I could trade Shaw and Fyfe but that would leave me with stuff all trades after the byes.

No guts, no glory? :eek::fire::fire::fire::fire::fire:

Don't think I could do it given the lack of trades however I would be able to do:
Howe->Lloyd
Sandi->S.Martin

I couldn't get anyone worthwhile for Fyfe given he is now so cheap :( I could look at someone other than Roberton to save some cash but again, there's really no-one else worth looking at that would cut it who's just had their bye.

I'm ok taking a hit, worked hard to have the teams we do. Before this round I had:
- The top 3 defenders to date + Hibberd. Bringing in Roberton this week.
- 5 of the top 10 midfielders + Fyfe/Treloar. Bringing in Rocky to this week.
- The 2 best value rucks. Will sideways Sandi to Gawn after byes and pocket some cash in doing so.
- Top 3 forwards + Nank (Top 4 average + 5 games) + Buddy/Steele which I got at great value.

It's better to take a 0 sometimes than ruin structure/trades. It's 1 week out of 22 - The person who won RDT last year copped a 0.

How many do you have playing in round 13 mate?

I'm getting Rocky in this week too to complete my mids, good move I reckon.

I'm going to grab Lloyd once he has bottomed out instead of Roberton. Am looking for value now (Hibberd/Lloyd) with not many trades left.

Wouldn't mind grabbing Gawn too at some point, maybe for Greenwood as I have Ryder and Witts in the ruck ATM.

Buddy is a good option too up forward. I am going Wallis though due to how cheap he is.

The trend going on here is that I'm a cheapskate. LOL! :p

Will just have barely 18 on the ground though if you call Fisher "barely" an 18th player. LOL!

Whos not playing?
Blue dots or faded out players?

This week it looks like you have 23 players to me.

Week after you have 18 but can easily trade to get more although in your position its time to get full premo then save trades.

14 premiums then Bolton/Parsons and Hibberd. So might have to do 1 premo swap (Howe->Lloyd) or (Sandi->Stef if no Archie)

So hopefully 16 at a minimum. I could hold onto a rookie but I think the points two premiums will deliver plus a 0 over the two weeks will outweigh the points delivered from the rookies. Just doesn't look pretty Rd13!
 
Well this week is looking good - only three blue dots on my team (plus Eddy and Cameron) :thumbsu:

Just need to make sure the team is set for round 13...

I'm all good for this week mate, have a full 22 playing. :thumbsu:

I was just talking about next week where I will be struggling to field 18.

I will have 18 players for round 13 but my 18th player (Hannan) is stuck at F7 with no way of getting him onto the ground as I will already have 6 forwards playing. :oops:

Can't even throw 1 of my mid/forwards into the mids so Hannan can go on the ground as I have no mid/forward link on my mid bench. :'(

Sandi to Stef makes the most sense to me if you are going to do a sideways trade.

Like you said though just have to make sure that Archie Smith has been dropped first. LOL!

Is it just me or is the Bye Rd calculator for predicted scores a little wacked out. My Rd 13 opponent in my main cash league has 8 players available and there combined average is 670 and the computer is giving him 1180. I dun get it.

Is that including the non-playing rookies maybe?
 
I went a bit overboard getting R12 bye players thinking it would be better. Scraping together 19 players probably isn't great when some teams will have 22 or more. Hopefully my premos save me. Plenty of players next week though.
