Position 2022 Rookies

Went early on Buku last week and need to take one of Rory Thompson or Luke Cleary this week to free up cash. None of the three players mentioned will be on field (D7, D8).

Weighing up apparent job security (Thompson) vs scoring potential (Cleary), etc. Obviously Thompson is on the bubble and Cleary is not.

Thompson. Going early on Buku was a risk, doing it again with Cleary would be silly.

If in doubt take the bubble boy.

Off topic - your avatar is my favourite cricket pic of all time.

Cheers. Yeah, it's pretty hard to beat that one.

We need r12 rookies to debut this week if we want them on the bubble r13 after their bye.
1 would be amazing.

I want a rd13 or 14 bye forward rookie to debut this week
On the bubble in rd12
Durdin to this rookie, cash in, every score in rd12

A r13 bye ruck rookie to cash in Hayes too would be the best I reckon.

If we don't get Comben, I reckon we're done for rucks this year

Looks like his knee is screwed but, so doubt we'll see him any time soon

Do we know what is up at all with Violin? He isn't listed as injured or ill?

I want him to wait until r12 for a return please.

His knee isn't screwed. He'll play pretty soon, IMO.

Charlie Comben missed the clash with Casey due to a persisting knee issue but continues to train. His strong bank of performances at reserve level could see him come in and provide another strong marking target alongside Nick Larkey

 

[Dundalis]

Who has the better JS between Cleary and Khamis? Only likely to bring in one.

 

[Rioli2Rioli]

Considering going early on Hollands , Need to cash in Martin for upgrades next week

thoughts ?

Probably not a good idea. After the byes yes

Khamis.

 

[Golden_6]

Khamis, competing just with JUH. It's likely Cleary will be dropped for Duryea (illness) next week given O'Brien's inclusion this week.

 

[Libbaaaa]

Cleary just needs to show enough and he'll hold his spot, you really need to be awful to be dropped by Bevo as a rookie. Ed Richards

playing the Duryea role beautifully this year.

FWIW the channel 7 commentators were impressed with him last week.

That's probably a bad sign.

Can't remember who it was, but I heard somebody talking up Cooper Hamilton as being a solid performer in a poor performing side

Definitely a bad sign lol

Regret trading out richards after the first month, but he just looked supremely average when i watched him. Kudos to those who held.

If you take AFL commentators for any indicator outside of level of AFL group think or senility, then you're overreaching

Same, I moved him on for Bowey who became Zorko last week so not a big loss but would have been good to back myself in.

I did the same sequence of trades, except brought zorko in a month ago haha.

The loss there is one trade, not huge but potentially significant
