Ended up 2nd and 1st in my leagues. Have 4 trades and 9k left. Didn't trade last week.

Mcveigh, Swallow, Hanley, Simpson, Jaensch, Suckling, (Langford, Bews)
Pendles, Rocky, JPK, Beams, Jelwood, Fyfe, Stevie J, Miles (C. Beans, Honey)
Sandi, Jacobs (Thurlow, King)
Boomer, Danger, Gray, Parker, Dusty, S.Martin (Zorko, Cameron)

So Stevie J is susp yet again. Should I keep him or trade him to Libba/Sloane/Barlow. What to do with Langford/Suckling?

Option 1: Stevie J to Libba and Suckers to Birchall
Option 2: C Beams to Spina and Langford to Bartel
Option 3: Any better options?

Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thx.

Is miles gonna be a starter for the rest of the year for ya?
Perhaps upgrade him and use zork as cover for Stevie for a week?

tommy10

It's either Miles or Zorko starting. Miles was doing well till last week...the Giant curse!

Will loophole Miles this week and see how he goes vs the Bombers. If he kills it then I'll get Bartel. If not, should I trade Stevie J?

trezlek

Prob option 1.
Birch looking good lately. So too libba.

Bartel I don't think is a must.

tommy10

Thanks trezlek. Nice rank btw.
Stevie J is free to play. Is option 2 good? What other options should I go for? Can get Birch/S Mitch instead of Bartel..
I can see how Miles goes and if he kills it then Zorko/ is my emg in fwd.

trezlek

Uve got a real solid team..... The only weakness is suckling, and perhaps miles. Seeing SJ is playing, I'd look at upgrading both those to premos.
Suckling to premo
Then next week if no injuries use a double to upgrade miles to premo if he showers the bed again.
Leaving u with a bit of $$$ and one trade going into round 22?

trezlek

Ah, but u need a double to fund suckling upgrade....
So double this week then upgrade miles next week for Libba. Hope for no injuries this week :)

Yeah I need to do a double, but thinking of keeping Suckling and upgrading Langford. Can do C Beams to Spina and Langford to Bartel/Mitchell. That way I have good cover in Suckling for D7 in case of injuries and got cover for Rucks, Fwds & Mids.
Only 1 trade upgrade I can do is Suckers to Birch, but no good cover for D7.

Rnd 22, will look to upgrade Miles to Libba/Barlow.

Sound good?

trezlek

Sounds good mate! I'd look at price difference between Libba and miles. Might sway ur decision on who u upgrade for Langford. Reason being u only wanna use 1 trade to get Libba in next week.

trezlek

But hey, if ur got good cover on all lines, then zero trades with a couple of weeks may be no prob! Good luck mate :)

tommy10

Thanks mate, yeah will keep an eye on those prices. Miles has BE of 106 and Libba 129 I think, so if Miles kills it, might think of using 1 trade to get Birchall for Suckling.

tommy10

But yeah good quality cover with no trades, I'll be happy with that.

Taking Miles' score of 115. Should I bench Stevie J as my opp doesn't have him, and then move Boomer in the mids and start Zorko? My opp has Zorko.

Need to know before Kangas play. Please help..

Sounds like a decent plan, can't see SJ scoring more than 85.

Thanx Bully. SJ bench it is.
