Blues Blues Blues is back!

[PowerBug]

Our defences are identical so I share that pain :'(

I would hold Billings and Goldstein this week. I think Billings is one you just sit on until Rd 14 and trade out there if things haven't turned around. As for Goldstein my plan when he turned to pie (and I've since seen mentioned plenty of times here) is to wait until Rd 11 and then trade to Ryder, who is dropping cash at a quicker rate and bottoms out after this round. Also gives a player to play through the entire multi byes.

Naughton to Phillips (Swing Sic back and Spargo fwd), then Finlayson to Yeo. I suggest it because that's what my current trade plans are :P  You could always just do Naughton to Yeo if you wanted and sit on the trade for a week if you don't like jumping on rookies early as well

Need some help please guys and girls.

Yeo, Sicily, Simpson, Laird, Howe, Hurley (Austin, Murphy)
Fyfe, Mitchell, Cripps, Oliver, Danger, Martin, JPK, Brayshaw (Spargo, Ahern, Barry)
Gawn, Goldy (Olango)
Heeney, Gray, Westhoff, McLean, Fritsch, Guelfi (T Smith, Ryan)

10 trades and $61.6k.

I’m toying with 2 options:

1. Bolster forwards: Fritsch and Spargo to Lloyd and Battle (via Sicily forwards)
2. Bolder mids: Fritsch and Brayshaw to Kelly and Battle.

Lloyd has a BE of 108 and playing Tigers at Etihad, and Kelly has a BE of 55 and playing Hawks at Spotless.

Thoughts?

So basically Lloyd v Kelly Think the Kelly option better for team balance at the moment for you and probably the better scoring.

So here we are - finals!

Have to deal with Howe. Buddy worries me. And I want Macrae.

Def: Lloyd, Laird, Yeo, Simpson, Hurley, HOWE (Murphy, Austin)
Mid: Danger, Dusty, Cripps, Mitchell, Kelly, Oliver, JPK, Ahern (Sier, Spargo, Barry)
Ruc: Gawn, Goldy (Olango)
Fwd: Gray, Hoff, Smith, Heeney, McLean, BUDDY (Ryan, Battle)

4 trades, $106k

Thinking Howe to Webster, and Buddy to Macrae (via Ahern to forwards)

I think Ahern can outscore Buddy, as I think Buddy may be rested given his injury and lack of training. Plus the Swans are going rubbish, and play Pies, Demons, Giants and Hawks in last 4.

Thoughts?!

I'd try to get Grundy in the rucks for Goldy, feel like he's in for a big year.
