Current
B: Goddard, Adcock, Fisher, Mackie, Houlihan, Grima, Broughton (Cornes, Suban)
C: Swan, Bartel, Corey, Gibbs, S.tuck, Hasleby (Beams, Muston)
R: Cox, Sandilands (Jacobs, Spencer)
F: Stevie J, Pavlich, Deledio, Giansiracusa, Franklin, Higgins, Didak (Warren, Ballantyne)

Final
B: Goddard, Adcock, Fisher, Mackie, Hodge, Enright/Lockyer, Broughton (Grima, Suban)
C: Swan, Bartel, Corey, Gibbs, S.tuck, Hasleby (Anthony, Muston)
R: Cox, Sandilands (Jacobs, Spencer)
F: Stevie J, Pavlich, Deledio, Giansiracusa, Franklin, Higgins, Didak (Warren, Ballantyne)

If all goes to plan, my team will look like that in 2 weeks, with 3 trades remaining (4 if lockyer/Enright score <90)
Who would you keep as your 7th back, houlihan or Broughton? Im leaning towards broughton as he is scoring well, and houlihan has a non-dt friendly role.
 
B: Hodge, Fisher, Enright, Newman, Ellis, Malceski, Grimes (Broughton, Raines)

C: Bartel, Swan, Cornes, Boyd, Dal Santo, Selwood (Beams, Muston)

R: Cox, McIntosh (Spencer, Jacobs)

F: Pavlich, Deledio, Franklin, Giansiracusa, Murphy, B Johnson, Goodwin (Ballantyne, Hentschel)

Ordinary backs and forwards, but happy with the mids.
 
Finished my team:
Goddard, Lockyer, Enright, Gilbert, Fisher, Grimes, Bock (Broughton, Cheney)
Swan, Ablett, Bartel, Gibbs, NDS, Kane (Muston, Sidebottom)
Cox, Kreuzer (Jacobs, Browne)
Didak, Lids, Higgins, Gia, Brennan, Pav, Buddy (Walker, Balla)

Only 2 trades left, but I've already given up so I don't mind.:thumbsu:

I have eight trades left and 116k in the bank, and after these few upgrades my team will be complete.

Backs: Goddard, Enright, Mundy, Birchall, Ellis, Drummond, Lake (Cheney, Greenwood)
Midfield: Bartel, Gibbs, Power, Thompson, Selwood, Rich (Robinson, Muston)
Ruck: Cox, McIntosh (Jacobs, Spencer)
Forward: Didak, Johnson, Chapman, Gia, Higgins, Skipworth, Sidebottom (Brown, Ballantyne)

This week I am trading Sidebottom up to a random premium of my choice and Robinson down to Anthony. Then next week I will trade one of either Lake and Skipworth up to a premium of my choice.
 
Will be finished this week with the inclusion of Bartel.

B - Goddard, Lockyer, Adcock, Mackie, Hodge, Scotland, Broughton (Pearce, O'Keefe)

M - Swan, Bartel, Corey, Gibbs, Thompson, Kornes (Anthony, De Boer)

R - Cox, Petrie (Jacobs, Browne)

F - Deledio, Giansiracusa, Pavlich, Higgins, Franklin, Didak, Goodwin (Ballantyne, Rookie)

Rookie being who I trade Sidebottom down to, haven't decided yet. Very happy with the team (especially the midfield) considering what I've had to put up with this season.
 
Backs: Goddard, Enright, Fisher, Gram, Hodge, Burgoyne, Broughten (Suban, Rance)

Midfield: Bartel, Gibbs, Swan, Selwood, Corey, Winderlich (Anthony, Beams)

Ruck: Kruezer, McIntosh (Browne, Spencer)

Forward: Deledio, S.Johnson, Pavlich, Roughead, Higgins, Skipworth, Murphy (Franklin, Ballantyne)

I don't see a need to trade out Broughten, if he can become a 7th back averaging 80 he will stay. And it seems as though he will.
Could trade Winderlich to Ablett, but again, with Winders averaging 95 is it really needed? Happy having the depth in the forwards with one of either Skipworth, Franklin or Murphy riding the pine.
 
B - Goddard, Grimes, Adcock, Mackie, Fisher, Ellis, Broughton (Cornes, Petrenko)

M - Ablett, Bartel, Selwood, Gibbs, Cross, Hayes (Anthony, Cockie)

R - Cox, Hmac (Jacobs, Spencer)

F - Deledio, Didak, Pavlich, Higgins, SJ, Didak, Volt (Ballantyne, Brown)

That will be my final team after round 15.. All i have left to do is Muston>Anthony Rich>Bartel
That will leave me with 4 trades
 
Im unsure whether or not I should be upgrading Muston next week to someone like Selwood or if I should keep Anthony on the field for 6-7 weeks and upgrade him later. Anyway here goes...

Goddard, Chad, Fisher, Mackie, Hodge, Ellis, Grimes (Broughton, Suban)

Ablett, Bartel, Swan, Gibbs, Kornes, Selwood(?) (Anthony, Cockie)

Cox, HMac

SJ, Pavlich, ROK, Riewoldt, Deledio, Higgins, Franklin (Brown, Ballantyne)

Unsure whether to get Cross or Selwood as my final Mid?

Leaving 5 trades left
 
B: Hodge, Fisher, Enright, Newman, Ellis, Malceski, Grimes (Broughton, Raines)

C: Bartel, Swan, Cornes, Boyd, Dal Santo, Selwood (Beams, Muston)

R: Cox, McIntosh (Spencer, Jacobs)

F: Pavlich, Deledio, Franklin, Giansiracusa, Murphy, B Johnson, Goodwin (Ballantyne, Hentschel)

Ordinary backs and forwards, but happy with the mids.

You must be one of the last BF coaches holding Malceski.
 
Enright, Fisher, Mundy, Hodge, Chad, Adcock, Grimes (Broughton, Suban)

Ablett, Bartel, Swan, Hayes, Stanton, Gibbs/Selwood/Murphy (Anthony, Cockie)

Cox, Sandilands (Spencer, Jacobs)

Riewoldt, Johnson, Pavlich, Deledio, Giansiracusa, Higgins, Franklin (Ballantyne, Hentschel)

Trading rich ---> anthony, and warren ---> riewoldt, this week.

leaving me with 6 trades.

then in the next few weeks upgrade muston to gibbs/selwood/murphy, or another premium who has bottomed out.
 
This week I will do:

Muston -> Anthony
M Brown -> Deledio

Which will complete my team with 4 trades remaing like this:

Goddard, Fisher, Scotland, Hodge, Ellis, Enright, Lockyer (Broughton, Petrenko)
Cross, Priddis, Gibbs, Selwood, Haselby, Pearce (Anthony, Swift)
Cox, McIntosh (Pyke, Spencer)
ROK, Didak, J Brown, Deledio, Goodwin, Franklin, Higgins (Ballantyne, Macaffer)

I'm hoping that Pearce get's back into some form, then I can trade him to Ablett or Bartel come finals time.

Not my finalised team, but here's my team heading into Round 10:

Goddard, Lockyer, C Cornes, Houlihan, S Hill, Grimes*, Broughton*
(Hodge*, Greenwood*)

Swan, Mitchell, J Selwood, Simpson, Foley, Rich
(Cockie*, Anthony)

Cox, McIntosh
(Meeson*, Browne)

Franklin*, Davey*, Didak, Deledio*, Gia, Krakouer, Sidebottom*
(Chapman, Hogan)

9 trades left, $190K in the bank. The * shows the players I have traded in so far.

Obviously Hodge and Chapman come off the bench when they return. Will be aiming to (at least) upgrade 1 defender (Hill or Grimes), 1 midfielder (Rich) and one forward (Krakouer or Sidebottom) using cash in bank and cash from a couple of trades (say $50K from Muston for Cockie and $70K from Meeson for any rookie).

That should leave me 4 or 5 trades for injuries (which is cutting it a bit fine I know.)

Nothing spectacular compared to some of the teams listed before me, but pretty solid I think. But I'll be in trouble if I lose a ruckman, or if I get lots of little injuries and my bench players are getting a game!

Still, there is a long way to go before the season is over!!

Funny how things can change a bit in just a few rounds! After Round 13, my team is as follows:

Goddard, Lockyer, Hodge, Houlihan, Milburn, Grimes, Broughton
(C Cornes, Greenwood)

Swan, Mitchell, J Selwood, Simpson, Foley, Rich
(Muston, Anthony)

Cox, McIntosh
(Meeson, Browne)

Riewoldt, Chapman, Franklin, Davey, Didak, Deledio, Gia)
(Sidebottom, Hogan)

Only 6 trades left, and about $15K. Copped a zero this week because I'm not sure how bad the Cox injury is. (Still managed over 2200 despite this and the decision to change my captain from Swan to Riewoldt!)

Still aiming to upgrade Rich, and possibly trade in a reasonable defender for Cornes. An opening to make some $$ on Meeson may have come up with Brad Moran out for the season, likely to be replaced by Sellar or S McKernan. This would give me about $400K to spend on a midfield replacement for Rich, and leave me 4 trades for the remainder of the season.

Sitting 1676 overall and 4th in my main league. Aiming to finish in the top 1000 and win the league. :)
 
Final Team - 4 Trades Remaining

B - Lockyer, Chad, Adcock, Hodge, Burgoyne, Fisher, Broughton (Suban, Raines)

C - Swan, Bartel, Gibbs, Cornes, Bruce, Cross (Anthony, Davenport)

R - Petrie, Jolly (Pyke, Spencer)

F - Pav, SJ, Gia, Higgins, Franklin, Lynch, Lucas (Wright, Yarran)

My concerns are:

. Chad injured and Suban playing for him
. Pav injured - Wright will be playing for him
. Quite weak backline & forward line bench
. Weak forward line overall
. Who replaces Gia....
 
Enright, Fisher, Mundy, Hodge, Chad, Adcock, Grimes (Broughton, Suban)

Ablett, Bartel, Swan, Hayes, Stanton, Gibbs/Selwood/Murphy (Anthony, Cockie)

Cox, Sandilands (Spencer, Jacobs)

Riewoldt, Johnson, Pavlich, Deledio, Giansiracusa, Higgins, Franklin (Ballantyne, Hentschel)

Trading rich ---> anthony, and warren ---> riewoldt, this week.

leaving me with 6 trades.

then in the next few weeks upgrade muston to gibbs/selwood/murphy, or another premium who has bottomed out.

Fantastic team, well done. If not for the injuries over the weekend you would have been in a great position.
 
I have 5 trades left but this week I'm Trading Houlihan out for Ellis so by Friday Ill have 4 trades left and it should look like this:

Goddard, Mackie, Fisher, Hodge, Cornes, Drummond, Ellis (Broughton, Grima)

Ablett, Swan, Selwood, Judd, Hasleby, Anthony (Muston, Kerr)

Cox, Sandilands (Meesen, Currie)

Pavlich, Higgins, Franklin, Didak, Fevola, Thomas, Krakouer (Ballantyne, Wright)

Good thing is I have 130k in the bank so any players that get LTIs I will be able to upgrade to a better player. If things go my way and no injuries any time soon I will upgrade either Krakouer or Thomas
 
B: Goddard Fisher Mackie Adcock Hodge Grimes Broughton (Pearce, Hurley)

M: Swan Bartel Corey Kornes Dalsanto Sewell (Muston, Anthony)
