Trade: coniglio (who is on my bench) out for green
             Gibbs out for pendlebury

Is it worth it?

2 trades for only a modest improvement in your team. I don't think there is enough evidence to be sure Greene will be much better than Coniglio over the journey. I do expect Pendles to outscore Gibbs but both are premo's so I'd just let things roll with Gibbs for a while. Pendles can come later via traditional rookie upgrade methods.

Ablett, Watson, selwood, montagna, gibbs, magner

Are you worried about byes?? if you are and want to trade gibbs out, i would look to a round 11 bye in maybe S.Thommo, Rockliff, Redden or Boyd.

Do you think trading to Boyd would be worthwhile?

is gibbs to boyd worth a trade? what do you think gibbs will do for the year?

i would just let it go, not worth a straight swap between two premos imo. and your mids are already really strong so no need to try strengthen them by going sideways this early. you picked players for a reason give them time, theres a long way to go
