Bullet dodged. :)

Laid back to back 70's and probably the worst effort from a premium I've ever had to endure watching.

Rage trade highly likely.

With Crouch out his TOG went up to the mid 70's, but his 2nd quarter where he spent most of it on the pine and his last quarter where he just didn't get near it were huge disappointments.

Something NQR with Laird this year, I feel he's M8 at best. Dawson looks a different player with Crouch out of the side, I hope the Crows keep him sidelined. I'll look at Dawson this week, the price very tempting, just so long as Crouch isn't playing.

Round 6: Score 1920 , 39,515 round rank , and back out to 10,089 overall.

You cannot view this attachment.

Probably have to avoid rage trades and looking at:

Campbell to Garcia.

Sharp to Walsh.

Would skip the first trade but need the money for Walsh.

The rage trade version would be as follows:

Laird to Walsh

Sharp to Zorko or Adams.

Williams had the achillies soreness and was subbed out, he had the torn achillies a couple years ago so I worry it will mean some time on the sideline. I think he has to go this week and I would hold Sharp.

You're in a good spot to grab Tom Stewart in a few weeks on the cheap. He would be the guy I target as an upgrade in that position down back.

I feel you on wanting to dump Laird after the last fortnight.

arbel · April 22, 2024, 02:21:56 PM

Laird bad 2 weeks but I wouldn't rage him yet. If he has another you could straight swap for Adams next week if needed. Williams should be your first port of call. With the injury and he could be out for a bit.

Colliwobblers · April 22, 2024, 08:07:00 PM

Williams might be ok, but may not
Horne Frances also went off with a hammy that may be ok maybe not.

Maybe this might work:

Williams to Walsh
Horne Frances to Merret
Sharo to Garcia

Just leaves one spot for Trac Gulden or other mid.

Could save $100k and jump on Dawson but can't trust that when crouch comes back?

Bully · April 22, 2024, 08:21:55 PM

Those are definitely power moves, Merrett's draw opens up a bit too, I would say this is a good time if you can afford it.

Dawson is still a wait and see, the Crouch effect unresolved, minus Crouch and I would be considering but with Crouch I am struggling to see Dawson breaking through the 120 barrier. That would be my cue for this week, any score VC worthy and he comes into the frame.

Colliwobblers · April 22, 2024, 08:42:14 PM

I'm tempted by Bowes down back also, which would allow me to keep Horne Frances if fit and wait on Merret/other mid.

Agree Dawson like Macrae we just can't count on.

Bowes won't be top 6 in my opinion, he's in that awkward price range where he makes money but probably settles in around 500k. For an extra 120k I would grab Sicily, I think for 538k you have D6 covered at the very worst.

Like it a lot!

Colliwobblers · April 22, 2024, 09:51:13 PM

Think your right about Bowes Bully might have been a great get a week or two ago, pick 10, 26YO maybe the Geelong system has clicked for him and away he goes, and maybe also not and exactly as you say, another double trade $100max stepping stone I can no longer afford.

watched the port presser which counts for little but ken said cramp not hammy for Horne Frances. Kens more honest than most :)

tempting as Merrett is this week maybe I just grab Walsh and Garcia.

Keeps Horne Frances because SURELY he reaches the level and finally STAYS at the level.... surely.... sigh.

Then next week with my second last boost can do:

D'Ambrosio to Stewart/Sicily/Whitfield (unless a lot goes right or wrong Houston out of reach sadly).
+
Meek to English
+
Darcy to a rook. (R Garcia / MCaulifffe)

And be broke :)

Mat0369 · April 22, 2024, 11:36:06 PM

I'd do the Walsh and Merrrett upgrades. That midfield will look pretty damn good. If you don't go Merrett, I would look at one of Rowell or Neale at a slight discount. Rowell has been on another level and Neale has been ticking along even with the bum ankle.

I'd Love Rowell, but after the first two trades Williams to Walsh and Sharp to Garcia it only leaves me $531k when trading D'Ambrosio out, so can't reach a second mid this round unless I ditch Horne Frances.
