Seems to be a definite changing of the guard at the Swans with the likes of Rowbottom/Warner/Florent getting plenty of CBAs and Parker/JPK getting squeezed out a bit. That's the main thing concerning me with Parker.

I think I’ll keep Whitfield for the time being until I’ve upgraded some of the moo cows. Possibly look to flick him around the byes. He actually didn’t have that bad a game on the weekend. 25 touches at 73%. 4 turnovers hurt him. Lack of contested possies hurt him.
But, he still found the ball and he spent 83% time on ground. The time to flick him would’ve been round 2, but he’s lost 40k now and I hate a sideways premo trade. Premo is stretching it, but I’m just treating him like a mid-pricer that I’ll eventually have to upgrade.
We were all hoping for Rowell to be a keeper, and after round one those of us that had picked him were licking our chops. He might come good, he might not, but I’ve got the chance to go him to Touk Touk this week and that’s a win imo. JHF the sacrificial lamb.
Rosas could be a decent option if you’re willing to cull a moo cow a tad prematurely. You could then go Rowell > nearly anyone.
Yeah trade assist always tryna * my s**t up.

If there was a 4th ruck spot with all these ruc/fwd players, picking big bad Braydon would be so easy.

Rowe to Zorko means I have 5 premium defenders
and Xerri to Preuss means I have money earner in Preuss on bench
with $103’900 k in bank

Nice work mate, lookin good.
You could also get rid of Stephens > Rosas via Rachele to the mids.
That’s an extra $70k in the kicker plus Rosas looks set to make a bit of cash.
I probably wouldn’t cull Xerri just yet either, take it from someone who did
A forward line full of rucks
I'm sticking with Bowey at least for next few weeks
Glad to have dodged Gibcus
I think so yes.
Next week will be Hinge to Worner (dpp loop. 30 possessions and 2 goals in the wafl last week)
Dixon to Hayes.
Ward to Oliver.

Who is the more important trade in option this week:
TITCH - looks to have dropped with the sore groin, and has bounced back over the past two games. Anyone scoring 140+ with only one tackle is good. Has an incredibly low BE, and had been said as having the first full preseason in years. Only concern is the reduced CBA with changing of the guard, but not sure it matters when he scores how he did on the weekend.
GAWN - has found form, and the next few weeks are looking scrumptious - Nank, Lynch, Ryder and Marshall (fair), Williams and Dixon, Xerri.... reckon he goes 130+ in that stretch alone

I think Grundy will come good but i want the 350k that Grundy > Pruess nets me and the option to do Hayes > Hayes next week. Bit risky having Pruess/Hayes as R2, but only need it to work for 5 weeks and ill upgrade Pruess. Risky move, but I'm ranked like 30k so whatever lol, worst start in a while.
Grundy > Pruess
JFH > Touk Miller
Rachelle > Butters
Grundy (110), JHF (70) and Rachelle (70) = 250ppg
Miller (110), Butters (100) and Pruess (90) = 300ppg
I also have 100k left over and will do Hayes > Hayes next week which should give me another 150k, leaving me with 250k for
in Oliver (600k)
out Berry/Rowell (380-400k)
That will leave my mids in round 7 - Macrae, Neale, Miller, Oliver, Cripps and 3 of Rowell, Berry, Brodie & Daicos. Ward, Macdonald & Stephens benched. Will be pretty happy with that and thr last 3 shouldn't be too hard to upgrade (150-200k each)

After falling from 26th to 411 and only using 1 trade to date, I need to be aggressive.
Preuss on the field is the best bet; 200k and should put up 90+ scores. Best value on the field. Grundy is the only way to make that happen.
Rosas looks like a good rookie to grab too.
Steele isn’t the best value, but looks like he’ll be a top 5 mid, so I’ll grab him.
This round:
Grundy to Preuss.
Rowell to Steele.
JHF to Rosas.
303k in the bank.
Next week:
Rachele to premo.
+ potentially a rookie downgrade if there is one (won’t need the cash tho)

I know lots are trading him out, but I'd hold Grundy unless you have big issues
