Here is my team:

BACKS: Goddard, Hodge, Enright, Gilbee, Goodwin, Carrazzo, Waters
Nason, Strik

MIDS: Ablett, Montagna, Mitchell, Cooney, Judd, Pendlebury
Colyer, Gysberts

RUCKS: Sandilands, Clark
Trengove, Lobbe

FORWARDS:Chapman, Pavlich, Franklin, Goodes, O'Keefe, Podsiadly, Fyfe
Ziebell, Roberts

I have $39,900 on the cap and 4 trades remaining. I have come into a good situation with my reserves, as I have playing reserve in backs, rucks and mids currently. I am secure top 4 in all my leagues so nothing outrageous needs to be done. However, this week I am looking at not downgrading Ziebell like I was first going to do, but as there is not many decent cheap options to trade to that will play the rest of the season, I will trade Ziebell to Brennan, at a cheap price of 309k and Brennan will become my 7th forward, with Fyfe a solid scoring emergency for the forwards. If Brennan loses the plot again then he will be my reserve.

I will be left with 3 trades going into finals time and hopefully have a win in my first week leaving me with a week off. If this happens I will do a downgrade in the week off and then two upgrades going into preliminary final, and be left with no trades for the final, but I need to my best to get there. Or I could downgrade in the week before prelim and upgrade that week also, leaving me with one trade for grand final (if i get this far and if things work out).

What do people think of the Brennan trade and how I should play out my remaining 3?

that last 3 is barring an major injuries of course, because I may have lti's to attend to. The players I would look at trading would be Nason or Colyer downgrade depending on who is dearer at the time - then upgrade Waters to a player around 450k, and upgrade maybe Mitch Clark to Cox if I can afford it.

I ended up doing the Brennan trade, so my team is as follows. I am top 4 in each league, have three trades remaining and about 27k cap room. Barring any LTI's I am thinking downgrade Colyer or Nason to a cheapie and then upgrade one of Waters or Clark (possibly to Cox if he hits some form).. and with my other trade, I might bring in Roo for Pods.
