First of all, thoughts on the team in general? Good/bad?
I've posted my team a few weeks ago, but want some thoughts on my final few trades. Have 5 left and $6,300 in the bank.

Obviously my weakness falls in back and forwards and my thoughts are I need one upgrade in each area, but to do so, with that amount of cash, obviously I need to downgrade. Targets for downgrade are Callinan and Talia who, between the two of them, could slot in to any position other than ruck. Also forgot to mention I need to get rid of Shaw as $315k is no use to me sitting on the bench.

Targets for upgrade are mainly Fyfe and Fisher (yes I know they're both common as injuries in the Dockers camp, but they seem the best options to 'complete' my team.

Fisher I will wait another week and he'll come down in price most likely with a B/e of 139 or so. Fyfe may come in this week with a double trade, ? > Talia/Callinan and then ? > Fyfe. Then I can straight swap Shaw to Fisher next week and hang on to the last 2 trade and cross my fingers and toes that I have no guns injured and not too many players rested.

You will note that the only player with a finals bye is Gibbs, so bye cover is not a massive issue.

Thanks for reading!

suckling in the backs will polish it off

forward line looks to be the only suspect area imo.
otherwise quite a team.
