Traded CEY last week.

But come on down Rocky, see ya later Vandenberg.

What are people's thoughts on Jake Lever's scoring potential and JS? He'll be a popular downgrade from McIntosh.

JS is enhanced with Jaensch out for the year, hearing whoever it was from the crows that was on triple M earlier in the week they rated him highly in so many ways. It sounds like they have long term plans for him.

Vandenberg < Rockliff

N.Brown < Lever

Will never, ever see Rockliff that cheap again.

Rocky still isn't 100% though, his own words. Probably won't smash his break even this week.

Risk vs. Reward. If he does get back to last years form- thank you very much, especially at that price.

A risk that must be taken IMO.

Agree with this!! Ill be taking him.

Anyone looking at young Templeton from the Saints? Reasonably cheap & from memory went well last year before snapping his arm for a rookie?
If you can keep your head when all around you have lost theirs, then you probably haven't understood the seriousness of the situation.

Lever in for Smith. I can see Smith's price dropping more and Lever's price going up. I still have faith in Smith though so later on Lever out for Smith. :)

I reckon he has good JS but will be very inconsistent, just like just about every other Defender this season.

Rockliff's break even is 80 which I expect him to get this week. I think he has bottomed out. At his current price you just want him to get his average up to 115 again so he can be a solid Mid keeper with the possibility of smashing it late. You probably could afford to bring in Rocky next week. Footwire says his price next week will be $440k with the possibility he could drop to as low as $392k. However, this is based on his 3 round rolling average and season average both of which are below 70. I believe that Rockliff will score 85-100 this week which would mean a slight price rise. One week to wait is OK, but if you are keen on Rocky you wouldn't want to wait two or three weeks or you'll be losing cash to upgrade other players that your opponents will get. I don't think it's essential to get Rocky in this week, either way you can be greedy for coin next week or points this week.

One thing is for sure, he's going to be as common as a white commodore soon. The POD factor is not in his selection, but who you trade out and when (and for how much) you trade Rocky in.

Lock down role imminent I'd say. 60 Average. Similar scoring patterns to McIntosh.
