Ess playing first with Merrett to deal with means I have to trade him.

One trade left with le puswah is $630,500, unfortunately can't afford NWM, who I would mos def get.
Don't care about leaving money in le puswah, more to spend in the no trades club.:cool:

Looking at the McGlug, Dawson, Dunks, Richards, Xerri, Ando etc. Too many pros & cons to go into but I would go Xerri.
Leaves me open to potential problem if I get a ruck injury for next week though?

Head says Dawson heart says Xerri.

FWIW I think Dawson is the one I'd want if I had the cashola. Your opponents are likely to have him and the chance of him scoring ~300 points over the last fortnight is as high as anyone's.
 
Someone please talk me out of Zerret to Tim Kelly.

Madness I know but the numbers are interesting and allows me to flip Clarry to someone less spudly.

Hayden Young might end up sub, even if he is named, so last 2 trades might as well be one up and one down, leaving me with 594k to spend.
Thinking either Callaghan or Richards.
 
two trades left....Grundy has to go (in two cashie prelims).
Choice is Gawn and McLuggage/Dunkley/Dawson OR
Gawn and Xerri.

Rucks seem to be the best way to score this year? Feeling Gawn and Xerri the way. Could even do Xerri and Rowell (but all cashie openents have Gawn).

Is Dawson a POD if you get him? I'd favour him.
 
4 trades left, who to trade out luxury trade?

Butters - possible Lord tag and unfavourable GF matchup
Serong - tough matchups both weeks
Anderson - probably gets attention again this week, but has a decent GF matchup
Holmes - does he get Jordon tag?
Warner - would rather trade out a mid, but possibly gets the Mullin tag? Very nice GF matchup though
Petracca - tough matchup this week, good matchup next week

Trade ins will be between Marshall, Richards, Libba and Heeney.

Lots of decisions. I wish I knew who the tag targets were. Leaning towards Butters and Serong for Marshall and Richards. Will grab Heeney and Gulden next week if no injuries
 
3 options I'm toying with, looking purely at league wins:

1. No trade. Hold Zerrett knowing my opponent has Grundy out and is fielding 2 rookies (plus McCarthy). Use trades next week

2. Zerrett to Richards/Brayshaw/Green and keeping a trade up my sleeve for GF week

3. Cash dump Archie May to a WCE non-playing rook to open up late loop for the next two weeks, and then trade Zerrett to a Dunkley/Dawson/NWM


Varying levels of ballsiness required, Zerrett playing first game of the round kinds of kills option 1

If Liddy retains his spot then yeah use him as your 23rd to cover Zerrett, who might be back next week anyway. Provided you're confident with your league matchup this weekend

Ok, thoughts on this approach….

Hold Zerrett, and trade Archie May to a cheap rookie.

Watch how the matchups are playing out.

If I’m in a strong position to win on Sunday arvo, then I’m all good and next week get Zerrett back (hopefully) plus have a trade an $195k or so to use in GF week.

If I’m in strife, I use that $180k this week in the last game to go McCarthy up to Richards/Libba. Hopefully pull off the win and the have Zerrett and Richards/Libba for next week (assuming Zach is back).

The last game, WCE vs Bulldogs my opponent has Richards and Davis as uniques.


For this to work, I ideally need Zerrett back next week…

Petracca or Warner, I'd get rid of Petracca if I had more than 1 trade left.
 
Think I've landed on Witts (for now) ahead of Dale and Serong for my Zerrett replacement. GC need wins, and Briggs and Sweet are pretty good matchups.

Jesus, that's a bunch of horrible trades.
Flynn out then back in ( and later out again )
