danny hughes being out really stuffs me up.
here was my plan:
to downgrade nason to weberlly making me 130k and then gumby down to hughes. this would give me close to 400k to spend next week. i would then trade howlett ziebell up.

now i am thinking nason to weberly, banner to armstrong (for bench cover), then either next week hitchcock to hayne or gumbleton to watts or wait another week to fully milk hitchcock, then go him to okeefe. also trade howlett to montagna with my cash made next week, then ziebell to premium after that. this would leave me with 8 trades and a complete team.
which fwd trade option would you do. any thoughts would be great.

oh. im 2060. so do you think my trades will boost me into the top 1000 potentially?

Only trade worth doing there is Nason to Webberley. Wait for better midfield rookie options, Armstrong is named on an extended bench and was only a late inclusion last weekend. Furthermore, the entire Crows backline scored well last weekend as a result of their kick to kick game plane. They wont be so lucky this weekend against a fired up Brisbane.

agree with bluke - if you  need cover not armstrong he is a good downgrade if your second bench but unless your sure shuey is back next week its a risk.
