I need to trade Sicily out (kept him last week to get Mihoceks score).
Then getting a forward to allow me to move Boak to F7/M9 cover.
So Sicily to Hurely and E.Phillips to who? Have 6 trades left, team is.
Def - Laird, Lloyd, Yeo, Howe, HURLEY, Ryan (Mihocek, Redman)
Mid - Mitchell, Cripps, Oliver, Merrett, Crouch, Gaff, J.Kelly, Martin (Phillips, Giro, Barry)
Ruck - Gawn, Grundy (Olango)
Fwd - Heeney, Franklin, Walters, McLean, Westhoff, Boak (Ahern, T.Smith)
Out of who I can afford considering R.Gray, Menegola, DeGoey, Ablett.. best bet?
Gray out of those options. Consider Chad as well.
Ablett is a mid.
Probably Gray of the lot. I've been waiting for Menegola to come good all season so I can trade him, still doing nothing most the time.
Why not D Smith dmac?
I meant Lambert not Ablett, think that was an autocorrect.
I have 480k to soend so short on D.Smith or I would go him. Its DeGoey, Lambert, Gray, Mengola or T.McDonald.
3 trades left and 27k, I’m sitting in 8th position and there’s a logjam of 5 teams on the same points in my cash league but I have the better % out of the lot.
Don’t know if I need to trade or panic trade for that matter but my team is:
Def: Laird, Lloyd, Hurley, Yeo, Hurn, Simpson (Lynch, Murphy)
Mid: Dangerfield, Gaff, Oliver, Dusty, Mitchell, Merrett, Cripps, Westhoff (Ahern, Giro, Phillips)
Ruck: Gawn, Goldy
Fwd: Gray, Heeney, McLean, Buddy, D Smith, Walters (T Smith, Battle)
Ideally would like to move Westhoff out of M8 and bring in another Mid and move him into F6 but that would mean I would have to move Walters or Buddy to F7, would leave me with 1 trade as I’ll need 2 trades to upgrade.
Really am regretting not getting Witherden over Hurn would have saved me 70k and potentially saved me a trade.

Very similar team to mine mate.
Fwds and Rucks identical. Then you've got Lloyd,Hoff and Merrett to my Hibberd,Kelly and Crouch.
If head to head I'd hold trades for finals. Hopefully u can gain an advantage then with other teams out of trades.

I would hold as well as you can use Ahern to switch prems around if need be.
Sitting around 300th overall and have 6 trades left.
Want a Mid/Fwd under 450k to loophole into finals?? Someone that can go big with a good run home and preferably play early in the round.
Already have gray, Heeney, Walters, Mclean

agree menengola has the role and consistency to be a great loophole option.

This.. I am really considering Menegola to loop with Rocky at M8 given the deviation on their scores. Only issue is that i need one of Spargo or Giro to get dropped permanently for this to work!

DeGoey a good loophole option as he has the ability to go bigger and get some 130+ scores.
Would be nice if the big Bud could punch out some monsters or B Brown/Kennedy kick bags! Tempted to get a 550k mid only as loophole option but would be stuck if a forward went down
But Menegola seems like a good option

Now not such a good option. This is why you leave it as late as possible to get cover because you never cop an injury in the right position.
deGoey out now forcing me to make a decision as to whether to use last trade. (Also sitting Sicily on pine).
With DPP Bundy, Spargo, Ahern, Ballard can cover deGoey but have to rely on Rorke Smith to cover Sicily. Was hoping Austin would be back but he is still a week or two away. So decisions decision.
Think I'm going to have to trade Fyfe. Latest update still has him as 3 weeks away, and my cover is Luke McDonald :-\
Not sure who I want to bring in though.
Hurley or T.McDonald?
Kept Sicily to take Mihoceks score last week. The DPP isn't important as I've got no one to swap with but just the best scorer.
Gaff v Macrea and move Rockliff to m9.
or
Ahern to menegola for M9/F7 cover with Robinson at F6 and Rockliff M8.
Not sure which way to go. Will leave me with 1 trade for injuries but playing Mihocek at D7 and cover for mid and fwd.

Macrae for mine mate.
Looks like I'll be going Sicily --> O'Riordan, Giro --> R. Gray (leaves 180k and 2 trades).
Weakest player (by average) + bench on each line becomes:
D: Witherden (O'Riordan, Duman)
M: Merrett (Walters (F/M), Ahern (F/M), Dawson)
R: S. Martin (Olango)
F: Robinson (F/M) (C. Curnow, Battle)
Alternative would be to go Sicily --> Hurn/Crisp/Andrews, leaves 3 trades and no cash, and the following bunch:
D: Savage (Witherden, Duman)
M: Merrett (Ahern (F/M), Giro, Dawson)
R: S. Martin (Olango)
F: Walters (F/M) (C. Curnow, Battle)
The 180k could potentially be used to go Duman --> Webster next week if I went that route as well.
Holding on to my last trade for another week. Coverign De Goey, better be back in Rd 21.
Joined the 0 trades club with Sicily to Witherden as a result of Rorke out to avoid a donut. Austin my other bench.
Did, OUT Ahern ($310,700) IN O'Riordan ($123,900)
OUT Austin ($292,100) IN Macrae ($540,500)
M Robinson F7
Rockliff M9
O'riordon, Mihocek D7/8
1 trade. going to need some luck. Have coverage except Ruck breakdown.
Out: Ahern, Mihocek
Ins: T McDonald, Jack Mac
Leaves me with 1 trade and around 100k left over.
Coniglio to M9, McDonald as the D7/F7 swingman to cover with Keefe
