How though? - that's Melb's Achilles heel, their forward line. He stood Melksham, who kicked 1.1. Taylor had 94% TOG and received 2 Frees, gave none away. No Marks. Sounds like it was a strategy to move him away from the contest - with the end result within 2pts. Same coach, same strategy? To be fair, Taylor had been out the previous 5 weeks after a ruptured nacker

Dropped a 59 & 70 the previous 2. I think he will be ok. Melksham is an annoying campaigner though so I'm impressed Taylor didn't end up on 23 with 4 x FA

Saw that. Don't know how to feel about that? Less junk but they obviously rate the kid

Between this and SDK unknowns, I am leaning more and more towards the S.Taylor cash grab and wait/see on these two.

Personally think the Taylor play is quite low risk and a bit of a no brainer really.

Pretty much guaranteed around 100k price rise, has the bye next week so even if he totally spuds it you have a couple of weeks to trade out before he will lose any cash.

And it's best 18 for the following 3 weeks after Rd 1 so if you do keep (or get stuck) with him and he puts up a 30 his score won't count anyway

Yeah I honestly love the Taylor pick. Watching the game as well he was still obviously that KD but was spreading for +6’s which we haven’t really seen in his game before. It’s definitely low risk and can always sideways the trade if it doesn’t work (after a guaranteed price rise) or hide behind best 18 for the early bye rounds.

 

[Gold_Cat]

6.8% own him. I'm worried about a Jordon tag, though if a midfielder goes off, Jordon normally switches onto them.

I"m genuinely considering it. Has a dream run until the bye and looks set to continue in the same role. Could go seriously big and be a great POD captain option especially as everyone will go Xerri. if he goes down injured, should be pretty easy to switch to NWM or Sheezel.

but was spreading for +6’s

Which is great while we own but once I trade him I wish he'd **** off and let Stone have them

Hopefully he gets the message

 

[bettingonbetts]

Another interesting stat about Taylor was his consistently throughout the game. Each quarter he consistently scored over 25, it’s not like one quarter he knocked out a 60 and scored 15’s in his other quarters.

 

[perplexed]

If everyone is so keen so Taylor (I am too), why not also go Ash instead of Perryman? Neither are keepers, but Ash has the better early bye. Why not take the Ash cash?

Im going Ash over Perryman, but I can see anyone who thinks Ash is a 1 week play passing on him.
If they have their mind set on trading out Taylor and Ash after round 1 they may prefer to look elsewhere

Imo Ash is enough value to chase the $$

Why would you trade either after round 1? Won't their round 0 scores push up their price for a few more weeks after that? It isn't as though you will need to trade them out to get 18 on field.

If Taylor goes 51 next week(his priced at) he will gain roughly 95k after round 1, priced at about 60.
If he goes 51 again the week after his bye he will only gain about 15.
Just makes sense to dump Taylor there, he wont go more than 60 for the year IMO

Ash is in a similar situation, but at least he's fieldable after the early byes if you had to, he will be priced at 84ish after round 1 if he goes 80 this week

Anyone considering fielding rookies at D5 & D6?

I'm strongly considering given it's best 18 until round 4 (excluding round 1) so risk is mitigated= and now we have Trainor has another confirmed debutant. Positive words from B Scott about Prior and Essendon averages the most marks so there's a world Reid & Prior could average 60-70+

The question is the rookies sitting on the bench
I don’t think we are too confident going forward with Leake and O’Connell we won’t find out til Sunday if he’s sub (that’s if he’s even named)

 

[FlowersByIrene]

It says that on the website now also.

Do these feel accurate? Potentially so if they're evidence of the total price change that would occur with next score.

 

[FlowersByIrene]

I.e they don't feel like what their BE's would be if they had price changes, that is Sam Taylor's BE would not be -51 if he score 118, went up 50k and then was going into next week, -2 feels more right in that respect. But feels right if that is a new 'combined' BE across the two games.

 

[Exambolor]

Just a Taylor warning, Pies were hacking the ball and did nothing to stop him, so he was crumbing everything

Even if he went -51 this week, thatd still be 67 total, or 33.5 per week.

It doesnt seem to line up with anything

Good thing hes against the Dees this week who are known ball hackers - especially with Clarry back to fitness
