Player X v Player Y

[My Chumps]

Option 1: JPK (110) + Zac Jones (80) + 45k (190 total pts)
Option 2: Titch (105-110)+ Zac Jones + 97k (185-195 pts)
Option 3: Clayton Oliver (90-100) + heath shaw (100-105) + 10k (190-205)
Option 4: Clayton Oliver + Zac Jones + 290k (170 pts)

In brackets is what i believe they might average this year. I know most will probably say option 1, 2 or 3 but I really rate Oliver this year. Considering this I may only be 30 pts down in points but what it does do is open up the opportunity for me to grab the right corrective trades.  El.  Bowes, JPK or Titch etc... depending on who is performing better. Cheers in anticipation!

Option 1, don't like the Oliver pick personally, and prefer JPK over Tmitch

Arguably BOG - 36 possies, 14 contested, 9 clearances and 8 tackes and how many SC points?? - that's right 109!!! what a load of BS!!! Yes I know he had 9 kicks and 27 handballs which doesn't help his cause but I'll say again...THIS KID'S THE NEXT PRIDDIS! haha..

Haha, jacked score. I'm with ya though, definitely think he'll be Melbourne's best mid out of their up-and-coming brigade. Not sure about this season though.

Nah I do, but at M9, If Otten gets dropped, I'll make a couple of trades so I can do this. Don't know what I was thinking by playing SPP at m9.

can trade this week.  Expecting otten and simpkin to get dropped.

I have Marchbank, Hampton, Otten, Stewart and Hibberd and have to start 3 of them.

I'd be surprised if Simpkin got dropped tbh. Think he'll get another crack at things. Ideally you'd wanna hold this week to see who is the better choice from Hannan and Butler.

7400 short of being able to trade Otten to McGrath.   Possibility Hibberd and Otten both out.  Can only upgrade to McGrath by moving on Simpkin and Otten.   Can live with one non playing rookie as a loophole but not both.
Any ideas?

Higgins v Murphy

Houston + Murphy

Roughead + SPP

Higgins v Murphy

murphy 1000%

Higgins was lucky to be scaled up so much in rd 1...his dt:sc ratio was crazy...

It's because he uses the ball so well. He had 14 contested and 11 clearances Round 1, and his first quarter score wasn't added for the majority of the game until the end. So got scaled accordingly. And today, well he killed it. It's about what you consider more influential to your team.. IMO Higgins a better chance at top 6 v Murphy top 8 in their respective possies.

A forward averaging 120 or a mid averaging 134... what's more important?

Higgins v Murphy

This is also what I'm deciding between for trading out Ryder..
