Am I crazy to be considering Tim Kelly as a Nic Martin replacement?

I had no idea he had FWD status, and is currently priced at $529k.
Could be back in the CBAs this week

Even 85 from him would be a win considering the dumpster fire that is the FWD line.

Crazy? Or so crazy it might just work?
You are crazy


But id consider it as a yolo play if I had given up on getting a good ranking or winning my league.
He probably gets 75 avg max based on his form this year
 
Xerri out means i more than likely lock in these, simple trades this week for me:

Rozee will be covered by McCarthy, my next best bench option to cover any Naicos rest shenanigans will be Z.Johnson, so fingers crossed no more carnage

Steer clear. If he’s back in the seniors this week I’ll be fuming.
 
With X's ban upheld, I'm jumping on the train and getting the ruck pig in with his matchup this week and his run ahead for sure. Have to sacrifice McCarthy early but I think this is a rare exception where it's worth the punt. (No Martin or Rozee to deal with)

Considered English but have four Dogs players already, five would be pushing it

McCarthy to Heath via the Flying Viking to defence bench
X to Grundy

93k for next week
 
Leaning towards option 1

1
Xerri and Martin to Grundy and Rankine (McCarthy cover for Rozee)

2
Xerri and Martin to Meek and Miers (McCarthy cover for Rozee)

3
Xerri and Rozee to Whitfield and Grundy (May cover for Martin)
Would definitely throw out option 2
I am not a fan of trading Rozee. He will definitely be back and you can use McCarthy as a loop this week vs Rich.

It’s gotta be option 1 in this situation

Edit: unless I missed something - is Rozee missing more than one?

Rozee listed as test, probably just 1 week.

Most of the time players dont even miss 1 week with a dislocated finger
 
I am definitely worried about going against the ruck pig and bringing in Gawn but Grundy is sitting at a ridiculous price… I’m aware he will probably pop a 180 on me this week.
Gawn is cheaper and comes into a green mile and we know what he does when he plays easy teams..

I’m at a point where I do not want to be bringing in player I don’t want. I wanted Whit this whole week so I’m definitely not bringing in someone else to be able to afford Grundy.

Pending no injuries etc, I’ll be able to get Steele next week from Dale (even though he’s playing bombers) and the two weeks after should be able to bring in a 23rd and 24th premium (hoping Kennedy and perhaps a Dunks). Bench will be super dry after that though

Rankine might have a fire in his belly going up against his old side. Debating between him and Miers, think you might have just sold me on Rankine.

Don’t think we can trade a top 2 backline player if he’s missing a week, even to be aggressive. We have seen the carnage and it’s a possibility we won’t even get him back…
People are just unfortunately going to have to miss out on Grundy by trading Martin

I’ve had Ranks for 10 weeks and damn he’s a tough watch, but atleast he’s consistent in a sense. I won’t be trading out any time soon, he will potentially make his way to my bench as a 23rd premium at some point.

His ceiling for me is around 95 AFL Fantasy Points. Is that worth including for $835k versus Miers who is priced at $975k?

Geelong have a nice run home and Miers (FWD) for me has the slightly higher ceiling especially as he spends large amounts of time in midfield.

Also going Gawn, which means a better fwd for trade 2, but looking at Gawns last 3 scores, he's surely due a pop score too. He doesn't stay down for long.

He's had a tough run of fixtures but should rebound after this week.

It's more the fact that Whitfield is a better in than Rankine that has me considering trading Rozee. But then again really don't want to be holding long term injuries like Martin, when who knows what carnage might occur this round.

Think option 1 is the safest, and I will pray for no carnage this week so I can go Mills to Whitfield next week (was the plan this week).
 
What about Meek for a one or two week play over Gawn? $100k less, averaging about 35 more over last three, and probably same price next week if it’s a fail

Problem i have noticed, you need to prepare to hold them long term when other carnage occurs and is a higher priority to trade. I thin Meek's fixture turns pretty hard, but could be wrong.

Which is a great question, anyone know which rucks have the best run through finals in DT.
