Think all roads lead to G&G.
Flynn at R3 not ideal, but a potential money-spinner if they can't / don't bring the mummy back to life or the league bans zimmer frames.
Like ROB as a potential challenger, but not really sure that's the zone for zigging where everyone else will be zagging. There are probably smarter risks.
Nank the value option but awkward, will need a trade at some stage.
Flynn at R2 a toxic special, who dares wins

And just so we're clear, any campaigners mocking and ridiculing the consensus 
, aka Smackdog Millionaire, aka Shauny 'Uncle SmackSmack' McKernan, feel free to step outside your safe spaces and into a world of hurt.
Bunch of tall poppie syndrome having mother*ers.

My recent teams had all seen Gawndy in the ruck as memories of last year's disastrous revolving door R2 position made me more and more reluctant to risk Preuss. Now he's injured and any temptation to take that risk is moot. I still feel Gawn's overpriced, but in the absence of Preuss there simply isn't a cheaper option with an upside that makes it worth replacing him.

What's G&G loopability via Treacy like?
Assuming you'd give up a lot of flexibility with Flynn at R3, doesn't seem ideal.

Reckon it depends who plays. If Flynn named for round one then him at R3. Put Treacy at F8 and if he is also named then bring in a 102k spud defender. If neither then Treacy at R3.

Have Treacy at F8 ATM no real F rookies interested me other than MacRea and Smith who I already have on the mids bench also with no Marshall no real reason to have Treacy at R3

I've never been a fan of deliberately picking someone to act as the VC loophole player. Chances are we'll all pick enough spuds who end up missing games anyway without deliberately adding another one into the mix.

But you have to look on the bright side that for the first few rounds you have 29 playing. Chances are slim but miracles do happen.

If such an unprecedented miracle occurs I'm already winning the 50k with or without the VC loophole

I'm starting with 29 playing even if that means having 0 rookies on-field. And should one or two of my bench rookies be dropped I will use 1-2 corrective rookie trades to replace them. Can't afford to have the same farcical situation as last year playing with practically no bench cover for much of it.

Think he’s injured. Never seems to be fit.

Treacy is a chance to play round 1 so he’s not really a loophole player

Hard to see a rookie drafted 18 year old ruck playing over Lloyd Meek, somebody whose been in the system for a few years and is also having a great preseason.
Has an 18 year old ruck every played a game? I highly doubt it. Locked in as RUCK/FWD DPP donut for the year

If Treacy is selected for Rd1 it will be as a KPF as a replacement for Tabs. If Meek is selected it will be as a replacement for Darcy.

Meek and Flynn both being selected for round 1 would be funny, then we can all try to pick the right one. (Or blow a trade swapping R3)

I feel Flynn plays more Fremantle still have Darcy and Lobb there’s also Fullarton at the Lions

I agree ... we may have a playing R3 Rookie ... that IMO takes precedence over Treacy, who may not be required as a loop for Marshall till round 4

Ooooooh right, my bad. Still can't see it, just play Fyfe and Mundy as forwards, Cerra/Brayshaw/Serong will be fine in the middle
Why has no one said In like Flynn yet
