2019 Rookies

[GoLions]

Here are mine that may cause concern with the B/E

Burgess B/E 27
Butters B/E 48
Gibbons B/e 16
Scott B/e 24
Setterfield B/e 22
Parker B/e 46
Petrucelle B/E 15

Butters to Stack obviously one and then depending on teams one of Burgess or Parker. Can afford to carry a few on bench as slow burn.

Why is trading Butters obvious? Been good until this game. He's the last one I'd be trading from that list tbh haha

So looking at the BE's I think Zac Clarke might be a pass

Won't make much cash, and was always a short term play as I'd expect him to be dropped once McKernan returns, or even earlier so the R3 cover doesn't mean much at all to me

O'Brien on the other hand is on track to increase by 120k over the next two games, but we need to get an update on Sauce and how much longer he will be out. If there was some sort of assurance that O"Brien would play the next 2 matches then he'd be worth the quick in and out cash grab possibly

Like I said earlier, Rotham looks very comfortable at the level and has slotted extremely well into our system, but he will likely make way for Jetta. I would only pick Rotham if he will be your D8 as I expect him to be in and out so could take a bit of time to moo. For those without Hore, he might be the better choice

Stack should be a nice cash cow, but I only have Scott, Atkins and Gibbons as options - Gibbons is the clear one to dump, but he's only 148k so I feel like using a trade and only profiting 46k is really poor. Atkins at 179k might be worth it?

Just on Stack, I know he has come back a very long way in terms of fitness so I wouldn't be surprised if he gets a rest shortly. Rotham if he retains his spot can sit at D7 for now. Already have Hore so no dramas there.

As for Atkins/Gibbons/Scott, still think they have cash to make so will let them moo a few more weeks.

My other trade will be Drew to Boak, simply have to get some of these spuds off the field.

Jacobs was close to playing last week so he'll most likely be back this week, which makes it an easy decision on whether to trade in O'Brien or not as he'll either be named alongside Jacobs which suggests they'll stick with him for at least the time being or do a straight swap of ruckman in which case he's obviously a no.

I'm able to trade out Burgess > Stack via Duursma and although it's only 70k profit, I still think it's worth the trade. Burgess looks unlikely to make his BE of 29 this week, so there's no point holding off on ditching him.
Not sure what my other trade will be though, as I'll only have 184k.

Yeah burgess needs to go but i cant justify making very little cash maybe later for me

Something that may be up for consideration with the Richmond rookies - Stack & Ross as well as Hore perhaps, is that Richmond and Melbourne play this Saturday, followed by a match 4 days later on Wednesday night.

I would've thought rookies, especially someone like Stack who has had fitness issues in the past, may find it difficult to back up for a second game 4 days later?

Very good point. Would be good to pay attention to whether the likes of Cotchin/Houli are fit or not. If it's likely they'll be ok for the ANZAC game, it'd make sense to swap Stack and Ross out for a rest. And if that happens, it might be hard for them to get back in...

I'd be surprised if Ross was rested, he's the only player on the list who is plug & play in that midfield role. Cotch has done a hammie, 3-4 weeks is the norm. Pretty comfortable that Ross will get at least 2 price rises & if he maintains his scoring should make at least 130k.

[kilbluff1985]

think Hately will come in for Ward this week was in the mix last week

[_wato]

Setterfield rubbed out for 2 wow.

[Mat0369]

How the hell did he get 2 weeks for that?

[Colty]

Sydney Stack JS? Seems a bit shaky after the weekend, Houli returning an issue?

[LaHug]

Sydney Stack JS? Seems a bit shaky after the weekend, Houli returning an issue?

I would think he'll be ok. Still played well and Dimma usually rewards the kids playing well. Remember, we had Houli and Short in the same team not that long ago!

[EA100]

Sydney Stack JS? Seems a bit shaky after the weekend, Houli returning an issue?

Had a few turnovers but over the course of two weeks, his mental ability to bounce back from mistakes is really good for a rookie. I don’t think there is any concern his JS.

[sammy123]

Whats shai boltons JS like? 75 points on the weekend priced at 145K. Could be a handy fwd downgrade
