Just need to get some bench depth now...
Team will be:
BACKS: Goddard, Fisher, Suckling, Deledio, Enright, Gibbs, Adcock
(Heppell, Toy, Howard)
MIDS: Mitchell, Ablett, Pendlebury, Swan, Murphy, Boyd
(Prestia, Mzungu, Jacobs)
RUCKS: Cox, Petrie
(Z Smith, Lobbe)
FWDS: Riewoldt, Sylvia, Higgins, Goodes, Franklin, Okeefe/Cloke/Pav/Chappy
(I Smith, Richardson, Tippett)
- Move Petrie to the rucks with Smith on bench
- Sandi -> Lobbe who becomes 4th ruck bench
- Matera -> Okeefe/Chapman/Pav/Cloke
- I Smith becomes F8 along with Z Smith from DPP with Petrie
- Next week Puopolo -> Suckling
- Adcock / Heppell to B8
- DPP will now back up midfield instead of Prestia, Jacobs or Mzungu.

Maybe Dalhaus would be a good option. 121k forward.
ye man was thinking exactly the same...
prob would have to trade out mzungu to fix my rd 16 situation...
mzungu > dalhaus AND (heppell/hibberd/puopolo) > fisher
....leaving me with 7 trades
???
poupolo duigan or lower FOR either s.fisher or birchall? (have suckling gibbs goddard adcock shaw enright).
7 trades left, 82.3K left. Need some advice...
I'm probably going to go:
Lower OUT (was tossing up between him and Heppell, but Heppell has a higher ceiling and can possibly increase in value more before I upgrade him).
Premium defender IN
My biggest question is: what premium defender should I bring in? Tossing up between:
And the other pressing issue at the moment - do I still hold Didak, despite being out until Round 17? Or do I downgrade him to Callinan? But Callinan will only be on the bubble at Round 17 (Crows bye R16). Originally, I was planning on trading Howe, Mzungu, Lynch or Prestia to Callinan come R17, but trading Didak would free up (marginally) more cash. I was probably going to trade him for a more decent F7, anyway (unless I.Smith can fill the F7 role...).
Also, downgrading Zac Smith (or Leuenberger, my R2) to Lobbe seems to be popular at the moment, and I can see why. Maybe wait till next week, when he's on the bubble. No guarantees of games, either, when Brogan comes back (he's only retiring at the end of the season, right?).
Thus, two questions:

My biggest question is: what premium defender should I bring in? Tossing up between:
- Shaw - should hopefully pick back up off the back of a 60. Can be inconsistent, though. No byes left.
- Fisher - more consistent than Shaw, but playing for the Saints makes me nervous, given their form this year. No byes left either.
- Suckling - probably the best option, given his high ceilings (Hawthorn's style). Biggest problem is the one bye left, and given I also have Puopolo, it might be wise to wait on him, and do Heppell to Suckling after the Hawks' bye.
And the other pressing issue at the moment - do I still hold Didak, despite being out until Round 17? Or do I downgrade him to Callinan?

- When or if should I pull the pin on Didak?

Only one trade for me this week and it will complete my team nicely.
Going Heppell >> Gram which will only cost me about $8000!!!
Gram has a BE of 45 odd and I think he can still avg 85 for the rest of the year.
It will leave me with 5 trades and $90k, might go Prestia/Mzungu to Callinan after his bye to cash me up for finals and allow me to go from just about anyone to just about any Hawk I don't have for any GF I make!!

I have 5 trades left and need to trade Sandi this week to avoid a donut.
Could trade someone like McEvoy straight in or burn 2 trades and trade in Lobbe and then trade Lynch to Petrie.
Leaving me with 3 trades left for the season and team of:
backs: Gibbs, Goddard, Deledio, Suckling, Enright, Adcock, Heppell (Jacobs, Puopolo, Howard)
mids: Swan, Boyd, Ablett, A Swallow, Shiels, Mitchell (Hibberd, Mzungu, Bewick)
rucks: Cox, Petrie (Bailey, McCauley)
fwds: Goodes, Johnson, Chapman, Franklin, Dawes, Didak, Riewoldt (Lobbe, Callinan, Richardson)
thoughts?

Am holding on to Sandi and Rioli for now. Rioli is only missing two matches, and as I'll be odds on to drop my round 17 match due to having a couple too many Hawks (Hodge, Franklin, Rioli, Puopolo, Bailey) and the onther one is a bye, won't cause me too much grief. Sandi I can bench for now, and look at other rucks in round 18 as well.
Another change of plans in trading this week.
This week:
Sandi -> Lobbe (for some cash)
Watson -> Ablett (to re-finish midfield)
My rucks will be fairly weak, but I've basically been playing Smith by himself all year (I've been stuck with Jolly, Sandi, recruit that doesn't play), so if I have 2 rucks playing I'll be jumping for joy.
Will leave me with $157500
After Adelaide bye:
Either Atley or Lynch -> Callinan (to give me around $270000)
Tape -> Fisher
Will leave me with 3 Saints in the backline (Goddard, Fisher, Gram) but seeing as their byes are done with I don't mind.
That's as complete as my team will come this year, can't do anymore.
Been a really disappointing year, I'm about 3 or 4 upgrades short of my goal at the start. Ah well, I'll try and make the best of it.
2 trades left after that, which is probably all I'll need.
I doubt I'll make it past the first round of finals considering my luck with DT this year.

Igloo
Not a mod
Im thinking of going
Puopolo > Birchall
Watson > either Scully, Goddard, or a very cheap Cooney.
Thoughts on the Watson trade? Anyone under $340,300.

Happy with my Derickx to Griffin trade a few weeks ago now with Sandi gone.
This week I'm thinking:
Sandilands -> Lobbe
Lower -> Birchall
Who do people think will score better for the rest of year. Birchall or Suckling?
Also latest blog posting up with downgrades, upgrades, break evens worth talking about this week.

Excellent write up, jorgo.
And for some strange reason I have a sudden urge to buy a pair of footy boots. Excellent write up, jorgo.
Haha. I think there is a fair bit of info on the blog to help people. So hopefully people take the site it's hosted on with a grain of salt.

Will do just the one and I'll be set for the year.
One of my back cash cows -> Fisher.
One of my back cash cows -> Fisher.
Ablett will remain consistent with Boyd for the remainder of the year IMO, so i would take him purely because he has no bye, and will get an extra 100 odd points overall out of him.
It would only be an extra 100 points if you had no cover.
For people with Swallow/Smith/Hibberd/Heppel etc the different is probably more like 40 points. And Boyd may pick those extra 40 points up as I think he is probably capable of an extra 5ppg on ablett.
But either way both are good selections
