Sadly for us, we're back to two trades a week.
For those lucky enough to have a full premo side (I won't use the word "completed" as there's always upgrades or loop options) the return to two trades should still provide enough scope to trade rookie B.E's and offload the Daniels, Rankines and other non performing pretenders. (Merrett, you've got two weeks or you're gone)
I traded Whitfield last round as my magic 8-ball has him missing the WCE game. Perhaps that's just wishful thinking, and maybe GWS see this as a danger game with our good showing vs Collingwood. Either way, those with Whitfield will be eagerly stalking the
departure lounge later this week.
If Sheezel is out, he will be a sideways trade (likely to NWM but that will require +$72k)
So for me,
Box or Kako to Rowston
Sheez to NWM.
If you've managed to "complete" your side, the old rule "don't trade your premos" is out the window. Trade them at will, trade them out of frustration but trade them wisely.
If you're sideways trading mids, for heaven's sake, avoid anyone who has an incoming tag. It's brutal. Serong went from hero to zero in the space of the bye rounds (still better than my entire side which went from zero, to.... Well, I'm still at zero)
Remember, after the completion of round 17, we'll have an extended lockout so you'll be stuck looking at this week's team for a few more hours whilst Warnie and the team throw DPP status on a few spuds, and a couple of others we don't really need for the pre Rd 18 DPP.
