News of Dane Swan turning up in unsatisfactory condition to training on Monday after a night out at the Barkley and subsequent 2 match suspension sent coaches scurrying to see if their opponents this week had him. On the downside my opponent in my cash league doesn’t but on the plus side, neither do I.
If you do have him, what will you do with him?

What if you’re not in the top 4, have bugger all trades but do have decent cover?

If you have bugger all trades, I guess that decision is already made for you…

Bugger all doesn’t mean none Yiorgy. If LoEC was the only league I was in I’d probably bit the bullet (and punch Swan) and make the trade with it being a knockout.
Fortunately for you in my main league I’m sitting top 4 and have a reasonably soft game so will probably hold off. If porpoise comes good I’ll have to make a call between him and Sam Gibson.

Little or none I believe. Gibson has been tearing it up lately anyway so it might not be such a massive loss. Surely its time for Gibson to have a stinker. Surely!!

I’ve got faith in the ex-Hawk and am leaning that way. He was leading all scorers for a lot of last week’s game. Still, can’t see him getting 40-plus touches Swan stylee.

With Buddy and Robbo set to return this week losing Swan shouldn’t be that much of an issue for The RhinoBeetles. Btw nioce headline

Sorry meant T.Milera and not Dickson.. Dickson should be good bench cover for finals.

Who d’ya guys reckon is the best MID I can trade in for Swanny? I’m leaning towards Dangerfield, but I dunno. Already have Ablett, Cotchin, Carrazzo, Sloane, Beams, Sidebum, Zorko, Goodes and Goddard.
Thanks

Sydney Swans alarm! If you’ve got a KO Final, his record might be concerning.

K.Jack, J.Selwood, J.Watson, S.Tuck all good options.

He is going to come back for the prelim and GF on a serious mission. Trade out only to cover a donut, because this beast will score 300+ in his last 2. The Great Dane is still great in the eyes of DavePies.

You’ve been saving trades for sc finals so ot sing them would be a waste. Also broughton isn’t even going to be playing for the rest of the year so you’re best off trading him.

I’m moving Treloar into the mids to cover swan. Might use my last two trades to sell Ellis and Broughton and buy H.Shaw and Bell.
This will buy me some cover in the back line.
I am sick of donuts.
I’m first but playing someone who is pulling out massive scores.
T/U Good move
T/D For God’s sake man, save your trades.

Make sure heater is playing first. Rumour is he didn’t train hard and left the field early.

Oh yes Carl. Very nice indeed. No point in having Swan if you have 2 must win games. NDS should hopefully get you 110+ whilst The difference from Ellis to Scotland is probably a good 30 points which could make all the difference. NDS or Thompson are still cheap as chips & both have easy SC finals runs – with NDS less likely to be rested.

If Buddy plays I’ll bench him & use Martin in the midfield to cover. Tigers are playing the Dogs this week so here’s hoping that Dusty can do something against poor opposition.
A win will give me the week off & Swan back for the Prelim. A loss and I’ll deal with it next week.
If no Buddy I’ll be forced to trade because I don’t want rookies playing in finals.
4 trades remaining, full strength side.
