Looked at that
If I go say Berry to Frederick and Chapman to May that leaves me with no mid cover
And I have spent all my cash,
Backline looks good but Fwds still a mess
One option Laird to mids via Sharp put Jordon on the bench as mid cover
Then hoping mansell and/or highmore are named
At least mansell is Friday night so if named I will loop with Sharp while hoping highmore plays
Prefer to hold a trade and see if I can pick Marshall next week
Am thinking Campbell to RCD or Poulter
Rowe to Marshall, maybe
Hoping Rowe has a rest this week

Bully

Grimes out means Mansell probably gets another crack, even with Vlastuin back. Reckon the changes will be Vlastuin, Dusty for Cotch & Grimes.

R: GG (Flynn)

F:  Zorko, Taylor, Ziebell, Rowe, Scott, Bergman (Waterman, Fullaton)

Tried Macrae > Gawn his week after last weeks Gawn fail cost me 3 leagues!
Went Chapman to Frederick then reversed out and took Murphy
Gave Tex one more week as i was just short on getting Bolton.
My Walsh/Brayshaw emerging gun combination hit a wall as well
Overall thought i was on track for 2300+ but footy gods are cruel

Trades:
Tex to Bolton most likely, Marshall also under consideration
Wait and see on the Murphy concussion situation
Definitely holding Powell (playing) plus low BE rookies Jordon, Rowe Bergman and Scott.
Holding deadwood Sharp (was to be my loop captain anyway), Campbell, Brockman, Fullaton and Waterman as I have no choice
Highmore needs to get a game (as does Flynn and Waterman)
Lots of planning but Thursday night teams will be the decider

Tex to Marshall with the Bolton injury news seems solid. Something else you could do is turn Flynn into Poulter using DPP and Fullarton.
