    Round 4 Discussion

    I've actually had no major disasters so far, Only 4 tons but projected score still just under 2200 (my projection is ~2300) which seems likely to be a decent score this week with lower scores across the board and some people having bad luck. 8 yet to play today though so plenty could...

    Rookies 2016

    Lee and Byrne did look OK, but JS is concerning. Byrne-Jones is the other one playing his 2nd game today. Actually was keen on Lee preseason. If he looks like holding his spot he might be the one to go for.

    Rookies 2016

    I guesstimate about the same. It's perfect timing for Ruggles via DPP action but a 40 this week makes me hesitate. He did get 17 touches though - how do you score just 40 from 17 touches (70% DE)?? Are there any other options that look viable? I don't want to do what I do every year and...

    Round 4 Discussion

    Turns out 20 wasn't worst case, it was 34 points!!! Didn't watch all of the game, but didn't sight Papley at all. Did think he'd score less in tougher games, but the Swans scored over 100 last night and he still did nothing. He looks like he'll be up for slaughtering next week now with a 46...

    Round 4 Discussion

    Disappointing score for him given the circumstances. Only 66% TOG so suspect with the result decided they thought best to manage his gametime and let Lycett ruck for a bit.

    Priddis a late out as rumoured.

    Round 4 Discussion

    Was at the game last week, I did hear a lot "Falcon King Hampson" whenever he got the ball. Like you though, perhaps I did mishear.....

    Round 4 Discussion

    NicNat on Hampson is interesting. Hampson is a spud but does pretty well in the ruck contests and hasn't given up big scores or dominance to opposition ruckmen yet. Hampson gets around the ground pretty well too, you just don't want him to get the ball (thankfully for Tiger fans he's not that...

    I'm holding off on Gaz hoping he has a quiet fortnight. Talk is Robinson "tags" him this week, although that didn't work so well for Jelwood last week. Then R5 he has North and Jacobs to contend with. Hoping he'll be ready to pick up around round 7 with an up-down trade for under $600k. Or...

    His BE is only 25, so he should be making money when he does return.

    Round 4 Trades

    No Grima in sight so I think I'll hold. I don't have anyone else to really trade out so best to hold fire. Hopefully Brown scores an 80 this week to boost his cash for the next couple of weeks. McCarthy out a surprise. Hopefully just a guy who hasn't played many games yet having his gametime...

    Round 4 Trades

    My trade so far is Gresham to Lyons with Kerridge swinging up to M8. If Grima gets named alongside Hartley I might go Brown to Hartley. Otherwise will hold.

    Round 4 Trades

    Davis is playing as a medium-sized forward. He's does seem to be contributing in that role, but is not a lock to stay. Wright was BOG in the reserves last week and may put pressure on him. Miller needs to come back in this week. There's also Garlett as well. His DE% is the worst in the team...

    Round 4 Trades

    De Goey has a long way to go to be a keeper. None of his scores have been in the range you could call a keeper in the forward line, let alone averaging that much. Sidey coming back may affect his scoring too. Lonergan looks like he will average more and being a defender doesn't have to do as...

    Round 4 Trades

    JJ killed it early then the Hawks sent someone to him (?Langford) and he disappeared. That's the worry for me with JJ, until Bont hits top form he's perhaps the most damaging guy currently and a target for attention. Also he probably won't maintain his scoring after round 7 when he stops...

    Round 4 Trades

    Depends what your midfield bench is like. He's out for 2-3 weeks so if you can carry him then persist because there's not much to go to with only $41K. I don't think there's any must-have mid rookies you should go to. Maybe if you can swap and bring in a def or for rookie you missed but most...

    BE?

    www.footywire.com is my go-to for the BE's and other stats.

    Round 4 Trades

    Main issue for me is Mills at M8 with BCrouch, Menadue and Gresham on the bench. Think I might drop Gresham due to poor JS and probably won't make much cash even when he does play. Move Lonergan to M8 and then bring in a defence rookie. Menadue I'll persist with hoping for a big game in the...

    Rucks 2016

    Smith looked great early but did disappear in the 2nd half. Stanley did most of the ruck work and Smith spent a lot of time forward which hos heat map confirms. Interesting to see what happens going forward.

    Rucks 2016

    Hickey had a great game, but he only had Lobbe to contend with. Won't be the only to tear him a new one this year. As for NicNat, not surprised to see him score well against Martin who isn't that great in the ruck contests. I'd wait and see what he does against the Hawks this week.
