Game Day 2023 Round 8 Discussion - where are our Rookies ?

[Caztheconquerer]

Are you related to Judd_Magic ?

What about another Rookie, who is destined to play soon & maybe make more cash than Caminitti .......Fahey or a Wardlaw

I traded caminitti out this week so it’s not costing a trade to bring him back in I’m just reversing the original trade, think I worded it poorly.

Surely Baker is a better chance of scoring 80 than 20 tho?

I thought the same of Ginbey last week. Take out the 95 from Baker and it doesn’t look like I’ll lose many points from it.

 

[SELFCONFESDAFLNERD]

Ginbey or take Cincotta's 70? Im somewhat tempted to play Ginbey in case one of my defenders is a late out

 

[Maybe Tomorrow]

That's fair. Anderson should be a decent pick with Touk out.

Yeah I think he goes 105-110 this season. great bye too. I'd rather Oliver but as I said, I'm betting having a team full premo and getting the byes right will be more benefit than Oliver.

 

[King Max]

Field Ginbey, or take Wilmot’s 50?

I’d field Ginbey who has punched out a tonne before.

Bird in the hand .....take Cincotta's 70

Im really conflicted. I've talked myself in and out of it multiple times. If there was no chance of a late withdrawal i would take the 70. There is no reason to suggest any of my players will be a late withdrawal though so i should probably take it!

Look at Ginbey's recent scoring patterns ....and the fact WCE are playing in MELB

You make a good argument. If there is a late out ill be pissed but i think that is unlikely. I half want to bench Ginbey because applying Murphys Law suggests that he will beat Cincotta's 70 and if so may restart his cash generation. Or maybe that is a silly hope haha

No Laird or LDU?

I have Laird but Cincotta was my backline EMG

Think you should definitely take Cincotta's 70, I am tempted to even take Wilmot's 50 over fielding Ginbey, and also for the exact same reason as you I know if I bench him he will go good. Not sure who is in your defense who is gonna be a late out outside of maybe Ziebull?

Unless you have JZ in the backline and cant move him fwd take the 70

 

[Silky23]

2/219

Taranto VC, Hopper, Ryan
Dawson, Laird, Stewart, loop Simpson
Green, Kelly, Timmy C, Bont
Sicily, Mitchell (risking over Wilmot’s 50)

 

[Caztheconquerer]

Not having Taranto sucks, can’t wait for him to punish me again this week with another 140+ score

Looks like I'm playing you in Roobies league - about time I'll notch up a win

It will be close, but your downfall is not getting in Piggy!

 

[JuddgementDay]

Weird round SC wise for me.

ZZZZ - I don't have any players until the Melb game

 

[Caztheconquerer]

So tempted to say **** the round 15 bye and just get Taranto over steele this week.

 

[Raveneyes]

Michalanney (possible farewell match)
Pedlar

Oliver (VC)
Gawn

Day

Coniglio
Green
Bontempelli (C if required)

What is the weather like in Melbourne at the moment?

Need to decide which one to field out of Samson, JVR and Mitchell.

I am thinking Samson but if the weather is wet he might not be able to clunk a few marks and kick some goals.

Wet and miserable
Heavy rain this morning, a bit of calm now, but it's going to get worse as the day progress

 

[Scythe94]

No Chesser

 

[NinjaSwan]

Taranto (C), Hopper

Laird Pedlar (E loop w JVR)
Stewart


I don’t love having Taranto captain but I don’t really have many of the good choices.
