I would hold and see what Greenwood does on Friday night. If he does well, keep Pendles. If s***, maybe look at trading him.
I'd hold. Switch Witherden to mids via Hibberd (Norf) and you have cover for Pendles and Danger if they don't get up.

Cheers for the advice guys.

Yeah can loophole Greenwood and Witherden as long as Danger plays otherwise I have to play both, and that may leave me with no cover in def if smith gets dropped. Aiming for top 4 in leagues and currently 3rd and 1st in my 2 leagues, so I wanna give myself the best chance to win.
 
Okay hi all i have 4 trades left with abit off cash too thinking of trading
Hannan > Ryder
J steel. > Jselwood for bench cover in midfield
Leaving 2 trades and 112k in the bank. Is 2 trades with good cover with still couples of weeks left a bad idea or just hold trades for now and leave steel on the field in forward line

Don't have enough cash for Zerrett mate unless I use both trades.

Just have to hope that Pendles is back in 2 weeks.

Too far off 1st position in overall now anyways... :(

Fwiw, 8 of top 20 had Pendles on field, by looks (very quick scan)
1x Beams
1x S. May
2x Sloane
2x Rocky
3x Gawn
(Couldn't see who they benched, suspect higher ownership Sloane / Rocky, e.g.)
Top ten get cash, no? First might be out of reach, still plenty to play for, though.

Can you still make a run for top 10? Cant be that far off the pace. See what happens at selection and take a look at who might give you an edge. You may never get a chance to get this close again!
 
basically at the moment i have a choice of holding pendles and getting witherdens score (will be short of cover if any late outs)
or
pendles to dusty bank the points but will be down to 4 trades with 85k left

im not currently worrying about rank just would love to finish top 5k (7k at the moment) but im worrying about my cash league which i am currently sitting 4th by percentage, so the extra few trades could come in handy towards the end of the season.

(just looked and none of the top 8 sides in my cash league have dusty but 5/8 have pendles so not sure if its worth going to dusty to gain an advantage now or wait)
 
OK I've made my decision... Pendles stays!
I believe he will miss 2-3 weeks
This week I can loophole Greenwood/Witherden

Steele -> Macrae
Newman -> Roberton

2 trades left!

edit: just remembered Danger is under an injury cloud... if he misses I'll reconsider lol

i went pendles to Wallis as my forward line needs reinforcements, been caught short the last two weeks with no coverage, thanks Greene, Greenwood and Yeo
 
how many trades left?

One if I do that... I'm currently 1200th. But obviously it could really bite me when Gaz puts himself in cotton wool in a fortnight...

I could get Dusty instead of him but Gaz is more likely to get those big C scores imo, which I'd need without Danger. I think Danger is a one week injury and if Pendles came back in a week too it would be a massive fail as well. I dunno. I'll just E Greenwood first and see what he puts up.

I don't really want to limp to the line but I'm not playing cashies so it's all about overall and I don't think I can crack the top 1000 being safe and saving trades. I also understand that having 1 trade with 5 weeks left could see me slide way down.

If Danger plays then I won't trade and just put Greenwood on for Pendles. What I really don't want is to have Fisher and Greenwood on field together as it could be a disaster.

Stupidly I took Parsons score for Yeo not realising that Kennedy was back. So cost myself points there too. I would have moved up a little bit but ended up going down about 20 spots.

i have no ruck cover either, so it's sounding lik a worse idea by the minute. Haha. Balls shrivelling...

Paddy hurt his ankle last week, should play, but I'm not expecting a big score

Am looking at Treloar or Sidebottom as my Pendlebury replacement. Either of them likely to pick up their scoring in Pendlebury's absence?

no idea mate, Pies are a joke this year. Treloar and Sidey should be good 100s at least though
 
6 trades and $77K left, want to upgrade scooter to Dusty and will need to downgrade Mountford to Bayok to do it, which will also fix my M/F DPP.

But looking at the breakevens and the Danger situation it can wait until next week. All about the leagues now, my overall rank has blown out to 5K. 4 trades for SC finals.

No trades this week.
 
Welcome champanger!

First off I'm not sure whether you needed to put "pub" in brackets. Suspect it would be more accurate without it.;):D

Second nice team.:thumbsu:

Third, how much cash left?

Fourth, looking at league win or overall?

Fifth, you really at Mawson station, if so how bad does the shrinkage get?

Thanks ... and kicking myself that I didn't call anyone a campaigner in my 'welcome'. And pub was probably self-evident, at least for those that manage to make it out the front door.

Cash - $146.6K
Aim - for the first time ever, overall

And shrinkage is bad. Currently up in sunny Canberra, just enjoying a tropical holiday. Just need to find a public servant to rub some more of that coconut oil on ...
