  1. Just a quick one without going into too much background:

    Thompson > Shaw? Thumbs Up.

    Tapscott > O’Keefe/Pavlich. Thumbs Down.

    Cheers guys..

  2. Have $360k thinking Lower/Stanley type to Shaw (DEF) and Curnow to Delideo (MID)
    Have Heppell and God in def and Gibbs in the mid so Lids would be good DPP

  3. I have Matera, Knights and Tapscott on my fwd bench and am thinking of trading Knights (BE: 84; AVG: 72) to Smith and then Curnow into Mundy, as I definitely need to bolster my mids.

    Or the other, higher risk option is to do two downgrades this week and possibly even two next week just to take advantage of all these cash cows that are on the bubble (smith & puopolo and then jacobs & lynch next week and mzungu soon too). Should have close to $800,000 in the bank and then just need to upgrade for the next 4 or so trades.

    Option 1 or 2? Up or Down?

  4. This week I’m thinking one of L.Thompson/Lower/Stanley >> Poo/Jacobs, accompanied by D.Swallow >> Montagna.

    Montagna should go bananas against Casey this week after a week off.

  6. Who would you take from:-
    Ablett
    Boyd
    Priddis
    And am I alone in thinking that Jude Bolton is a steal at $432,400??

  7. l thompson > hibberd/puopolo (depending on selections later this week)

    and curnow > i smith

    not sure though whether its worth keeping curnow as he will only be out for 2 weeks (3 weeks at most)

    could look at downgrading matera or tapscott as well.

  13. I’m in a bit of a quandary at this point. I’ve got $200,000 in the kitty, after a forced hand last week, but I think I want to jump on Isaac Smith and big Lynch before they (hopefully) skyrocket in price. Do I cow down Curnow and Matera/Tapscott/McKernan (haven’t decided which one) and think for a week about what to do with approx $600,000 or should I invest in a gun this week and sees what presents next week?

    Thumbs up – show me the money
    Thumbs down – get yo’ act together boy? You need them guns.

  14. Thumbs up – curnow + Thompson –> I.smith + fisher
    Thumbs down – curnow + Mckernan –> I.smith + suckling

  15. Been crunching the numbers for too long and have burnt more brain cells than a night at the Swan so I’ll throw my plan out there for any thoughts…..

    RD 9

    Lower -> Hibberd
    Swallow -> Boyd

    RD 10

    Libba -> Jacobs
    Tapscott -> Chappy

    RD 11

    McKernan -> Mzungu
    Krakouer -> Priddis

    After that I will (hopefully) be happy to not touch the whiteboard for a while and have 10 trades and somewhere between $90 – $120k in the bank.

    Nice little bonus of having Chappy and Priddis make their debuts against the Beach Boys.

  16. Thinking i may go:
    Otten >> Puopolo (think his JS is better than Hibberd’s)
    Curnow >> Mundy or Boyd

  17. Good day people,

    An interesting thought this week. Going for the league win only, and as I have a very weak opponent this week (and a rather difficult one for Round 10), my thought was that I do a DOUBLE DOWNGRADE THIS WEEK (i.e.: to take advantage of the good ‘bubble’ rookies this round, such as I. Smith & Hibberd), and then do a DOUBLE UPGRADE NEXT WEEK (i.e.: bring in, say Mundy, Ablett, Pavlich, etc).

    Thoughts?

  18. Matera to smith
    Is getting done, I’m keeping darling and tapscot for bench cover
    Then
    Harris to selwood thumbs up
    Or l.Thompson to puopolo thumbs down?

    Then selwood and ablett or Pendles next week?

  19. Is anyone thinking of bringing in T Chaplin?

    Stats: $417k Ave 94. Last 3 101 Last 5 107.

    Next 3 games against Freo, Rich, Carl, but still has 2 byes to come, although both on single rounders (and lets face it, who has more than 1 port player anyway?)

  20. Ive never been one to post my team on a forum before but any Advice to bolster my backs please would be awesome (1200 overall and trying to improve!)

    Shaw, deledio, heppell, Gibbs, broughton, lower, Buckley
    Mckernan, Thompson, Markovic

    Pendles, swan, bartel, joelwood, cotchin, libba
    Harris, CURNOW, atley

    Cox, sandi

    N.reiwoldt, Dawes, fyfe, goodes, darling, Petrie, Franklin
    Duncan, matera, tappy.

    Im contemplating (like everyone) curnow to I.smith, then have enough to bring in fisher or suckling,’which would leave me with a solid backline and an almost complete team (I think!).

    Any tips/advice is welcomed.

    Thumbs up for fisher
    Thumbs down for suckling
    (am I missing anyone, besides the disappointing Goddard, or the injury-prone adcock)

    Cheers

  21. Cheers guys, I’m actually happy with my FWD line brad (and rucks and mids) ; Dawes can have big games, especially against poor teams. My backs are the weakest link. I’ve already got shaw fishtopher, and I’m leaning toward fisher as he is playing so well even though the saints are playing poor footy. His JS is rock solid, and he’s proven. Suckling is interesting, having huge games really,’and 100k cheaper,’but can he sustain it? adcock, I’m not really keen. Other option is to trade out Duncan for a fwd/def player and switch him to def (Murphy, Grundy……) although I’m not sold on them at this stage. Fisher for mine, guess I wanted reassurance from the experts on this site!

  22. Why is it that you can see exactly what someone else should do but its impossible to make a clear decision on your own team?

    OK, I’ve read everything and have weighed it all up. If you guys can help to confirm this is all good to lock in, I’ll go spend some time with my wife until around July 😆

    Here’s the Current Team
    DEF: Fisher, Goddard, Gibbs, Murphy, Duigan, Broughton, Lower
    (Stanley, Thompson L, Toy)

    MID: Swan, Priddis, Judd, Heppell, Goodes, Selwood
    (Swallow, Harris, Smith I)

    RUK: Cox, Sandilands
    (Smith Z, Tippet)

    FWD: Franklin, Pavlich, Darling, Riewoldt N, Tapscott, Petrie, Krakouer A
    (Matera, McKernan, Richardson)

    Here’s the Plan

    167K in the kitty
    18 trades left

    RD 9
    L Thompson -> Puopolo/Jacobs (see who’s named; toss coin)
    Stanley -> Shaw

    RD 10
    Matera -> Lynch
    Swallow -> Ablett

    RD 11
    McKernan -> Mzungu
    Krakouer -> Premium FWD

    RD 12
    Smith Z -> Muppet RUCK
    Tapscott -> Premium FWD

    Then, stop trading and run with this for 4 weeks. Possibly 1-2 tweaks b/w Rd 16-20. Saving a couple of trades for possible LTI and at least 6 trades left for finals.

  23. I’d want Boyd or Priddis if you can free up some extra coin (or trade Swallow instead if you have him).

    If you want to save the cash Sam Mitchell would be a good solid buy. Plays GC RD 24 too.

  24. Was suppose to work 6 hours last satie….this is what I came up with instead 😀

    Rnd 9
    Thompson to pops
    Matera to Smith.

    Rnd 10
    Swallow to Hodge

    Rnd 14
    Harris to swan

    This makes my midfield, judd,boyd,swan,pendles,hodge,selwood.
    Also leaves only lower and darling as my only non keepers on the ground till finals.

    Rnd 18,19 & 20 ill cash in 1 rook a week, leaving me about 700k in the bank and 8-10 trades during finals.

    Rnd 1 of finals upgrade lower and darling to keepers.

    2nd rnd of finals if i have to play ill trade out selwood and enright

    3rd round of finals ill trade out judd and gibbs

    the granny ill need to trade out ryder and heppel.

    With the 700k ill have in the bank ill have about 82k on top of each player i need to trade out during finals.

    So at this point i can afford to use 2 trades on LTI’s before it affects my plans. FINGERS CROSSED!

    Ive been hanging to tell someone my plan!!!
    mrs doesnt give a shit!

    Happy trading guys!

  25. Ok Here is my trade plan (barring LTI and selection) Tell me what you think.

    R9 $119,600 in the bank
    Matera-Siposs
    Atley-Hibbered

    R10
    Toy-Shaw
    Tapscott-Lynch

    R11
    Z Smith-nuffie
    Libba-Priddis

    This will leave me with 9 trades and approx 200k in the bank and my team should look like this

    Lids Godd Gibbs Shaw Brought Hepp Lower (Stanley Thompson Watson)

    Pendles Mundy Boyd Priddis Selwood Goodes (Harris Hibb Smith)

    Sandi Cox (Tippet Nuffie)

    Franklin Pav StevieJ N.Roo J.Roo Higgins Krak (Lynch Dish Siposs)

    I will trade out Lower prior to bye in R16 maybe but other than that just sit tight and ride the wave man.

    If I get a good response here I will stick to this plan like glue (until next week anyway) Currently ranked just outside 4000.

    Cheers.

  26. Happy with team & sitting 4-1 in money league 1/3rd of way into season. Critical time though so appreciate your thoughts:-
    Bank 274,200, Team Value $12M, 18 Trades left (want 7-8 for finals)
    Back Keepers-Adcock, Gibbs, Godd, R.Murphy,Broughton
    Backs-Trade Later? – Duigan, Lower, Heppall
    Backs-Current Trade Bait – L. Thompson & Toy
    Mid Keepers – Pav, Joelwood, Montagna, Libba
    Mid-Trade Later – A.Krak, S.Buckley, I.Smith, D.Harris
    Mid’s Current Trade Bait – D.Swallow & (& Heppell into mids)
    Rucks- happy with Sandi, Cox, Z.Smith & Derickx
    Forward Keepers – Franklin, Goodes, ROK, Stevie J, Rioli, Darling
    Forward Trade Later – Tapscott & Higgins (if injury continues)
    Trade Bait – Petrie & C. Knights (& Higgins if injury continues)

    Trade thoughts:-
    DEF -H.Shaw (Rd 14) & Fischer (Rd 15) into backline, so backs can wait.
    MID -Swan either this week or rd 14, G.Ablett & / or Brennan next week, Lids in Rd 12, Jacobs or Mzunga when on bubble
    FORW -Sippos or N. Riewoldt this week (or leave Riewoldt for Rd 15), Lynch in Rd 10, Gilbert or Talia in Rd 15 for DPP with R.Murphy

    Thumbs up for:-
    RD 9 – Swan & Sippos for D.Swallow & Knights (or Higgins if not named)
    RD 10 – GAJ & Lynch (GC) for Heppell & Petrie

    Thumbs down for:-
    RD 9 – Swan & N.Riewoldt for D.Swallow & Petrie (Knights would’nt work)
    RD 10 – Lynch (GC) for Knights (& potentially Jacobs for L.Thompson)
    RD 12 – Lids for Harris (after 2 more rises)

    Comments (i.e. Hibbert of Popoulo to L.Thompson) & votes would be greatly appreciated as want league win. Cheers.

  27. Good Plan D Mac!
    And planned out right to the very end! Hope you get there. Tell yr Mrs, that all the girls on here, (me being one), give a shit.
    Ok, trades : Duigan to Hibberd/M.Watson (any one else thinking Watson-if named-will hold his spot above Laidler, Thornton & White?).
    & Heppell to Ablett, need to get Ablett this week….coz next week :
    Grimes to Goddard & fwd downgrade to Lynch.
    Yes, I still have Grimey! And Goddard will be dirt cheap next week! Think he’ll come good- & may be better long term than Fisher.

  28. I see the next two weeks as downgrade weeks

    R9 – curnow -> smith, l Thompson -> hibberd

    R10 – batchelor/toy -> jacobs, matera/tapscott -> lynch

    After that use the cash to bring in the premiums

    I think there are too many quality rookies on the bubble over the next two weeks to be upgrading as I’m 5-0 in my league. The premiums won’t be going anywhere!

  29. i have michael coad still on my bench.
    is there any point trading him for a rookie (puop, smith ect)
    or am i better off downgrading someone like lower?

  30. Am reall stuck between two sets of trades.

    1,
    Tapscott -> Goodes
    Duigan -> Hibberd opens up MPP)
    Wanted to get Goodes in with BE being low.

    2.
    Grimes -> Newman/Enright
    Duigan -> Hibberd (opens up MPP)
    Good to finally upgrade Grimes as too much money on the bench

    The problem with option 1 is that next week I would need to trade in Jacobs as he would be on the bubble and I also wanted Montagna/Ablett in. This leaves Grimes still sitting on the bench (for his third week).

    Thumbs up for Option 1 and
    Thumbs down for Option 2

  32. Currently thinking of doing just the 1 trade. Lower to Puopolo (have L Thompson, but sick of Lower getting subbed)
    – I got I Smith last week
    – Thoughts on a double downgrade? I have any easy match this week. Could do L Thompson for Hibberd, but I’m concerned about the job security
    – Is it too early to get Hodge ($443.8 BE 87)? Could grab him for Heppell/Swallow (both have byes this week/next week)

  33. With 2 easy league games coming up I’m looking at doing the following over the next 3 weeks; My backline is extremely week with Goddard, Gibbs Broughton and possibly Duigan my only keepers.
    I have 200k and 20 trades in the bank.

    R9
    Thompson -> Hibberd
    Matera -> Smith
    R10
    Swallow -> Boyd/Ablett/Mundy
    Stanley -> Fisher/Shaw/Lids
    R11
    Tapscott -> Mzungu
    Toy -> Fisher/Shaw/Lids

    What are peoples thoughts?

  36. Those on my chopping list include Menzel, Knights, McKernan, Anthony, Jamar and Hurley. Krakouer is safe for another week because of his super low BE. Jamar can wait because I have Petrie as back up.

    Essendon has said Hurley will definitely miss this week, and then they have the bye, so I’ll have him sitting on the bench for at least 2 more weeks. Given they can’t give a time frame for his injury, I’m thinking it’s time to go …. Hurley! My dilemma is that I need to fix up my fwd line, and Hurley is currently in def. Have McKernan in def and Menzel in fwd to switch him with, but that will leave me with both MPPs in def, so no more swapping. No forwards have really jumped out at me, and it will be too early to bring in J Brown. NFI who to bring in. ARGH!!!!

    Does anyone consider Heppel and/or Duigan to be keepers?

  37. Trade this week will be Curnow into I smith, going to hold the cash until a gun has a lower price, some high break-evens out there no need to PANIC TRADE

  38. My decision this week is:

    1. Got just enough money to do a straight trade: D.Swallow –> Judd. Would be happy to do this but am currently winning my league, so I need to consider that Judd has the bye in the semi’s.
    2. A downgrade somewhere to puopolo, and an upgrade to Mundy. Not sure if it’s worth making two trades though…

    Thoughts???

  46. Have the cash to upgrade Thompson and Lower to backline premiums this week. Tossing up between Fisher/Enright/Adcock, need to choose 2 of them to add to my current backline of:

    Any thoughts guys? Was originally thinking Adcock and Fisher but am warming to Enright as the week goes on.

  54. That’s dengo but why u Ask questions if answers u are not seeking? Jacobs is pretty good given that port is fn sht and they have to play rookies, north has levi coming back soon too don’t they? I don’t care honestly, hibberd and puopolo are better options playing in better sides.

  55. Just curious, wouldn’t be doing this now, but for a long term plan….
    Who would be better to have on the bench come finals?
    Say I didn’t need the cash and wanted a solid back up, which of these would be better?

    Harris thumbs up
    Darling thumbs down.

    Just curious.

  56. Either looking at double downgrade this week (thompson –> hibberd/puopolo [depending on teams], curnow –> i smith)

    or going downgrading thompson –> hibberd/puopolo
    and upgrading curnow –> hodge

    not sure how many more midfield downgrade options will open up, excluding jacobs – this would be my main reason for getting smith. (mzungu will be in my fwd line)

  60. Lenny, higgins and Watson are injured,
    Where are swan adcock and priddis? You going for leauge win or runner up to me for overall? Lol
    11 trades left and u only have 15premiums, how u gonna upgrade the other 7 and keep some trades for ltis? I have 10 trades left and 20 premiums, just saying, did u waste heaps of trades on sideways? Cos if u rookie downgraded where is the cash? Did u go to crown with FEV? Sorry don’t mean to be rude just long day!! Gonna be hard to fix it now and keep trades,

    first thing id do is trade petrie and Matera for pavlich and lynch or mzungu and hope he and higgins stay healthy.

    Next week trade Thompson for Jacobs if he looks the goods and primus hasn’t lost the plot and upgrade Harris to a premium, then sit on ur 7 trades couple weeks by then Lake will be worth a straight swap for Lower.

  62. Is wait a week to get hodge, he will only go up 10-15k of he passes be, playing the swans I’m sure he will get tagged hard, by waiting a week we will know if his back to 100% or just dominated because the saints are worse than gold coast right now!

  63. Rhys broughton playing injured, he will come good, don’t sideways trade to suck, better off getting shaw and a new cash cow.

  64. Well can we call goddard and reiwoltd and broughton premiums even though they fallen below 450k? Or harry Taylor premium because he should be top 10-15 for certain position by end of year? Or rockliff and s.Thompson because they are averaging well over 100 so far?

    I think its a hard one to judge premiums right now because really so far its only judd,swan,Pendles,boyd,mundy,selwood,sandilands,cox,priddis,pavlich consistently pumping out big scores how many defenders other than fisher shaw and deledio? Adcock maybe?

    Anyway I have
    Def: adcock,gods,gibs,broughton,Taylor
    Mids: judd swan mundy selwood rockliff Thompson

    Ruck sand/cox
    Fwd : nroo jroo Franklin pavlich okeefe goodes Sylvia

    Maybe 19 without Taylor ok

    I know u will disagree with some but SO FAR Sylvia rockliff Thompson have done a premiums job I’m my opinion.

  67. Wait til tomorrow see if poo is named, what happened to his injury from last week?

    Surely with hawks and bombers injuries/suspensions they both have good JS atm

  68. If I’m getting Hodge into my midfield, worth trading Burgoyne out for him, as then I don’t have two hawks chilling in my midfield, and its a cheaper upgrade than, say, Swallow to Hodge.

  69. My Team

    Delidio, Shaw, Goddard, Gibbs, Broughton, Heppell, Lower
    (Duigan, Stanley, Lester(dw bout him)

    Swan, Pendlebury, Selwood, Harris, Krakouer, Gysberts
    (Iles, Wallis, Hibberd)

    COX AND SANDI
    (Petrie and Smith)
    Franklin, Pavlich, O’keefe, Goodes, Rioli, N.Reiwoldt, Darling
    (Tapscott, Matera, Richardson)

    Ranked in top 5000 and have got 16 trades left

    any trade advice

    I am thinking
    Stanley to Puopollo
    Harris- S.Tompson (POD)

    Next week
    double downgrade invloving getting Jacobs and Lynch.

  70. Max what about
    duigan to puopolo and Harris to smith instead, Adelaide will get pumped this week, but I have Thompson he’s a gun, next week double upgrade gysberts and krakhead to two mid prems.

    Is keep Stanley good cover for the byes, looks to have cemented a spot in the team and looks like a good player.

  71. How are u in leauge? U could get rid of lester and Richardson for Jacobs lynch then upgrade later if you have an easy draw,

    Unless Jacobs gets a big score this week he won’t go up much more than 20-30k after his 3rd game given his sht house first up score but js should be good for bye cover

  72. Is 4 downgrades in next 2 weeks risky? Will it keep me too far away from the overall leader?

    4 downgrades good – Thumbs up

    Leave me too far behind- thumbs down

  73. Hmmm… I have a conumdrum.
    I went to sleep last night and drempt about trades. As of yesterday I was solid on my plan but have questioned the possibilty of swapping Higgins into the midfield with Goodes and trading him for Hodge. with the current plan I would have gained Shaw and Priddis over the next 3 weeks but if I do it this way I loose Higgins but gain Hodge and Priddis into the midfield for Higgins and Libba, Shaw for Toy and a shift of Goodes into the forward line.

    I think too much about this when I should be working

    What do Y’all think? Tup=good idea Tdown=don’t be a knob.

  74. Depends if yr going for league supremacy or all out glory. If its just league (and yr not wallowing in the bottom 8), then i’d suggest holding onto libba for a while. Could be risky move to fill up mid field with premiums too early, LTIs and form slumps can come back to haunt u if u have an itchy trade finger (speaking from experience). If I was gonna pick one right now, i’d go with Priddis as a premium mid, pretty consistent.

  75. Need to bolster backs like everyone…..

    Thumbs up — fisher
    Thumbs down — suckling + 100k spare (for premium upgrade next week)

  76. Mate Enright is too inconsistent for me. I want a back who will get a solid 90-100 a week…. not a back who will vary from 40-120. If he has an off week it could mean the diff between a win and a loss

    3 options im looking at for the next 2-3 weeks.

    1- Sam Fisher
    2- Heath Shaw
    3- Heath Grundy

  83. So out of Fisher and Shaw, who do we think will score higher this week?
    Not sure which to bring in, my opponent has Shaw so Fisher would be a good POD for my league game but is it risky with Collingwood ready to smash Adelaide this week?

    Up: Fisher
    Down: Shaw

  85. Matera —-> Siposs and Petrie ——> Sandilands thumbs up.

    Matera —–> Siposs and Thompson —-> Puolpolo thumbs down.

    Different ideas, Petries B/E is 82, but he is versing Brisbane.
    Thompsons B/E is 74, versing Collingwood.
    Anyone’s thoughts on P-mans JS.

  86. LIberatore, Swallow and Conca on the bench.
    Time to sell off one for a cheap midfielder and cash in? or should I waita couple of weeks?

  87. @The General, best to downgrade Hurley, his injury and inconsistent scoring is not doing much for your team, but have you considered Hibberd or puopolo? You still have another week to look at Jacobs before he is on the bubble. Boyd is a very solid choice, been putting out some great scores so far. Another reason is that I.Smith did not make the team this week.

  88. so its nearly time to cash in our first lot of rookies ,to a new lot of rookies and keep only 1or 2 rookies from the first lot and make them keepers …which ones could be worth keeping in the side ?and which one should go ? . anyway the second lot of rookies are they the most important ones , because they are the ones you might end up with, and not having a lot trades left when the time come to cash them in. So the desisions you make today is going to tell later on….

  90. Have Harris and Swallow (GCS) both reached their peak price?
    Is it the time to start thinking about trading them both in for a Mundy/Mzungu double?

    Freo’s other bye is a multi-bye round

    My mids atm are Swan, Judd, Heppell, Selwood, Hodge, Liberatore…..with Swallow/Harris (GCS) and Wallis (WB)

  91. What would you do with this team??

    I was set to bring in Smith, but not now…. (Im 1200 overall with 38k in the bank)
    Im contemplating bringing in Fisher or Suckling (with both having solid B/E) to push Lower or Buckley to the bench, but how would you go about it RE downgrade options (puopolo, Hibberd, Mzungu?). Also, am I being too impulsive, and can I assume Lower (vs Port) & Buckley (vs Crows) should score pretty well considering both starting on field.

    Gibbs, Shaw, Deledio, Broughton, Heppell, Lower, Buckley
    McKernan, Thompson, Markovic

    Swan, Pendles, Cotchin, Bartel, Joelwood, Libba
    CURNOW, Harris, Atley

    Cox, Sandi
    Smith, McCauley

    Franklin, Goodes, Fyfe, NReiwoldt, Dawes, Darling, Petrie
    Tappy, Duncan, Matera

    Comments are welcome, or Thumbs up to trade, and Thumbs down to conserve…..

  92. After some midfield advise.
    Need to choose between Krak or Bucks as my #6 midfielder.
    Teams show Bucks named on wing and Krak on extended bench.
    My concern is that Krak could get named as sub and pull a Smith-esque 11 points for my midfield.

    Thoughts?
    T Up – Bucks into midfield
    T Down – Krak into midfield

  93. Decided I have too many Freo players.

    Considering Broughton –> Gwilt
    would be left with 71300 in kitty

    to Upgrade Conca –> Ladson (hawks play GC round 24?)
    would leave me with 55700 in the bank and a more ‘balanced’ side in terms of mixes of teams.

    Or is it simply waste of trade?
    other player I was considering was Broughton to Gilbee.

  94. Did you mean to write Ladson or was that typo? 😀

    Two sideways trades are a waste I think. Depending on your trades situation and team structure, you’d probably be better served by a downgrade/upgrade scenario.

  95. Think its worth down grading Luke Thompson to Puopolo? He BE is pretty much his average at 77 and I don’t see him having a great game against the pies. Thoughts?

  96. Got 277,600 in bank.
    17 trades left

    Toy —> Puopolo
    Otten —> Fisher/Deledio
    (leaves with about 130,000 give or take a few with the person i get and 15 trades left)

    What do you think?

    And also Fisher (thumbs up) or Lids (thumbs down)

  97. Ok, I have to leave home in 10 minutes so this is the final call on my R8 trades:
    Swallow > Hibberd
    Thompson > Fisher

    only downside is it means I have Hibberd and Heppell in the mids, but will bring in Jacobs into defence next week to switch with Heppell to make Dyson D7 for the season, leaving Jacobs and Hibberd as bench coverage in mids and swapping potential with Goddard/Lids/Gibbs/Heppell to cover for mid injuries/byes.
    Can I get a thumbs up to make the transaction complete?!
    Or a thumbs down if this plan is foolish!
