2018 Rookies

If you have trades to burn then Freeman could make you $80k to help fund final/luxury upgrades

But it’s hard to see him as relevant for most

Even if he played this week, and the next two, it's AFTER round 19 before his price starts to change. Round 20 we're into the SC finals. Most people are either out of trades by then or only have one or two "break glass in case of emergency" trades left. To complete teams they would be better off trading in a $102k donut. At least it saves them $20k. From a SC perspective it would be much better if he didn't play at all this year now.

We are in furious agreement

Are any of these rookie jerks gonna stick around long enough to provide a modicum of bench cover? Narkle, Sier, Lynch?

I think all 3 mentioned will

Lynch yes
Narkle maybe
Sier i hope but doubt.

 

[big_bazza]

Murphy yes
Narkle maybe
Sier i hope but doubt.

Lynch from the dogs is also looking gravy af, i brought him after only 1 game and he repaid the faith. Also brought in Sier on his debut week and he did his thing.

Also i thought Freeman was meant to play for the saints tonight, or did i read it wrong and he was back in the vfl after injury?

 

[SC fish]

Sier i hope but doubt.

Hopefully Sier keeps getting games, I'm bringing him in today

 

[toxic]

Fasolo, Aish, Elliot all back playing

I love the bear so hope he keeps playing too

Darcy Cameron. 28 disposals, 43 hitouts, 10 marks, 5 tackles, 3 goals and 181 DT. Not even named in the best!!!! Clearly they don't rate him. Obviously I didn't see the game but on those stats alone, to not even be named in the 6 best players in the team, is somewhat astonishing.

They have lost the plot.

Longmire onviously did the votes.

Something about this reminds me of the Nank > Tigers move, could be a good pick up for a team looking for a backup/project ruck

4th best had 10 disposals, 5 tackles, no goals... Gotta just be a typo...

 

[Art Vandelay_]

Apologies if it comes true peeps. Nothing worse than losing a rookie for next season.

 

[Faz 2000]

I can't see any rookies worth a look this week - can anyone else? Is it time for a dirt-cheap floating zero? Any good suggestions on that?

 

[WaynesWorld19]

 

[TheBeardAmigos]

the fact that the photo they chose to use was at quarter time, does that mean that he carked it during the 2nd qtr?

They had to take the photo early, in case he broke down in the 2nd half .....but he's most likely to get a gig next week, under the "mercy" rule

37 posessions

Zero tackles

Who knows what Richo will do

Even I got zero tackles against Box Hill. Probably not up to AFL scratch if I can match him IMO.

 

[DaveyBoy123]

Ahern making a late run for rookie of the year. If only Brad Scott didn't have this strange selection policy where he always plays rookies 8 weeks after they deserve to (see also; Will Walker, who debuted today).

 

[DrummoSolo]

A fun fact - Jack Petrucelle's price actually went backwards from a starting point of 117k this week, dropping to 113k.

Surely wouldn't be many players in SC history going backwards from the standard rookie floor price.

Yeah I doubt it. Relton Roberts never got that chance.

Not quite backwards (has made 10k) but still a chance for LDU to finish up cheaper than his starting price if he plays another game or two.
