  Chris, thanks for another thoughtful article. I can take a -8 to get to my WC team. Is that preferable to using the WC?

  Thanks PurpleDog,

  if you can get to your WC team with a -8 then I’d strongly consider it or even phasing it over 2 weeks so it’s a -4.

  we have a fixture swing GW4, then another GW7/8 so if you can get in a good position for those then the hits should pay off. The next fixture swing after that is around GW15 and that’s where you could gain an advantage over the early wildcarders.

  Also, looking at the likely DGW slots and assuming you still have your bench boost then it’s looking like the second WC won’t be used until the end of the season. If you use your first WC early, it’s a long gap until the second. I’m still probably going to WC around GW7 but like you, I’m only a few moves away from some of the drafts out there.
