I'm bringing in Lewis for Rocky. I hate myself for doing it but it fits my bye structure and he's so damn cheap. Leaves me with 200k next week to finally (hopefully) get rid of Mills/Adams/Tippa.

I'm starting to lose patience with Houli. Has the facility for a big score and can be a fantasy pig with multiple cheap touches across half-back but has belied his high price too often. I'm seriously considering downgrading him to Jackson Trengove who is a defender in AF but will be in the midfield with Port playing him as a ruck with Matthew Lobbe out for at least two months. That could allow me to upgrade Callum Mills to Stephen Coniglio.
Although whatever happens with S.Mitchell and Wells could change the whole thing.

Ugh, what a week. Happily I still managed to win my leagues and only slip 74 stops to 394. Rocky in not a good move, I had a feeling I shouldn't be trading him but still did it. If Wells is benched this week I'll still keep him I think. Might look instead to move on fantasia and rocky.
Fantasia -> Trengove (might take the punt on him if he's staying in the ruck)
Rockliff -> McVeigh/Boyd/Vince/Simpson (mill or yeo to mid)
I like the look of Boyd in the team but am always worried about his 'management'. McVeigh looks risky, may have bottomed out and will save me a ton of cash, Vince looks like he'll be pretty consistent 90+.

Looks like I'm 11-11-8 going into the byes so pretty happy with how I've set up.

Basically you want to backload the Byes and then shift them forward, so to speak. I.e. an 8-11-11 is probably the best, and then in the second week trade out two players with Byes that week to players who have just had their bye, and then the same in the final week. So I'm tracking well, and since I have some GC rookies I want to offload, I can trade them to Hawks who have the third bye.

I think it's your best 18 that get counted anyway, or is it 22?

Mills - Castagna
McCarthy - Zorko
Thought about NRoo instead; he's killing it. Something tells me that by the end of the season we'll look back at his form as a purple patch. Can't see him keeping this up forever. Zorko's midfield role should provide some consistency.

Seriously considering:
Marcus Adams to Josh P. Kennedy (via DPP)
Callum Mills to Darcy MacPherson
Not yet sold on Lewis after one good game and JPK is dirt cheap for someone that has averaged 105 and 107 in the last two years! Thoughts?

Rocky just leaves a bad taste in my mouth, and Leppa's comments only prove that.. yeah it may be a week or two thing but as he said this is happenning every 4 weeks. THe odd 138 doesn't make up for him getting injured in the first half, and I don't want to take the risk with a player who clearly has history and something not going on.
Rocky is on the OFFICIAL NEVER AGAIN LIST*
*Probably till the start of next season when he's 50k under priced

Well Marcus Adams is missing this weekend so it's probably a good time to move him on now.
I'd be bringing him in if I didn't have Hanners and Titchell in my mids already. Good pick.

Yep for sure. Deciding if I should pull fantasia first though and just bench adams - at least he won't be losing cash this week like fantasia might be!
Thinking of getting Duncan in for rocky... But I already have Selwood and danger. Is three Geelong mids too many or do you think they're all good enough to make it worth it
Probably traditionally it would be but they are all scoring well at the moment so I don't see why not.

Great idea to trade in Trengove. I think he's a very good chance to average 70+, which is worth it at his price. Think I'll trade in Trengove and Pittard for M. Adams and McGovern. Sets up my defence a lot better.
Thinking of moving Rocky on to Lewis. Any ideas on what I can do, quite a bit of carnage with rocky, wells, McCarthy and M Adams. Think I will hold Wells as he might only be a week out and suits my bye structure. Thanks
Be careful with Lewis. He's been ****ing shithouse for me all season. He scored 117 last week but he looked horrible.
Trades for this week. Want to reestablish that FWD/MID link in case Wells misses.
Want to dump Fantasia/Rosa
Fantasia > Petracca via Mills
Rosa > Riewoldt via Tipungwati.
Improves my team by getting rid of two who are going to leak cash and gets Riewoldt and that Fwd/Mid DPP link.
