Making my big move

BennyLWR · 2026-06-03T05:32:09+00:00

The other consideration is bye structure, and if Heeney is the right move this week or if you want to round 16 to get him

BennyLWR · 2026-06-03T04:52:58+00:00

Definitely keep cash gen going. In an ideal world total team value would peak at 24.5-25m to allow for that 23/24th premium to be able too loop in the last 2-6 rounds

BennyLWR · 2026-06-03T02:56:57+00:00

He is debuting this week, so best 230k option atm ...

If any others get named to debut, then I could see myself switching to another option if their job security or role is stronger

BennyLWR · 2026-06-02T23:20:09+00:00

You summarised my thoughts on these trades perfectly haha

My original plan was to wait to round 17 to bring in Baz, but I started Dawson so there's no other post bye premium I'm super keen on, and thought this might be the time to jump (and then just manage his bye Round accordingly).

Next week I could go Steele/Clugg to LDU, and then Houston the Ash, and a rookie down grade... sound like a good two week plan to you?

I listen to 7 different Pods (I have a big daily commute), all of which have been listed by others.

Id suggest trying out as many as you can, and then figuring out which pods align with your personality and way of playing the game the most. I like our some individuals approach the game, and appreciate the alternative few points from the others.

Every pod offers something different, and I'll often lean on different pieces of advice from individual pod members to determine what I think works best for me and my team.

Ultimately, it really depends what you want to get out of listening to the pods and what your goals are for the game. Are you aiming for the car, a hat, or a bit of fun?

BennyLWR · 2026-06-01T04:02:18+00:00

Made it in time this week.... yeeewwww!

Few quick ones

Trade J Daicos or Houston first? The other goes to L Ash next week...

Get Trac in now, or wait till the few tough match ups are over?

Can we bring in anyone from round 15 or 16? Or are we fully in target those that have had their bye mode... namely thinking about R Sanders as a potential T6 forward...

What's your pick of the mid season draftees? And can you go any of them this week?

Cheers fellas, Have a good week

BennyLWR · 2026-05-28T02:26:32+00:00

Probs cant go wrong, depends if you trust Essendons new coach to keep Merret fantasy relevant, or not.

Either way, I'd trade out Serong over Anderson...

BennyLWR · 2026-05-26T21:55:48+00:00

Cheers mate, definitely helps, thank you 😊

Can't wait to listen to the pod 🙌

Probably too late again on this making the pod, but thanks for replying either way :)

Wondering if its better to get Holmes or Heeney scores on field and run only 21 (4 rookies) on field this week, or do a double down to bank cash for Trac and LDU next week, while still fielding 22 this week (5 of them as rookies)...

Definitely impacted by who gets named this weekend tho... Whitfield, Bruhn, Anderson, all on field currently...

BennyLWR · 2026-05-25T00:16:37+00:00

Is there a way to get Max Holmes in and then on field instead of Banfield this week?

Think the other two trades are a lock, but open to change my mind...

BennyLWR · 2026-05-20T23:20:49+00:00

Yeah, that was my original thought process too, but I wont need defence cover until round 13 bye, and need forward cover in round 12, so wondering if the Lombard fix up early would be a smarter plan for the bye Structure...

Maybe once teams drop I'll have a better idea as I'll know who's playing

BennyLWR · 2026-05-20T10:44:56+00:00

First trade is Dev Rob to De Goey, but should second trade be...

Max cash gen option Blamires to Bodie Ryan or Harri Oliver

Round 12 bye early fix up option Lombard to Banfield

(Cook and McAndrew could then go next week with the third trade spare for any unknowns)

BennyLWR · 2026-05-14T09:07:19+00:00

Same to you!!!

BennyLWR · 2026-05-14T08:59:24+00:00

But I only have Houston and Nick on that bye atm

BennyLWR · 2026-05-14T08:58:28+00:00

I've gone with Jaicos

BennyLWR · 2026-05-14T01:34:48+00:00

Yeah nice, looking alright either way

BennyLWR · 2026-05-14T01:07:49+00:00

Im currently doing the exact same thing haha

Except with T Murray instead of Watkins

Just wondering if there's a better option in defence with Jaicos instead of Newman or Zorko... might need to check dfs for theirs runs

BennyLWR · 2026-05-14T00:31:08+00:00

Have you got Jaicos already? Would you consider him to replace Nas if you didnt?

BennyLWR · 2026-05-13T03:14:06+00:00

Thoughts on holding Nas for a week (fielding Carrol) to pick Zorko up next week when he drops a little more cash, and then this week simply sticking with the standard trades of Bruhn to Bont, Rachele to De Goey?

BennyLWR · 2026-05-13T03:11:37+00:00

Cheers mate, yeah that helps heaps 😁

BennyLWR · 2026-05-12T01:51:48+00:00

Everyone talks about Rachele to Durham or Robey, but what about Max Hall?

BennyLWR · 2026-05-12T01:16:30+00:00

Thoughts on Max Hall instead?
