Boyd vs Masten

[Glort]

Boyd back from injury, and has been a lock in my team the last 3 years or the new kid on the block...... I also added jelwood and Monty incase anybody thought they were better options but I doubt ill go for either. Interesting that Masten and Boyd will be up against each other this weekend.......

[dillez]

is anyone considering redden? The lions run home is pretty awesome!

[Glort]

I won't be looking at Redden personally, I just don't trust him enough

[Glort]

Bump :)
This poll is doing nicely, 3 votes for 3 people....... A few different opinions out there. Please keep voting people this one is really racking my brains, cheers :)

I'll make the case for Jelwood over Boyd

Jelwood BE 58
Boyd 104
(from Freako)

in the days of YOLO trading you get better value with Jelwood this wk and you get to see if Boyd suffers any ill-effect from the relatively short injury lay-off ...

low-risk where even if Jelwood tanks, he will go up in price and you get closer to Boyd's price unless he smashes out 120+ this wk ...

Good in theory, but Boyd will cover 104 baring injury and will most likely go up.  I was considering doing this, but too undecided about Cotchin, Boyd, Selwood and Beams this week so brought in my last defender and will see how these four go, best one comes into my team next week.

Scooter and Boyd are very tempting :P

[Glort]

You had to go and mention scooter  :P
I think I may just roll a dice :)

[Ricochet]

Have to back Boyd in. He's one of the best DT players out there

I'm just worried Boyd might be a bit slow coming back from injury this week. Surprising nobody brought it up tbh.

[Glort]

After much thinking I'm going with JSelwood......, I'm unsure on Boyd, I want to see how he goes and in the GF he will be playing against Melbourne who he doesn't like playing. I don't like West Coasts finals run so I'm scrubbing Masten and Scooter. I'm going with Jelwood now simply because of his run through finals, form and a low b/e. I have a man crush on Boyd and I hope this doesn't hurt me, I'm sure he and Beams will find their way into my Mids come finals anyway, those Mids want to perform to stay in our sides! :)

still a good move ...

Boyd covered his 104 BE scoring 112, but only went up $1.6k (sourced from FF)
Jelwood in ripping form of late, absolutely smashed his 58 BE with 136 going up in price a massive $31k (FF again)

it was pretty much a no-risk option - now you can decide if you still want Boyd this week cos he's not out of reach but you would've missed Jelwood at around $490k.

[Glort]

Thanks for the advice J595 :)
My trades actually worked out this week, and they didn't get injured straight away after I bought them in!  :P
I'm probably going to leave my midfeild alone this week, I'm happy with all my Mids so far. I'm going for cash this week for unlimited finals tweaking. I will probably wind up with Beams and/or Boyd next week, their b/e's are still a little high.

Commiserations to anyone who picked Masten, as a west coast supporter my heart sank when he went down. I was soooo close to getting him in too :(
