Interesting situation.

[lions(L)]

I currently have knights,petrie & krakouer in my forward line and i was considering trading one of them for prestia (most likely knights) and then upgrading adcock in my backline to somone under 425k (most likey connors or hurn).
But the thing is i already have 4 GC players(2 starters/2benches)
Is it wort considering this trade?
My current Backs & Forwards are:
Backs:Goddard Gibbs Enright Duffield Adcock A.Ottens Heppel (Toy Talia Faulks)
Fwds:N.Riewoldt Pavlich Goodes Cyril Petrie Knights A.Krakouer (Richardson Lamb I.Smith)

Maybe trade Petrie out and put him in your ruckline?

[lions(L)]

I was thinking of that also,
then start prestia in the forwards?
My rucks atm are sandi & fraser.

[lions(L)]

Actually,i like the look of puting petrie into the rucks,
but then who is a good buy for under 432k in the backs?
i was thinking grimes?

Grimey can be a little fragile...

if he can string a full season together he will be great value...

Hurn would be my choice in that bracket Connors tends to turn it over

[lions(L)]

But in saying that,
hurn only played 15 games last year compared to grimes' 14.

[RiOtChEsS]

Grimey only played 14 the year before too where as Hurn played 22 and avg 93...

still its ur choice just providing some fact and my thoughts ;)

Grimes may take up Cam Bruce's role of the rebounding defender. Could be a huge get if he does. Can't see any other defender at Melbourne taking up this role.

i would go exactly with what you first suggested. dont like knights, but i do like prestia. dont like adcock, but i do like hurn.
replacing 2 injury prone players with 1 rookie who is likely to do some real good this year, and a proven scorer with mild injury woes.
case solved.
