I think I want to see Rocky and Fyfe one more time so will just do the Berry to Witherden trade.

I'm thinking of just leaving Sandi on the bench for now and running with the Martin/Nank ruck combo for a few weeks and just loophole between Greenwood and Parsons. Am I the only one a bit hesitant to go Sandi to Gawn? I know he's looked good but I get a bit nervous with all that strapping on his leg.

I'll wait and see and then upgrade Sandi to another ruck or potentially another fwd or mid or def via loopholing if the Martin/Nank combo is service enough.

At this stage I am going

Hannan -> Cripps

If Gawn gets back to more than 80%, he's a MUST have. He'll destroy you if you don't have him.

That being said, his 96 wasn't awe inspiring. I'm holding until next week.

He really butchered the ball on Sunday. Was hard to watch
He doesn't just butcher the ball either. Even if he hits the target it's often to someone in a worse position than himself. I'm amazed they have persisted with him in the midfield, his decision-making can be atrocious.

Compare it to Witherden playing his 2nd game. So composed and choosing all the right options.

I get your hesitation on Gawn but that's a lot of cash just sitting on your bench. There are a lot of players coming in to some real good scoring form. I'd be trying to get that cash on field and generating points. If you're happy to run with Martin and Nank, then I'd be looking at getting another Premo in to you fwds. Trade choices feel like they get harder this time of year don't they? Good luck @Thunderstruck

Thanks mate. Yeah I certainly do see your point. I think the point of me hanging on Sandi for now is so I can decide in a couple of weeks whether to go to Gawn or upgrade him to a premo fwd/mid. I will hold of this week and then reassess next week. The good thing is Sandi won't be going down in price!

Who's the better option to keep for the rest of the season, Scharenberg or Ryan?

Usually I'd say Scharenberg. Higher ceiling, more consistent, doesn't play for Ross. But Bucks is too unreliable at the moment with team selection so who knows. I would keep Ryan, he looks like he will play the year out.

Looks like Greene may miss again. FFS, brought him in last weeek and hasnt scored for my team yet.

Trades will be Sandi to maybe Martin and Berry to Witherden. Leaves me thin with 4 trades though

That hurts, I Traded JJK to Greene 2 weeks ago, got 1 big score out of him, he looks done and JJK is back....
