Noting that I've got no room in respect to byes for Docherty, Rich or Short (already too far unbalanced that bye week), any thoughts on whether I

A) cop a 0 this week and trade Koschitzke to a genuine defensive premo such as Mills or Laird

Or

B) trade Murphy/Jones/Highmore to a 2nd tier player such as May, Bowes, Impey or Hardwick

Basically
Kosi - > any non rnd 13 defender (hard to ignore Mills if so)
Murphy - > defender under 500k (liking the form of Crisp, would consider Bowes but reckon it's highly likely he's already had his highest 2 scores for the year or at least 2 out of 3)
Jones - > 480k under (liking Hardwick as a POD - good bye round, only averaging 2 less than Short, is durable and no Sicily/Day for rest of the year)
Highmore - > 457k and under (probably May but not my preference)

If I go B with Jones I'd go Kosi to Jones when Jones is back and use that for an upgrade. Very wasteful but I just didn't hear about Jones until after lockout that week he was out because of work life, trades were locked in, and that's how SC goes sometimes.

Running Ridley, Lloyd, Daniel and Stewart currently with Kosi and Murphy.

Do you see Moore as a keeper?
No not really and I already have Jiath at D5 who I also don’t see as a keeper. Just playing around with trying to sort that donut but I think I’m taking it and focusing on getting Ridley, Lloyd or Whitfield down the track.

Why would you get rid of Murphy for, he will be back next week.

Jones is back playing this week too but probably in the SNAFL. He should be back in the port lineup soon though.

Highmore is the one to get rid of, he won't play again this year.

I'm still thinking of going Warner > Poulter and Highmore > Ridley to avoid a D6 donut.

What do you think mate?

Get a genuine keeper in and avoid a D6 donut. Kill 2 birds with 1 stone.

Just keep Kosi one more week to avoid the donut.

Cheers - have already made Berry > Poulter
Which trade for an upgrade?
1. Brockman > Jelly / Titch / Marshall / Hall
2. j. Clark > Jelly / Titch / Marshall / Hall
3. Warner > Oliver
View attachment 1125970

Definitely not number 3. Warner to Oliver puts McCreery on field I'd think and reliance on Macrae, Waterman or Brockman to return as back up. Oliver is obviously a gun but that'd be a robbing Peter, paying Paul decision imo.

I don't know what I'm missing but looks like Brockman out only gets you 470k which wouldn't get Kelly or Titch?

I think suring up the midfield with only 4 premos there would be my priority, Scott and Warner are better at F5/F6 than RCD will be as M8.

So my thought would be Clark to Kelly. Gives you 60k odd left over, and RCD as a playing mid bench. Opportunity next week to use Flynn to build on that 60k bank and get in a 6th mid premo (240k-ish bank), maybe from Scott to mids, Poulter to forwards.
 
Maybe but I'd rather the best of the best in your backline.
At the moment I have Stewart, Lloyd, Ridley, SHort and May with Laird in teh mids so I am pretty well stocked.

End of the day I will probably just do Kosi & Gulden to Poulter and RCD via Laird. Gives me 366k for upgrade next week

Jones is back playing this week too but probably in the SNAFL. He should be back in the port lineup soon though.

Highmore is the one to get rid of, he won't play again this year.

Because Highmore being 117k with my bank limits my options to May basically. Which I don't love.

Normally yes but rest of my side has no pressing issues. My backline is the one where I'm struggling. That and knowing my bye structure is really the only pertinent info.

Should i go

OPTION 1:
Tex > Poulter
Berry > Titch

OPTION 2:
Tex > Titch
Berry > Jelly

OPTION 2:
Tex > Zorko
Berry > Titch

OPTION 4:
Delete Team



Grabbing Poulter helps with cash gen, which i think is important with no backline rookies earning coin, no mid bench rookies earning coin, no FWD rookies doing anything, and Leon being a w***er with Flynn.


The other options are about points points chol and points.

I feel the money it takes to go Highmore to Ridley could be used to do 2 upgrades than just the 1. I don’t think it’s worth all that cash to avoid the donut. I assume you’d have no cash in the bank after it.

I like option 1 but with Jelly instead of Mitchell. I think you need as much cash gen as you can otherwise Gawn will be out of reach which he may already be. Taking 2 mid premos that are still at this stage of the season looking like 2nd tier ones isn't going to make up for that.

Yeah i'm already onto it.

Got 400k in the pot saved for Bearded flog currently. I was gonna get him next week for 650K, if i wait an extra week on top of that now he'll likely be 630k at round 11 which shouldn't be that hard to do a one up one down with Warner/Jordan type.

Even if i waste my kitty on 2 premo's this week.




I'd also throw up Sloane/Parker as a different option to Jelly.
 
Yep I reckon Flynn plays this week and that’s his season done.

Mummy plays two and has a rest. In three weeks time when Flynn would be back in GWS have their Bye.

And Preuss ain’t far away.

Season done from a SC perspective for sure but if Flynn is the future for GWS as they have stated why would journey man Pruess jump Flynn in the pecking order, I can still see him playing 7-10 games this year sadly R14 wont be one of them I think.
 
Thinking of a double downgrade. Stephenson and Gulden out.....then out of Byrnes, Poulter, RCD. Perhaps I have my St Kilda hat on, but interesting to see more love for RCD than 'Ronnie'. The news about Zac Jones means Byrnes is pretty solid in the team. I think he was anyway. Byrnes has two solid scores and looks comfortable. Richmond will get players back soon, so not sure of RCD's longer term security.

Got Chapman still on the bench in the backline. Be good to turn him into someone like Ridley next week. And Lachlan Jones may return soon on the bubble. Highmore too, who I actually traded out when he got dropped.

I am still tossing up between RCD and Byrnes, with the Jones news I think Byrnes is firming in the JS stakes over the byes as not sure RCD plays post their bye with all the Richmond injuries returning. Byrnes also offers a R14 issue but looks a better bet to play in 2 bye rounds at least.

Hopefully those who jumped on still have him.

If you jumped on R3, he'll have made 120k with an average of 82.5. Still decent, but not a season defining boost that it was looking like.

If you jumped off R7/8 however, that's a decent sized price gain and good scoring.

Wonder how many jumped off speculative players who have come good to bring him in initially, wonder if they see it as a win or not.

I'm indifferent now about not trading him in, odds are with the carnage my team has suffered that I wouldn't have been able to trade him out in R7-8 when he topped out, so would have been a pretty iffy trade in the end depending on how I enabled it. At one stage I thought it would be a big miss, guess things change quickly.
