Ask Holzman Round 14

[Holz]

Sorry guys missed last week, was really busy but im back for round 14. There should hopefully be less problems this week with the MBRs over.

[Memphistopheles]

Hi Holz,

Need a second premium ruck to partner Cox.

Can't afford Maric at the moment but can afford anyone else.

Who do I get?

[Chelskiman]

With Taylor Adams out this week and Pendles/Zaha also on the sidelines, I'm forced to play either Gibson or Sexton.  Currently have Zorko in the mids but could swing him into the forward line and then play Gibson or I could keep Zorko there and swap Adams with Sexton and play Sexton instead.  Basically, who is going to score more this week, Gibson or Sexton?

Gday mate, already asked around on this one with no replies yet (only just posted them...)

According to this article McIntosh will be playing forward a bit more. Do you think Goldstein will be good for the rest of the season in the rucks now? Even with the return of Mcintosh, stating they dont want to play 2 rcuks alongside 3 key forwards?? Will Mcintosh be key forward in most games, or only against certain opposition???
Worth a bit more of a thought now for an upgrade Giles to Goldy

Your thoughts on bringing in Sam Gibson (NM), Job security etc.....
thanks,

P.S - or is waiting for Clifton (GWS) a better option ?

[KoopKicka]

Holz, what price will Carrots drop too? I desperately need it to be under 300k or I need to waste another of my 4 trades to get cash. :/

[Plastic Boy]

Griffin or Ryder for Giles?

Would probably have to go ryder, has been averaging mid 90s for the last 5.  Your other otpion is goldy but he has Hmac coming back into the squad. Reports are saying Hmac will come back a forward and if thats the case goldy is the better pick. I think Hmac will come back and ruck abit so ryder is the safer option.

Gibson if he avoids the vest should score wel.. First off i dont expect sexton to play so Gibson at this stage easy. Will see when team sheets come out

Yeah red the article already, Goldy needs to be in the ruck for his development, Hmac should and will come back mroe in the forward line than he was. I can see Hmac reducing his scorign slightly, but i have goldy and im very happy with him.

not sure if Clifton will come in number 1 and also unsire about his JS. If gibson is named this round pick him. Be warned of the vest though. He played well when he came on last game.

no chance of going under 300k unless he gets injured or something drastic happens. Should drop to 360k next round and than go up for from there.

[Holz]

Griffin or Ryder for Giles?

Ryder if you can afford him, both should average around the same with sandi out but when sandi is back griffin socres will go down or he will get dropped. I know its a while away but its worth  paying that little extra for ryder. Would suck if you have girfifn spudding it up during the DT finals.

I'm hoping $350k, that would be nice.  On a similar topic, what price do you think Darley will peak at?
