Really thought my backline tactics this season were gonig to come up trumps...No real expensive players, just 6 good, solid players who generally get a decent amount of the ball, and then hill.
But its pretty much gone to shit! and left my in trouble for a few weeks
 
What did you expect when you have 4 players that are returning from injury or are injury prone..

I am loving my backline:

Chad (solid scores)
Hodge (down on normal output - will improve)
Fisher (quiet first week, big 2nd)
Goddard (opposite to fisher)
Lockyer (great scores so far)
Adcock (hoping he is a keeper but will be upgraded if necessary)
Petrenko (doing well... should play at least the next month or so and can rotate with Suban and Broughton)

Subs:
Suban
Broughton

Ranked 121 with heaps of improvement there. So glad no Raines and Hill, didn't fall into the trap and loving it:D:D

Your backline is so solid I would just about say you overspent.

I am ranked 121 as well but went with Chad, P Burgs, Goddard, Adcock, Houlihan, Raines, Hill, Petrenko, Broughton.

Probably look to offload Hill or Raines, happy with the others.
 
My back line is lockyer, gilbee, c.cornes, drummond, goddard, peterenko, hill:thumbsd:

Emg:cheney, broughton

I traded raines for cheney and i mite trade hill for maybe s.hurn

Following last year I went with the plan to have a very solid backline that will require 1-2 upgrades only. This has work out great for me because so far Higgins, Houlihan and Skipworth are scoring well in my forward line and making me heaps of cash. I have to upgrade 7-8 players leaving me with 4-6 trades for injuries, possibly more if someone like Houlihan or Higgins can rise enough to be a straight swap to a premium that is falling in price (e.g. riewoldt).

So far my strategy is working out and with some luck see myself having a good season.:thumbsu:
