So what are people doing? Now confirmed out but almost 100% to start next week.

As I see it, you can take a rookie score for a week & then have a perma captain whose ownership will be under 20%.

Not sure 60 points is worth a trade either, so bringing in Jelwood or Gaz would need to be a long term position.

Gut says hold but that may change if the rookie score is shocking. Could even put the E on Banfield & get two bites of the cherry with Holman playing straight after.
Not starting him had a fair time off 3 weeks by then could have a slower start to season , take a risk he will drop a bit in price

Not starting him last year was a POD for me ... guess I can't repeat that now.

60 points may not be worth a trade but how about 120? Could very easily end up being 2 weeks

Billings had the same injury and didn't miss a beat. Danger's last score against the Hawks was 141. He then plays the Eagles and also scored 141. Saints after that (120) & Power (163). Risky waiting for drop that my never come.

Yep there's certainly risk attached, you'd hope 20 days would be enough although that can blow out to four weeks.

Koop

Yeah not sure what to do here. Coffield being named would solve so many cash issues because right now I need that 100k between Danger and someone else to make a team I'm comfortable with haha.

Holz

no chance im sitting 750k on the pine, the only way i would do it  is if banfield comes out and puts up a big score as emergency. but by then Zorko or Crouch who are my danger replacements would have played.

abit of uncertainy surrounding the cats too with ablett in, i dont feel the gap in danger versus dmart and ticthell is enough to warrant him missing 1 game possibly 2 and coming in underdone.

i have JOM and armitage in the squad so im ready to bring in danger early if required.

your basically dammed if you do dammed if you dont with danger.

i used the cash to upgrade waterman to christenson so i just need Christo Crouch + 40 points to beat Danger Waterman in the first 7 weeks.

Could say the same thing about Dusty  :D

AaronKirk

I've taken Danger out of my side.

Used the cash to go Danger, Venables, Keeffe to Ablett, Cyril (as F5) and Byrne.

Waiting on rookies to finalise my side now.

GoSaints3

I’m thinking to sit him on the pine and cop the ~60 point loss by fielding a rookie. You should more than make that up in a few weeks of Danger. Saying that however the team looks much stronger across the other lines without Danger

RaisyDaisy

Need to see full teams first as that will show all options, and then I can make a clear decision on what to do with Danger (and the rest of my side)

For the time being, I'll just plonk Garlett on the mid bench (without the E) and then use the next 24 hours to figure out the other 29 spots




Holz

basically 135 is hard to keep up for anyone even danger, doing that at not 100% with a new superstar in the squad even harder.

the scary thing is danger could do it.

but at the same time crouch could easily match danger in the first 7 rounds with a 40 point lead. all he has to do is get within 7 of him for the next 6 rounds totally possible. Then add in the cash your using to bump up the average elsewhere by 10 then crouch just needs to get within 16. Sounding easier.


RaisyDaisy

Pretty certain I'll just start Ablett, and then as soon as he misses a game , make the switch to Danger

Reckon Ablett will come out firing and he is the only player in the comp who has the ability to go 125+ other than Danger (Excluding Fyfe that we all have anyway)

Have posted numerous stats on Dusty, first six rounds he's running at about 50% with century conversion.

Gaz certainly a viable C option too. Reckon it will all come down to Banfield, 75+ and I hold.
