  1. 8 trades left, teams basically finished but mills d6, tom McCarthy flex.

    With 8 trades would you move on a lachie Neale? Tags incoming and is super frustrating, could sideways to a Daicos or someone!!

    TU – Trade Neale
    TD – Keep

    • I’m saying trade but out of the next 5 games who really tags him? They’ve got port, Carlton, bulldogs, Gold Coast & pies ?
      Might be a bit of attention with port and Carlton but not heavy tags

    • Im holding, will be 4 trades left once team is complete, rather save that for injury. Worst case can loop with McCarthy on bench

      Hoping the bye helps and every chance next game he goes 120 and Dunks or Ash go 80

  2. 8 trades left, prob going to need 3 of these for last premo upgrade.

    Worthing doing a straight swap: Chad Warner to Sam Darcy?

  3. Currently 6 trades left with 22 premos and McCarthy at Flex!

    Is it worth trading A. Clarke and Z. Johnson to C. Mills and rookie to finish side?

    Would be full premo with 4 trades left.

    TU – Yes, make the move

    TD – No, hold for now still 9 rounds left and could be plenty of carnage.

    Cheers everyone!

      • The other 2 trade able players are Erasmus & Carroll.

        Carroll has a -8 BE so he’s most likely a hold and I do like the DPP of Erasmus but he is an option to trade to have a a bit more cash in bank for future luxury or injury trades.

  4. Would you rather?
    TU: Have 22 premos, ignore the flex and have 4 trades to sideway underperforming premos
    TD: Have 23 premos, including flex, and have 2 trades to sideway underperforming premos

    I have the likes of TDK, Neale, Warner, Rankine i’d like to swing if possible

    • In the same predicament, and I reckon 23 premos is the right call. I also have tdk, neale and warner but the whole point of the flex is to make up for anyone that has a bad week. Having a reliable flex can save you from needing those extra trades anyway. So I reckon go for it.

  5. Nine trades left. I don’t wanna go early on McCarthy but it’s the only way I can make this work.
    Merrett -> Bont
    Long -> Darcy
    Hustwaite -> McCarthy

  6. 6 trades left $396k ITB, full premo except flex if you include mills D6 and and Daniel & Warner in my fwd line.

    Already done hustwaite and visentini to butler and McCarthy.

    Now should I save the trade this week leaving me with 4, or use my third trade to turn either Clarke, gray, or day-wicks to my last premo for my flex?

  7. Erasmus, Clarke and Keeler out
    Mills, Butler and Liddy in

    Team has struggled this year, due to some suspicious coaching and a bit of bad luck. 5 trades and 125K left for final mid upgrade

  8. 6 trades remaining with McCarthy as my 23rd currently sitting in my flex.

    TU: Sit tight for a few weeks and hold trades
    TD: Go down to 4 and grab Mills through trading out Carroll & Clarke

    Thinking some coaches will be in a similar spot to myself this week and with still roughly 9 weeks left I’m leaning towards holding the trades personally and hoping McCarthy can be serviceable as my 23rd for the time being. Only risk with this approach is that it may result in needing to use an extra trade long term to get another decent ‘premo’ as Mills will likely be out of reach in 2 trades.

    Interested to hear the thoughts of the community though, cheers!

  9. Who would you trade out:
    TU: Neale
    TD: Will Ashcroft

    Realise Ashcroft is in decent form but who is more likely to bring it home? Whoever gets traded out gets upgraded to Bont

  10. Clarke, Erasmus –> May, Mills

    Gets me to full premo with 9 trades and 1 boost left. Roberts D6, Neale M8, Daniel F6, and Mills flex.

    Trades will be kept for underperforming premos and injuries/suspensions. Targeting bringing in Gawn, Sinclair by finals.

  12. 7 trades left, still need a premium defender and mid to finish my team. Playing for league, sitting 5th of 20.

    TU: Do I use 2 trades this week to get Mills
    TD: Wait it out and let some of my rookies make more cash (Trainor, Carroll, O’Sullivan, Johnson) and then upgrade
