Mitch Brown to Hopper via Barlow moving forward I guess you could do if you have your heart set on Hopper.

Smith. The guy who is priced at 255K with a BE of 3? Don't trade him. It is not a great feeling sitting at 8th and feeling like you have to make every post a winner but don't get sucked in to too many quick fixes ... you've just got to try to make the right calls for your team each week and...

Question without notice: which defensive rookies would you cull and which hold til your last upgrade or possibly keep for bench cover? Dea - I've already culled DBJ - probably on the chopping block for me this week but has shown a very pleasing capacity to hit 100 ... could easily see him...

I know it is a little early to start this thread before the teams have been released, but oh well ... Hanners into Goldy worked out pretty well last week but I can't repeat the dose because they are playing against each other. This week I'm thinking Hanners into Pendles despite my Pendles...

Especially given Edwards didn't really set the house on fire. I had him last year and he was pretty average from memory and spent time in and out of the team.

This is the same for me. Luckily I've got the cash to go McPherson up to Priddis. Hewitt is earmarked to downgrade to Mathieson next week ... don't forget about Mathieson ...

I've had 500-600K burning a hole in my pocket for the last three weeks - I just haven't been able to get it onto the field with all the solid downgrade options that have been popping up - hense the double upgrade this week.

It is a bit hard for me to comment as I do already have Pendles and Hanners - but I think in your situation I'd be taking advantage of the price drops of Gray and Priddis to complete the midfield - keeping spots free for particular players seems like a risk. In your situation I think I'd at...

I'd go Bryne-Jones down to Williams and then Brad Crouch up to a midfield primo. Like you I've already got R.Gray so I'm looking at Priddis.

Sure. My team is called The Beardy Manbuns, ranked 9727th. If I bring in Priddis and Laird this week this will be the side: Shaw, Laird, Bartel, Adams, Tippa, Bryne, Brown, Weitering Danger, Pendlebury, Hannerbery, Parker, Robbie Gray, GAJ, Priddis, Libba, Hewitt, Smith, Davis Goldy, NicNat...

Yup. I think a huge percentage of the top sides will have had Maxy until this week. I was lucky enough to have the C on Goldy and no Max this week and went from being ranked about 20,000th to inside the top 10,000 ... that means there were a lot of highly ranked sides crashing I think.

Actually ... that is 16 when I've done my double upgrade this week. :rolleyes: So ... I conclude from this that if you have 18 trades left before you trade this week you've probably been doing it about right. :cool: Says the man who ran out of trades with about 5 weeks to go last year. :oops:

Twitter says that when he was interviewed on the Marngrook Footy Show a couple of days ago Max Gawn said "I've got a couple of knocks I'm nursing".

I've got sixteen left. Maybe you haven't gone hard enough? o_O

This is true - and it is just a terrible time of year to have to be doing a sideways - need to try to be using you two trades each week going one down and one up. Having said that ... Goldy only about $570 this week ... that would be pretty tempting if you didn't have him ...

Trent West played this week ... that might have taken points off Stef. We were expecting him to be a sole ruck in the preseason. Or the ongoing effects of the concussion. Certainly wouldn't be the first time we've seen someone struggle for weeks after a big knock. Happy not to have him ...

If Laird is back I can go a double upgrade: MacPherson > Priddis DBJ > Laird Reckon that might be the way to go ... if Laird is back.

Is that right? Interesting ... I have to admit I did not know that. So the points came playing as a forward from goals kicked? Hmmm ... kicked 3 yesterday in a losing team. Round 1 kicked 3 goals in a winning team for a SC score of 125.

Only if I thought he was going to play more midfield time. Wines and Polac fit. A couple of Port forwards out long term. All this equals not enough opportunities for Wingard IMO. Next year maybe.
