Sinclair or Dawson? And Steele or Brayshaw?
BrodieA
July 3, 2022 at 8:27 pm
Dawson, Brayshaw
Bill
July 3, 2022 at 8:29 pm
2357. Not a bad score. Planning ahead to improve my team more.
Bill
July 4, 2022 at 2:52 pm
Shows how bad my season has been when I’m happy with anything over 2300…
The Choozler
July 4, 2022 at 2:55 pm
I dream of scoring 2300

2324 with Doc as C. Not happy Jan
Angus
July 4, 2022 at 7:45 am
2319 with Mills as C. Not happy either :(
BrodieA
July 3, 2022 at 8:47 pm
After this round, I dont know who is the bigger must trade
Tom
July 3, 2022 at 9:35 pm
I can get anyone under 914k, who should i get? Sinclair, Mills, Whitfield, Miller, Crisp, Libba, Gawn???
Naishforbrownlow
July 3, 2022 at 9:37 pm
Miller is in form at the moment grab him
brian Smith
July 3, 2022 at 10:46 pm
Zerrett
The Kid
July 3, 2022 at 9:59 pm
What is a better combo:
1. ROB and Soligo (on bench)
2. English and Jeffrey (on bench)
ROB has a good run coming up, and will give me the space to keep Soligo while he is still generating cash. When I downgrade him it will give me cash for a couple of weeks to upgrade. Thoughts?
John1
July 3, 2022 at 10:46 pm
I feel like if you go ROB now you will still have to bring in english later on, not a bad problem however because as you say, ROB has a real nice run coming
Id go ROB, and save soligo to downgrade next week potentially
Jamison Cameron
July 3, 2022 at 10:01 pm
Who do i bring in out of these???
Mills, Steele, Keays, Cluggage,
Ollie
July 3, 2022 at 10:24 pm
I’d take Steele he is the most reliable. I have Mills in front of Steele if he plays mid, but has a breakeven of 162 or around about. Could roll the dice with Keays if you want to, has a good last couple of weeks and good price, Cluggage really good on form but higher in price and haven’t seen as much from him in the past
Stimpy
July 3, 2022 at 10:04 pm
Choose one that i dont have to trade out in a week or two ,because of bad scores or stuck in the fwd line
1) Bont
2)Tarranto
3) Duncan
I need to pick a keeper 😁
John1
July 3, 2022 at 10:49 pm
well bont is the safer pick there, id go him
Stimpy
July 3, 2022 at 11:06 pm
Cheers John1
Chris Lamb
July 3, 2022 at 10:08 pm
Heeney to Bont vs Libba vs Parker vs Taranto ??
Can afford Bailey Smith and English too but not sure on either
brian Smith
July 3, 2022 at 11:02 pm
How much cash do you need to keep for next week’s trade? Bont possibly best, but Parker / Taranto not far behind and could save you 60.
JungleMuffin
July 3, 2022 at 10:13 pm
How’s poor Roy. Smashes 2400 and gets the vest 😂
Ollie
July 3, 2022 at 10:19 pm
Treloar, Taranto, Liba, or Bont
brian Smith
July 3, 2022 at 10:58 pm
Didn’t Treloar come off injured? Depends where you’re at – do you need to gamble or can you play it safe? For a gamble: Taranto > Liba > Bont > Treloar. To play it safe: Bont > Liba > Taranto > Treloar
Plus6
July 4, 2022 at 12:14 am
How can Treloar be last on both lists.. that defies logic
brian Smith
July 3, 2022 at 10:51 pm
Who goes first – Jed Anderson, Hately or Lipinski? All have ‘easy’ matchups this round, all scoring mid 70s all lost cash this round.
Who do I trade in – McLuggage (1% ownership) or Zerrett + 80 for next round
BestowedMisery
July 4, 2022 at 2:34 am
Might be handy if you check Cal’s latest scale of hardness.
Plan for the remainder of the season instead of one ‘easy’ round..
brian Smith
July 4, 2022 at 5:32 pm
The plan is to get rid of all of them asap, so I’m only looking one or two rounds ahead, not the rest of the season. Thinking Hately > Merrett, then Lipinski to Taranto next week . . . .
Jacob
July 3, 2022 at 11:57 pm
I’m really struggling this season and need tips for what to do. Still only scoring 2100 a week. Got $172k left. Gotta get as many great tips as possible to improve.
Def: Docherty, Short, Hewett, Sicily, Whitfield, Wehr (DeKoning, Archer)
Mid: Oliver, Mills, Miller, Macrae, Steele, Petracca, Mitchell, Rozee (Owens, Angwin)
Ruck: English, Witts (Begg)
Fwd: Dunkley, Coniglio, Brodie, Heeney, Anderson, Xerri (Butler, Baldwin)
Utl: Bazzo
pendles4brownlow
July 4, 2022 at 12:21 am
You should have offloaded Baldwin and Xerri long ago. Baldwin has hardly played and could have been a rook who would have been going up in value. Xerri peaked long ago. SDK may give you enough value to down-trade to a basement rook so you can upgrade Xerri to Dawson or Brayshaw via DPP. You need to work to get all rooks off the field, then try to improve the players on field to premiums. Once you can get Wehr and Xerri off your field, look to upgrade Rozee, Heeney and Anderson.
Straight Shooter
July 4, 2022 at 11:01 pm
Dekoning down to Burgoyne Anderson up to Parker or Taranto then next week hope for a rookie mid for owes an Xerri up good luck
pendles4brownlow
July 4, 2022 at 12:08 am
I was at Carrara in 1991 to watch Peter Daicos kick 13 goals against Brisbane in an absolute masterclass. I think I saw a future legend of the game on Saturday night in Peter’s son, Nick, as he showed a glimpse of what he will be.
Phteven
July 4, 2022 at 12:29 pm
I thiink that young Burgoyne who debuted on the weekend is also bound to be a star like his father was.
Straight Shooter
July 4, 2022 at 11:04 pm
Not sure Peter was a star good player for sure but not star
Straight Shooter
July 4, 2022 at 11:05 pm
Burgoyne that us
BestowedMisery
July 4, 2022 at 2:12 am
I’d be getting rid of those 2 Kangaroo’s on your field asap.
BestowedMisery
July 4, 2022 at 2:44 am
Wow, Brodie is only $1,000 cheaper than Cripps.
No one would have predicted that 9 weeks ago.
My biggest regret bringing that spud in when I knew
better..
fmdt x 4..
Angus
July 4, 2022 at 7:50 am
Taranto or Duncan?
Angus
July 4, 2022 at 8:11 am
Sorry didn’t mean to reply to ur earlier comment
Straight Shooter
July 4, 2022 at 11:07 pm
Taranto. Duncan has a great roll for 3 weeks though
Doug
July 4, 2022 at 8:55 am
2412 with playing Mead, so could be worse..
Jackson out meant my strategy of downgrade/upgrade went out the window, so out went Jackson for ROB (big W), but meant that I could only get to Lloyd from Stewart (big L, shoulda banked cash & played Massimo)
BUT – Sinclair, Daicos, Neale, Clarry, Guthrie, Touk (C), Zerret, Trac, ROB, Cogs, Dunks, Bont & Brodie went alright..
In fact my mids averaged 118.25 which includes Hately’s 62…
NP
July 4, 2022 at 9:09 am
2317 copping a donut in the Ruck – and still went up about 1000 ranks from 9k-8k… Would’ve been nice to be aggressive and crack 2400 in hindsight. But I was sick of being still weeks away from completing my team. Just the Jackson (RUC/FWD) and Hately (MID) upgrades to go now.
Thinking either Hately to Steele/Brayshaw (10k short of Clarry), or
Jackson to Taranto/Gawn
Jackson has a lower BE so might be worth waiting another week as long as he plays
Doug
July 4, 2022 at 12:20 pm
Ditto with Hately, but also need to throw in Heeney, pending Dan Houston being OK..
Thinking Heeney back to Jackson (traded him out to ROB last week to avoid a 0) if Gawn misses another week, then upgrading Hately to Telly/Shiel (best upgrade I can get in Mid) or a wildcard in Salem down back switching a DPP into M8..
Dulcify
July 4, 2022 at 9:41 am
So disappointed to have picked Witts over ROB. It was purely to save $30 odd grand. Cost me 64 points. Along with Heeney and N Martin these 3 players stopped me getting to the magical 2500. Finished on 2490, I am happy with that. 2499 in RDT.
BrodieA
July 8, 2022 at 1:58 pm
Same here mate, although I chose Witts over ROB when he pumped out his 150. Been stuck with him since
Jake
July 4, 2022 at 10:17 am
2441 for me this week! Including a donut from Jackson, contemplating what might have been but stoked none the less. Rozee to English and Short to Sinclair this week holding Daicos with a good match up again.
Pill
July 4, 2022 at 10:54 am
Best week I’ve had all year, scored 2509
+3’s – Sinclair, Dawson, Laird, Neale, Miller, Cogs, Duncan, Oliver (c)
-3’s – Cripps, Sicily, Short & Crisp – All close to premiums but just can’t do it at the moment.
Ideally looking to bring in either Docherty, Mills, Steele or Brayshaw this week.
Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.
Tom
July 4, 2022 at 11:15 am
How safe is it to field Callum M. Brown for one week against Port Adelaide.
brian Smith
July 5, 2022 at 2:45 pm
Who’s going to get injured or give you a forced trade this week, means that CMB has to be on field next week as well? Be very careful!!
Domè
July 4, 2022 at 12:10 pm
Who do I field this week, Hately or L.Jackson?
Looks like gawn is back, and Hately was pushed to wing but has Hawks this week
Stimpy
July 4, 2022 at 2:16 pm
Can someone tell me did Treloar get injured,in the game on the weekend?
Noble's Last Days
July 4, 2022 at 5:09 pm
Strained a hamstring late in the game, didn’t look bad. He’s still a good chance to play this week.
Mark
July 4, 2022 at 5:59 pm
Keays or Merrett?
Both have a good run home.
pendles4brownlow
July 4, 2022 at 8:30 pm
Keays has a good run. but he has had a good run for a while also and has been going downhill – v WCE 84, v Suns 75, v Northern witches hats 110 (sounds good but not when playing witches hats). Is his 123 against Melbourne a false dawn? Risky as.
Out of these two, Zerrett wins hands down, but I would not take either. Are either of them going to be top 8 mids for the last part of the season. Highly doubtful.
Mark
July 5, 2022 at 2:04 pm
TY you pendles
Norman
July 5, 2022 at 8:56 pm
Out of those 2 I’d go Merrett for the following reasons…
I’ve owned Keays all season. At the start he was a BEAST and was constantly hunting the ball and working overtime to get the uncontested marks and win it out of the pack.
Since Laird came in his role has changed. He still gets the same mid time but he only really operates from Arc to Arc (doesn’t leave the centre square apart from the occasional push forward) and doesn’t go out to the wings when the ball is there.
He also sits outside of the stoppages waiting for the release handball and is a lot more of a link up/outlet player now rather than the “see ball get ball” which Laird (and Berry) are doing very well.
It’s been quite frustrating to own him tbh and for that reason I choose Zerrett
Jay
July 4, 2022 at 8:56 pm
Early trade thoughts
Option 1 – wehr (onfield) and SDK (bench) out for Dawson and Burgoyne and 28k in bank for next week playing degoey
Option 2 – SDK (bench) and degoey (onfield) out for Salem and berry (crows) and 11k in bank for next week
Straight Shooter
July 4, 2022 at 11:15 pm
Option 1. cash gen option an with Dawson being a keeper 2. To risky pics with upside
Andy
July 4, 2022 at 9:18 pm
Wehr or Soligo (both on bench) to trade out first for an upgrade? Both have similar BE’s. Team structure prob works better if it’s Wehr
Gus
July 5, 2022 at 4:54 am
Are we Trading Out Luke Jackson with Gawn returning?
(providing Max gets through final fitness test 2moz)
NP
July 5, 2022 at 5:33 pm
I’ll hold and sort out other issues elsewhere.
Logic being Gawn likely to go down in price and Jackson likely to go up
Euman
July 5, 2022 at 7:55 am
Brayshaw freo or Neale
Boy George
July 5, 2022 at 9:06 am
Steele or Tracca?
Angus
July 5, 2022 at 7:57 pm
Downgrading Soligo for cash, got Owens and Stevens in M10 and Utility, so need the new rookie to be playing for any injuries and late-outs, can’t decide wether to go;
A) Tunstill for JS and scoring, which I might need, or,
B) Trew for the extra 20k that might b useful for next week upgrading Hately, though might have less JS and scoring.
Any thoughts appreciated :)
Shaz
July 5, 2022 at 8:02 pm
I have O’Brian, English, Cameron and Jackson Thinking for trades, Cameron to Taranto through DPP and Hately to Laird.
Any thoughts or better options appreciated

July 5, 2022 at 9:19 pm
Too early to ditch cameron I think. Hes got a couple more weeks before grundy is back
Justin Stitchup
July 5, 2022 at 8:12 pm
What is the JS like for GWS Callum M Brown?
John1
July 5, 2022 at 9:15 pm
if he keeps kicking 4 goals a game then hes safe, hard to tell otherwise
John1
July 5, 2022 at 9:11 pm
Could go anyone under 914k this week, was planning on english but taranto looks juicy too. Going taranto leaves me with some cash to help finally get rid of my last rookie next week
Options im looking at are:
English
steele
sinclair
walsh
bont
Taranto
Any thoughts?
Jez
July 6, 2022 at 5:31 am
Which combo do you think is best after trading in Dawson
1) N Martin/ Degoey
2) Wehr/ Coleman
I am McGovern
July 6, 2022 at 10:38 am
Houston & Mccomb to Whitfield & Rookie or Houston & Hately to Naicos & Timmy T.
Naicos feels like a backward step but scoring better than Houston and could last the season at D6
MooshGuy
July 6, 2022 at 10:45 am
Have lots of cash this round, can bring in 2 of these 3 players: Dawson, Sinclair, Taranto – which 2 should I pick?
Angus
July 6, 2022 at 1:12 pm
Who to bring in out of Libba, Duncan, Taranto, Treloar and Parker?
Straight Shooter
July 6, 2022 at 5:10 pm
Libba if ya got no more rookie’s on field Taranto if U need cash for an upgrade next week
Sam
July 7, 2022 at 10:09 am
D.Rioli, N.Martin, H.Morrison, S.Berry or C.Brown?
Stimpy
July 9, 2022 at 10:27 pm
Neale, Walsh, Laird as captain?
