TU: Kako, SPP, Daniel > El-Hawli, Sinclair, Holmes. (Completes Def even though 2 will sit in Mids for now)
TD: SPP, Daniel, Bice > El-Hawli, Sinclair, Holmes (Completes Def as well but means playing Lindsay/El-Hawli on field for a week or two)
MM…SPP is The Number 1 trade out…has been exceptional given his first game shocker of 18 and has made 209 large but his BE of 111…Peatling at 452 with DPP..and no Crouch… is a good replacement while Phillpou, at 313 BE 50, plays The Eagles…could be a long term option as he is in The Saints best 22…
Meek has been left in melbourne and will miss this week, after 2 terrible scores and BE of 200+ is it ok swing the axe? Have Marshall at flex so will be able to pick anyone, thinking Whitfield.
Also bit lost on dropping Short now or waiting 2 weeks as richmond have north and essendon.
TU:
Daniel & Cleary > Warner & Rozee
(Rozee will complete my defence once he gains DPP & suits my byes, not enough $$ to afford Merrett if upgrade Daniel)
TD:
Cleary > Merrett
(This options means holding Daniel)
Was a post earlier this year mentioning Sicily’s stats are similar to his previous years, only thing down is his DE due to a bunch of failed hero kicks into the corridor. Well now his DE has gone up after last week where he reigned in his kicking a bit. Proven premium. Reckon he’s a decent POD.
I’m also considering backing L.Ryan to return to premo, but think this is far riskier.
These are my trades so far:
Bice + FOS + Daniel out
L.Ryan + Sicily + Boxshall in
TU – go for it
TD – get Holmes instead of Ryan
Comment – leave Ryan out and only do 2 trades (next week I’ll have the cash for NWM/Whitfield)
My team before trades has eight round 12 bye players on field. With this in mind, is it worth boosting Cerra to Whitfield? Other trades are Bice and Daniel to El Hawli and Sinclair/Zorko
TU: Do it, take the opportunity and get in the potential D1 for the rest of the season
TD: Save the boost, bank some cash and reassess next week. Neither player will have dramatically change in price
I have Meek and TDK as rucks lmao. I am so tempted to drop them both and Daniel for Gawn, Xerri and a rookie. Feels like a stupid rage trade as it will leave me with 20 trades and one boost left still with minimum five upgrades wanted, but losing so many points week on week is brutal
Genuinely a bit unsure what to do this week. Initially was thinking of Short or Daniel out to a Sinclair or Clark (potentially via DPP), but that goes against getting rookies off the field. And then Meek is an out. Any help would be appreciated.
In your position I would just lock Xerri in. I would predict him to be R1 for the rest of the year, plus he has a great run of fixtures in the near future and is still rising in price.
Am I right in trading out clay hall over knevitt? Both haven’t played in a while, but hoping knevitt more of a chance after he comes back from injury in 1-2 weeks?
Ok, TDK likely out and Boyd being my R3 complicates things…
With TDK having the R12 bye, there are 2 options, stick with original trades and cop a 0 IF he’s out, or involve TDK in the trades;
TU: Bice, Daniel, SPP -> Tom Green, Rozee, El-Hawli
TD: Daniel, SPP, TDK -> Marshall, Brayshaw, El-Hawli ($126K at the bank)
Obviously thinking stick with TU if TDK isn’t named out, and feel free to drop any other suggestions
Hey JJ, solid team but I think the mids need some help so I would look at doing Cleary and Bice to a rookie and one of the $500-550k ish mids like Dunkley, Green or Anderson. Then if TDK’s out, you can boost him either go to Marshall or swap Flynn to R2 and you can bring in Sinclair or Zorko perhaps.
Sorry for being dense – If I have TDK as R2, and he doesn’t play, instead of copping a donut if Boyd is my R3, am I correct that I would then get my flex score as his replacement? I don’t need to move TDK into Flex position for any reason do I? My understanding of flex is that it replaces whatever is the lowest score out of the 22 players?
I’m just checking that I don’t need to move TDK (if he is out) to the flex position?
yep correct! Sorry probably poor wording on my behalf – regardless of where he is on your field (ruck or flex), TDK would be the “23rd man” this week and his zero won’t count towards your score.
Or if you’re a dud like me who still has Flynn, you can move him to R3 and hope he can turn in a full game like his final quarter last week….
Funny you mention Sims. Wouldn’t be going TDK to Simms but if he keeps his spot in the team I’m thinking maybe a Boyd to Sims, Flynn into R2 TDK R3 and then can use the Flex again for someone like Hewett i have sitting on the pine.
Potential TDK options if out. I would prefer not to trade him for a 1 week injury. Weighing up sticking to my long-term plan vs trying to manage this weeks problem.
TU – Change original plans and miss preferred rookie trades. Means i can hold TDK and cover with Marshall via DPP, but also means trading Trainor (instead of Cleary) and bringing in O’Connell (instead of El-Hawli).
Bice, Trainor, Oliver > O’Connell, Sinclair, Marshall
TD – Stick to original plans, cop a donut (if Maley is out) but get my preferred rookies and cash gen for my Bont / Butters raid in R13.
Bice, Cleary, Oliver > El-Hawli, Sinclair, Phillipou (or Jiath)
Updated trades assuming TDK is out, bringing in El-Hawli and either;
TU: Gawn and Green (8k left)
TD: Brayshaw and Marshall (126k left)
Can also get Butters/Bont in place of Brayshaw
TU – Daniel / Bice / Flynn to Sinclair / Rozee / El Hawli
TD – Nank / Bice / Flynn to Sinclair / Xerri / Boxshall
Unsure if nank to xerri at this stage of the season is worth it when i can bring in two premos compared to 1 and an uber. Forces me to play extra rook on field
Big what if… but
TDK out for another week next week would mean 3 weeks without our R2 or wherever you have him. Or what if pittonet plays well and keeps pitto in team with TDK? Thats also a disaster. The more I think about it the more I think he may need to go
Had my trades sorted until Tom DeKoning confirmed out. He is my R2 (with Xerri) and A Reid as R3. Chad Warner my Flex. So what is better :
TU (Original plan) – OUT – Short, Bice & Cleary – IN – Sinclair, Dunkley & Simpson/Sims
TD – OUT DeKoning & Short – IN Marshall & Whitfield and save my final boost
Comment below for saving the boost version of TU of OUT – Bice & Kako – IN – Sinclair & El Hawli
With the news of TDK out and his rapidly approaching bye, people are floating out Rowan Marshall as a replacement. What about Luke Jackson instead?
Yes the 148 BE is large. But Darcy is out and Jackson is absolutely capable of approaching that with his massive ceiling. He’ll be a top 3 or 4 forward this year.
Worth while to TDK to Jackson? Or better off holding/looking at RoMa?
Thoughts on Goldstein as a value play. He could make 100k and has the round 16 bye so could be swapped to Gawn coming off the bye who will hopefully have dropped in price
TU: Do it, could be a massive pod
TD: Don’t do it, he’s 36, way too risky
Goldy looks a bit tired imo .
My worry would be do essendon chase a ruckman in the mid season and play him? Also goldy has English this week. Only one ruckman has tonned against him in 6 weeks. That was Jackson in R4. Several have gone sub 80? It’s a risky play.
What about just TDK to Marshall? Nothing wrong with holding Flynn for a week and he’ll outscore El-Hawli. Then next week you can do Flynn and Bice out and have a better idea of which rookie to go for
Is it worth keeping Bice though or do I just bank the money and get El Hawli. I have no boosts left is my other issue. Can focus on other downgrades and trades
Personally I think there’s nothing wrong with holding Bice and Flynn and would only be moving them as part of an upgrade cause otherwise you end up with Saad on field which just doesn’t seem like a good outcome for me
I looked at this too (as Sheldrick can really play), but Mills playing reserves this week, so Sheldrick might make way next week?
Having said that, finding good cash cows is obviously very tough at the moment – Erasmus, Saad, Gross & Boxshall could all end up being the SUB this week
don’t mind getting Marshall, especially if you have Boyd at R3. You then have some ruck cover for the run home if marshall misses a game you know Boyd will play and score ok
Tossing up between Clark and Brayshaw this week. Getting Clark will allow me to bank some cash to put towards Bont + Butters post round 12 bye.
Not owning Brayshaw has been a big reason why I am not ranked in the top 1000 currently. Is it time to just bite the bullet and get him in despite his high BE?
TU: Jordan Clark 216k ITB
TD: Andrew Brayshaw 77k ITB
Who should I downgrade Moraes to
TU-Boxshall
TD-El Hawli
Note that they will be on field.
Ill have 180k itb if I go with Boxshall and have 137k if I choose hawli instead.
Ill also have to replace short with a boost. (23 trades left with 2 boosts after this)
TU-Clark 93k ITB with Boxshall
TD- Zorko 81k ITB with Boxshall
Also comment if you think there are any other better options since I’m not too sold on either of them.
Can’t get dale either because of byes unfortunately.
TDK is my Flex
R1 & R2 are X and Gawn.
I can move things around and get TDK to R3 and avoid a donut.
I am leaning to holding TDK.
T/U Hold TDK @R3
T/D Trade TDK to any under 550K player as Flex.
(note I have burnt though more trades than I would have liked)
Thanks.
El Hawli as one trade down and 2 upgrades this week
TU: Sinclair and Whitfield
TD: Sinclair and Zorko
Comment: Whitfield and Zorko
Whitfield and Zorko
Hi all,
Who goes first ??
TU Daniel
TD Bice
Thanks
TU: Kako, SPP, Daniel > El-Hawli, Sinclair, Holmes. (Completes Def even though 2 will sit in Mids for now)
TD: SPP, Daniel, Bice > El-Hawli, Sinclair, Holmes (Completes Def as well but means playing Lindsay/El-Hawli on field for a week or two)
TD Leaves more $$ for the next upgrade.
Bice – El Hawli
Oliver – Sinclair
Daniel – Rankine
TU – Worth pulling the cord on oliver and daniel
TD – Look at other options first
Trade Oliver at his bye if you have held this long. Daniel can go now as he is R12.
T/U
Out: Prior, Daniel, Oliver
In: El-Hawli, Martin, Dunkley
T/D
Out: Prior, Daniel, Oliver
In: El-Hawli, Warner, Rozee/Sinclair
TU trade SPP or
TD trade Daniel
MM…SPP is The Number 1 trade out…has been exceptional given his first game shocker of 18 and has made 209 large but his BE of 111…Peatling at 452 with DPP..and no Crouch… is a good replacement while Phillpou, at 313 BE 50, plays The Eagles…could be a long term option as he is in The Saints best 22…
TU Sinclair
TD NAS
Sorry who is NAS?
Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera (NWM)
That’s why I was confused – I knew who NWM was, not realizing his first name.
Meek has been left in melbourne and will miss this week, after 2 terrible scores and BE of 200+ is it ok swing the axe? Have Marshall at flex so will be able to pick anyone, thinking Whitfield.
Also bit lost on dropping Short now or waiting 2 weeks as richmond have north and essendon.
T/U trade Meek hold short
T/D trade Short hold Meek
Trade both
Port’s Bergman training with the midfield.. Possible tag on Holmes this week?
Moraes training with the 2’s 🙁
Bergman tagged Dawson last week
Lazza
Or Bailey Smith ?????
So…Lazza or Bazza??
Bice + Daniel out
Whitfield + Saad in + 80k in bank
TU – Good trades
TD – Reconsider
Daniel out and Nic Martin in?
TU – yes
TD – no
Cheers
only if you dont need to work on anything anywhere else. I was going to trade out daniel, then reminding myself that i have other areas to work on.
Three trades this week (Sinclair and Clark in). Daniel, Bice and …. out
TU L.Ashcroft
TD Cerra
Good trade or not
Bice and flynn out then saad and Zorko in Via flex, subbing trainor into flex and zorko in defense.
This leaves me with 152k itb
TU: Tom Green/Anderson this week (540k for a mid)
TD: Merrett next week
Is Visentini a solid downgrade for Flynn at Flex?
TU – Yes
TD – No
Serious questions please
TU – J Clark
TD – C Rozee
Or Dunkley?
He played well with a good HTA %, but I would wait until Visentini is picked for his third game to do this move
One of Sweet & Soldo could come into Ports team in the next few weeks
Likely going: Bice > Rookie (Pending teams)
Along with that..
TU:
Daniel & Cleary > Warner & Rozee
(Rozee will complete my defence once he gains DPP & suits my byes, not enough $$ to afford Merrett if upgrade Daniel)
TD:
Cleary > Merrett
(This options means holding Daniel)
Thoughts? Thanks in advance!
Was a post earlier this year mentioning Sicily’s stats are similar to his previous years, only thing down is his DE due to a bunch of failed hero kicks into the corridor. Well now his DE has gone up after last week where he reigned in his kicking a bit. Proven premium. Reckon he’s a decent POD.
I’m also considering backing L.Ryan to return to premo, but think this is far riskier.
These are my trades so far:
Bice + FOS + Daniel out
L.Ryan + Sicily + Boxshall in
TU – go for it
TD – get Holmes instead of Ryan
Comment – leave Ryan out and only do 2 trades (next week I’ll have the cash for NWM/Whitfield)
Skip Holmes and Ryan, save a trade for next week where I can afford Whitfield or NWM
TU – Dunkley
TD – Green (POD)
My team before trades has eight round 12 bye players on field. With this in mind, is it worth boosting Cerra to Whitfield? Other trades are Bice and Daniel to El Hawli and Sinclair/Zorko
TU: Do it, take the opportunity and get in the potential D1 for the rest of the season
TD: Save the boost, bank some cash and reassess next week. Neither player will have dramatically change in price
Looking for a defender. Rozee almost certain to get DPP
TU: Clark
TD: Rozee
Like comments for Sicily
Sicily
Or go all out and get Whitfield and have no money??
I have Meek and TDK as rucks lmao. I am so tempted to drop them both and Daniel for Gawn, Xerri and a rookie. Feels like a stupid rage trade as it will leave me with 20 trades and one boost left still with minimum five upgrades wanted, but losing so many points week on week is brutal
Tu: Daniel + kako > Sinclair + boxshall/el hawli
Td: hold trades with 21 left
Tu: Daniel + kako > Sinclair + boxshall/el hawli
Td: hold trades with 21 left
TU – Ned long to Whitfield
TD – Sydney Cleary to Sicily
Thoughts on Sicily ?
Thanks
T/up Daniel Bice for Warner Sinclair
T/D Humphrey Bice for Warner Sinclair
I watched first quarter of North game and Daniel had it 9 times.
Came back at 3/4 time and he was only up to 13 touches and he finished ok
What happened in the middle quarters? I read he had some Physio work done?
Darcy Cameron the next most reliable ruck after Gawn, Xerri and TDK?
Been quality this year but gets score so harshly.
Genuinely a bit unsure what to do this week. Initially was thinking of Short or Daniel out to a Sinclair or Clark (potentially via DPP), but that goes against getting rookies off the field. And then Meek is an out. Any help would be appreciated.
D: Sheezel, Holmes, Roberts, Short, Reid, Bice (Stone, Carroll)
M: Brayshaw, Daicos, Merrett, Neale, Callaghan, LAshcroft, Lindsay, Hustwaite (Moraes, FOS, Boxshall)
R: Xerri, Meek (Boyd)
F: Petracca, Smith, Rankine, JHF, Macrae, Daniel (Cleary, Kako)
Flex: Maric
ITB: 21.9k
With TDK looking likely to miss on Friday he almost becomes a must trade with only one game in the next three weeks.
My only other ruck is Xerri, so the question becomes:
TU: Pay full price for Gawn to complete rucks
TD: Jump on Marshall at a value price
Comment: Hold / look at other options
TDK has a larynx injury sustained during the week for those unaware
I’m kind of torn cause my target would be Xerri who is also missing round 12 so it feels like the wrong time to bring him in
In your position I would just lock Xerri in. I would predict him to be R1 for the rest of the year, plus he has a great run of fixtures in the near future and is still rising in price.
Who is your R3. Do you have a DPP like Sims?
R3 is Boyd sadly. Greatly limits flexibility with trades and means that I’d be copping a donut if I held
I had already decided to go TDK to Xerri before any news.
Worth using my final boost to go from TDK to Xerri if he’s out?
TU: yes
TD: no
I do have Marshall at Flex and Reid at R3 so I can hold TDK for a week without copping a doughnut
Only if out
Put up a couple of posts and seem to be getting mixed responses heavily on either end of the polling.
Is it worth boosting to trade out Caleb Daniel this week? Based on my funds, I am in the position to do either of the following moves this week.
Tu:
Daniel > Warner
Cleary > Rozee
Td:
Cleary > Merrett (This means holding Daniel)
How is your r12 bye?
Caleb Daniel to
TU: SInclair
TD: Holmes
Genuinely curious for some thoughts as I think one has to stay.
Who is most likely to reach their BE
TU Flynn
TD Bice
Am I right in trading out clay hall over knevitt? Both haven’t played in a while, but hoping knevitt more of a chance after he comes back from injury in 1-2 weeks?
Need to be brave, bold and upgrade defence this week, have 2 boosts left
Out Bice, Daniel, SPP
In zorko, Whitfield, Boxshall with $500 left.
TU do it now,
Td no, go the value option, instead of Whitfield put in a Holmes or B Dale and pocket 96k
I think to clear up my earlier questions. This is only if TDK is out who I can cover with Marshall to avoid a doughnut.
TU: TDK, Bice & Cleary to Xerri, Dale & Sims (uses last boost)
TD: TDK & Cleary to Dale and Visentini
Comment: Stick to original plan of getting rookies off field and cover TDK for the week
TU: Bice & Cleary to Dale & Sims and bench TDK for Marshall
Ok, TDK likely out and Boyd being my R3 complicates things…
With TDK having the R12 bye, there are 2 options, stick with original trades and cop a 0 IF he’s out, or involve TDK in the trades;
TU: Bice, Daniel, SPP -> Tom Green, Rozee, El-Hawli
TD: Daniel, SPP, TDK -> Marshall, Brayshaw, El-Hawli ($126K at the bank)
Obviously thinking stick with TU if TDK isn’t named out, and feel free to drop any other suggestions
Went Davidson to Chad Warner last week
Def – Sheezel, Dale, Roberts, Short, Reid, Bice (Trainor, Stone)
Mid – Neale, Trac, Rozee, Warner, W.Ashcroft, Holmes, L Ashcroft, Lindsey (Knevitt, C.Hall, Huswaite)
Ruc – Xerri, TDK (Boyd)
Fwd – Smith, Rankine, JHF, Macrae , Daniel, C.Cleary (E.Hewett, Kako)
Flex – Flynn
$43,400 ITB, 27 trades left, 3 boosts
I’m a a little stuck on what to do this week, Any help/advice/feedback would be appreciated
Hey JJ, solid team but I think the mids need some help so I would look at doing Cleary and Bice to a rookie and one of the $500-550k ish mids like Dunkley, Green or Anderson. Then if TDK’s out, you can boost him either go to Marshall or swap Flynn to R2 and you can bring in Sinclair or Zorko perhaps.
TDK ISNT PLAYING
IF YOU DONT HAVE A SUBSTITUTE FOR HIM HE IS A MUST TRADE
or, you can use him as the flex this week and take the zero, which won’t count towards your score.
yea
Sorry for being dense – If I have TDK as R2, and he doesn’t play, instead of copping a donut if Boyd is my R3, am I correct that I would then get my flex score as his replacement? I don’t need to move TDK into Flex position for any reason do I? My understanding of flex is that it replaces whatever is the lowest score out of the 22 players?

Or if you’re a dud like me who still has Flynn, you can move him to R3 and hope he can turn in a full game like his final quarter last week….
TU or a TD TRADE
tdk to thomas sims
OR TDK TO MARSHALL
Who should I trade first
TU: Hustwaite
TD: C.Hall
hustwaite will come back most likely with an injury from someone else
Nash is back next week so that’s one more rung down the pecking order for Hustwaite. He’s get games but it won’t be every week.
Daniel replacement:
TU: Rankine
TD: N.Martin
Comment Luke Jackson
Which would trade cheers. TU— Cleary
TD—-Daniel
Hi all,
If TDK out
TU go all out with a boost to get Gawn
TD Marshall
Thanks
TDK to:
TU: Visentini
TD: Marshall
Comment: Sims
Sims
Funny you mention Sims. Wouldn’t be going TDK to Simms but if he keeps his spot in the team I’m thinking maybe a Boyd to Sims, Flynn into R2 TDK R3 and then can use the Flex again for someone like Hewett i have sitting on the pine.
In: D.Zorko, J.Dunkley, C.Simpson
Out: R.Bice, C.Daniel (dpp), C.Cleary
T/U
T/D
Thoughts best rookie to get this week
TU Wicks
TD Simpson
Thanks
TU: Rozee
TD: Green
TU Dunkley
TD Serong
Potential TDK options if out. I would prefer not to trade him for a 1 week injury. Weighing up sticking to my long-term plan vs trying to manage this weeks problem.
TU – Change original plans and miss preferred rookie trades. Means i can hold TDK and cover with Marshall via DPP, but also means trading Trainor (instead of Cleary) and bringing in O’Connell (instead of El-Hawli).
Bice, Trainor, Oliver > O’Connell, Sinclair, Marshall
TD – Stick to original plans, cop a donut (if Maley is out) but get my preferred rookies and cash gen for my Bont / Butters raid in R13.
Bice, Cleary, Oliver > El-Hawli, Sinclair, Phillipou (or Jiath)
Who for C.Daniel?
T/U – Rozee
T/D – Sinclair
Which one will get the bigger score this week (Will bring in the other next week, as neither should see drastic price changes)
TU: Whitfield
TD: Sinclair
Any idea who to Trade Daniel for? Will have 648k if I get rid of him
Already have the likes of Whitfield, Holmes, Sinclair, Clark, Sheezel
NAS, lowest score of 96. Mr consistent
Or Rozee
Updated trades assuming TDK is out, bringing in El-Hawli and either;
TU: Gawn and Green (8k left)
TD: Brayshaw and Marshall (126k left)
Can also get Butters/Bont in place of Brayshaw
Comment;
TU: Butters
TD: Bont
check those bye rounds!
TDK at flex > Wicks for cash gen
Hewett > Rankine
Clarry > Brayshaw
Which leaves me 6.8k itb
T/U
T/D
?
Had Flynn and Bice traded for Whitfield and El Houli
My Rucks are TDK and Xerri
Do I change my trades around if so who? If not do I just cop the donut?
TU – Daniel / Bice / Flynn to Sinclair / Rozee / El Hawli
TD – Nank / Bice / Flynn to Sinclair / Xerri / Boxshall
Unsure if nank to xerri at this stage of the season is worth it when i can bring in two premos compared to 1 and an uber. Forces me to play extra rook on field
Xerri is uber uber
TU Holmes
TD Clark
Whitfield
TU Gawn
TD Marshall and use the remaining for another premo
Big what if… but
TDK out for another week next week would mean 3 weeks without our R2 or wherever you have him. Or what if pittonet plays well and keeps pitto in team with TDK? Thats also a disaster. The more I think about it the more I think he may need to go
thats what i thought when i saw the r12 bye. They could just rest TDK until round 13
Unsure on who is greater priority to trade out
T/U Daniel
T/D Short
To trade in
T/U Sinclair
T/D Clarke
What is everyone doing with TDK????
He now misses R10 and R12… who do we bring in?
TU – Marshall and bank the 235k for other upgrades
TD – Pay overs for Gawn
Comment – Hold
Any suggestions?
I’m thinking Marshall to hold down fort until later in year where we upgrade to Gawn. Use that money to upgrade other positions
Had my trades sorted until Tom DeKoning confirmed out. He is my R2 (with Xerri) and A Reid as R3. Chad Warner my Flex. So what is better :
TU (Original plan) – OUT – Short, Bice & Cleary – IN – Sinclair, Dunkley & Simpson/Sims
TD – OUT DeKoning & Short – IN Marshall & Whitfield and save my final boost
Comment below for saving the boost version of TU of OUT – Bice & Kako – IN – Sinclair & El Hawli
As per above – 3rd option
OUT – Bice & Kako IN Sinclair & El Hawli
TU : Yep
TD : Nope
Which option please
TU Gawn in
TD Rookie off field
With the news of TDK out and his rapidly approaching bye, people are floating out Rowan Marshall as a replacement. What about Luke Jackson instead?
Yes the 148 BE is large. But Darcy is out and Jackson is absolutely capable of approaching that with his massive ceiling. He’ll be a top 3 or 4 forward this year.
Worth while to TDK to Jackson? Or better off holding/looking at RoMa?
Jackson worth waiting a week, but very up and down despite being current top 3 forward. Marshall perhaps or hold a week. TDK great flex.
Bice to El-Hawli locked in
TU: one more trade, TDK to Gawn
TD: boost and TDK to Cameron, Flynn to Sinclair
Last question;
TU: Tom Green
TD: Jordan Dawson (terrific run home and cheaper)
Is it time to get rid of Matt Roberts. His breakeven is 135 and he scored 72.
TU or TD
Is TDK now a must trade?
Potentially miss the next 3 weeks with the bye coming up.
What is better?
TU – Trade SHORT for WHITFIELD
TD – Trade BICE for SINCLAIR
Can’t afford Bice to Whitfield
Or SHORT for SINCLAIR
TU – Yep
TD – One of the above options
Thinking one of the following options
T/U Out – Bice/Hewitt In – J.Clark/El-Hawli
T/D Out – Caleb Daniel/Hewitt In – Whitfield/El-Hawli
TU – Bice, Oliver and Clay Hall – Ash, Merrett and El-Hawli
TD – Bice, Oliver and Hewett/Cleary – El Hawli, Merrett and Rankine
TU – Flynn to Marshall, Move TDK to flex
TD – TDK straight to Xerri
Comment – Field Flynn and hold TDK
Boyd is R3 in both scenarios
Tu – Hold TDK, field Flynn
SPP and (Flynn OR Daniel) out
Trade in (one of the following 3)
TU- Libba
TD- Sinclair
Comment- Rankine
Thoughts on Goldstein as a value play. He could make 100k and has the round 16 bye so could be swapped to Gawn coming off the bye who will hopefully have dropped in price
TU: Do it, could be a massive pod
TD: Don’t do it, he’s 36, way too risky
You’ve been listening to Abs Magic
Nah, just don’t want to pay up for Gawn and don’t really love Marshall’s run or want to lock him in for the season
I posed this q earlier in the week and got very,very,very roundly downvoted. Same logic and still mulling it over.
Goldy looks a bit tired imo .
My worry would be do essendon chase a ruckman in the mid season and play him? Also goldy has English this week. Only one ruckman has tonned against him in 6 weeks. That was Jackson in R4. Several have gone sub 80? It’s a risky play.
Not for me
In my team it would look like:
TU: TDK and Bice —> Goldstein and Sinclair
Or
TD: TDK, Bice and Cleary —> Marshall, Sinclair and El-Hawli
Tdk injury has ruined my plans
TU: TDK to RoMa Flynn to El Hawli
TD: TDK to El Hawli Bice to Whitfield Flynn As Ruck 2
Xerri is my other ruck btw
Comment for
do I just keep TDK and the 0 and do my original trades
Flynn to El Hawli Bice to Whitfield
Or bite the bullet and get Gawn in and not get Whitfield.
What about just TDK to Marshall? Nothing wrong with holding Flynn for a week and he’ll outscore El-Hawli. Then next week you can do Flynn and Bice out and have a better idea of which rookie to go for
Is it worth keeping Bice though or do I just bank the money and get El Hawli. I have no boosts left is my other issue. Can focus on other downgrades and trades
As in keep Flynn but downgrade Bice to El Hawli
Actually might take this opportunity to downgrade Kako to El-Hawli
Personally I think there’s nothing wrong with holding Bice and Flynn and would only be moving them as part of an upgrade cause otherwise you end up with Saad on field which just doesn’t seem like a good outcome for me
TU – N Martin
TD – Holmes
Wgich should I trade out this week
TU : Short (assuming he makes Sundays team
TD : Bice
Harry Sharp as a good downgrade. Named on field so shouldn’t be sub. $156k DPP.
TU: nah. Better options
TD: not a bad idea at all
Sheldrick as a good downgrade. Named on field so shouldn’t be sub. $169k
TU: nah. Better options
TD: not a bad idea at all
I looked at this too (as Sheldrick can really play), but Mills playing reserves this week, so Sheldrick might make way next week?
Having said that, finding good cash cows is obviously very tough at the moment – Erasmus, Saad, Gross & Boxshall could all end up being the SUB this week
TU: Dale
V
TD: Zorko
T/U – Sinclair & Holmes
T/D – Green & Dale
T/U Bice to Sinclair
T/D TDK to Gawn (no donut)
Thanks
Daniel, Brice and Short to Sinclair, Clark and Brock/Gross
TU: looks good
TD: too sideways, and have another look
Whose trading TDK and playing Flynn R2 for a short term?
Would love to grab Ed richards or Whitfield this week for TDK
TU: Yes, sending it.
TD: pass, too risky

Hi everyone!
Would really appreciate some advice on what to do with this team.
24 trades 4 boosts left. 172,100 itb
Whitfield, Sheezel, Clark, Roberts, Reid, Bice
(Carroll, Buss)
Daicos, Merrett, Serong, Anderson, Rozee, Petracca, Lashcroft, Lindsay .
(Hustwaite, Knevitt, Gross
Xerri, TDK (Reidy)
JHF, Smith, Macrae, Daniel, Hewett, Cleary
(Kako, Erasmus
Flex-Flynn
I was thinking of going
Bice->Sinclair
TDK-> Rowan Marshall
Matt Flynn-> Saad
This would leave me with 308k itb and allow me upgrade next week.
Would love any thoughts on this.
Thank you for all your help.
I’d keep Flynn and trade Hewett
Do We know how long TDK is out for or how long does this injury last for ?
tu-gawn for tdk
td- richards for daneil
xerri is other ruck*
TU – Caleb Daniel -> Izak Rankine
TD – Tom De Koning -> Luke Jackson
Daniel and Jackson likely to lose money, Rankine likely to gain.
Basically, do I go for a worse financial move to avoid the donut this week, with the possibility TDK will be rested again next week ahead of his bye?
TU Whitfield and Ash
TD Whitfield and Clark
TDK out for… (can’t afford Gawn and already have Xerri)
TU: Marshall
TD: D. Cameron
don’t mind getting Marshall, especially if you have Boyd at R3. You then have some ruck cover for the run home if marshall misses a game you know Boyd will play and score ok
TU : Zorko
TD : Sinclair
Comment (see below) – pay up for Whitfield / NWM
From above
TU : Whitfield
TD : NWM
Tossing up between Clark and Brayshaw this week. Getting Clark will allow me to bank some cash to put towards Bont + Butters post round 12 bye.
Not owning Brayshaw has been a big reason why I am not ranked in the top 1000 currently. Is it time to just bite the bullet and get him in despite his high BE?
TU: Jordan Clark 216k ITB
TD: Andrew Brayshaw 77k ITB
Any love for TDK to English?
Who should I downgrade Moraes to
TU-Boxshall
TD-El Hawli
Note that they will be on field.
Ill have 180k itb if I go with Boxshall and have 137k if I choose hawli instead.
Ill also have to replace short with a boost. (23 trades left with 2 boosts after this)
TU-Clark 93k ITB with Boxshall
TD- Zorko 81k ITB with Boxshall
Also comment if you think there are any other better options since I’m not too sold on either of them.
Can’t get dale either because of byes unfortunately.
TU: Sinclair
TD: Dunkley
Trade out:
TU: Daniel
TD: Flynn
TDK is my Flex
R1 & R2 are X and Gawn.
I can move things around and get TDK to R3 and avoid a donut.
I am leaning to holding TDK.
T/U Hold TDK @R3
T/D Trade TDK to any under 550K player as Flex.
(note I have burnt though more trades than I would have liked)
Thanks.
Is Xerri a must have?
Dont have Gawn either
Got the TDK issue…
Get rid of Bice or Short this week?
TU: Bice
TD: Short
Better option to bring in as a bench rookie?
TU: Erasmus
TD: Simpson
