Heeney and Dunkley are my biggest concerns. More so Heeney. Looks underdone and not playing the midfield mins I expected. I still think Dunkley has a lot of upside. He's getting enough midfield time, just a bit of a slow start to the season. Thinking Heeney -> T.Kelly this week as my only...

That F3 spot is my biggest decision, no doubt. It pretty much determines whether I can fit both Gawn and Grundy and whether I can go a bit deeper in def than previous years. So bloody difficult to decide.

Thoughts on D.Moore at F3? If he gets a good run at it injury wise, I think he's hard to pass up. Given I can't pick an F3 with confidence, picking Moore at 239k really allows me to balance my other lines.

Naughton getting injured has thrown my plans into chaos. Had him on field. My DEF & FWD lines now reads: DEF: Laird, Hurley, Doedee, Murray, Naughton, Cole (Mirra, Murphy) FWD: McLean, Heeney, Sicily, Smith, Billings, Higgins (Spargo, Guelfi) Looking at doing: Naughton > Ronke (via Finlayson...

Banfield -> Spargo is locked and loaded. Leaves me with 215k to upgrade one Billings/Christensen/Finlayson/Doedee/Murray to a premo. Thinking Oliver or Crouch. Thoughts on which one to trade out first? Billings is causing me too much anxiety and I really want to just boot him out. But I feel...

Did Bonner > Cole & Holman > Macrae this week. Very happy indeed. Scored 2344. Now to just f%^& Billings off :mad:

I want Jack Macrae. I just don't know who to trade him in for. My 3 options are Walters (injured), Billings (a dud) or Christensen whose pretty much maxed out with a BE of 87. Walters looks like he will miss 2-3 at worst, so I'm willing to prob hold him for at least another week. I hate...

Christensen is on your bench? He's currently my F6. Not really comfortable playing a rookie like Guelfi on field myself.

I'm stuck. Already got Mirra and trying to get Danger in next week. Garlett > Guelfi is a lock. But I can't decide one whether to go Fritsch to ZGL or Higgins. Decision would be so much easier if ZGL had DPP as well!

Brought Mirra in last week a week early in prep for a double downgrade this week which will allow me to upgrade one of Christensen or Bonner to Danger next week. Provided they're named, reckon I will be doing: Garlett -> Higgins Fristch -> Guelfi Higgins' job security is a concern, however I...

Fair enough, I'd prefer to give him at least half the year to confirm I'm happy to pay absolute top $ for him, even if it means sacrificing another 40k. Certainly has the makings to do so, not doubting that, but he isn't a proven supercoach star like your Cox's or Goldstein's, so I'm happy to...

I know Grundy is killing it at the moment, but we are only 4 rounds in and 611k is a crap load to pay for a ruckman. He does look good but I highly doubt he will maintain that price throughout the year. I can understand people bringing him in if one of their ruckmen is injured but I'd be keeping...

Billings. Sh*tting me up the wall, big time. I'm resigned to the fact that I'll have to keep him now. It's a waste of a trade to use your cash to upgrade him to a better performing premium. Worst case scenario is Billings will be my F6, and just gotta pray at some stage he turns it arounds...

Ranked top 250 atm so pretty happy with the start but this is where the real challenge begins. ZGL -> L.Murphy via Sicily H.Clark -> Z.Fisher via McLean

You would be crazy to not lock Dusty in as skipper. I'm now in a big pickle and don't know what to do with Brodie. Do I go one less premo in DEF and then upgrade Brodie to Coniglio? Or do I swap Brodie for say Clark and back him in on field?
