Last one – who goes first Hardwick or Phillips? Please help – not sure on best options (see above) Thanks
Ethan F
April 21, 2021 at 11:49 am
Hardwick.
Josh K
April 21, 2021 at 6:31 am
Best trade
1. Fantasia and Campbell to Andy Brayshaw and Finley Macrae
Or
2. Rowe and Campbell to Heppell and rookie under 215k?
1 or 2?.
Jake
April 21, 2021 at 8:11 am
i’d go 1 personally
Josh
April 21, 2021 at 8:20 am
Bit stuck on what to do and i’d appreciate some help.
Do I:
1. try and upgrade someone on my field with 160K even tho everyone is doing fine
or
2. get rid of rookies on my bench who are starting to burn out and replace them with playing rookies for cash generation
Straight shooter
April 21, 2021 at 9:52 am
If your on field is fine then I think snswered your own question mate
Ethan F
April 21, 2021 at 11:47 am
Depends on ‘fine’. If you have J.Clark, T.Phillips, B.Campbell, etc on field, I’d probably get rid of them first before fixing up rookies. Either is acceptable but target rookies with high JS.

Lachie Jones is out. He needs to go.
Matthew Murphy

RUCK: Grundy, Gawn (Flynn)

Thinking Berry to McCreary and Brockman to Jones via dpp. Maybe trade out Campbell instead? Only have 116k to spend.
Any advice?
Ethan F
April 23, 2021 at 1:55 pm
You only listed 5 on-field defenders.
Berry and Ridley are out so there’s your trade-outs. Jones is also out, don’t bring him in. Brockman should come back in. I’d do Berry to Farrar/F.Macrae and then Ridley to Rich/Docherty.
The Cricket
April 23, 2021 at 4:22 pm
Hold Ridley. He’s a top 6 defender and will only miss this week (unless problems develop, in which case you can re-evaluate him then).
I’d suggest fixing up your rookies by offloading nonplayers eg Highmore, or those who’ve maxed out eg Campbell (who may be rested this week anyway)
Cam

Farrar or F. Macrae, looking for scoring as they will be in my field
Harmes
April 21, 2021 at 10:18 pm
Best pick this week
Fyfe or
Andy Brayshaw
Zach
April 22, 2021 at 12:02 pm
Which Option?
1. Phillips to F. Macrae, Cumming to Docherty (194k)
2. Rowe to F. Macrae, Phillips to Docherty (4k)
Cam

Jeff

Gaff or Jake Lloyd
bomberpap
April 23, 2021 at 7:34 pm
Lloyd. More of a lock to be top 6 def compared to Gaff in top 8 mids. That said, both are great choices this week!
Ethan F
April 23, 2021 at 1:50 pm
Why is everyone so hot on Finlay Macrae? He only scored 54 last week. Am I missing something? He’s only Jack’s half-brother, I think that’s pretty weak evidence for trading someone in.
The Cricket
April 23, 2021 at 4:30 pm
Yep, it’s funny the way everyone jumps on a bandwagon. I think he’s a target because he’s affordable and is a DPP.
But his BE is a little high for my liking and his job security is uncertain.
It’d be foolish to trade in any Pies rookies until teams are announced on Saturday evening imo

Happy Friday lads, I am a bit concerned and stressed on what to do with my team this week;
DEF: Stewart, Short, Clark, Cumming, Jiath, Idun (Highmore, Kosi)
MID: Merrett, Taranto, Laird, Treloar, Edwards, Gulden, Powell, Jordan (Brockman, Downie)
RUCK: Gawn, O’Brien (Flynn)
FWD: Dusty, Phillips, Hind, Warner, Campbell, Robertson (Rowe, Scott)
UTILITY: Meek
$90k ITB
Any suggested trades would be appreciated.
Ethan F
April 23, 2021 at 5:31 pm
I’ve been wanting to trade Meek recently so I’d get him to a different position UTL. Maybe Finlay Macrae offers good flexibility with DPP. Other trade depends on team news. If Campbell/Robertson are out, one of them needs to go. Otherwise I’d go Clark or Phillips to maybe Markov or Impey. Clark is a definite out if he’s not named.
Green Weevil
April 23, 2021 at 8:10 pm
Both need to go but can only ditch one. Who is priority Trade Out? Jordan Clark or Campbell?
Ethan F
April 24, 2021 at 11:50 am
Probably about the same. B.Campbell was probably managed, not omitted so likely to come back in. Clark less likely. B.Campbell will lose money if he comes on as the medical sub though. I’d get rid of Clark first because he’s worth more.
Stimpy

Need some advice before pulling the trigger
Have Gawn R1..Hickey R2..Flynn R3 Meek UTL
What I was thinking as I have no cash…downgrade Hickey to a playing rookie..Move meek to R2 for Flynns score…I would upgrade Hickey but can only get to Rob
Ps I want to get Macrae next week as well haha
Ethan F

Clark and Campbell both names as Subs!
Beware if using either to loophole a VC from last night.
