    1. They’re perfectly fine downgrade targets if you need to but they’re not must haves if you’re just trading for the sake of trading

      1. Yeah all merrett options leave me pretty strong onfield GD.. just not sure whether I take the slow burn of weddle or a fast cash injection if Atkins holds for 2-3 weeks.. which are you taking this week?

  2. Is it worth spending $650k for Dawson? I feel that eventually he’ll fall in price and currently it’s just a lot of money to fork out for one player.

    T/Up – Stewart ($50k cheaper)

    T/Down – Dawson

    1. Also if you got one of these in for the next month who would you choose?
      TU Oliver
      TD Dawson

      1. I don’t see how these are so one sided, Dawson has been just as good in his new midfield role. Arguably a better chance for 150 and has great matchups coming up

  3. Really liked Parish as an option due to price and upcoming fixture
    Do I continue same thought and
    TU – Merrett
    or hope the DPP will still happen and go
    TD – Walsh

  4. Essendon fans, how likely is Jake Stringer to maintain his CBAs (had around 50% last week).

    TU – very likely, we need him there.
    TD – not likely, just a short term experiment.

      1. Thanks Chris, at this stage of the season to be viable I need him to be in this role long-term. 2m Peter coming back should help, and he seems to have pushed Setters out. Comes with risk, but if the role sticks plenty of reward too.

        Lots of TU from Bombers fans, very tempted to bring in The Package.

        1. Just be prepared for the occasional score of 50. He’s a great loop option if you have that available some weeks

  5. Which is the better option?

    T/U Setterfield to Merrett 18k ITB

    T/D Ashcroft to Andrew Brayshaw 34k ITB

    Whoever stays is probably being traded next week unless they go big this week.

    1. Probably fine for D8 if you need a downgrade, but I’d make sure D7 has good JS, otherwise you could easily have no defensive bench cover.

  6. Doing a rookie trade:

    TU: Cowan for Gould – improves cash generation across the board, definite path to Laird next week, fulfils the SC prophecy of Will Gould at D8, but dicey rookie at F6 and Gould has almost no JS

    TD: Pedlar for Atkins – improved on-field scoring, likely better cash generation but no path to Laird and he’s still Rory Atkins

    I will not be considering Josh Weedle. Thank you for your time.

  7. Two week plan, barring no injuries

    T/u
    Week 1
    Ashcroft, Wilmot, JVR – Steele, Gulden Weddle
    Week 2
    Baker, Davey – DCameron & Drury

    Leaving 2 rookies on field (Cincotta/Simpson/SMitchell)

    T/d
    Week 1
    Ashcroft, Wilmot, JVR – Satan, Gulden, Weddle
    Week 2
    Davey – Drury
    Leaving 3 rookies on field (Cincotta/Baker/Simpson/SMitchell)

  8. Is this the week to double downgrade and bank the cash for next week or do I go ahead and upgrade Ashcroft to a premo?

    TU:
    Hollands > Drury
    Baker > Weddle
    388k ITB

    TD:
    Hollands > Drury
    Ashcroft > Stewart/Merrett

  9. 21 trades and 1 boost left before, let me know thoughts

    TU – Greene, Ashcroft, Mckenna for Clarry, Atkins, Weddle
    TD – Hold trades, Atkins and Weddle aren’t worth it

    Really want Satan, probably my best chance to get him

  12. Torn between
    Thumb up – Atkins
    Thumb down – weddle
    Both bad Job Security but Atkins big scoring potential and fast money?

  13. 10-0 on the TU for Stringers role and CBAs maintaining, The Package is in! Thanks to all who voted, unless you’re secretly evil (I guess we’ll find out soon).

  16. Going to be my M7 – I have Neale, Bont, Greene, Oliver, Steele and Laird already.

    T/U Libba
    T/D Anderson

    Was going to go Cripps but not liking Carlton’s run of games.

  18. Need to offload Grundy and, while cheap, I’m concerned the 2 premo rucks in the same squad conundrum exists for Gawn.

    My second and 3rd rucks are currently Marshall and Ratuglea.

    Grundy, Wilmot and F.Greene will be evicted with my last boost, and I’m currently deliberating between:

    TU: Gawn, Oliver and Madden
    TD: Oliver, A.Brayshaw and Madden (fielding Ratuglea this week and getting English for Hopper next week or so)

  19. Which trade should I do this week?

    T/U: Jones/Ashcroft -> Drury/ Clarry
    T/D: Jones/Greene -> Weddle/ Docherty

    Clarry trade fits my bye structure a little better and am afraid I won’t be able to bring him in later without doing 3 – 4 trades. Will need to field Wilmot and don’t like bringing in a player who is not on the bubble.

    Docherty trade means I can get Weddle and then Drury next week if named. I can also hold Ashcroft for the next week or 2./ through the byes if need be.

    Cheers everyone. Good luck this week!

    1. Been grappling with this one…bank $50k + DPP switch Gawn fwd in a couple of weeks and get Marshall back. Gawn plays Hawks this week (172, 95, 172), while Marshall has a tough run against Adelaide and GWS for at least the next two weeks. Apart from the trade, any other reasons I’m missing not to pull the trigger?
