Strategy 2023 Bye Round Strategy

[Maybe Tomorrow]

Assuming I choose to keep Sicily. Im looking at:
13 premo’s
Humpa (14)
Johnson (15)
Ford (16)
Sturt (17)
Assuming O’Donnell gets dropped, so have to hope Harry Sharp comes in for McCluggage for 18 this week. Grim

I've just had a read through the Freo board and lots are calling for him to get dropped. Fingers crossed he plays and kicks a few goals to stay in the week after.

I thought this was meant to be the hardest week of the byes?
And no, I don’t plan for the byes at all, never have. Too much other shit goes down and ruins plans anyway.
Won every week of the byes in my cash league and should win this week as well.
Gotta love dumb luck!

Haha!
Would if I could.
Just haven’t found the right scenario to use them yet.

I should have 13 premos locked in. Then there's:

• "test" Oliver (14)
• Steele, or whoever I trade him to (15)
• Fyfe (16)
• Johnson (17)
• Potential rookie downgrade to fund the Steele upgrade, eg. Ford/Angwin to rookie (18)
• Mullin/Chesser/McAndrew, one might play (19)

So should have 18 or 19 players

Last week was meant to be a strong bye week for me, but due to so many players doing a giant turd on my team and popular players I don’t own going tropical my ranking suffered. I had 20 players last week and getting outscored be teams with 18 is super annoying.

This week should be another strong week, but it all comes down to how the players perform.

I had the same issue last year, players the bed in my strong weeks.

 

[Scythe]

Pending teams, I'll have 15 premos this week, with three of Melican, Johnson, Maric and Chesser filling out the remaining slots.

Sidelined this week: Bont, English, Sheezel, Rozee, Green, Cogs and Taranto.

Same amount of premos missing as last week, but in a bit better shape this time around.

 

[Makeshift Park]

So long as we include Sheeze, Day and Humpa as premos (lol), I too have 15.

Plus Johnson and 2 rookies that I will decide on after teams are named.

 

[PoopingHindi]

reasonably happy

 

[jdwood]

2038.25 (carrying Clarry)

Only moved up 50 odd spots (though on the cusp of top 250)

 

[JuddgementDay]

Started the year so badly from 81K

Over the bye rounds, averaged 2,015 and halved my rankings

From 30K to 15K - so a happy panda here

We are ranked very similarly (100 difference) so am keen to see where you finish up.
