All week I have been thinking of trading out either HIGGINS or RIOLI but once the teams were released I have been sliding towards the following: (I only have $7,900 in the bank but 24 Trades up my sleeve)

Duigan to HIBBERD or PUOPOLO

Liberatore to CHAPMAN

I will be suffering a DONUT in either the midfield or forward line this week with the following benches below so this gives me a MMP in the midfield and another week to wait on HIGGINS and RIOLI in the forward line to get themselves right.

Def: Goddard, Gibbs, Enright, Deledio, Lower, Heppell, Duigan (Toy, Otten, Buckley)
Mid: Judd, Selwood, Boyd, Swallow, Harris, Liberatore (Bewick, Irons, Pendlebury )
Ruck: Sandiland, Cox (Smith, McCauley)
For: Riewoldt.N, Goodes, Franklin, Petrie, Matera, Darling, Higgins (Richardson, Rioli, Krakouer)

If anyone has another option you would be of great help, really stewing on this! :-\

roo boys!

I have the same predicament. Have the same midfield benchies too except I have Swan not Pendles..very similar team as mine, 20 of the players are in my team, and 2 were previously.

Just did the maths and it doesn't fit! >:(

So now I'm at logger heads, its either Higgins or Rioli that has to go I feel.

Looks great, but surely you dont have enough money to make this trade??

So what do you think roo boy?

roo boys!

I have decided to keep them both, seeing as I ssinf start with either of them!

After round 1 (J.Brown injury) I was tossing up Cyril or JRoo, I went with Cyril, scored 140, got reported and then he comes back and does a hammy.

Was tossing up Fyfe vs Higgins a few weeks ago, chose Higgins because he had already had his first bye, and I had too many Freo players, then Fyfey keeps pulling out 120's and Higgins scores 80 and misses two weeks with 'soreness'.

Whoever is out for longer should go. Just wish they would actually give us a time frame.

I would say Higgins might be out longer. I really hoped he was over the niggles but if they knew exactly what his diagnosis was surely they would of said something. At least Clarko said Rioli is been given an extra week so he's right for the saints match. I am leaning towards the Higgins trade.

I feel like I have some concerns with my midfield bench. Irons was a failure, Bewick will hopefully be back soon. I am hopeful Isaac Smith gets a bit of it and is an option for Liberatore, not sure if there is anymore improvement from him to come and could really use the MPP in the mids.

higgins to chapman?

Seems like the best strategic trade of the lot.
