    • Accidentally posted my name, apologies.
      My question was going to be the following;

      Best replacement for Xerri if you already have Gawn and no money in the bank?

      Cheers!

      • English? Also Marshall has a super nice draw even with Heath in the side. Likely wont play Xerri so outside if Gawn again all pretty positive matchups

      • I’ll get a poll going soon.

        I like Grundy if no expense is spared. Gets Roos no Xerri, Giants, Dons and eventually Eagles to finish.

        Grundy over Gawn, yeah. Has more to play for. Max, don’t get me wrong, also bussing. Has Eagles soon.

        RoMo some nice hits.

        DCam defs no w fixture.

        AA ruck interesting. Grundy will pull ahead if he keeps this up. Just been insane.

  1. Martin & Xerri out. Zero Trade Club. Thanks for that, fellas.

    $1043.4 for a RUC and a FWD.

    Current lines are:

    RUC: Jackson & *Xerri*

    FWD: Smith, Rankine, Racca, *Martin*, Darcy & JHF

    Options?

    Gawn & Warner? Nank & Macrae? RoMo & Humph? Grundy & 300ker lol?

    Gawn and Warn the most balanced. Good fixtures for Warner even though he’s been cringe. Max obvs top shelf. Part of me does want to spice it up though.

    Started Nank this year and ruined my life. Be hilarious to circle back and finish w him. More so bc it allows for Macrae.

    RoMo and Humph will be high variance but idm. Good ceilings. Miller out will help Humph.

    Grundy & 300ker honestly not insane w 23rd dropping out. In past years there’s always a mercurial but recently injured FWD bopping around but legit no one atm.

    Thoughts, lads?

    • I’ll throw a left field option. I have TDK with 4 trades left but don’t think I can keep going with him. Considering Jordan Sweet with Visentini gone for the year.

      If you went for him you pick any fwd you want, or even better any mid you want if you have a DPP in mids to move. If you don’t have the DPP option it’s less attractive but an option nonetheless!

    • Any suggestions with the 300ker idea?
      I am playing around with an option that allows me to do the same and grab Grundy, just not sure on who the other bloke is at this stage

  2. Currently in the top 200 and have the opportunity to play aggressive this week.

    Can’t afford to get Xerri upto anyone decent without using 2 trades as I have no money.
    Dcam is priced less but pies have already hinted he will be rested in the run home at some point.

    However, in 2 trades I can get Xerri upto Grundy (who has an amazing run home and could easily end up R1), but will need to downgrade McCarthy in the process who is currently my main bench cover (24th). Leaves me with 1 trade

    Is this worth doing so considering my rank?

    TU: Go for it and get Grundy
    TD: Hold off and reassess

    • Depends how many trades left you have in total. If scraping the barrel for trades, I wouldn’t go Grundy as injuries and suspensions can happen

      • If I want to upgrade Xerri to anyone decent then I will be forced to use 2 trades regardless as stated, no money in the bank.

        I don’t love the options priced below X apart from Dcam who is going to get a rest.

        Grundy could genuinely keep his current form up on the run home and be worth 2 players as he will be my vc/c almost every week.

        Other option is hold X and have his score drop out? Decisions, decisions!

        • So are you saying you have 2 trades left in total? I’m saying it depends how many trades in total you have left. If you have a few and can afford to burn 2, I’d do it. If less then 5, I wouldn’t and just do a single trade to someone like Meek and save the money for other options. Also depends if you have a full premo team yet as well

          • Will be left with 1 trade if I make the 2 to grab Grundy, guess that’s what I’m weighing up, albeit full premo.

            Almost thinking holding X might be a better option that going for Meek, don’t love his run home. Will need to continue to look at my options..
