Grundy is the absolute best option, Gawn probably next best taking into account value, with English next.

What's Xerri's run like in the last two games? If you can't afford anyone else Cameron for the next four weeks and then upgrading to Grundy / English / Xerri in last two rounds could be a play.
I think Grundy's got even greener with Xerri being out, the NTH orange would be green now.

Xerri finishes with this:

Another injury to Essendons midfield with tsatas going down. That means even if Merrett gets triple tagged he just has to play in the mid. 🙏
 
Getting FOMO on Grundy.

I can likely afford him next week but will miss his pop score and have to pay even more for him.

If I grab him this week, the best I can afford is $709K... so I'm looking at guys I wouldn't mind having in my team for longer than a week, if carnage were to strike again.

Jack Martin vs Saints - solid role and good match up this week but very low TOG%.

or

Sam Flanders vs Crows - role unknown, does he get the 3rd or 4th midfield spot behind Rowell/Anderson/Humphrey with Touk's injury?

Playing around with things, and dual position etc, can bring in a midfielder. Gulden, Bont or Steele. How would we rank them for rest of the year.

Gulden is more expensive, so thinking Bont for better value. Steele has a great run of fixtures coming up through and shouldn't get tagged. Gulden playing us this week and could go 150 easily.

Personally, I'd go Gulden, Steele, Bont. But it's a close call. Steele's run home is unreal. Would love to bring him in if I didn't have so much carnage to deal with

Martin over Flanders IMO.

I'm still struggling with this call too. I can get Gawn and Whitfield if I trade Xerri and Rozee. But if I hold Rozee and trade Martin, it looks more like Grundy and Mills/Windhager/Cripps (not sure but leaning Mills - 810k max to spend). Then I'd have to turn Mills/Doch into Whit next week with a FOS downgrade. Beyond those two - still have the smaller Helmet twin (Daniel), McCarthy, Darcy looking for upgrades too. I miss 3 trades

Yeah rough areas the $700k-800k bracket.

Have you considered Toby Greene against the Bombers as a one week play? No Hogan, so you'd think Toby gets onto the end of a few. I'd take a punt on him if I could afford it, but it also means locking in your trades tomorrow night. And you likely won't be able to get Whitfield from him next week, unless you have some FWD/DEF DPP.

Yeah I looked at Toby but didn't factor in he was playing the VFL bombers. Could be a play also. I have 6 forwards + Martin so have some flexibility position wise at least

I don't love any of them TBH and probably want them gone in 1-2 weeks. This is the challenge and why I am still somewhat tempted at Gawn/Whit (though this involves fading Rozee).
Windy with a BE of 38 is at least a free swing in a way (wont lose cash). He tonned up earlier in the year against Cats and Demons (his next 2 matchups)

I think you'd have to hold Rozee at this stage, as much as Whitfield is an awesome inclusion.

Grundy & Mills seems ok to me. They're both up against us. Grundy has to be huge, and Mills should be solid.

Mills/Docherty to Whitfield next week should work, barring another disaster like this weekend just gone.
 
been twisting and turning between gawn or grundy. can afford both and usnure wheter to bank the 100k or miss out on grundy v no ruck north.
