Smedts vs Adams vs Pfieffer

Will Smedts get enough games? vs Adams named ahead of Miles + Tyson after playing well in the twos vs Is he good enough for Ports 21?

Ledger has to go. Liking Adams even though he hasn't played named on the field ahead of others( WHE, Miles, Tyson, Wilson) Could wait a week for him but worried D.Smith may be sub and have to play him on field unless I trade Ledger. Smedts would have to be bought now.

Already have JMac and Treloar. What are others doing with Ledger?

One worth a look and it is my bias coming out is Jack Crisp - Very Rookie priced $94k Scored 74 SC points last saturday night and found the ball and looked good. Named in the Team again this week and if he scores another 74 will be handy.

Don't trade him. He'll get a game soon. He is an emergency this week.

When? That's what I say to myself every week. He is emergency most weeks isn't he? I haven't used any trades yet and it doesn't look like he'll play anytime soon. Every week he sits on the bench is a week he isn't making money. I should have traded him for Greene but I thought "no he'll play,just be patient" Well my patience has run out. And the only way he'll run out is in a Green Vest.

Grab Pfieffer next week.  Bye situation is too hard to ignore.  IMO, wouldn't go out of your way to grab the other picks...

Ok, lets put it this way.. I bet you have 5-7 GWS players, so come Rd 11 you need to have traded them out, to only have 8 players missing for Rd 11, otherwise you'll have donuts... If you keep using your trades now, then you'll use 6 in Rd 12 and Rd 13, ad have like <6 left after Rd 13.

Ledger's bye is Rd 13, for me that's an advantage. He was named in 2 of the previous 3 weeks he's missed, but has pulled out at the last minute. I'm not sure if he was named as EMG last week, but I see him getting a game soon. If he doesn't get named next week, maybe do as CS stated and get in Pfeiffer or Neale re the bye situation.

You have to start looking at the byes now. The more GWS players you get in now, the more likely you'll be in trouble come Rd 11.

I'm not as optimistic about Ledger  ;D

I had the same issue, in the end traded out clay smith instead of ledger cause smith hasn't been picked for 2 weeks. He will be safe for one more week.

Don't forget ledger had a really low score for the 1 game he had which will take 3 more games to wipe off if not more, so he need to have played 4+ games with solid scores in all of them to actually make good cash.
