Opinion 2023 Player X vs Y vs Z

[BOMBERBLITZ]

Setterfield or Worpel?

Setterfield by the length...

 

[KMitchell009]

Hi Team,
finality?
Fyfe v Bruhn Tx

 

[Me Myself and I]

Anybody else making this decision at 5pm tonight when the teams are finalized?

Long vs Camaniti vs Sturt

Thoughts?

I'm leaning towards Long. Big praise on the young kid. Will be a very slow burn, but should play a lot, and might fluke a couple of goals and a solid score. The DPP helps too.

I'm taking Caminiti. The extra 20k allows me to get Sheezel.
With Membery now out for a few weeks as well as other Saints injuries, with some luck maybe he can get a run of games.

 

[KMitchell009]

Ridley looks too much of a risk in comparison with Daicos?

 

[Scythe94]

Setterfield or Worpel?

Both solid picks IMO, but Worpel has the slight edge in terms of scoring history, less role competition and is 38k cheaper – $350k is usually my absolute max for non-keeper midpricers, and Setterfield is right on the cusp of that bracket.

That being said, I don't think you can go particularly wrong with either if it gets a rookie off the field. Trust your gut

I think the talk of Daicos getting midfield time has scared a few off.

D3 is the only non-rookie position I'm unsure of .... Luke Ryan V Barrass V Ridley V Richards

Ryan not playing in the practice matches worries me, Barrass has to contend with the return of McGovern, Ridley was ordinary last year but may now have a coach who uses him properly and I have doubts that Richards can repeat his great late season form.
All opinions appreciated.

McGovern if you want to be risky. Ridley the best out of those 4.

 

[Maybe Tomorrow]

McGovern if you want to be risky. Ridley the best out of those 4.

McGovern is going to have some big scores this year, he'll be a busy boy.

Contract year too. Hard to trust him playing every game though.

I'm starting him.

Philipou +$7k ITB
vs
Chesser + $50k ITB

Neither on field.

 

[ForeverHardcore]

Philipou +$7k ITB
vs
Chesser + $50k ITB

Neither on field.

Assuming in the mids?
Do you have a dpp in the other 2 bench spots?
If so I’d go the one you don’t have

For eg if you have Davey already I’d go chesser for dpp flexibility purposes having the swing to both lines

If it’s just 1 I’d go chesser as I think that swing with constable and ginbey will be needed more so then the fwd/mid link early

 

[Scythe94]

Philipou +$7k ITB
vs
Chesser + $50k ITB

Neither on field.

I'd probably lean Chesser. Will spend more time around the ball, and the DEF/MID DPP is probably better considering the amount of rookies most have down back. But overall, it's pretty line-ball. I'd rather the option with the extra cash.

vs a Stormtrooper
Which one is more likely to hit a target?

Yeah in the mid's. Davy forward. Think I'd like tohave a bit of cash for corrections, rather than have to do a second trade to fund it.

Yeah think I'll go for the cash - lock in Philipou for 80+

I like the def/mid flexibility more for the start of the year mate I’d go chesser. I don’t think we’ll be needing rookie roulette as much up forward so having the bailout/option to move a constable (if he’s dropped) or we lose Cowan/McKenna/Wilmot to a dropping we have some more room to move

 

[Guardian Hawk]

Was feeling too thin in the forwards (with yuck looking rookies) after trading out McLean and Fyfe.

Option 1: Oliver, Ridley and Long (Greene on field) - 6K ITB
Option 2: Coniglio, Stewart and Constable (Baker on field) - 42K ITB

Setterfield by the length...

Says the Bombers fan

I like Worpel. Titch gone now and looked to be playing that role.

 

[Jiska]

I'm starting him.

Big call

Callaghan (On) + Camintini or Long (Off)

#2 for me. a top 3 defender, a top 6 forward, a better rookie, a better rookie on field and a little cash in the pocket

 

[jdwood]

There are a few nuances with rookie shuffles but boiling down to the following:

McKenna (D5) and Gulden (F4) v Daicos (D3) and Phillipou (F6)

Any takers?

McGovern if you want to be risky. Ridley the best out of those 4.

That's a bit too risky for me. Capable of big scores but his season average has been between 86 and 91 over each of the past 7 years. Very consistent, but a bit too low with so many higher scoring premo backs around.
