Mid Upgrade?

[braoudakis]

During the byes I was 900th overall, I've had a late season disaster and some poor trades have lead me to this team and 5,500th overall. I'm in the top 4 in all of my 5 leagues.

DEF: Goddard, Heppel, Gibbs, Hartlett, Shaw, Grimes (Clisby, Wilson)
MID: Swan, Ablett, Penduls, Barlow, K.Jack, Stanton, Priddis, T.Mitchell (Murphy, B.Jack)
RUCK: Cox, Kreuzer (Vardy,Grimley)
FORWARD: Martin, Rockliff, Stevie J, Stokes, Roo, Staker (Rowe, Daniher)
250K in the kitty.

What would you do and what is the best mid upgrade for Mitchell?

Maby jimmy bartel or Kennedy in ur forwards staker is no good on the field is ok for bench cover, so many one of ur bench ruckman to Grundy from the pies then upgrade staker to a premo, doing that will leave u with cash to upgrade in ur backs or midds next week, or upgrade Mids this week and do ur forward upgrade next week, wld be handy to get a win this week if you are top 4 and have the week off so whichever upgrade u think is gunna get u over the line, hope that's of help

Thoughts on Lachie Hansen is the forward line, and who would i trade for him, Staker, Rowe or Daniher?

As you are top 4 in all your leagues then could be worth a punt, but you have to consider if he has a crap game will you keep him, bloke you are getting in now a blokes you want to have for the rest of the season and are going to score well

hansen ave:71, last 3ave 103 price $366k, has had some good scores of late but he has a ave of 71 for a reason, has had 8 scores over 90 and 7 under 90 with a zero, i havnt followed him too much but hes had a 34, 28 and a 18 so those few scores aren't too flash.

If he keeps up how hes going then ud be rite i was at the game against the cats and he had a great game so you may as well take the punt on him, worst case he has a crap game and sack him, as for who to swap out you need coverage of at least 1 player, daniher would be first followed by rowe ans staker last as staker has best job security, rowe mite play the rest of the year and daniher well who knows, pretty much a cash issue.
