Really need to upgrade my last fwd spot. Had Rankine and Fisher, but had to trade them out and have been running Sexton as my F6.
TU Moore for no trades left
TD Hold fire and keep my last 2 trades or look at someone like Curnow, Harry or Keays for 1 trade
TU Get a fwd in for the $500000 mark or less for last premo = 1 trade left
TD Run Sexton/Dowling and keep 2 trades until finals and lock to upgrade then
I need to get rid of Oliver I can’t do it anymore, seems like he disappears for a half in every match.
If I trade him out i’ll have 539.4k in the bank.
I’m thinking upgrade to either
TU: Steele
TD: Ed Richards
Unless there’s any better trades for that price? Thoughts please !! Thank you
Hi I need some help to finish my team. I have 4 trades and 1 boost. $282ooo.
This is my side.
Backs
Sneeze, ndaicos, j.clark, l.ryan, Holmes, Houston, schoenmaker, e.phillips
Mids
Neale, born, cripps, rozee, green, seeing, Steele, yeo, Humphries, Campbell, rawlinson
Rucks
English, Grundy, Krueger
Forwards
Flanders, Heaney, Zorro, Moore, Jackson, Dowling, manuagh, mOniz w.
I’m sitting 2nd in my work place league. So a lot of bragging rights on the line.
Team looks good. If you can’t finish worse than 2nd, I’d hold for Rankine in a couple of weeks. You’ll then have 2-3 trades left to cover the last couple of weeks of finals.
Looks like Fisher has lost his role at the club to McKercher.
So I am thinking I need to upgrade my D6 whilst he still has value otherwise I will end up with a Zac Dawson type.
Was holding Fisher and Oliver in the hope one or both would come good but alas, it seems not. Can only trade one though at this stage. Who to trade first?
My reasoning for Cripps over Neale is because Neale faces possibly Windhager in 2 weeks and then Bedford in 3, both during SC finals. I’d only have to worry about Cripps facing either in Rd24
I actually like the Cripps pick over NEale just to be a bit different and save some cash but I would point out that Windhager is still out for 3 weeks so unlikely to be back in time to tag Neale while Cripps should cop him in round 24
Just be aware that Windhager will more than likely still be out injured for Round 21 – as did a hammie last week, and was listed as being “4 weeks away” on the St Kilda injury list last week
And Brisbane play Collingwood in round 23 & then Essendon in round 24 – which are both teams that don’t usually tag
So Neale could definitely help you win the Preliminary & Grand Finals in supercoach
Both selections should go well though – as they are both in very good form
Does anyone know why Schoenmaker didn’t play for the St Kilda reserves team (Sandringham) on the weekend?
He was listed as “Omitted” on the team sheets last week, but it looks like he didn’t play on the weekend
Is there a (small) chance that Rossy Lyon just rested him for the weekends game, and therefore he might come straight back into the St Kilda senior side this week ?
I would certainly like to have some defensive cover again – if Schoenmaker can get another game this weekend 🙂
I could, but lack of cash means I’m looking at players worth $495k and below; so T Kelly, McCluggage, Durham, Keays, types. None of whom are massively inspiring.
I need to win to make finals. If I bring in Zorko for Comben, I’ll have a full team of premo’s except Dowling and or Mannagh who I can loophole (my other benched forward will not play another game). In a few weeks I can use the 80k to upgrade either Dowling or Mannagh.
T/U Trade Comben to Zorko and use 80k to upgrade either Dowling or Mannagh in 2 weeks.
T/D No trade, keep Comben and save my last 2 trades if I make finals with 171k in the bank
Finishing my side, do I use my last 2 trades to get rid of rowell for walsh and jhye clark for carroll, as I need to win this week to make my league finals. Or hold trades and hope rowell goes nuts!!
Might be left field but has anyone had a look at Mason Wood as a FWD option? If you take out the game where he got injured and scored 8, he’s averaging 91 for the year. All of Saints remaining games are at Marvel so no travel.
Want to TU Gawn because he has been and probably still is the most reliable
Also I have had Xerri since the beginning so don’t want any more people jumping on (especially x Gawn owners)
Just depends on your gut feeling
4 trades left and still 2 away from full premo. Bring in Carroll this week to create the funds for upgrades over the next couple of weeks?
I can’t justify trading Dowling or Evans for a premo yet as they have negative break evens
Who to bring in for my last mid upgrade.
Cannot afford Neale.
Going for league win.
Current mids are: Bont, Butters, Dunkley, Merrett, Green, Walsh, Steele.
TU: Serong (most have him in their team)
TD: Sinclair (tempting unique)
I’m finding it a bit depressing reading “trade talk” just before round 20, and thinking to myself “if only”….. Perhaps I’ll start planning Season 2025 instead!
Thinking that Dawson has to go and that Fisher is wasted as Dowling could be used instead?
Any other thoughts would be great including what premium mid best to bring in as well as the following questions….
T/U Freijah and Dawson out 102k rookie and premium in (hold Fisher) or
T/D Fisher (before drops more in price) and Dawson out 102k rookie (Dowling fwd coverage) and Premium in ( leaves extra in bank for last 3 trades)?
Also after this move wondering what strategy to take with 3 trades left and remaining money
T/U Look at just upgrading(sideways) current best 22? or
T/D Consider getting a 23rd premium (midfielder or defender) and swing a Martin or Daicos type?
3 trades left is plenty for your team. Hold them for injuries or to make sideways pod moves in last two weeks when its league finals and everyone in top 2k has no trades left.
Can easily make up 300+ points in those weeks especially if carnage continues and potential that teams rest their key players
The thing I am mulling with Dawson is that he has looked banged up for a while now and after a week off he might be refreshed and really hit form for SuperCoach finals. thinking of trading JHF instead because at least Dawson won’t drop in price this week. 7 trades and 1 boost left and are now playing to win league finals..
TU: Trade JHF & Crisp
TD: Trade Dawson & Crisp
Or…… (See next post)
It would be expected that Dawson misses one week but he has to pass certain criteria and it is all based on individual symptoms and recovery.
Just this week WCE’s announced that Liam Duggan would require another week before being considered to play after suffering concussion a fortnight ago.
“Under the current protocol, all players suffering a concussion will miss at least one match (assuming standard fixturing) and sometimes they will miss more than one match depending on an individual’s recovery and other factors such as concussion history, etc. ”
Been a busy week but the team looks almost gone.
1 trade left and I have Nank and Kreuger in the ruck and will take a doughnut if Nank isn’t traded because I don’t have cover.
There is also Fisher who is going to rot in my forward line they way he is playing.
Best trade for Nankervis (Have English)
TU Xerri
TD Bring back Gawn after trading him for Nank
Other suggestions?
Should I trade Gawn regardless of whether he is selected?
TU Trade as he will perform well below his best
TD Hold. He will quickly get back to his best despite the injury.
Was able to cover with Jackson whilst dealing with other issues and he wasn’t losing cash whilst on the bench (but probably will this week with a BE of 171).
Hi guys
My season is about done, so I’m using my last 2 trades this week. Thinking of bringing in Trelor (could be persuaded otherwise. Perhaphs Walsh). But I need a $118 900 mid rookie. Need ideas on my best option, ideally would be a playing rookie. Happy to take a punt on a one gamer
Thoughts such appreciated
With him Salem out till round 23/24 and Fisher missing with a foot injury again, is it worth using my last trade to get rid of one of them? I’ve got cover so I’m still at 22 with both on the bench
Can we trade coaches…..I am not doing so well since the byes when I was ranked in the 600’s
2 traded left and I still have Rowell in my team… how has he become so poor since the bye!
Im the same, unsure what to do
tu: green
td: brayshaw
TU: Serong
TD: Green
Really need to upgrade my last fwd spot. Had Rankine and Fisher, but had to trade them out and have been running Sexton as my F6.
TU Moore for no trades left

Unless there’s any better trades for that price? Thoughts please !! Thank you
Would need to know rest of MID
Bont Serong Merrett Gulden Green Rozee Yeo Oliver (Dowling, Trew, Bytel)
I bought him cheap too….but he’s scoring cheap also sadly.
Maybe if you trade him, he will go big for me…..
Richards or Holmes
2 trades left and Rowell is a thorn in my side. Should I swap him over to Curnow?
TU: Yes, swap him while you can
TD: No, hold your trades and keep rolling with the 60’s
OUT: Touk & Fisher
IN: Keays & Young/Yeo
Leaves me with 1 trade for the rest of the year but solves the Touk & Fisher issues
TU: Worth it
TD: Need those 3 trades for a rainy day…
Keays loses spot when rankine returns
Last trades – $3k left after
Out: W Dawson + M Rowell
In: C Serong + L. Rawlinson
Leaves Humphries D7, Rowling M9, Kreuger F7/R3.

Caldwell into your Forwards I reckon
Team looks good. If you can’t finish worse than 2nd, I’d hold for Rankine in a couple of weeks. You’ll then have 2-3 trades left to cover the last couple of weeks of finals.
Is Fisher’s role definitely gone and needs to be traded out?
It’s time to rage trade Butters, Dunkley, Neale and Heeney.
Pretty harsh, the game before last they scored a combined 500 points
I have 2 trades left.
Looks like Fisher has lost his role at the club to McKercher.
So I am thinking I need to upgrade my D6 whilst he still has value otherwise I will end up with a Zac Dawson type.
Thumbs up – Stewart
Thumbs down – Richard’s
I am ranked 2200 odd but going the wrong way.
Was holding Fisher and Oliver in the hope one or both would come good but alas, it seems not. Can only trade one though at this stage. Who to trade first?
TU Oliver
TD Fisher
I need to trade out Fisher and I can trade to any mid (swing Caldwell back up front)
Current mid is: Bont, Butters, Green, Serong, LDU, Rozee, Walsh.
I am thinking Cripps for the ride home. TU or TD?
Personally, if you can afford anyone, I would go Lachie Neale over Cripps
Although Cripps has been outstanding over the last 4 or 5 weeks
My reasoning for Cripps over Neale is because Neale faces possibly Windhager in 2 weeks and then Bedford in 3, both during SC finals. I’d only have to worry about Cripps facing either in Rd24
I actually like the Cripps pick over NEale just to be a bit different and save some cash but I would point out that Windhager is still out for 3 weeks so unlikely to be back in time to tag Neale while Cripps should cop him in round 24
Yep – understand where you are coming from
Just be aware that Windhager will more than likely still be out injured for Round 21 – as did a hammie last week, and was listed as being “4 weeks away” on the St Kilda injury list last week
And Brisbane play Collingwood in round 23 & then Essendon in round 24 – which are both teams that don’t usually tag
So Neale could definitely help you win the Preliminary & Grand Finals in supercoach
Both selections should go well though – as they are both in very good form
Thank you both. I clearly got Windhager’s timeline for return very wrong!
Does anyone know why Schoenmaker didn’t play for the St Kilda reserves team (Sandringham) on the weekend?
He was listed as “Omitted” on the team sheets last week, but it looks like he didn’t play on the weekend
Is there a (small) chance that Rossy Lyon just rested him for the weekends game, and therefore he might come straight back into the St Kilda senior side this week ?
I would certainly like to have some defensive cover again – if Schoenmaker can get another game this weekend 🙂
6 trades left.
TU – 1 trade, Fisher to Curnow
TD – 2 trades, downgrade Kreuger, Fisher to Moore
I like Curnow’s matchups over the next few weeks so leaning that way atm
Got 1 trade left.
T/U: use it to trade Dawson to Stewart
T/D: save it and use Dowling as cover for the week
2 trades left
T/U Miller and Fisher to Merrett and Baker (can be used to cover both D & F)
T/D Save the trades, letting Fisher’s value fall while looping Dowling and Humphries to cover Miller.
Can you just trade Touk out? He has to go but it would be good to hold onto one trade
I could, but lack of cash means I’m looking at players worth $495k and below; so T Kelly, McCluggage, Durham, Keays, types. None of whom are massively inspiring.
2 trades left… ouch
T/U upgrade Comben to Zorko, leaves me with 1 trade and 80k to upgrade either Dowling or Mannagh, bearing no injuries.
T/D No trade, keep Comben and save my last 2 trades for finals with 171k in the bank
Lots of T/D, respect. I think T/U.
I need to win to make finals. If I bring in Zorko for Comben, I’ll have a full team of premo’s except Dowling and or Mannagh who I can loophole (my other benched forward will not play another game). In a few weeks I can use the 80k to upgrade either Dowling or Mannagh.
T/U Trade Comben to Zorko and use 80k to upgrade either Dowling or Mannagh in 2 weeks.
T/D No trade, keep Comben and save my last 2 trades if I make finals with 171k in the bank
Finishing my side, do I use my last 2 trades to get rid of rowell for walsh and jhye clark for carroll, as I need to win this week to make my league finals. Or hold trades and hope rowell goes nuts!!
tu: use remaining trades
td: hold
Or any other options?
Might be left field but has anyone had a look at Mason Wood as a FWD option? If you take out the game where he got injured and scored 8, he’s averaging 91 for the year. All of Saints remaining games are at Marvel so no travel.
Super fun option.
If you’re not competing in the Top 1k, then yeah go for it.
Not competing for top 1k but competing for 2 leagues with decent $$ on the line
Yeah, picked him up two weeks ago. Super fun option and owned in 0% of teams
TDK to:
TU: Gawn
TD: Xerri
Want to TU Gawn because he has been and probably still is the most reliable
Also I have had Xerri since the beginning so don’t want any more people jumping on (especially x Gawn owners)
Just depends on your gut feeling
4 trades left and still 2 away from full premo. Bring in Carroll this week to create the funds for upgrades over the next couple of weeks?
I can’t justify trading Dowling or Evans for a premo yet as they have negative break evens
Would you upgrade Curnow to Trealor and move Caldwell into your forwards? This would leave me with 0 trades remaining for the season.
OUT – Kreuger and Fisher
IN – Carroll and Caldwell
Leaves me with $200k ITB and one trade left, which I’ll use to upgrade to my final premo when Dowling peaks
TU Ginnivan
TD Curnow
tu: walsh
td: trealor
TU Dale
TD Richards
Don’t have many options or cash
Salem > A.McGrath?
Yes or no? Can’t really afford anyone else
Or any other suggestions would be elite
Yeah. McGrath is good.
Not a huge ceiling but very reliable.
Who to bring in for my last mid upgrade.
Cannot afford Neale.
Going for league win.
Current mids are: Bont, Butters, Dunkley, Merrett, Green, Walsh, Steele.
TU: Serong (most have him in their team)
TD: Sinclair (tempting unique)
Or comment. Also considering Treloar
Is Treloar injured ??
Not mentioned in the injury list.
5 trades, 250K itb, 21 premos
Out: Kruger, Reville
TU: Ryan and “Trew or other rookie”
TD: 600K premo and”sub 100K/non playing rookie”
Cheers
Correction: Sub 110K rookie
Does Jordan Dawson miss two weeks with concussion ?
Dawson… Hold or Sell?
5 Trades left and 100k itb, full premo(ish), Kerch D6, Jez Cameron F6
T/U – Hold (keep as an M9 loop)
T/D – Use one trade to a Treloar type or two and get Neale/Cripps
TU Richards/Dale
TD Cripps
TDK injury replacement!
TU > Gawn (no.1 in the game when firing)
TD > Xerri (fixture is great)
Or any others?
Pitto
Pitto would be pretty epic
Xerri. That fixture is insane.
I think so too! Strange to go against Gawn but like it
Is Mannah still injured?
Troll? Take yourself somewhere else man!
TDK injury replacement as well, but already have Xerri.
TU > Gawn
TD > English
Comment Grundy our someone else
They say that the Meek shall inherit the earth.
Lloyd Meek for mine. Very underrated.
I’m finding it a bit depressing reading “trade talk” just before round 20, and thinking to myself “if only”….. Perhaps I’ll start planning Season 2025 instead!
Who should I bring in
TU > Dunkley
TD > Cripps
Or Neale. But afraid he may be tagged.
Advice please!! Not sure what to do …
5 trades left (incl 1 boost ) and 15k

Or…. Use the boost and
TU: Trade Dawson, JHF and Crisp to 2 premos and a spud with a view of trading in another premo for the first week of finals..

Is coniglio a bad choice to have as a m9 to loop? Only have around 400k
TU – good idea
TD – look again
I know he hasn’t been scoring the best but has had a hard run the last few games he’s played
Is he in doubt?

Hey team,
Would love to hear your thoughts. I have four trades left and about 200k ITB. I am definitely trading Rowell to Serong.
Should I also trade mckercher to someone like Sinclair, or should I hold seeing as he’ll be back next week?
Love to hear your thoughts!
Just realised I have enough cash to get Neale over Sinclair if that’s a better option?
I think it depends on whether you are playing for overall or league GF win
If just want to win SC Grand Final, then I would hold McKercher for this week – as he is just out with general soreness, and can score well
Which leaves you with 3 x trades for the SC finals
If playing for overall, then do the second trade – and both Sinclair & Neale are good options (and in good form)
trade nank to xerri
tu do

2 trades

Is it worth trading Dawson or Fisher?
60k itb, 2 trades left but don’t have cover for Fisher.
