Not enough starting premos?
Rip into it lads! Rookies?
This is almost the same as my team. The backline is exactly the same. The overall differences are Hanners instead of Treloar, Goldy instead of Gawn, Witts at R3 and I've gone with Hoskin-Elliot and Turner in the forward line instead of Nank and Houston.
I'm personally not a fan of Nank, I think if you want ruck cover you're better off taking a stab at Witts/Preuss/Cameron at R3. Otherwise it looks really good.
Are you worried about your backline?
Very weak imo.
Very worried. An suggestions on how to fix thuoy, thurlow and down an uber premo?
Hard to say... you could lose one of Beams, O'Mera or Swallow and upgrade in the backline.
Or even drop out a premium mid for a back but other then that the team is pretty solid.
So to strenghten DEF:
Marchbank>Tuohy
O'Mera>Atley
Better balance?

Wigg no, Fox 50/50. Barrett a good shot if he gets promoted.
Some more tinkering:

Danger Pendles Selwood Treloar Fyfe Beams O'Mera PP (Miles Barret Pickett)
Gawn Sandi (Strnadica)
Dahl Macrae Roughy WHE Taranto Eddy (Parfitt Butler)
Better balance?
Only Issue no back up for Sandi if he goes down in early Rounds, If you could swing WHE to Nank would do that as both would score similar imo.
Apart from that issue no other real issues canm not all have the same team.
Cheers for advice ringo. Been trying to get Nank in but would have to do the following to make it happen:
Gawn>Goldy
Selwood>Bont
Docherty>Laird
WHE>Nank
Might work?

Reasonable but I do feel like I am giving up on the guys that have shown they can get uber scores: Gawn, Doc, Selwood. Each of those trades is step down just to get nank.

Taranto to a gun for me, Though Jaeger isn't scoring well his JS is pretty safe.
Every chance Taranto gets dropped this week, Lock in a premium forward as forward rookies are a bit shaky this year

Id say Sandi will need to be upgraded aswell.
So if you say you need 150k for each defender, 300k for the SPP, 150k for each of Witts and Sandi. 200k for Butler. At a rough estimate you will need 1.250 mil to upgrade those players.
If you estimate you can make $150k off all downgrades on average which could be a little high if you bail on players like Hibberd, Eddy at 50-100k gains you will need 8 to have enough for all the upgrades
So 7 Upgrades, 8 Downgrades. This would leave you with 6 trades from either further downgrades, Injury or corrections. Feel like you might be cutting it a little fine.

Interesting thoughts. Agree with you, do you have any advice for my team then?
If you wind back my proposed 4 trades to where I am now:
25 trades left
240k bank
9 upgrades needs
Are you saying I need to make my bank work harder than going for greene? Should I be looking for more value?
TBH i feel that you are in a fairly similar position to a lot of teams, maybe with 1 less trade and a bit extra in the bank. The teams that haven't had to correctional trade are likely 2-3 trades better off at the moment with either 8 or 9 upgrades left.
As such i think it is crucial to find value whilst also maximising cash generation.
Alot are only looking week by week, not 3, 4 or 5 weeks ahead.
Option 1

I think the first option is just better, because I wouldn't want to play Balic/Taranto. Parfitt and Butler are making cash, so they are safe for the time being.
I went with greene, oh well.

I assume you have done a down and up for Doc. So maybe forgo Doc if Eddy not named and do a double down this week. Doc has a B/e of 97 this week so may not raise much at all.

Waiting a week on Stewart to Llyod could save you up to 50k, may cost you up to 50 points this week but could be well worth it in the long run.

Nank or Shaw need to be upgraded IMO, would downgrade Ryan/Scharenberg to do it. Would upgrade to Hurley/Ryder, but with Hurley not playing this week, that should make the decision a little easier ;)
How much money left?
Lynch to a decent forward would be nice if you can do it in one trade so you can loophole him with Nank would be smart.
I dont think I would use both trades this week though with that team, it looks pretty good.
