Oh almost certainly, and it's not an argument I'm making based on scoring potential. It's just whether he's a better investment considering he'd be making more cash scoring three 50s than Darcy would be scoring a 65 then getting dropped. If Darcy gets named, I'll almost certainly take him, but it's worth considering nonetheless.

This is my concern also.
I'll preface this with saying Darcy is my preference, and is in my team at the moment. His JS is tentative at best though, and he could even be shifted out for Lobb this week.
Skipping Darcy leads me to this hare-brained
trade scenario:
Leaving me with this
re-sized for Duckworthy ’s sensitive retinas
Coff and Hore make way for Kerch and Roberts after DPP switches.

I'm looking at Dawson! But he is a tough sell, his DT/SC ratio is atrocious, but I don't think he'll be averaging 82 all year...

Dawson, Oliver and LDU all dropping. Should be good upgrade targets in a couple of weeks.
Hi SC average has always been better than his DT average, incl last yr as a mid. It will turn around I'd be surprised if he didn't go 110+ from here home. No comfort for those who started him though

I feel like I'm in an ok spot, 741st overall with the above team. I don't have to worry about my defense for a while and I can just loop D6 most weeks, but my forward line and midfield could use some fixing. In hindsight, I probably shouldn't have done Grundy to Xerri but it was the only way to get Ryan and Powell in. Let's hope Grundy struggles this week
I think I've nailed it down to two potential trades this week
- Billings & Wines -> Darcy & Steele/Touk (leaning towards Steele) 112k bank
- Billings & Jordon -> Darcy & Flanders 12k bank
What would you guys do?

True. I can only speak for his time at the Swans and the few games I've seen of him this year, but at Sydney he was played in the back-half or on a wing in space where he was able to utilise his great footskills. Seems he's playing inside mid at the Crows where's he not able to hit targets as much.

Maybe, I just love his role though and I think it’s worth to give it a go

If you asked me last week, I would have said it's not worth bringing in Steele. I've changed my tone now though. He is moving incredibly well, arguably the best I've seen him move in years. The amount of ball he's getting on the spread, combined with his inside work, equals 110+ average imo.

What does Fyfe and Billings get you?

Alright boys...
So far, I have gone Billings to Darcy and Gibcus to Brown. $190k in the bank so I started exploring some boost options and I can go Wines to Green...........
Wines isn't a priority to trade out and my initial plan was to continue to hold him and then go sideways to Piggy/Dawson etc but maybe I grow a pair and just grab Green while I can. This opportunity may not come up again for a while. McKercher/Sanders/Roberts could all become one of those fallen premos later in the year.
Anyone talk me out of it?

I’d only be able to afford someone like Flanders if I traded those two and got the Richmond 102k guy over Darcy. Unfortunately, I think that’s a no go

Tough, sort of same predicament for me. I think the Jordon the Flanders is the better option but Touk/Steele are at their basement rn

Your defence looks mint as is.
Your midfield looks pretty damn good with 3 big dogs, the good rooks, and the Martin/Wines combo
So I guess I’d probably try strengthening the forwards and going one up one down like you said.
Stupid sexy Flanders is looking tasty

Can't do billings and Reid to Darcy and Flanders?

Tough one.
Miller and Darcy for me.
Dempsey however could be this years Kade Chandler… tempting

Seeing quite a few ditching Harley Reid, and I'm not sure I entirely get why. BE is still only 22, and despite only averaging 65 so far against pretty tough opposition (which still isn't all that bad), all he needs is one spike score and the cash gen will get rolling.
His JS is as rock solid as you can possibly get, and his fixture opens up a bit after this week too (Richmond, Freo, GC, Essendon). I don't reckon he's worth jumping off just yet. Especially to bring in a rookie with very questionable JS.
Reckon he's an easy hold for at least another 2-3 weeks – more upside than downside if you do, IMO.

For me it will be:
Fisher + Reid out
Touk + Darcy in
(Pending teams)
Ranked 1002 and still playing the bye weekends to make up the points. Defence is on point and really taking the chances on the FWDs but will have some better premo coverage next two byes.
Next week Grundy and Jordon out to whoever.
Then be looking at maybe Heeney and then Daicos week after.
Gotta stick to the plan, first time I have done it.
35 trades left

Will wait for teams and if Laz is out that makes the decision easier. Think there is a good case to ditch Reid, JS is up but he isn't running out games at all.

34 and two boosts down with basically no bank, so I can’t do the trade you suggested

He seems opposite to his brother.
See how he goes this week , might be a option .

Why would Las zero be out he was ok .
I think north should be playing Ford .
Unsure if Las is the one to go for him.
