Hey guys, after some opinions if possible. I'm short a ruck this week with Kreuzer out (R2 is Giles...), Redden and Derickx on the bench not playing. I'm currently 4th in my league only after the league win. A win this week should ensure I make the finals.

Problem is I've got 2 trades left, and really average/non-existent backup across all my lines, and only $91,500 in the bank. Team is as follows:

Deledio  Goddard  Lake  Shaw (H)  Mackie  Carrazzo  Darley  (Golby, Paine)
Thompson (S)  Ablett  Selwood (J)  Stanton  Boyd  Swan  (B Hill, Crozier)
Kreuzer  Giles  Redden  Derickx
Sidebottom  Dangerfield  Pavlich  Chapman  Porplyzia  Zorko  Dickson  (T Adams, Sexton)

Tempted to offload Kreuzer and bring in someone either cheaper or the same price, and then replace Golby in my backline next week or closer to the finals for my final trade.

OR, with Danger probably missing (and Dickson, with no cover), so I just eat the zeros and have a crack next week?

Thanks!

I reckon you take donuts. You don't want to make the finals but have no trades remaining.

Some would argue that having Kreuzer is the equivalent of a doughnut

True, he's been pretty useless! Either him or Giles will be gone before finals either way. Will hold this week and see how we go!

Where have all your trades gone?  You're quite a few upgrades short of where you should be with that amount of trades left.

In any case, I don't think you're in a position to trade Kreuzer, or Giles for that matter. Your best bet would probably be to hold on to those trades until finals (assuming you make them) and do a double trade to bring in a premium forward to replace Dickson. Brogan has been dropped so Giles' scores should pick up, atleast for this week.

Also who can you afford if you trade Kreuzer?

you have to hold for now, but i'd light a lot of candles to whatever god you prefer for the rest of the season.

Mate Dangerfield will play! he would play with a broken leg, he just has a strained finger. back page of todays Advertiser in Adelaide.
