Matty Crouch not named..

[kilbluff1985]

quick, kinda related question...  are trades reversible mid way thru a round??  if i trade crouch out and play around with my team, can i reverse it before tomorrows game?

yes because it's rolling lockout

[Bully]

I'm still going to select him, this could actually make him a decent POD now. Happy to use him for loophole purposes in the meantime.

As long as he's named in the next few weeks you'll be fine.

It's a bit of a gamble but I figure he'll make an appearance in the next few weeks. Sando indicated he's next in line so maybe he'll be selected for next week's derby.

If he's named in a few weeks time wouldn't you be better off bringing him in on the bubble (around round 5). Then you can at least make some cash on rookies that are playing up until then and there is no risk in hoping he will stay in the side once he debuts.

Good in theory but every one of my rookies is essential for my bye planning, they won't be going anywhere until round 9.

Yeh but your banking on a rookie being picked when there are others who are already picked and have much better job security.
At the end of the day its completely up to you man but its very very risky

I'm going with a 4/6 structure and already have Tyson, Michie, Ellis, Polec & Dunstan. Aish is too expensive so Crouch is basically the only other player I'm interested in.

If Sando wasn't so bullish in his praise then I might consider swinging McDonald into the mids but I'm not entirely sold on Georgiou & Langford in terms of JS. And like I mentioned earlier, I need all my mid rookies to cover over the bye period - especially round 8 when Ablett, Pendles & Beams will be out of action.

An idea a lot of people can go with is moving LMac to M10 and picking up Georgiou or Langford to replace him down back, and you can always move LMac back to def in a couple of weeks time

^ all over this move...L-mac to mids..M.crouch to non playing back..take Langdons 111 get in Laider or KK next week..i have the cash so its all 1 trade and another R10 rookie in laider would be better for me structre wise down back,If M.Crouch can't get a game now with all the Adelaide injuries i am worried.

[kilbluff1985]

3 mid premos now lol  :o

[Vinny]

Far too weak I reckon man

[TheMoops]

For those looking for just a straight swap with a mid, is Templeton a good option?

Yes in SC but a big fat NO in AF.

Found out the hard way.

Temples, Robertson are potential options..

[SydneyRox]

meh, never had him, would have thought about it had he got named, but happy with the mid rookies I have. And MacD in defense

Crouch doesn't have DPP status so you'll need to rethink that strategy.

Can you afford Templeton?

[Vinny]

Hahaha I know, most shower competition.

SC is where it's at.

RDT is good but I've already forgotten to fix my Round 1 team and I'll forget about the whole thing soon enough.

What?
--> Crouch out
--> Lmac to mids
--> Any defence rookie in

[Rusty00]

Cannot possibly pick him now I reckon.

McDonald M10 is very tempting.

This is my thinking ;)
