1799.

Here are the trades I'm thinking about this week:

Adam Selwood OUT, Palmer IN.

Then, I'll have about $270,000 to spare, which will allow me to significantly upgrade one of:

Richard Douglas
Shannon Hurn
Brett Ebert

1844.

Not too happy with todays effort, but it's a decent score considering I was 1 down due to Hansen's late withdrawal.

Only 700 from 10 today after 1150 from 11 (+ captain)
God I was furious with that one, I traded Thompson for Hansen, then see that they had no Hansen....I was on 1500 with 7 to go, and finished with 1890 which I am not that happy with. Bowden and Deledio really picked up though after a slowish start, and Houli pretty much let me down as well.

I got Wood and Cox as my ruckmen, I was thinking of downgrading someone to get Simmonds is as I was wrong and he has shown promising signs, and his value will rise next week. What is the DT calculator site, I want to see roughly how much his value will go up after round three?

Thanks.

Hamish will average 85-95 this season IMO. Depends how you think Simmonds will go but I reckon it's a waste of a trade even if Simmo averages similar.
I agree that Hamish and Simmo will probably average the same, but this is the only week you will make 120k out of the trade. I know that trades are like gold, but gold has a value we can all look up. What is a trade worth?For mine, 120k is worth 'wasting' a trade, depending on how you feel about the rest of your side.

The question is, should you fix a mistake that will only cost 1 trade and make 120k in the process or leave it as is and use the trade elsewhere. Very tough one.

An even 2000... Interesting to see quite a few scores on here up >2000
... Wonder what the score required for top 100/1000 this week will be..?

Top 100 - 2100? (Last week 1959)
Top 1000 - 1980? (Last week 1873)


What do people think?

Even though I have to agree, I saw Hansen on the wing thought he would get a few possessions, was gonna get Harry Taylor but dunno why I didnt. Even though back to my point, I do agree but you have added no valuble opinion whatsoever about the rest of about what I said so I'd appreciate you say something useful, I already am annoyed Hansen didn't play, dont have to highlight the negativity. What did you score this week/last week mr pro dream team.

Not worth it. Very sideways trade and your probably switching to a player who will score less. Let your cash cows make the money and let your players on the field score the points
