$17k in the bank and 7 trades remaining. Currently ranked ~4500 (not to fussed but would like to finish as high as possible). I’ve got the next two rounds off in my h2h and need to prepare my team for a Rd17 prelim!

I need to use Rd 15 & 16 to load up the bank so I can trade in premos in Rd 17.

Rd 15:
Out - Bytel & Serong (Possibly Simpkin?)
In - 2 x 102k rookies.

Rd 16:
Out - Wicks/Schoenberg/Sholl
In - 2 x 102k rookies.

Rd 17:
Out - Draper & Riccardi
In - Neale/Steele/Macrae (who ever is fit and available for price range).

Interested in your thoughts.

Don’t rule out bringing in premos in round 16 if they have a low b/e.
 
Thanks for the M. Crouch advice. I’m tentatively locking in my trades

R15

Macrae -> Gawn
Duncan -> M. Crouch

R16

D. Martin -> J. Kelly

Leaves me with 1 trade, about $20k, Wingard as f6, and my non-dead bench players being McPherson, Rivers, Schoenberg, Draper and Mozz.
I have had M Crouch the last 2 years, he's horrible so I take no responsibility when he shits out a 38 possession 81 SC point game. :moustache:

He is in good form though and there isn't much competition for points at the Crows.
 
If we were playing a 23 round season & you have a "complete" starting 22 I would say adding depth via a M/F M9/F7 swingman for the final 10 rounds would be advantageous. However, with only 4 rounds to play after this one, a compressed fixture and routine restings, I would say that you'd be better off with the extra trades up your sleeve and just sideways premo's who miss in Rds 17 & 18 instead of relying on your depth who may or may not be playing that round themselves.
Yeah that's what I am thinking too, this strange season needs a different strategy. It gets very flukey picking the right trades for only a couple of games, any of a dozen mids could go on a tear for a month.
 
The only way I can get Riccardi is if I move lunchmeat or Simpkin to my mid bench and play Riccardi/Mosquito at F6. Or I have to use 2 trades, and I only have 3 left :drunk:
 
Here’s my team as it stands. Playing for league wins, and in the prelim, so next 2 weeks is about upgrading D6/M8/F6 before round 17.

Rookie break evens make me think I don’t need to do too much this week, although considering moving Brayshaw on.

I want to get Neale/Macrae who have high BEs, so now thinking I can swing a DPP from the forward line and get a bottomed out forward

Any thoughts on who I should bring in?

Greenwood maybe?

I thought your team was complete why do you need riccardi?
 
Nope ....going forward now, not sideways .....kicking longer, tackling, Crouch's disposals having more hurt to opposition .....still a way to go, but noticeable difference

Hey he's probably a pretty good pick. He burned me to the ground a couple of season's back. Dude can seriously find the football.
 
Hey guys,

Hoping I can get your expert opinions on my team situation. I'm focussed on my cashie league and am in the prelim so have a couple of weeks to improve my team.

Draper is my only cash cow to downgrade in the coming weeks to free up cash. Unfortunately I didn't take Riccardi last week (I went Mozzie) - not sure if I should now? My plan is to get Neale back in the team after this week, thinking Cripps ->

What would you do with this team? Currently 5 Trades & $2k in the kitty. Cheers :praying:

I wanted him to loop with my forward spuds Lunchmeat and Simpkent. I'll just loop Simpkent with mozzie instead :moustache:
 
3 trades left 80k in the bank, only move I can see is potentially trading Jelly. Thoughts?

View attachment 950420

I would hold Jelly. You still have 21 starters

Cripps > Merrett if Cripps misses. NicNat > Gawn ....perhaps, it can probably wait til next week though


PS excellent "complete" team.

6 trades and 212k playing to get as high of a ranking as possible (currently 2300). Options I see are:

1. Close to (445k FWD) ie J Martin/Toby Greene to complete team. (<30k in bank)
2. Close, Bytel and Watson/Rivers to two rookies & Brayshaw to complete team (4k)
3. ROB to Gawn (26k)

Should have ~ 17 premo (inc Chad) playing this week before trades plus Schoenberg, Riccardi and maybe Rivers & Watson.

Help would be greatly appreciated kents!

I will be using all 3 trades.

2 downgrades to upgrade Bailey Smith to Lachie Neale.

That will leave me with 4 trades left.

2 of those trades will be to downgrade Draper and the other to get in Gawn for when Nicnat gets rested.
 
Chad to go HUGE tonight.

The Chud becomes T.Dow tonight. Money to upgrade Close for his F6/M8 position later this round.

Give my gif one more run.

Milk was a bad choice CHAD WINGUARD WITH PIC 4.9mb.gif
 
Changed Trade plans

Couldn't bear the thought of holding Rozee any longer .....it was the choice of holding a "supposed" Superstar of the competition or a rookie (Woodcock)

Monkey laughing.gif
I said .... "but i can say to the Community i have one less rookie, by retaining Rozee" ......my inner self slapped me around, may I say in a rather vicious way ...... don't worry about Andrew Birch 's barbs , or vast's derision

So with this newfound self confidence, i traded Rozee .....I mean what could go wrong, i traded Rankine last week, and I hardly noticed him missing (insert: give me a gun gif)

So Rankine to Comben, Oscar to fwds
Simpkin to M.Crouch via DPP wizardry

Next week, Cripps to Selwood, and Close to Smith (ats)
