What's everyones' thoughts here?

How much DPP do you have?

I'm pretty settled with my bench spots now;

Back - Hamling, Pearce.

Mids - Knight (F), Maynard (B), Boston.

R - Read (F) - Gawn in fwd line

F - Lambert (M), Steele (M)

Hamling is permanent but Pearce could go for Scharenberg if he comes in and I need the cash.

I think Lambert & Steele are locks as bench cover.

Boston is a handy $256k on the bench who is going to be loopholing his @ss off for the rest of the season.

What's everyone else doing?
 
Still got one more upgrade to make as Hibberd and Taylor are not cutting it in the backs.

Will offload Hamling to free up some cash to probably Goddard (would have brought in JKol this week but can only use 2 trades).

Should leave me with:

Lever and Goddard in defense

Steele, Glenn and Maynard in the mids

Read in the rucks (AKA my captain loophole)

Hogan and Dale in the forwards.

Steele and Maynard provide some DPP between mids, defense and forward.

Pretty comfortable with that, should provide me the cover I need
 
My bench cover is fairly solid apart from no ruck cover. But I'm keeping 1 trade just for rucks. My Def bench not playing the last 2 weeks is also a worry. Hopefully at least one of them will be back this week and the other for loophole doughnut.

Hamling, Cokehoon
Josh Kelly, ANB, Lambert
Lucey
Steele, Tarrant

$1,849,600 on my bench :rainbow:

I'm cutting it pretty fine with my bench cover, and with 3 trades remaining it wont change too much.

Lever, McKenzie (AWOL)
Steele, Neal-Bullen, Lambert
Downie
Daniel, Read (Doughnut)

I only have Dahlhaus in my starting forwards who don't have M/F, so I should be OK there, but my backs are rooted if 2 miss. It wasn't what I had planned at the start of the season.

McKernan will get dropped this week by popular vote.

But he served his purpose. Gave me 2 scores that I needed instead of a donut and made $135k. Thanks but don't let the door hit your @ss on the way out.
 
Def: Holman and Pearce
Mids: Ziebell (very handy) ANB and superelite rookie premo GLENN
Rucks: Read
FWDS: GAWN (also R3 when reqd) Lonie (hopefully rested this week as i need the loophole option)

I think bombers will go in with 2 rucks, Giles and McKernan

My bench is probably the only good thing about my team!

DEF Lever, Colquhoun
MID Steele (DPP), Amon, Maynard (DPP)
RUC Sinclair (DPP)
FWD Daniel, O'Brien

$1,828,900 and rising on my bench.
 
Def: Hamling, Maynard (M)
Mid: Steele (F), Lambert (F), Neal-Bullen
Ruck: O'Brien (F)
Fwd: McKernan (R), Daniel.

I am considering swapping out McKernan for James Kelly though.
 
Def: Lever, Pearce
Mids: Steele, ANB, Lambert
Rucks: Read (Gawn in forwards)
Fwd: Lonie, Daniel
 
Pretty happy with my benches, lots of depth. :)

B - Hamling, Pearce
M - Steele, Lambert, Glenn
R - Downie
F - Goddard, Read


Hamling should be back this week or next so the only bench player that wont be playing is Read. :cool::thumbsu:

Bit of talk that Read may actually get a game, but fair chance it'll be Moore instead.
