Cachia is the other. Should get games while Carrazzo is out.

Carazzo isnt long term, Kennedys JS increasing with Thomas & Fasolo injured long term

Carrazzo might be out for another 3 weeks with the calf. Also considering Thomas was playing in the back half, he was not putting pressure on Kennedy for a spot. Fasolo is a different story. Cachia needs to outperform Curnow and Bell this week and he will hold his spot. He will be a good short term cash option if he is named. Plays the majority in the middle which is what you want meaning he is around the ball at least.

i reckon Lonergan mate, because that's who i picked :P

he'd have the better JS you'd think

I like Lonergan too, but it leaves me with 3 GCS players in my midfield! Anyone else with this, and does it make you feel uncomfortable?
Lonergan goes to the bench for me, and I have GAJ and O'Meara on the field.

Won't make me feel uncomfortable. O'meara will be upgraded in the next few weeks and Lonergan might be gone by round 13.

The mids in round 13 will be hard enough even before you add the 'rookies'.

Most teams have 2 if not 3 (or 4!! :o  :o) of GAZ, Pendles, Swan, Danger and Watson.

Add O'Meara (and Crouch, Kommer, Kennedy etc etc) AND Lonergan!

Asking to get a gig on The Biggest Loser after you chow down thousands of calories in all those round 13 donuts.

Just remember, that whilst the scores of only 18 players are counted, these have to be ON the FIELD.

So a midline of GAZ, Pendles, Watson, Cotchin, Swan, Danger, O'Meara, Lonergan and Crouch will score the same as Cotchin!

Also, may I suggest you watch out and think clearly when you are planning on using DPP to cover because most lines will by statistics alone, probably have at least one player from each bye round already there - and more than likely 2.

3 trades per bye round is going to be far too tempting if you don't start planning right now.

Correct me if I'm wrong but from what I read on the link below, your emergency bench players will count as part of your top 18 scores.

" you'll score from your best 18 players only in any position, from your selected, on-field Starting 22."

That's cut and pasted from the HeraldSun SC site.

I read that to mean from your on field starting 22.

I guess you could have a defender spare on the bench as an emergency, but do you think he could score as a mid emergency even though he isn't on field?  :o

I'll chase your link but I thought it seemed pretty clear.

If anyone knows for sure - HELP US!

so is kennedy the best fwd option for neade if u cant swing him into the mids?

i need to downgrade him this week to get some cash.

cheers

woofy

I think the information from Herald Sun is right and the information from the link is incorrect. For round 13 you could have 19 round 13 players playing then trade out EG. Lonergan/Bennedy/Brown for any round 11 or 12 players to avoid the donuts.

So either you pick Lonergan or Kennedy, if you have too many round 13 players you could upgrade/downgrade to a round 11/12 premium or rookie.

Think Kennedy is the best on the bubble in the forward line unless you go Staker.

The Bomber

I'm pondering this as well. All week I was all for Lonergan, but the DPP for Kennedy has me second guessing myself. I might have to follow the stats and get Lonergan...

HotTiges

big decision tomorrow between these 2.. extra 30k could be handy.. Have Neade in the mids.. do i need to keep DPP??
