DC to Marshall &
Kelly to Steele
(If Grundys back)

Or

Rookie downgrade &
Kelly to Laird

I’ve faded Laird each week which has ultimately caused me to slip outside the top 100.
Do I bite the bullet, or does the second option net me more points?
Whichever one I bring in will likely be captain.

Can you go to Marshall and Laird?

This is one that I've had to deal with over the last few weeks because of injuries and I've missed out on the D'Ambrosio, Carmichaels and Culley downgrade options. I reckon it'll come back to bite me on the bum over the last couple of weeks by not having a rookie with reasonable $ to cash out. I have Wehr and Soligo but really just 280-290 rookies after that.

I have to again choose this week, Jelly looks like he has to go and I can get him to Mills if I swap out RO'B for Marshall. I could also get Jelly to an uber mid if I downgrade Wehr/Soligo. I still have Hewett so I've chosen to again miss out on the cheaper rookie downgrade this week and upgrade Hewett next week albeit at a bigger cost.

I think Marshall is worth a gamble to get a little jump on the rest who'll have him the week after anyway (from my POV) Steele is probably just as important to have as Laird and then cash out a rookie for someone else to Laird next week?
 
Yeah it’s a tough one mate.
I swear every week I’ve found an excuse to pass on Laird. I worked it out and If I got him in last week (would have been captain) was a 120 point swing and I would be in top 50 instead of 120 odd.

Last year I faded Marshall when he was solo and was one of the reasons I just missed out on a hat, so pretty desperate to get him in as well..

Hindsight is a wonderful thing!

Marshall has a pretty good matchup this week, so the points gained could balance out the Laird non trade considering Lairds matchup

*Edit...BTW, who did you whack the C on?

Yep totally agree re Marshall..

I had two forced trades clarry and Whit… so it was Sinclair & Keays vs Laird and Pendles/Lloyd.

So I had properly thrown the toys out Saturday evening after Lairds huge score and that fat useless campaigner Keays display.

I threw a Hail Mary and put the C on Mills (after he burnt me as captain for his 50 a few weeks ago) and that actually got me back in it and has given me a glimmer of hope.

If I hadn’t had captained Mills, I would have been at the delete team stage.

I too had Clarry & Shitfield to deal with and went with what was your 2nd option, Laird & Lloyd, so I see where the 120pts lost comes from, the Sinclair trade is still a good upgrade.

Nice work mate. Seagull Lloyd is definitely back.

Whilst there is still 5 weeks to go, and more than happy with getting in Sinclair, if I had my time back would have done the same as you.

Onwards and upwards.
 
Team sucks ass this year.

Got Jelly injury and stuck with Baker in the backline. Very limited cash.

Torn between two avenues.

1. Rook to Culley and Jelly to Mills/still stuck with Baker on field.
2. Jelly to Warner and Baker to Houston/Daicos.

Have gone back and forth and can't decide.

Option 2 would be more unique this time of year I suspect. I have to carry a rook for one more week, hopefully I can pick the right one to field….
 
Cameron, Kelly, Cripps, Anderson

Kelly obv. goes.. gotta pick 1 of the other 3 as well. Why couldnt Grundy wait one more week
 
Anyone look at their team and just feel grossed out? Like I have so many players that I could trade out and that need to go. How the hell am I top 800?

ROB, Darcy, Salem and that's before getting to guys like Titch, Brodie, Sicily.

I need 10 trades this week to get a team I actually like

gross dumb and dumber GIF

Must have done something right.
I have none of those 6 and have a rank 10x worse than yours.
(had Brodie til he was upgraded to Laird quite a while ago)

1 trade, & $206k left this week.
It'll either be Jackson to Marshall,
Martin to someone, or if Rich isn't back, Rich to Sinclair.

Paddy Mac culled next week to upgrade whoever doesn't go out of Martin & Jackson this week.

I'm still stuck with Martin also.
4th week running now.

Figured he'd score 80+ against gold Coast so was fine with the hold last week.
It was wither Soligo to Steele or Martin to ?? out of the byes and Soligo bombed after I traded him so that worked out OK.
Haven't looked at Essendons draw. Hopefully some good match ups for Martin.

FWDS haven't been the easiest thing to pick.
Not even confident Baz will avg 100 from here. Just hopeful. I'd love massive game from him this week as I traded Jed to him, and Jed has Hawthorn so could pull a 140 with his ceiling.
Duncan could get rested if Geelong are safe in top spot.
English was pretty bad last week. He'll need a couple of weeks to get going.
Taranto hasn't recaptured that early season form.
Doubt I'll trade Brodie back in.
Moore isnt a guaranteed* 100 but still an upgrade Martin.

Has the pies this week so hoping for another 80 odd again 🤞
Then with any luck I can upgrade next week.
Pies, Roos, Giants, Power are his next 4.
Decent enough.
 
Sacrificed some ground early on to load up on rookies, which is now paying off with a solid team at my disposal.

Just traded out Mead -> Marshall and switched Culley into MID bench.

Any recommendations on what to do next? Have $115k in the bank.

Do I just bring in Carmichael at the expense of Corey Durdin (which will only net me $70k odd), or piss off Crippa? Trouble is I don't have enough to straight swap him back to Piggy Oliver.

Finally got him out (he resisted strongly) last week for Moore - only a slight points upgrade this week, but only one to go !!!
