Position 2025 Rucks

[Northernsoul74]

Cheap ruck who could be run through the flex and make 100-150K, but with some JS risk

Has Cats this week if he punches out a 90 his BE should be -85 or so

Any inducation he’s now number 1 ruck would mean he needs to be seriously considered.

Sweet was dropped for him, so there's that. Would expect he plays until the bye then I guess form dependent, plus if his body holds up as he's only 22

Thoughts on Visentini, seemed to compete pretty well against ROB...

With cash gen a problem I'm so tempted to trade him in for TDK...
These things rarely pan out well I know all too well, but it can get 2 more rookies off the field.

Better off upgrading 2 rookies and using him in the flex as a stepping stone

Marshall had been Flexing for a couple of weeks now which both limits options, but lowers risk.
Also, I can't upgrade 2 rookies without the injection of cash the downgrade supplies.
(I'm definitely not trading out Marshall before a date with the two muppets in Perth).

If he becomes to hard to ignore could be a problem;

I have those exact 9 except for Daniel in for Hewett.

Although I play Xerri in ruck and TDK in flex as I think big Xerri deserves the ruck spot with big Max.

If you already have 3 premo rucks then shorting your least preferred makes a lot of sense and I stand corrected

Have the same view

I’ve had Gawn, Xerri and TDK

This round, I’ve downgraded TDK which it has meant I’ve been able to upgrade Cleary and Bice to Sinclair and Touk.

Although I don’t really want to trade out TDK, I’m happy to do so to get 2 rookies off.

Who are you trading down to?

I had both TDK and Boyd.

Traded TDK > Flynn weeks ago, and traded Boyd > Fort last week when I saw he'd cover Sam Days 6 week injury (make some coin).

No doubt Flynn > Visentini next week, but mindful of needing an R/F at some point to facilitate flexibility..

im looking at bringing sims in on fwd bench for the exact same reason . flynn (r3) to Vista , then once he's moo'ed a bit out for a premo and sims into r3

i also moved TDK on from flex this week like JPod_31 leaving Gawn and X as rucks

Id still play Flynn and Vis at Flex.
I get you want flexibility, but it's a lot of money and scoring power sitting there doing nothing. I suppose it's offset by the bye rounds, but Vis is only covering Gawn provided he gets through his bye. Great shout!

i sold TDK from flex this week so dont have a ruck there anymore,

bringing in sims allows me to move flynn/vis on when he/they're maxed to any position on the ground
(flynns been my r3 since bringing him in , as i had TDK already at flex)

At the moment, it’s Saad El-Hawli pending teams. So El-Hawli is my new flex. Which I am fine with as long as he plays a full game

Plan is if Visentini does well this week and is solo ruck the following week, I’ll take a punt on him and he’ll be my flex. It’d be Kako to him.

Could do Visentini this week, but I rather have another look at him.

I'm running Gawn, Xerri, and Marshall ...having RUCK coverage in the back half of the season, when trades are scarce is important IMO

This is sensible.

Also when you think about it Flex is coverage for the back half of the season and it doesn’t have to be a ruck.

 

[St Steady]

im thinking buying jackson in R14 to forwards/flex and sims who i brought in this week to r3

so over the next 3-5 weeks ill have moved on TDK (this week from flex) , Flynn then Vis from R3

had the ruck in flex all yr and this seems my best way of changing that up and making money with cover across the byes as a bonus

 

[MrChristo]

Fwiw, I've gone off the Visentini idea.

I mean, the idea itself definitely has merits, but just one single price rise in 3 weeks doesn't make sense at this point.

Well done to those of you who have Gawn, X and Marshall atm. It was my plan all along, but I didn't jump when I had the chance and now I've almost definitely been priced out.
Still planning to go Marshall to X for his date with WC, but it's going to cost $200k+ at this rate.

 

[St Steady]

vis played well in his cameo's last yr

if he gets close to ton'ing up this week , he's a better inclusion than all the other rooks on the bubble and gives an instant sugar hit , unlike kako for example who we've sat on for 9 weeks for FOS like wealth creation

 

[54Dogs]

TDK messy now, if he looks like missing 2 he's missing the next 3. Need more intel

 

[King Max]

TDK to Marshall?
If TDK is out for one this is annoying. 2 games plus bye a maybe yes.
Problem I have is TDK run after his bye. Ess, WCE, Nth and Port.
3/4 he will go massive

I think one problem is Pitto. If he does well tonight Vossy might not drop him next week.
