AFLW 2025 AFLW Round 7 fantasy trades and discussion (AND ROLLING TEAM)

[samFFC]

Maybe Stone to Zanker (hopefully scores well against Gold Coast) and Boyd to Lucas-Rodd.

Nice one, thanks!

Have gone with Howley downgrade on bench

Bogue to Zanker
Just enough to do Boyd to Goodwin.

 

[GrantSpatchcock]

Dunlop lives? the heck?

 

[Shaunn]

Dunlop lives? the heck?

Jinxed gg

 

[Barrybran]

Dunlop lives? the heck?

Nearly at her breakeven already

 

[GrantSpatchcock]

Damn. I wanted to trade in Besanko or Fleur Davies to use as a loop in case VC Garner did really well, and now both of them have been named.

I guess Davies doesn't play anyway. She's the last listed. I'll trade her in. She's my C if Garner pops out 150.

Sorry I somehow missed this with the new page.

I fully expect Davies will play, I thought she would last week and I'm near certain this week. It's a funky bench, Cambo can't be taking hitouts now, she's far too important, we need the tall especially against WC.

 

[Vacuous Space]

Is Dunlop injured?

Edit: Back on now. HIA? She spent ~20 mins of game time on the bench.

 

[GrantSpatchcock]

Is Dunlop injured?

Nup, back out now. Just a 20 minute kip on the bench it seems.

Dunlop was probably very tired after that relentless scoring pace.

 

[dplggr47]

Dunlop is such a useless ruck. Other than the ruck contest, she jogs around trying to get to the next contest to compete, but is either too slow to reach it or when she does, she doesn't do much.

I've watched a few Geelong games this season and I've barely noticed her at all. There are some rookies that you're sorry to see go when you trade them out, I doubt Dunlop will be one of them. She's probably one of the two rooks I'll drop to get Bacon up next week. No idea who I'll get in since TLR will be out of reach.

Tilly tonne!

I think her to red dot might be the play next week. She's not great to watch. On another note, Lucy Wales was very impressive. Was everywhere. Actually made it to the contests, would push back to help defence, tackle, mark and very mobile.

I think her to red dot might be the play next week.

Fair chance of that, I reckon. The only $300K rucks, though, are for Geelong and Melbourne. Hose is the only one I'm aware of confirmed out for the season. Just looking at their runs:

Melbourne
R8: Friday. Bowers the only VC option
R9: Last game. Everyone except Bowers a VC option
R10: Early Saturday. Players from Geelong, Hawtorn, Port and West Coast options, none of which are interesting to me.
R11: Late Saturday. Noffy, Gardiner and Bowers all options.

Geelong
R8: Second-last game. Most relvant players are VC options.
R9: Second game on Saturday. Noffy a VC option as long as you can do you VC stuff in between games.
R10: Second Friday game. Same problem as Melbourne, essentially.
R11: Early Sunday. Only really the North girls of the top options not available as VC options.

R12 they play each other and there's a decent chance it will be early in the round, I'd say.

Neither Bragg nor Tipping appear to be on the injury list. I have some concern that one of them might get a game at any point.

On another note, Lucy Wales was very impressive. Was everywhere. Actually made it to the contests, would push back to help defence, tackle, mark and very mobile.

My big concern with Lucy was she doesn't have overwhelming size and she's never been a big hitout winner. She's going to be pretty close to 50% win rate after tonight's game. I also wasn't sure she had the big score potential and she's gone 120+ two weeks in a row. You'd be pretty happy with her if you started her over Strom.

I'd still be leaning toward starting Strom next year, but it's a lot closer this year. Strom, Scholz, either Wales twin and Morphett all feel like viable options.

 

[Saints2001]

Sigh was in a rush to do my team before leaving work yesterday and completely cocked up my red dot...totally forgot how it worked and brought in Grace Baba for Grieves.

She's already locked out on my bench mid spot lol.

I'm an idiot...

Anyway other trades - Paxy out for Goodwin and Toogood out for Barnett. I'm hoping Boyd and Bogue find their form again - still regretting trading out O'Shea.

Window back in might impact Woodland too.

Bench is stuffed now Grieves is gone, I've got Strom, Clarke, Dunlop (all held from R1) and Lauren Young.

 

[JADED]

Georgie Prespakis.
Priced at 100, AVG 100, break even 100.
Played 6 games, total points 600.

Round 7 score.. 100.

You could set your watch to consistency like that.

I had considered trading her out a couple of weeks ago but when I looked at my team as a whole, I liked what she had done to date and kept her. I'll be very happy finishing with her as my M5.

 

[JADED]

1 trade left.
Figure Havana Harris to Matilda Scholz is a better upgrade than,
Boyd to Goodwin.

Hoping Boyds score last week was just first week back after missing 2 games / reduced TOG affected.

Getting Scholz and Centra back after starting them both.

I was two minutes away from running with TLR as a straight C last night because I'd forgot about the Thursday night game with work.

I was two minutes away from running with TLR as a straight C last night because I'd forgot about the Thursday night game with work.

I was minutes away from benching Rowbottom for Centra to just go out in a limb.

Thought Rowbottom might struggle against Melbourne even after last week's huge score, and the Dogs are leaking huge scores so Centra could tonne up again. Dees/Suns started at 12:35ACST and not 12:45 like I thought.
Sometimes these things save you, sometimes not.

Rigoni 20 @ ¼ time.
Can she have a "suns matchup" score?
I'd loop and 80.

 

[Shaunn]

Should've just gone Heath > TLR over Hore > Bowers this week...

 

[Vacuous Space]

Ebert has 8 points from two possessions with 100% TOG. That’s an impressive level of non-involvement.

Her getting to her BE of 48 seems unlikely.

Strom and Scholz will win more HO, but Wales is a very mobile ruck that can tackle, mark and run off her opponent. Or maybe Dunlop is just that slow and bad that made Wales look incredible. She's now the highest averaging ruck.

I considered Centra back, but too expensive for bench move and couldn't afford it.

 

[GrantSpatchcock]

Oh come off it. I thought I could forget about defence.

 

[Shaunn]

How does Heath score nothing for the first 14 minutes every quarter... this quarter 0.. useless

 

[Vacuous Space]

Only a 4 point quarter for McLaughlin. Most people up the top have her, though.

The two people in the top-100 that have Chaplin are going to be pretty pleased with themselves.
