Team attached :)

How much cash do you have left. Do you have enough to upgrade Clohessey to say Houston to virtually complete defence as well. If not probably just get rid of some more dead wood eg Jones who is out for some time to Freijah, Only made $60k but worth it and if Burgess still out you can loop both Richards and Freijah.

Got next to nothing cash wise!

Have to start building up cash again.

Garcia to Richards gets me 90K, Jones/Rogers to Freeijah doubles that, then might have to wait for next week to trade Clohesy to Phillips and possibly get an upgrade.

Nice team got some good trades in. Houston definitely a target for down back with his bye.
Richards and Sullivan should hopefully hold their spots. McCreery and Mihocek likely back this week but the injuries to Hoskin-Elliot and McInnes hopefully means they hold.

Oh did you already trade Garcia to Richards this week? I'd do one of Jones/Burgess instead. Garcia still has cash to make and had a good VFL game and with saints losing he might come back in. Burgess less so and Jones injured. Could wait on teams too.

OK, I will reverse this weeks one trade and wait for teams :)

With Jones being out long term I would hold Garcia. I'd be more inclined to fix the Burgess pick to Richards otherwise it has to be Jones. It may be the week to double down and the other rookies on the bubble are Freijah, Visentini, Day and Johnstone. You also have guys like Swallow, Reville and Morris that have had price fluctuations but could see some spikes. You could do someone like Burgess to Freijah which pockets you another 70k and fix set you up with some bye coverage.

J.Clark to Freijah tonight.

I guess Richards is a must for cash gen? So will need to trade Garcia anyway. Looping Freijah would be nice though!

Goosey · May 26, 2024, 10:46:19 AM

With Flanders out I get the Freijah E anyway!

Pulled the trigger on Garcia to Richards so happy with his 100 at F6.

Had the VC on Ryan but only have one non playing bench and that is Coffield who was locked out so will stick with big Max as the C.

arbel · May 27, 2024, 12:47:55 PM

Having to keep C on Gawn proved good and being able to dodge the Flanders donut helped.
Team is looking good

Round Score 2420
Overall Rank 2015 (up 1303)

I can't help but think any upgrades this week will only backfire in the next few. Surely the best plan is to hold fire until the first week of byes is out the way so we can pick upgrades that don't have a game to miss?

I have plenty of playing players this week, not sure if I will trade or not?

Ringo · May 27, 2024, 06:51:34 PM

With Richards out for 4 weeks what are you doing with him. Maybe do a double downgrade this week to build cash for your upgrades, Depends on trades left.

Nice rank.

arbel · May 27, 2024, 06:59:31 PM

Darcy and Clohesy also towards the end of their money making. Depending on trades could offload them. If you have enough players Richards could be a hold if you can navigate the byes

Mat0369 · May 27, 2024, 07:09:53 PM

It may not be a bad week to set you up for the rest of the byes, Fisher is one to keep an eye on next week at his price, but you could look at something like Brown, Clohesy and Darcy to Livingston, Dawson and Houston. It might give you the cash next week to go Sweet to Fisher straight up? It would leave you 19 this week if Burgess plays
