[Obese Arachnid]

376 have traded out Greenwod

 

[The Lemon]

Sandi>Darcy

Sit on 460k

Yeah. Team looks pretty good with just that trade

Assuming i just do this trade, What would you do next?

 

[Jonzi]

Got 5 trades and 280k. Persist with Wines and Fyfe?

Also have SPP on the bench who should get in spitting distance of Jelwood when he bottoms.

5 trades...definitely downgrade to witherden and darcy

 

[Judd_Magic]

Witts who is now carrying a bung shoulder

Since when did Witts bung his shoulder?

Must not be too bad if he scored 100 on the weekend?

Very, very nice team mate.

I reckon a Dusty/Neale wouldn't hurt in the mids, for who is a tough one, maybe Fyfe who looks short of a gallop/cooked IMO.

Also Witts>Gawn will only cost you 40k, I'd pull that trigger asap.

Cousins to Neale this week?

Fyfe, beams and scooter is a ridiculous bench though

Hopefully its not too serious.

Maybe Scooter in that case.

Witts>Gawn seems a no brainer.

With the 95be...im going to wait a week on that

 

[qarocks]

Zorko should be around 540 after this week, tasty

Bloody tempting.

Jelwood and Rocky also going to be tasty. Might be able to turn 3 rookies into 3 premos

 

[dmc333]

Jelwood yes. I wouldn't touch Rocky.

 

[The Lemon]

Jelwood yes. I wouldn't touch Rocky.

I know...but I'm a sucker for bargains

 

[clogwearer]

Yeah. Team looks pretty good with just that trade

Move one of Beams or Selwood to Dusty. Ridiculous amount of money in your pocket and on your mid bench, and with 8 trades left you've got to use it.

Then move Lloyd to def and put Shaw on the bench.

I would party.

<insert jpeg that would get me banned>

Apart from that, next week Berry to plonker D/M.

Lloyd to backs Withers to mids & whoever the **** you want in mids via Beamer or Scooter.

No need to upgrade fwds yet only really missing Punchable & he maybe out.

Top team.

campaigner.

 

[clogwearer]

Might have changed my mind on getting Darcy.

SS Elwood to Dusty and Ryan to Witherden gives me this, with 3 trades and $170k.

I'm not looking for overall now that I've dropped so far in the last 2 weeks, but weekly is my aim.

My next 4 trades will hopefully be:

Berry - Laird
Scooter - Rockliff
Shaw - Jelwood
Bolton - Greene

4 left for Deluca downgrade, witts to Gawn and another one down one up

 

[Gigantic]

Definitely considering bringing in Darcy instead of Gawn and strengthening my side elsewhere

I'm only on 4 trades atm so going to Darcy lets me strengthen the rest of the my side and leaves me with probably a spare trade

 

[jdwood]

Oh man. This Darcy fella is going to burn you guys good.

 

[The Lemon]

Oh man. This Darcy fella is going to burn you guys good.

Lucky I have trades up my bum

 

[The Lemon]

I'm not even that sure the risk is that big. If he goes well...great. If Not, their fixture allows the loophole and a good look at greenwood/nank.

 

[Walshy_The_Goat]

I think with 3 trades left it's too late sideways out Sloane or Murphy.
You could go...
Stewart > Witherden
Parsons > Gawn
That would open up a lot of versitality in your loop-hole options for the rest of the season.

I know you only want to use one trade, but imo

Stewart to Witherden
Parsons to Gawn

Should leave you with like 9-10k left for your last trade

Bench Sloane and field a Lloyd/Newman/Greenwood type instead

You have great DPP coverage already with the ability to shift a few across the lines already, imo sidewaysing Sloane to Gawn doesn't help your depth, keeping Sloane plus adding Gawn and Witherden significantly improves your depth. Sloane plays on Friday night this week, so you can always just loophole him potentially somehow via a Bolton/Cousins/Brown etc.

Stewart has a broken jaw/cheekbone doesn't he? I'd just do the 2 trades and sit on the one trade and hope for the best, but your team is completed and hope Sloane/Murphy can turn it around.

Unfortunately in SC/RDT at this time of the year we have to carry them underperformers, but having great squad depth means we can bench a problem underperformer if need be.

Anyways, your call but that's what I'd do. That last trade should strictly be for a season ending injury, but as you'll have quality depth, perhaps you could wait a week or two and see if the right player is the right price if you can't afford the replacement player you want straight up.

Fair points lads, thanks for the advice as I didn't really consider these options as I assumed I wouldn't have enough cash to upgrade a Parsons to Gawn.

This would allow me maximum flexibility, in terms of coverage and loopholes in these areas:

- Nank can cover as a RUCK/FWD.
- Murphy/Sloane or another MID can operate as a SP perma-loophole option, depending on who plays earliest in the week and can loophole.
- Greenwood adds more depth as a MID/FWD bench loophole option. Could alternate with Lynch or Nank.
- Witherden gives me another DEF/MID along with Lloyd, Adams, and Hibberd to alternate and loophole as required. If Lloyd is needed in DEF, I can bring Murphy into the middle, etc.

 

[Suns of Anarchy]

Sandi - Gawn
Beams - Neale.

This every day of the week. You have a glutton of cows still mooing and cash won't be an issue for you. Darcy had 40 hitouts at Geelong and scored 50. He's not up against Longer every week.
