Calculations (With 188k upgrades spent)
Maloney 615k (803k)
Rein 550k (738k)
Griffin 604k (792k)
Havili 581k (749k)
Then assuming max cash out = 212k player (Current price)
Sorensen 164k (376k)
Gosiewski 132k (344k)
JMK* 224k (436k)
Su'a* 233k (445k)
753K to spend on the 4 required upgrades or 188K spread out
Will need an 18th man too, but worst case this can be the best scoring cow
_______________________________________________________________________________________
Now lets looks at players we can target that we may not have to spend all these $$ on = Cut price keepers.
Prerequisite is they need score on average at least 50 points by years end and have good job/role security
Any position is fine here, due to the low trades then DPP is bonus here too to cover short term injuries
POD factor is another bonus, in order to climb ranks then this is going to help.
Lastly non origin players will also help to maximise the average for remaining games.
The downside is there are no perfect players, some risk with either injury clouds or role changes or their team team form effecting their scores.
Going to have to take some risks but that's fantasy
Basically this is why these players are cheap, we are gambling on them scoring above their price we buy them for and returning to former glory
Also due to other injuries these players make take on more workload
WIP Shortlist to look at a few value buys
Andrew McCullough (BE 71) 771k Would like him to drop in price some more, Wolverine has burnt me once with his quick return from injury I need him to hopefully drop some more to make me feel better haha.
Jake Friend (BE 48) 564k Still too expensive and hasn't shown any old form where he can bust out a 50+ score. Will keep an eye on him but it's a no for now
Apisai Koroisau (BE 63) 644k Bit of a form slump due to the way Manly has gone recent. With his price dropping heavily he could be a great pickup in a couple weeks with decent byes and good cover
Cameron Smith (BE 66) 832k For his price and with origin he is a no for now, might be a luxury bring in after origin..Will see
Sam Burgess (BE 41) 752k Just can't commit to him, the Rabbitohs pack is full of unknown's and minutes so need a week or so to see how it all fits together. Big minutes this week will change everything but with Murray don't want to have them take points off each other. Though
Andrew Fifita (BE 34) 834k Priced at top dollar now, and with the troops back soon I am unsure if I can afford him without sacrificing elsewhere. Wait and see here but would love the big man just need to look at ways to get him in
Ryan James (BE 25) 691k Bit of a smokey going under the radar at the moment, great recent form but is this temporary due to injuries and extra responsibility.. Will look even more in depth to see if returning back to a 50pt player
Simon Mannering (BE 56) 695k Unless he gets his 13 position back with 60mins +, he is a no and will remain a 40-45 point player
Paul Gallen (BE 67) 671k Still has a high BE, potentially in his last year and with recent injury need to see him get back to decent minutes which I am afraid he may not see again (Due to the youngsters stepping up)
Jake Trbo (BE 49) 790k A great option but you are paying for what you get, so no real discount. Not a bad option though
Tohu Harris (BE 63) 677k Mentioned him at the top of the page, just waiting till he bottoms out in the next week or 2 then will be a great pick up
Angus Crichton (BE 66) 742k Could be an option but at his current price and with a stacked Rabbitohs forward pack just need to see how they balance their team over the next week or 2. Sub 700k and he is worth a gamble
Also he doesn't seem to get much ball this year, just a feeling like Matterson in the past couple weeks I have but stats back this up too.
Coen Hess (BE 48) 759k With origin and essentially buying him at full price, will give him a miss . I do like my 80min edge players so another potential but no for now
Corey Norman (BE 23) 679k He is over performing in an eels team where he is in good recent form = means we are paying a premium for big attacking stats. When he goes missing so does his scores
Adam Reynolds (BE 20) 661k For his recent injury history he is going alright and has scored well due to the Rabbitohs recent form. Great value with big kicking metres + goals = solid base stats, only a matter of time before he starts running.Good byes too
Nathan Cleary (BE 77) 821k At the moment he needs to drop some cash to become affordable, more of a luxury at this stage and potentially a swap with Reynolds when the time is right. Can't get them all and I want to see how he goes from his return from injury before I spend 800k.
Roger Tuavasa Sheck (BE 23) 575k Basically similar to below, but while he has the odd big game he can go missing too.Due to his much higher ownership will roll the dice on Jordan instead
Jordan Rapana (BE 26) 519k Much cheaper than RTS, Raiders improving with Roger a lot more involved. POD at 7.9% ownership and only a matter of time before he has a huge game.
