Maybe I should grab a forward instead, back to Curtin.

Solid week scoring 1992 and moved up to 713, that's a nice rank as we near the end of the byes. I'm fixing Lindsay with Moraes, that cash also allows me to grab Rankine for Callaghan, Sheezel also booted for De Koning. I don't see these as sideways trades, I think they look like must-haves at this early stage.

Next week I've got an open mind, maybe the midfield with some sliders like Neale, I think he'll come good eventually, maybe even next week.

Mat0369

That's a damn good week. I agree with the Lindsay to Moraes trade if Lindsay is out a while. If he is a week or test I'd probably hold, he has looked the best chance of generating cash and I'd take the hit while trading out someone like Paton instead (if he isn't named).

I'm also a little worried about Sheezel, although I think I'd move Gawn for TDK instead. They moved Sheezel behind the ball late and I think he is a hold for one more week. Callaghan would have been a cash gen move so I understand moving him on as well.

I think Gawn will be the third best ruck, I think his draw gets better from here. Bad luck to be paying top dollar but no point sideways trading either, definitely better to get De Koning and perhaps even consider Jackson. Four rucks could be lethal, something worth considering next week.

Sheezel might come good but there's too much forward time to assume he'll be a top 6 defender, this week probably the last week to offload for a reasonable price.

Great round and rank. I like the trades a lot. Paton over Lindsay if you can afford and it's a very short term injury.

Cutting the spuds has been paying off so why stop now.

Also bear in mind Lindsay has a 9 in his rolling average, could be a long wait to see any decent return.

Yeah, your right, he will have to come back and go 80 plus a couple in a row to generate again, a 40-60 would make for a long road back to profit. BE28 a 50 takes that up into the 60's BE for the next game.

O'Sullivan on the other hand... BE37 not far below his average his trajectory for making money is a flat line.

I feel O'Sullivan has another gear, I'm not against trading but there could be a sleeper performance around the corner. Couple that with DPP and he's a hold for this week, will reassess next week.

I hate the deadwood in my team, made a huge blunder trading Trainor but dems da breaks. I will survive somehow. One possible trade next week might be Tsatas, only 58k needed from Paton, very doable and solves a few problems before we go back to best 22.

Bully

Knevitt out, looks like my bench is capitulating, I guess I'll have to sort all this out next week.

arbel

Yeah I did not like those team lineups today

Terrible week scoring 1874, fell out of the top 1000 but mainly due to Bice being stranded on the bench, that cost me big time. Number 1 priority this week is fixing structure, I'll plump with Travaglia for now but could also grab El-Hawli if need be. That change could also get Sheezel up to Whitfield, alternatively I could get Clay Hall instead of Tsatas but I'll stick with the latter for now.

arbel

I think Tsatas is the better option if he's back. Sheezel had a good week and that 144 is now in his rolling average for the next few. Could wait on El-Hawli for a week as well til he's on the bubble.

Mat0369

I'm waiting to see if Tsatas is named, if he looks like he is playing I think he comes in for me. Hall is too much on the fringe to take the risk right now. I guess Tsatas may be just as risky and is more expensive.

Your backline looks pretty damn great. You've managed to hit all the rookies, it sucks not having O'Sullivan and watch him put up a great score each week. It does feel like you're missing a big dog mid, but every other line looks fantastic right now that you're in a good spot. Holding Parker has been a masterstroke as he paid off this week and should make quick cash to turn into JHF without having to fork out too much cash

I think I'm gravitating towards a Hall/Whitfield combo, Sheezel has 60% ownership so I'm going against the grain here, 12% for Whitfield. Need some good PODs and Lachie is averaging 124.

That defense looks very nice even with Holmes in the midfield.
