Missed the point.

Going early on a rookie that just debuted in rd 10? Risky

Especially since the Hawks have been struggling for well over a month now
Struggling means play the kids.

Of all the rookies that people have gone early on this year, he's not a bad one to do it with.

Looked very composed. In saying that, Fisher looked very good in his debut game too.

Barrett > Wines
SPP > Greenwood
Marchbank > Scharenberg

20 playing Round 11

Turner > Cousins
Stewart > Hibberd
Newman > Roberton

20 playing Round 12

Myers > Jake Lloyd
Daniel Lloyd > Callum Brown

20 playing Round 13

Gives me a final team of:

B: Docherty, Adams, Laird, Roberton, Hibberd, Lloyd (Scharenberg, EVW)
M: Dangerfield, Pendlebury, Selwood, Mitchell, Murphy, Beams, Fyfe, Wines (Cousins, Berry, Brown)
R: Ryder, Nankervis (Strandica)
F: Dahlhaus, Macrae, Yeo, Higgins, Heeney, Steele (Greenwood, Parsons)

Will look to trade in Gawn when he hits rock bottom and move Ryder to the bench. Will also look at getting a super premo at some point if trades permit!

How many trades will you have left?
 
How many trades will you have left?
Stuff all - 5 prior to getting Gawn in and hopefully that should only require one trade if I have a few funds left which I think I should. Its the way I play though. Try and get a full team in with a few trades left for injuries.

Once Gawn comes in I'll hold my trades and hope for no injuries.

Currently 2,500 and would like to think I can make up some solid ground on the rankings. Top 1,000 would be a dream and something I have tried to achieve the past four years without making it.

I am happy with my team, as I should be complete by rd 14 with Newman and S Selwood on the bench + 9 trades left.
 
Might be one trade next week in preparation for Rnd 13, depends on my cash generation this week .....next week have a good team playing, Rnd 13 issues that i'm confident of correcting by then

Hopeful of having 9 trades at the end of the byes
 
I used 2 trades this week, down to just 12. But with $70k in the bank, I'm pretty sure I can finish my side using just 3 more trades.

My byes will look like this:

Round 11:
Hampton -> Shaz
Balic -> SSelwood

Round 12:
No trades. I'll have 20-22 playing.

Round 13:
Barrett -> Ryan (Berry to mids, open def/mid link)
SPP -> Bont
Newman -> Lloyd


I'll later look at trading Myers to a mid/fwd for my mid bench, or a fwd (swinging Greenwood to mids), to open up the mid/fwd link.
 
Normally I would like this but surely Cousins needs to be traded in next week?
haven't really looked at the rookies, hard to follow everything in another timezone, but still, I think I'll give him a miss

I want my mid bench to look like this:

M9 = SSelwood
M10 = Berry (for def/mid link)
M11 = Greenwood or other mid/fwd rookie (for mid/fwd link)

Can't disagree with that!

But I don't wanna :(


Get into a Skype call with me and we can just get smashed all weekend together and drown our sorrows. I am preparing myself for my ranking to go in the reverse direction since Rd2. Least you have Dusty where I have Treloar :'(

Hah!

Sounds like a good idea. :p

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:
