So torn on what to do with my bench rookies since teams have been named and now have a few not playing... do I keep players like Gould, McHenry (Ade) ,  Robertson & Curtis Taylor (if not named in final squad) incase they are named next week or do I fill there spots with players like McInerney (syd), Ben Davis, Billy Frampton who have all been named but might not last the 2 week minimum till price change plus probably don’t score great?

I'm going to start the rookies who are named in the final 22, and see what happens.

It may seem like a few of them have low JS, but we aren't their coaches. Who knows, McInerney might come out and have 30 disposals and ton up. Or another player could get injured, strengthening his JS.

With extra trades up our sleeves, trade hard early, get the rookies right and take advantage of price changes after 2 weeks.

Just read the article on Nic Nat and with the change in quarters that Bailey Williams might have a greater chance for a gig.
Also a couple of weeks of favorable loophole excuse.
i didnt see he him play for his marsh 70 score.
happy for thoughts
keep healthy

How confident are we that Brown can hold his spot?
How confident are we that BJ Williams is in next week?

I really don't want to go for McAsey but there mightn't be a choice in the matter...

Starcevich in, Taylor in. Robertson Out.

Robertson and Williams out is such as pain!

Ingram

Max King or Bedford roll the dice?

Decent JS Vs potential good scorer? Bedford got 45ish from 32% TOG.

Thoughts on Mcasey scoring ability, reckon he’s gonna be worth the price tag?

doubt it, dont know much about him but im gonna pick him anyway cause there arent any other backline rookies available

Crap. Not sure if i should replace BJ Williams and Robertson or just keep them hoping they play next week..

Locinator

food for thought, if we go a tyler brown/mcinerney with starcevich down back, we have the option to trade brown/mcinerney down after one price rise to either williams or robertson if one gets named round 2.

Of course this relies on tyler brown getting a price rise before treloar comes back.
