Thinking about doing a double upgrade this week and finishing off my backline thoughts?

Murray/Kelly to Howe/Lloyd

Laird, Yeo, Simpson, Howe, Lloyd, Hibberd (Mirra, Murphy)

Fyfe, Danger, Cripps, Titch, Oliver, Dusty, Spargo, Phillips (Holman, Banfield, Fogarty)

Gawn, Goldy (English)

McLean, Heeney, Sicily, Dahlhause, Fritsch, Ronke (ZGL, Guelfi)

Leaves me with 16 trades but only $15,400 in the bank so i'll prob have to do a double downgrade next week or should i be looking elsewhere

I think Goldy > Ryder in the next 2 weeks is a high priority, as Ryder will bottom out, score better than Goldy convincingly, and be handy over the byes.
So I'd look to do 1 upgrade and 1 downgrade every week for the next few weeks, rather than leaving yourself with no money next week. Ridley is looking like the only decent rookie, so we could be low on options.

Personally, I'd do Murray > Howe, and then downgrade somewhere else.

My DEF is currently: Laird, Yeo, Sicily, Simpson, Savage, Mirra/Keeffe/Ridley

Now im thinking is paying over 700k for Macrae crazy i was thinking Murray to Ridley and Banfield to Macrae once again leaves me with hardly any money but im sure i could find the money from my other rookies

My backs after this week

Laird, Sicily, Simpson, Lloyd, Savage, Doedee (Ridley, Murphy)

I will grab Yeo and Hurley  and put Savage to D7.

My defenders are:
Laird, Sicily,  yeo, Webster, finlayson(who will become Hurley when he bottoms out)
I don't think Simpson is a must have and too popular for my liking. I'd much rather back in Ryan or Howe.

SilverLion

Mine is: Laird, Yeo, Hurley, Sicily, Simpson, Savage (Duman, Mirra)

Don't think I'll trade any of them barring injury or if an exceptional defender rookie pops up.

Might swing Sicily forward at some stage and bring in another prem potentially though.
