Hey, trading out Setterfield do you think Walsh or Anderson with the bye?
Who do I get? Whitfield, Stewart or Powell?
Stewart
Any interest in Cerra?
I was looking at him too, but surprised they haven’t said a thing about him
any thoughts on Mr Worldwide to save/make extra $$ until his bye?
averaging over 80 in his last 3 without TDK, has a BE under 40, saves me over 200k (brought in Grundy when Gawn went down, but he has to go) to put elsewhere, then trade him to Gawn when he has the bye..
OK, I might be a bit behind the eight ball here. Who’s Mr Worldwide and why?
Marc Pittonet. So the “Pitt” part turns into “Pitbull”, aka Mr Worldwide
Makes sense now, thanks
thoughts on mr worldwide for marshall if hes out this week which would allow me to get my last low averaging rook (ginbey) off for someone like laird
Trading out Setterfield already got tom green, oliver, steele. What premo mid should i get?
Not sure what your bye structure is looking like MAx, but I’m looking at Anderson for this reason.
Who should I go to from Luke pedlar to either Tom Stewart or Callum mills?
