28 trades, $37,100
Was out Friday night, so unfortunately missed Goodes to Oxley. Went Ablett to Sloane, Miller to van Berlo.
Love your thoughts, guys...
This week:
Goodes > Oxley/ Whitecross
Go to Oxley mate, he will rise sharply again this week :)
Your other issue are those two fwd rookies not doing much (Lamb and Lonie). Lamb is out for 2 months so move him on first. Lonie might not play this week but you'd assume would be back the next week. Krakouer or Tarrant an option but if you can get away without trading Lamb this week (i.e. No other late outs) just to see who is better primed to play more matches then do that :)
Thanks PB,
Yeah, Lamb next week and possibly Whitecross...

27 trades, $65,000
NVB > Krakouer
Bellchambers > Tarrant
$427,000
NVB - Krak
Lamb to Tarrant?
Fair enough, "nasty" Nas, makes sense. Thanks mate.
Yep, definitely keep the ruck cover :) It will be useful
Yeah, cheers PB.

25 trades, $225,000
Newton > Glenn
Salem > Gray
$114,000
Love your thoughts guys...
Or,
Salem > Franklin/ Goddard/ Bennell
which would leave me no cash...
I'm in a similar situation. Do you jump on Glenn early or just make the one upgrade... Because if you don't downgrade this week then you can't upgrade next week. I'm leaning towards making a trade down, but to McKenzie because he has DPP. Not sure yet though, so many options. Of the forwards though, Gray for sure.
Yeah, thanks mate.
I was thinking McKenzie next week.
Goddard, too risky? Could always double downgrade next week with Glenn and McKenzie...
I see Belly came up for trade but was kept for ruck cover. Have you considered Belly -> Ryder? You will then not only have ruck cover but a viable F6 where as Belly is only really good for a R3/F7
Cheers, Jeesh.
To be honest, no, I haven't considered him at all. I don't know what I'm going to do with Bellchambers.
Oh well, just another thing to worry about, ha ha...
Might just hold this week...
The two trades you suggested seem pretty solid. I think you have to hold Bellcho for now as well
Heeney > McKenzie
Vandenberg > JPK
only leaves me $1000, next week:
McIntosh > Lever
Cripps > Rockliff
What do you reckon, guys...

Looks good to me mate.
Cheers Jay, I'm torn, or should I look at:
Heeney > McKenzie
Hogan > Goddard/ Bontempelli
With your team, i reckon go option 2. First Heeney is out for 4-6 with a high BE. Second because Hogan has peaked while Goddard is about to soar in cash with a be of 53. With VDB, keep him for another week. Despite his BE, his price wont drop that much considering his form. The week after trades are good imo. Maybe Sloane if you want him out instead of Cripps (depends on how he performs)
Thanks WW, yeah, I'm still undecided.
Hasn't JPK bottomed out, though?
It's really comes down to, JPK vs Goddard/ Bontempelli, this week...

21 trades, $1000
Just a few headaches, ha ha...
Any suggestions guys...
just grab Lever this week?
Hey mate,
I'm exactly in your hole mate. What im thinking of doing is to go Ox-Lever which will give you 230,000. From here, u can upgrade sloane/hogan/Kmac to a Treloar or Rocky/Titch or Bont/Rance or Birchall (these are all just some options for your second trade). Hope this helps buddy.
Yeah, thanks again mate. It's a bloody tough game, ha ha...
Alright guys, how about:
Oxley -> Lever
Hogan -> Parker
love your thoughts...
Any expert advice?
I'm not a fan of ditching Oxley. I think he still scores well enough to hold onto him. I would do Hogan -> Lever, via Krakouer and Lumumba, keep the other trade it means you have to field KMac or Lever though.
You teally need more Round 11 players, can you do Brown -> Leger and Hogan -> Rockliff? If so that gives you 9 (excluding ROB) which is a good number to have.
I can see why people would ditch Oxley, but I'm not a fan of it. He is scoring well enough to hold for now and with people using up so many trades then you want to keep your scorers.
Cheers PB, unfortunately I'm quite a bit short to do that trade...
maybe a double downgrade, then?
Only have $1000 in the bank, think I might just generate some cash this week and have another look at Rockliff...
Brown -> Lever
Lonie -> Dale
have I missed something?
It's very risky going a week early on Bailey Dale. Especially as you (like me) got burnt by going early on Josh Glenn. However the two you are trading out are good guys to get rid of.
How bad is Browns BE? I remember hearing Lonie's is pretty high and you could possibly do Lonie -> Lever via a few DPP moves, and then do the Brown -> Dale next week as Brown could make cash whilst Dale won't.
Yeah, fair call PB. I clearly haven't learnt my lesson, ha ha...
Brown 55, Lonie 102.
thanks again, mate. much appreciated

It's your choice. I was tossing up whether to get Dale this week as well but I couldn't bring myself to do it.
And I actually contradicted my earlier post with my trades this week. I ended up moving on Oxley as I figured he won't be in my team at the end of the year and has reached his peak. He should continue to score well though.

I kept Newnes & Oxley over the last few weeks and decided to kick Lumumba of the 3.....proving to be a good move early on.

20 trades, $103,000
I guess it's the standard this week...
Tarrant -> Dale
Lumumba -> Rockliff
$209,000
Any thoughts guys, have I missed something?
Should I just trade Cripps to Rockliff, instead?
What do you reckon guys, I'm stumped...?
I would go N.Brown -> Dale (via Saad&Krak) which would push Lever to the bench against Freo and then upgrade Cripps to Rockliff. Browns days are done and I don't have much hope for Cripps playing in the mids against Sydney without the support of Squibbs/Judd. Tarrant had one bad week (along with the rest of NM) and the 36 will roll out in 2 weeks which sees his BE drop. I would also like to see how he bounces back, should do alright against collingwood.
I'm personally holding onto Lolmumba due to him having the right bye structure for my team, hopefully a straight sway with B.Smith in a few weeks.
Thanks mate, I like it!
Might also look at:
CEY -> Rockliff

18 trades, $98,000
Oxley -> Dumont
Krakouer -> Dahlhaus/ Goddard/ Franklin
what do you reckon, guys?
hmmm...
Dahlhaus, Goddard, Franklin or Lids?

14 trades, $50,000
I've hit a brick wall, any ideas guys?
McKenzie -> Hamling...
There's one question you need to ask yourself before thinking about trading forward. Adam Saad and Patrick Cripps, is they going to be guys that you keep for the season at D6 and M9, or are they rookies which you will cash in? If they are rookies then it's time to move Saad on (Cripps you trade out Round 14 as his points will be useful next two weeks).
Looking at where you need to upgrade you've got 2 forward spots, and 2 back spots (Maybe 3, Lumumba is bad). With two of your fwd rookies missing next week, and the good premiums having the bye this week (Franklin, Goddard, Mitchell), upgrading in the fwd line looks to be a perfect idea for Round 13. Which means that this week you look at trading in a back premium.
Hopefully Hamling plays, McKenzie -> Hamling works and adds ($80k for you), which will allow for a trade like Saad -> Gibson/Laird (And Picken I think will just scrape under as well)
Looking at your Rd 13 players, you should be in an alright position there so maybe trading Clark now to Steele if he gets named this week is an option. Otherwise you can hold and maybe Lambert comes in for Round 13 (Lambert wouldn't be a bad pickup this week to be honest).
But i think Saad up/McKenzie down and then Clark down/Hogan up in Round 13. Which lead into Cripps up to your final Fwd premium (via the Fwd/Mid rookie that comes in) which has bottomed out or something (it'll be a money sqeeze to do this without a downgrade) will result in the following Rd14 side:
Backs: Simpson, Shaw, Gibson, Newnes, Lumumba, Lever (Hamling, Pearce)
Mids: Your 8 Premiums (Glenn, Dumont, Lambert)
Rucks: As they are
Fwds: Gray, Martin, Dahlhaus, Franklin, Goddard, Swan (Belly, Dale)
Trades: 9, Cash: ~$0
You may require another downgrade to achieve that final Cripps upgrade so maybe if Bellchambers doesn't return in Round 13 then you can look at doing something with him. Then obviously you need to work on the D6 spot, between the three rookies you won't lose too many points until you work the cash to upgrade. You could look at Brodie Smith who even at Round 14/15 won't be higher than $400k.
It's just an idea though, a pretty detailed one at that. :P
PowerBug
Wow, thanks mate, you're an absolute legend!
A lot to consider, plenty of headaches, ha ha.
Thinking, I probably should now trade Rocky as they're not going to rush him back, etc.
Should I move on Rocky, too risky?

8 trades, $45,000
Cripps -> Maynard
Lumumba -> Picken
love your thoughts guys, I'm pretty stumped...
Not overly sure about Maynard, but trading Cripps is a good move. Trading out Lumumba to a premium back is also a good move. Hodge or Enright are the only other options I would consider over Picken.
cheers PB, much appreciated!
yeah, I don't know of any good downgrades for Cripps, so I thought I should just open up dpp with Newnes...
should I just grab someone like Stretch, Ah Chee, Neal-Bullen, O'Brien, etc.
1 trade.
Cripps or selwood to a m/f premo, now that Rocky is back.
Swing them fwd to finish your fwds.
Your backline is weak but they are getting games.
If daniel avoids the vest then u can bring him in the following week and grab yeo for your defence?
cheers piccollo,
but I don't really want Goddard, now...
(http://i.gyazo.com/337feae19ec68c8499bf31207e773bcd.png)
6 trades, $253,000
should I finish my forwards or backs?
Bontempelli, Goddard or wait a week for Jimmy...
Goddard and Tmac for Hogan and Lever?
Full premo without an extra downgrade

This is a pretty good option really... Bench cover will be spares but just cross your fingers for no injuries, if you do get one hopefully it's down the track and you can cull a rook for some cash then...
wow, yeah, thanks mate! what was I thinking, ha ha!
now I've just got to decide between Goddard and Bontempelli...
You have Dahlhaus so go Bont. However Lever still has a BE of 20, TMac is 53. I am personally waiting and praying that I can get Malceski or Brodie Smith in my side for $100k cheaper as my D6. However if the two trades fit under your cap I think it's an omen that you should make those trades :)
legend, again, cheers PB.
I've been pondering it all day and don't know if I should finish my team now or hold off a week...
is Bartel worth it? is Tmac too cheap to ignore? will Hogan reach his be 68 on Merrett?

4 trades, $15,000
pretty happy, although no Gazza!
a bit worried about Jelwood, "BIG IVAANNN!" and my bench...
Hamling/ Pearce -> Goddard
Beams -> Ablett
what do you reckon guys?

Solid trades, I would punt Hamling as there's no saying when he will return.
