Looking at following,
Out: Myers / Parsons / T Stewart
In: Ryan / Cousins / Wallis.
Not sure at this stage...Parsons and Berry may have to go. Will wait for team announcements I guess.
Ah at this stage
WHE, Myers, Preuss
to
Buddy, Beams, Strongdica
I thought I had my trades worked out for this week. Turns out I don't. Better actually put some thought into it :P
AF trades, easy...SC trades, easy...RDT trades, have no freaking idea! :-\

Me too.
Otten to Docherty
then trying to decide whether to keep Harbrow or not. Can field 6 in defence if I keep - Adams, Laird, Docherty, Roberton, Newman and Scharenberg. Would be trading to Hibberd if I did with Schaz on bench.
Also contemplating Parsons to Lynch (GC)
Otten > Michael Hibberd
Myers > Cousins (or Callum Brown if named to open DP with Greenwood)
WHE > Buddy
Adams, Docherty, Laird, Hibberd, Newman, ZJones (Stewart, EVW)
TMitchell, ZMerrett, Danger, Murphy, GAJ, Pendles, Oliver, S Selwood (Fisher, Cousins/Brown, Hibberd)
Stef, Grundy (Strnadica)
Yeo, Buddy, McRae, Dahl, Steele, Nank (Greenwood, Parsons)
That should give me 21 starters this week & 20 starters for Rd13
Anyone think the extra spend to get Docherty over Hibberd is worth it? Would leave me with virtually no cash and hinder future upgrades but just noticed Docherty is averaging 20ish points a week more :o

The correct answer was to start with Doch in all 3 formats. 8)
I didn't start with Adams and don't think there's anyway I can bring him in without sacrificing my team too much so I'll prob finish my team before I can think about bringing him in, maybe same situation for Doch? :-\

Yeah I think I'm going to have to focus on finishing my team first and then find a way to get Docherty in otherwise it'll kill my cash reserves.
All I know is Sandi is gone. He cost me in two comps pretty badly. I've refused to look at my teams since he was a late out. Rage quit 2017.
It's not perfect, but have gone with:
Otten -> Scharenberg
Myers -> Cousins via DPP
Swallow -> Rocky
Completes my midfield and leaves me with 100K in the bank for my final 4 upgrades with 10 trades up my sleeve.
I want to cull otten as I have 7 backs any this week so he wouldn't be scoring any points on field - hes going to drop cash. but shaz at 197k is very exp. is there another alternative....ryan isn't going to make many points either so I guess id want to avoid that too
I can go all out to grab Rocky, or I could go logical and do two upgrades.
Option 1
Sandi>Cousins
Parsons>Rocky
Otten>Nathan Brown
Option 2
Sandi>Cousins
EVW>Roberton
Otten>Joey
Option 2 it means I have Newman at D6 (Lloyd round 14 for no extra) and Scooter at M8. Those would be my last two upgrades.
Rockyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
Probs just doing the one trade of Taranto to Kobias
Next week look at trading Myers and McGrath, hopefully can get 20 on the park next week if Nroo is back :)

I know, I know. I ended up going option 2. It would help if Joey could get a touch.
Ended up just doing the 2 trades
Otten to Hibberd and Myers to Cousins
Bringing in Rocky and making him C to try and get a jump on others had the opposite effect with Mitchell and Merrett going large :(
Watching the game yesterday he didn't seem to be favouring the shoulder but he wasn't going into the contest like he was before the injury. This was reflected in his contested ball numbers early. I think he had one in the first quarter and a half and looked to be playing outside. I can't actually remember him laying a tackle either (although the stats say 3).

Hear you Rusty I had Rocky as C - Think we played him outside as a bit of protection against the shoulder. He did lay a couple of tackles late in the game. He did take a one handed contested mark on the injured shoulder side which hopefully gives him confidence.
Expected him to be involved though and Barrett took a lot of points for being inside as well. Will this continue though is the question.
