Ranked 10th after Round 18... help me not panic trade

Mat0369 · August 01, 2015, 06:04:40 PM

I think Lewis will be better down the stretch compared to Selwood. Selwood will crash and burn next week against the Swans. I do prefer Picken over Yeo by a fair bit though

Picken was about $120k more expensive :(

That's always the issue but I guess you get what you pay for with Picken. Unfortunately as the season goes on money gets tighter and trades become gold.

Looks like after this week I'll have one trade left :(

But I'm 10th, and feel I need to go for broke. Also in the final 32 in the eliminator. BUT I have decent cover in most lines.

Traded McKernan/Steele out this week for Gawn (I'll need the ruck flexibility) and Scharenberg (no real decent option, as I needed a defender as Higgins had to go forward).

Ah well, you don't die wondering.

D: H Shaw, L Hodge, J Newnes, E Yeo, K Simpson, B Smith <B Maynard, M Scharenberg>
M: D Hannebery, S Pendlebury, D Swan, D Armitage, D Mundy, P Dangerfield, L Parker, J Lewis <R Knight, N Fyfe, J Glenn>
R: T Goldstein, N Naitanui <M Cox>
F: D Martin, B Goddard, R Gray, S Higgins, M Bontempelli, M Gawn <C Daniel, B Deledio>

Captain this week? stumped. Think I'll back Pendles. Not confident though

Pretty good work there mate. Gotta do what ya gotta do in times like this. Ruck cover could pay off at some point.
What about Rocky as Captain has had some huge scores against GC.

Don't have him :(

Good luck Os, having a cracking season so far. Your DPP flexibility is very handy to have.

Torpedo10 · August 07, 2015, 10:13:13 PM

Good luck Oss, I personally would've taken on Parker as Captain.

All over with Nic Nat out. Goddammit could've covered it if announced before lock up

Mat0369 · August 12, 2015, 06:11:47 PM

Big Maxy is going to come in very handy this week for you. It means you can hold Nic Nat.

There is still a lot of time. If things fall your way, especially captains options you can make up ground quick. I reckon you have better depth then first to cover injuries as well.

why would you not capitan Goldy given his form. Much much better than parker. Almost tripled his score in the end.
