Thoughts would be greatly appreciated with some good $$$ on leauge win at stake!

My team currently is:

BACK
enright, Hodge, hurn, , goddard, broughton, grimes, drummond  (raines,p.burgoyne )

MID
Ablett, Lids, Bartel, j.selwood, pandles, dal santo (muston, anthony)

RUCK
Hmac, white (COX, jacobs)

FORWARD
pav, J.brown, Buddy, S.jono, Fev, ROO, m.clarke (walker Brown)

Having made it this far and been able to conserve 2 valuable trades what should be the next movo?

Now looks like i have no cover in forward line but i am not to concerned about that, I am thinking the rucks is the problem.

CONSIDERING:
COX-SANDI with only 6k in bank this will make me about 50k and save one trade for injury or possible upgrade in back should grimes/bourgoyne not play.

Thoughts?? other options??

I agree, your mids are fine, and you should get through without a donut with that line up, though I'd keep one trade just in case.  I agree that White is your weak link and is good bench cover but you can add 50 points to your score if you upgrade.  Sandi is the obvious choice (seeing as you have Mitch in you fwd line). 

If you want to free up a bit more cash you could consider Petrie (last few weeks have been solid), and could get you one more star to round out the backline (assuming no more injuries to deal with of course!)

yea not to worried about the cash as i should be able to afford anyone in backline with a grimes upgrade as i will have about 60k in bank.

As far as rucks after checking all other players in my league noone has SANDI in their team with 2 having PETRIE so i think i have an advantage as SANDI should produce a larger score than PETRIE on most weeks.

Out of interest who would you suggest for backline upgrade?

NEWMAN, HARGRAVE, DUFFIELD???
