  1. Last fwd spot:

    TU: Jackson + 5 trades remaining
    TD: JHF + 6 trades remaining

    The first option gives me a reason to bring in Butler from the hawks as forward cover (currently have no cover)

    However I am still running McCarthy at flex, could be viable for the rest of the season?

    Thoughts really appreciated on this one!!

  2. This week:
    Roberts + Hustwaite > Mills + JHF
    Next week:
    Pedlar > Butler
    Week after:
    Carroll + Sheldrick > McCarthy + Bont
    Team complete, 6 trades left for emergencies.

    TU/TD

  3. T/U:
    El Hawli, Pedlar, Gray -> McCarthy, Rowston, 550K def/mid (NWM, Hewett, Rozee are the ones I’m deciding between)

    T/D: El Hawli, Pedlar, Gray -> Mills, Martin, Rowston

    Second option leaves me with 195K in the bank to work with over the coming weeks but relies on Mills likely becoming D6.

  4. What’s the go with Tsatas- sleep with Coach’s wife?
    Not getting a game now- can’t believe I’ve held him!
    Figures great in 2s, was emergency early days- now not even getting named as emergency

    • Season low CBAs the last two weeks.

      Bont and Richards the constants. Libba, Freijah, Treloar, Kennedy the ones chopping it up.

      Heat map still contained to the middle of the ground. Hasn’t been ‘playing’ defence by any means. Just rotated.

  5. Dante Visentini is in my flex, is it worth spending three trades to turn him into a premo or just hold for a couple more weeks whilst it’s best 18? or maybe a higher scoring mid pricer?

  6. Went L.Ashcroft & Lindsay to Butters & Z.Johnson last week
    Def – Sinclair, Holmes, Dale, Rozee, Sheezel, Roberts (Clarke, El-Hawli)
    Mid – Butters, Neale, Naicos, W.Ashcroft, Trac, Warner, Rankine (Knevitt, C.Hall, Huswaite)
    Ruc – Xerri, TDK (Boyd)
    Fwd – Smith, JHF, Macrae, Bolton, Daniel, Pedlar (Gray, C. Cleary)
    Flex – Marshall
    13 trades left, 2 boosts
    Have optimised so players have moved.

    Have already done Gray, Hall to McCarthy, Jack Martin.
    Now Hustwaite to??
    TU – Darcy ($58,200 ITB)
    TD – NAS ($4,800 ITB) if I switch Knevitt for Huswaite

  7. My current final three premo trade ins are Mills (this round) and Darcy & Moore (next week), to get me 23 premos after the byes.

    My problem is I have Marshall at Flex which is choking my DPP capabilities. I have an opportunity to move him to Mills this round allowing me to grab Darcy as well vs the Tigers:

    T/U – Hold Marshall at Flex. Finish team with 6 trades remaining
    T/D – Offload Marshall, pick up any player in any position sub $530k next week to finish team with 5 trades remaining, but in return have more flexibility with FLEX position

    • If they both score 100 in every possible game for the rest of the year , Hewett will ave 100 ea week for the 10 weeks and Holmes will ave 90

      • Actually if they both score 100 in every possible game for the rest of the year they will both average 100, but Hewett will score 1000 points and Holmes will score 900 points. But it doesn’t actually cost you that 100 points difference because you will have a replacement off your bench, and it is best of 18. So what it will actually cost you is (assuming your replacement 18th player scores 75 points) is about 25 points (without taking any loops into account).

  8. 13 trades and 2 boosts left. 3 rookies on field, need cash.

    T/U: Use my 4th boost to trade Boyd to Madden to hopefully make a bit of coin

    T/D: Save the boost and trade

  9. Trade conundrum

    TU – Mills in 1 trade (7 trades left, Phillipou at F6 as 23rd best player)
    TD – Sam Darcy in 2 trades (6 trades left next week, can do Phillipou / McCarthy rotating loop in 23rd spot)

    Sam Darcy would come in next week using the price rise of Clarke (ESS)

    Thanks!

  10. Campbell Gray -> Sam butler
    Elijah Hewett -> Sam Darcy

    Hewett is on field this week due to byes and Gray while on bench doesn’t seem to have any timeframe for return. This would help me with points for matchups this week but it may be too little too late to win. It also uses up my last boost and leaves me with 7 trades left. Next week I have 11 players on bye…

    TU – do it YOLO
    TD – this is desperate just cop the probable losses and save the extra trades to try something next week
