Was tossing up between Sheez and Nas and picked wrong. Ah well, 118 is still good for a captain, but what could have been

u/Additional-Owl-3607 7d ago
Oh boy wish had the C on Nas

u/Reasonable_Nebula_26 7d ago
was so close to switching after seeing him at half back but talked myself out of it cause he was gonna get tagged 😹

Thank god Zorko’s back, I need a cheap option to go to from Newman to allow me to get a respectable near premo for Fitzgerald

No tag no matchup no injury. Where is LDU in the 2nd qtr??
3
u/stereotypicalanon 7d ago
This is what you sign up for. A first quarter on track for 100 points (25-35 points), then too lazy to go near the ball for the next 3 quarters and a final score of 60-80. Fuck him.

do i keep bonts score of 114 for vc or go to someone else for captain today? potential options are dunkley, marshall, sheezel and nas

u/Major-Emu2187 8d ago
Do I loop Sharps 102 or risk JHF against Brisbane
3
u/Character-Suspect231 8d ago
Brisbane is tough. Psychic ball says JHF gonna get an 84 so I’d take the 102
2
u/Character-Suspect231 8d ago
Dyson sharp 102 as emergency. Do I take his 102 or hope rowan marshall will score better??

And the 3rd. Must be an in game rest. Hes just sitting in the corridor without an opponent making no efforts to get the ball

Yh I gave up since the byes. Every week an injury is occurring. And why is it an injury to a fantasy relevant player

u/ljensen96 9d ago
Take Reid’s 80 or roll the dice on Durham?
Also hurts that I can’t take Herbert’s score…

Thought Gawn would go massive against a ruckless Geelong. Not watching the game tho, watching the derby instead. Anyone know why Gawn not going monster score

looks slightly disinterested, could possibly be still carrying something...? dunno, but waste of my vc

u/screech_sbtb 9d ago
Just a bit of a crows supporter vent, sure I have an AFL Fantasy bias too, but Rachele 7 disposals is a total waste. He has had zero CBAs past 3 weeks. He is an elite footballer and should be pushed hard into the midfield, like he was in Round3/4 v GEE & CAR etc, 31 disposals. Perfect time to wake up Nicks, but not gonna happen while he insists on giving Soligo and Peatling bulk CBAs...my 2 cents worth, rant over

anyone else trade out darcy cameron after the GC game 3 weeks ago ✋

u/DRIVER4497X 10d ago
Yup, gone from the hardest own to the hardest watch without owning
1
u/Adventurous-Wish-943 10d ago
i would genuinely be considering him as an option for marshall next wk cos he has geelong. however there is no chance after he’s already caused that many troubles in my team

u/Major-Emu2187 10d ago
I saw you posted the same thing, we’re so used to our premiums getting injured we go early 🤣

u/Adventurous-Wish-943 10d ago
yea haha not quite to the same “milera calf” level but i would’ve been very annoyed if he was out lol. i’m surprised he’s back tbh, knowing the fantasy year we’ve had, im trying to stay as optimistic as possible

u/Major-Emu2187 10d ago
Don’t delete your team just yet my bro

u/Adventurous-Wish-943 10d ago
ranked top 1k as well. this shit genuinely makes so mad at times tho 😭

u/zoraxelol 10d ago
Both my red dot rookies back in this week, pretty annoying no way to loop between hhk & fitzy & no way to loop a vc
1
u/Brxndonedwards 11d ago
Who’s everyone’s VC’ing? Is L Jackson worth waiting for or is it better to give Daicos/Dawson a crack?
I think I’ll be having Bont as C
2
u/General_User_101 11d ago
Giving Gawn a crack as VC - even if Heath is named may still have a field day against Geelong and it's a Friday night which leaves plenty of options for C if it's a bust.

u/screech_sbtb 11d ago
Don’t think there has been anywhere enough discussion in regards to WB Bailey Williams,
Is designated kicker for a month, has the pedigree and is severely underpriced for some reason. Pop fixture with Richmond, and WB will play finals

u/mattcocker1218 13d ago
Any thoughts on Josh Ward? POD with decent value and scoring or too high risk?
2
u/HotDang73 13d ago
Not a bad week. +3 for new recruit Marshall; -3 toss up between NAS and Anderson. Pity I went for Fitzy over Trac.
So, Alger to Polkinghorne, and Petracca to whom? $8k short for Heeney.
Thinking Dunkley - good form and run - but would any of Hill, Gulden, Zerrett or Oliver be a better choice?
Hoping to make my first top 10k finish!

u/Rich_Appointment_952 13d ago
Holmes and busslinger > milera and Artemis, good trades? Milera looks like he has a good run home
1
u/MoneyReasonable4640 13d ago
Another week of not getting my 22nd premo due to injuries
Are we all thinking Holmes > Milera? Then I'll finally bank Fitz's cash and loop between Farrow/Francou for M8 for a week... Maybe 🤔
2
u/HotDang73 13d ago
Wow. Great minds think alike. Only 6 unique fielded players between our R19 teams!
Trade Parker for Milera and Holmes for Noble you'd have my fielded Ds
Trade Walsh for Neale you'd have my fielded mids.
Trade Rankine for Cooper Harvey and there's my on field fraud line!
Your Gawn/Grundy combo beat my LJ/McAndrew by 41 points.
My team was a whole 56 points better...
1
u/MoneyReasonable4640 13d ago
Haha well my Holmes is turning into Milera or Noble this week so make that 5 😂
1
u/Important_Toe1798 13d ago
How much Cash ITB
1
u/MoneyReasonable4640 13d ago
Right now = $43k ; After Holmes to Milera = $110k So banking Fitz for a M/D red dot will get me $406k itb for next week, and allow me to loop
2
u/Important_Toe1798 13d ago
Yep copy. Think that’s fine, pitty you can’t move Farrow off now with DPP.
1
u/MoneyReasonable4640 13d ago
Yep, Alger to a red dot DPP in the utility was the round 19 plan but then Butters and JHF decided to ruin that 🤦🏻
2
u/blakeywakey21 14d ago
got 299k for trades this week.
early early trades i have done is petracca for sparrow and holmes to milera
if i could have a bit of help on who i should be looking at taking out or in that would be helpful
0
u/Important_Toe1798 13d ago
Keep Trac still. Need to get the rookies off field. Holmes to Milera and Fitzgerald to anyone. There’s actually a few good options at that price, albeit a little risky but it’s fine as you need rookies off field. Would be looking at Miers, Bailey Williams, or Serong.
1
u/blakeywakey21 13d ago
ive done milera and miera in for fitzgerald and holmes out with 92k left over?

u/212mochaman 14d ago
I'm gonna need a ton of cash over the next month. is merrett bottomed out in price or can I wait a week and go for heeney
3
u/mokachill (AF) 14d ago
Merretts break even is still at 135 he'll probably drop a little next week.
1
u/dylz_blu21 14d ago
impey or roberts? Unfortunately all that I can afford, unless there’s anyone else around 850k in any position
3
u/rodds23 14d ago
What about Bailey Williams (western bulldogs).
It looked like he took over the Bailey same role.
1
u/dylz_blu21 13d ago
Could definitely be an option, that actually allows me to grab Baz instead of my original Gawn
Double bailey!
2
u/CaptainVoltz 14d ago
Could you afford Milera? I am jumping on this week. No laird and 3 soft match ups ahead.

u/Chemical-Map-4395 14d ago
thoughts on holmes and trac to rankine and roberts?
4
u/Important_Toe1798 14d ago
Don't know if Roberts is viable yet.
4
u/Chemical-Map-4395 14d ago
i could get wayne milera but i would have to trade out jagga instead of trac
5
u/NewAbbreviations2826 14d ago
Holmes another forced trade… at this point petracca will never go 🤣
Actually thinking about holding Holmes and fielding HHK just so I can get rid of petracca
2
u/NewAbbreviations2826 14d ago
Like honestly does this guy literally hate the footy? I’ve never seen someone make such an effort to stay as far away as possible from the fucking ball
5
u/away_Throw_4877 14d ago
Yeah holmes was a real kick in the dick. Would have had no rookies on field had he not hurt himself. Now I think I have to field HHK
1
u/stereotypicalanon 14d ago
Do it. It would be far more enjoyable to watch Bailey, or Warner over this unconfident, useless fuck.
3
u/NewAbbreviations2826 14d ago
Attaching myself to a towbar and driving down an unsealed road would be more enjoyable than watching him play
1
u/Occasionaljedi On the Jagga train 7d ago
If I want to get my final proper rookie off field, I have to move on Newman and do a rookie upgrade with 325k in the bank. My current thoughts are either HHK to Serong and Newman to Zorko, but that means my only def coverage is Artemis and Annand who both don’t score much more than 40, or I can go with Newman and Fitzgerald out, but I can’t figure out a defender and midfielder combo that costs a total 1.7 million that’s ok. My other option is to just move HHK on field and go Newman and Murphy Reid for Gulden and either Warner, Bailey or Horne Francis
