What do you feel is better. Going for league. Current mid premium are abllett swan Boyd Thompson where forwards are franklin white cross Robinson and beams.

Everyone up top has sidebottom in the league where as only half have pendels

Who do you see as more reliable to play all through the byes out of Shiel and Treloar? Will be trading one to Robbo this week and keeping the other.

Sheedy loves shiel and treloar hasn't had his rest yet (although he had a delayed start)

If I had to put money on it, I'd choose shiel to play through all the bye rounds and treloar a chance to miss one of them.

who knows with GWS, both look pretty safe to be honest its all going to come down to luck with both of them missing i think only one game. Im sure both will be rested at least once in the next 5 matches you just cant tell when. The GWS resting isnt making sense either with guys rested in winabble games. I would say shiel is marginablly safer, but i would drop him as trealor has more money to make and trealor has DPP which could help in the byes.

Where are you coming? If you are in the top 8, then option number 2 and if you are struggling, then option 1 and hope he outscores sidebum.

if league Pendles all the way, im not sure if sidey can keep up his form so i think he is overvalued whereas pendles is slighty undervalued. I can see Pendles averaging 10+ more than Sidebottom so for the bit extra worth going him, especially if he is more unique.

Swan going out makes things a little interesting, Pendles did alright when swanny was out last year so shouldnt be too bad and he normally gets some tag anyway, not sure if people will tag sidey so thats maybee another plus for pendles.

Zorko in for A.Hall or C.Smith?

Was going to be A.Hall but... C.Smith is an emergency. His BE is 26, and he's likely to be a sub when he comes back in, meaning small price gains. A.Hall has a BE of -35, which means he's making money IF he plays again. The problem is... that seems quite unlikely judging by a lot of posts on these forums. He's an emergency this week though, so there may be some hope. However there's no point keeping someone that definitely won't play vs someone that's likely to be rotated back in.

Thoughts?

Also 2nd question. Looking at a forward upgrade.
I have: Franklin, Robinson, Sidebottom, Zaharakis, Lewis, Porplyzia, Smith, (Adams, Hall).

Who should I get?
Was thinking about Danger, but it might be too late for that train, he's in so many teams he's hardly unique.

You said it yourself in q1, it is a very hard decision. I see C.Smith coming back in, but as a sub, and there isn't much coin to be gained as that. I don't see hall coming in and being a sub. Where do you need an emg more? I think C.Smith to zorko to create a DPP link before byes may be helpful too.

Q2) So you want someone more unique? Maybe chapman? Does it matter about byes? Clancee Pearce is probably the most unique high scorer. Dustin martin if you are going for league and don't want people to gain on you. Also, don't forget Ryan O'Keefe!

Cant See Hall playing so would drop him for the forward upgrade you have alot of good options. Forget about how cheap danger was and just make the choice on how good he has been going this year at 450k  and a 99 average he is still good value if he can keep up his scores.  Dustin Martin at 40k cheaper represents probably the best value and he has a really nice draw coming up and he would be my pick, is a little risky but could pay off big. Cloke at 370k is perhaps the riskiest option and has been very average but is the biggest payoof it all dpends on how much risk your willing to take.

Wouldn't get danger if you can get pendles or sidebum.

I have changed my mind a little haha Pendles to come in, swan being out means you will be playing a mid down. Sidebum surely can't hold this form but I would get him in asap after pendles.

i agree always bringin in the best player possible thats why i said pendles, the only time not to is when a guy is really undervalued. For example im bringing in Stanton (best in the comp) and mitchell who is extremely good value

It's not exactly the cash that's an issue for Danger though, it was more looking for a more unique pick.
At the moment it's probably between Beams, Danger and Martin for me.

The other benefit of getting C.Smith out is DPP in my mids. I have none currently (Pendles, GAJ, Boyd, Thommo, Coniglio, Horsley, Magner, C.Smith). Do you think this is important for bye rounds or is it over-rated?
If I got rid of him now I'd want a downgrade for Hall soon though... any good forward rookies coming up soon?

i would say DPP is helpful bit its much more important having a balanced team .

Ahhh i forgot about beams!

I think DPP could be handy in a different way than people think. If no good forward rookies present themselves, you can trade a forward out, swtich zorko into forwards and trade in a mid. VERY HANDY and no one knows what will happen during the bye rounds.

Forwards on my watch list are walsh and sexton (GC)...along with couch.

I don't think I will be getting any of them if there job security isn't high though, so I will be patient. Do not forget Saad, he has barely risen in price and scores low but his JS appears to be high.

Also... couch >:D haha

[Alka]

Good point on the DPP Spite. I think you've convinced me to go C.Smith -> Zorko. Hall can be culled a little later, it's not like I'll be missing out on much with Smith out.

I think Beams is probably the obvious choice, it's just that he's 100k more than all the others. I reconsidered Chapman early on suspecting he would be due for a few rests this season. Martin still has a few toughies, and hasn't really proven enough (he's had a tough start, but still only scored 64 vs Melbourne). Clancee is an interested prospect... cheap too, I might look into him a bit more. Do you think he'll be up there with his scoring all season? Even when Fyfe eventually returns?
