  1. Need to trade in a replacement for Neale trying to win a prelim and granny, so it’s mostly match up based. Have 567k to spend.

    Rank the following options – Libba, Richards, Green, Touk, Hewett

  2. Is there any chance of Grundy coming back for round 24 or is he definitely out for the season? Don’t know how the concussion protocols work and I only got one trade and got Neale and grundy.

  7. Grundy and Zerrett to go.

    TU Maxy and Dunks

    TD Tingles and Dawson

    Maxy has meek and Cameron. Tingles WC then Freo. I do like Dawson v North last round.

      That’s correct as the Phantom’s Liar called that a few weeks ago
      Probably waiting until H & A has been completed as theres a bye between the start of finals
      Don’t know how it works but gives us some interest

  13. It would be nice if the site didn’t lose so much steam the final few weeks of the season, for those of us deep in finals this is the most important time of our year and in need of solid advice and it sucks seeing the regular contributions and articles just completely die off.

  14. Was very keen to bring Marshall in with last trade – had a dream run against essendon and gws. Does the news that they’re bringing in a debutant ruckman this week hurt his chances though?

    TU – yes, won’t get as much ruck time
    TD – mate, he’s playing against a geriatric (albeit a bit of a legend), he’ll go large regardless

    Thanks!

  15. Only one trade left and will have Laird and Zerret out this week. Will cover Laird with McCarthy for one week, but probably have to replace Zerret. Only have $508k to spend, and not much in my price range. LDU an option, but apparently Sam Walsh a chance this week, is that too risky or possibly a genius left field move?

  16. I have both Grundy and Merrett.

    Dilemma is I have only 1 trade!

    Back-up for Grundy is (non-playing?) Maley

    Back-up for Merrett is Nguyen (hopefully)

    Both expected back after this weekend. Again hopefully. So which one should i trade – have money ITB so can afford anyone.

    TU – trade Grundy

    TD – trade Merrett

    thanks guys n gals (the assistance from this site is fabulous!)

    • Merrett

      Grundy is so expensive it would be a waste of cash to downgrade him (Gawn maybe?)

      Out of the two, if Grundy comes back he could dish out 200 against WCE. Chasing the AA blazer and being a swan supporter I suspect he might, Essendon have nothing to gain rushing Merrett.

      Cop the zero with your flex, run it back like the ol SC

  17. Got two trades left but only using one…saving one for the GF. Trading Merritt with no cash. Options are: McKercher, LDU, Dale, Rankin, W Ashcroft, Warner, Soligo or Wines. Who’s got the best matchups for the last two games /best options for good scores? Comment please.

  18. Have a dilemma on my hands help would be appreciated cause there’s so many ways I can go. I have Merrett and my opponent also has Merrett so both cancel out. However I also have Cerra and only have one trade left. Both our cover for Merrett is Boxshall. Trading Merrett I don’t like cause there’s no one I would pick from those crop of players with only 10k in the bank.

    Do I trade Cerra to a LDU/Dekoning/Wilkie type which gains an extra “premo” and hold Merrett in hoping for a win to make the cashy grand final

    Or do I make no trades at all and hope my premiums go better than his and hopefully xerri drops down in price in order to go Merrett to xerri next week in the granny

  19. Have Merrett but only 2 trades with 2 weeks left

    T/U: Use both trades and get any gun I want thanks to flex but risk an injury and no trades for next week if I make any granny’s.

    T/D: Use one trade and get anyone at Merret’s price (Looking at one of Rozee, Dale, Kennedy or Mckercher as the best)
