People will still trade to a point where the risk of donuts is high enough. If you want to system guard against injuries then a variation of the EPL Fantasy system of getting one trade every week through to the last round would be good.

Yeah it's not too bad mate.
Set up nicely.
In the end it's a marathon not a sprint!

They should add in a team reset, triple captain, bench boost and stuff like on EPL fantasy.

I believe the Herald Sun has ruined its own game, all the articles they write and post has taken the ‘researched’ advantage out of it. It’s now as simple as reading their articles and your team will be ok. A bit of luck with a POD and you’ll be top 1000. People lose interest when all the effort you put in can be overshadowed by a colleague with no clue but a $25 a month subscription haha
Should be able to use a bench players score if one of your players on the ground go down before half time.

Well I missed out on 209 points from playing the wrong rookies and captain.
Add Libbas 13 and all is not lost.
At least I can spend the week reminding you all that .3% of us have Hurn as a delicious tonne scoring POD and that none of you campaigners are one of them.

I counter that by saying if disaster strikes early and it does for a lot of us.....being so far behind the 8 ball will make you lose interest a lot faster and abandon your team earlier. Even if you don't have trades by say rnd 15 but your team is still pretty good you might still ride it out and see what happens.
I cant tell you how many times an extra trade per week if some weeks would have made a huge difference for me. That extra correctional trade before a price change for example, 2 is just far too low when the carnage hits.

I'm just happy that my mid priced madness strategy (Challenge Accepted!) didnt crash and burn in week one and just about all my rookie picks hit paydirt.
Ive mapped this out and there's a big payoff if I can somehow make it work through to byes.
Good luck mate, will be following your team with interest.
Byes are always tricky and I never look forward to those.

Exactly my thoughts. The 2 trades is exactly that, punishing. Luck will always be a part of the game fair enough but right now if you have one really bad week you are fighting with one arm tied behind your back.
Last year I lost 3 premos in one of the earlier rounds and on top of that missed out of a rookie on the bubble, which just then snowballs a bit.

Imagine I could have used Kelly in place of Zerrett this week with a function like that.

Didn't make it to 2400 but got in the top 5k.
Kelly on the bench sucks but can't win them all. All of my other rookie selections were on point but it's all a shit show round 1.

2,451.. Could have pushed high 2500's with some better rookie decisions (played Naughton over Finlayson, Brayshaw over Holman) and Mitchell as captain..
Just happy to have dodged most of the bullets so far..

That's a whole different problem.
He will come good.
Another 33 and he has to go.
So probably next week

Screenshot taken before any changes.
Only change will be putting the E on Holman instead of Barry. No trades this week.
I'm very annoyed I forgot to trade out Cameron for English and I had until today to do it as well. Is it worth doing now? Will English continue to get games and make money?
Or even just have your top 22 scores automatically count. Would be way less frustrating re injuries and rookie lotto.
Team for this week.
Doedee and Holman on the ground for Naughton and Brayshaw.
Traded out Ryan > English so I can have 2 correctional trades for next week.
$34,800 in the kitty.
