all ~450k.

just running through some possible plans and was considering upgrading treloar and having dustin as cover, or sidewaysing dustin and keeping treloar as cover +the 50k difference. might end up just leaving it be. might trade. a lot depends on whether or not franklin plays.

have 4 trades, 100k bank, in top 4 of all leagues.

could also move on sidebottom for a bit of extra expense.

current fwds: franklin, beams, goodes, danger, pav, martin, zorko (treloar, smedts)

i was thinking of doing a similar trade so dustin can be my bench cover but i was gonna go unique..  i voted fyfe.. im personally tossing up between him n sylvia

Fyfe would be my choice, closely followed by Stevie J. Both are in good form, will probably not be rested and should regularly score tons.

After watching the game on Friday night, it looked like Stevie J played on the ball the entire night, and I think this has been the case for the last few weeks, hence his scoring increase. if Geelongkeep playing him in the guts, which I think they will, I reckon there's a fair chance he won't drop below 100 for the rest of the year and after this week looks set to drop to like 450ish k. I'm seriously thinking of bringing him in for the porps instead of Beams as the extra cash could be very handy!

Anyone else able to comment on this?

Tex is playing some ordinary opposition, should get plenty of opportunities to kick some big bags ;D

fever

bump for a super-close poll.

will almost def be getting one this week to cover swan for the two weeks

If the extra 50k isnt an issue, definitely go Sidey IMO. Should be able to ton up on a regular basis for the rest of the season. If 450k is your limit, I agree with everyone else.. Stevie J will score well if the cats have him in the guts or on-ball as they did against the Hawks.  Nate 'The Knife' Fyfe would be my next suggestion.

I'm deciding between Fyfe and StevieJ. Stevie with a tougher run but a higher scoring ability while Fyfe has an easier run but is very injury prone..

Stevie J too, think he'll average 120 here on in. Fyfe next best, Chappy seems to be spending a lot of time deep forward which is making me nervous as a Chappy owner... Walker is a big risk of doing something stupid, whether off or on the field, Sidey is averaging <100 ppg post byes.

At the winning post Stevie J salutes the judge by just over two lengths, Fyfe runs on well to finish second and Sidebottom hangs on for third. Of the rest, Chapman was eased down on the line finished a couple of lengths off the placegetters and as mentioned earlier in the call, Walker did not complete the course after bucking the jockey half way down the straight.

fwiw the 50k is not an issue.

the only one i've ruled out atm is chappy. the others i'm flip-flopping all over the place.

fever

also for those on sidey does it affect ur opinion at all that i have heater, pendles, swan and beams already?

Tippet will probs be back this week fever, how much of a gambling man are you? Haha. Could explode with an easy run home as long as he stays conscious?

Sideys scoring has slowed lately, but with swan being out for two it could pick up again.

From my thread and what I've been reading, I've come to the conclusion that Stevie J is the go, if he keeps playing midfield, there's a good chance he will easily average more than the other options. The guy can rake in points.

fever

thanks mate. tippet is on my watchlist, but would probably only bring him in for the GF if i get there and he's still scoring ok. too much risk at this stage.

I like Taylor Walker for a bit of a POD. Only in 6.11% of teams and they play Freo, Brisbane, Meblourne and Gold Coast and should dominate in all of those games and 99% sure he wont get rested as he has already 5 missed games through suspension this year.
