rookies. Unless you plan on having a fully upgraded team by round 9?

If you rate witts then you actually should plan on having him the longest of all your non premos. If you think he will go 80+ why would you trade him out?

It's more about getting Gawn on the cheap and if Spencer is named for a few rounds then that is entirely possible.

Money Shot

Nankilands with Preuss at cover and after he gets dropped after 4-5 rounds hopefully he has made 50k for me too downgrade him to my future captain Strndica.

Nankervis should go 85-90 which I'll take.
Sandi should go 100-105 but the risk is how long he will be scoring that much for before he gets injured.

Boyd/Vardy/Witts are all downgrade options for me at least.

Cue everyone scrambling to get Gawn into your teams.

I do not!!  :'( I need to find 200k at least.

Looking pretty certain it's just going to be Gawn on Saturday. Melbourne don't like the lack off forward pressure Spencer will give at Etihad. Looking likely Weideman will play.
