Backs: Deledio, Scotland, Rance, H.Shaw, Houli, Spurr, Baguley (Wilkes, L.Brown)
Mid: Ablett (c), Swallow, Goddard, Dal Santo, Priddis, Stanton (Smith, Sutcliffe)
Ruck: Cox, Giles (Stephenson, Pattison)
Fwd: Pavlich, Franklin, Sidebottom, Beams, Rioli, Zorko, Johnson (Smedts, Walsh)

4 trades in hand, $75,900 in the bank


Need some advice about finals trades!
Assuming Franklin plays this week, was thinking about downgrading Smedts to Couch and moving Franklin back into the forward line.

Next, was thinking about upgrading Stanton to either Watson or Pendlebury. This would leave me with 2 trades left and ~80k for the final last few trades.
People's opinions?
Is Jobe Watson likely to continue his high scoring in the next few weeks??

I would shore up your backline first.

+1

(BTW Which Johnson do you have? MJ or SJ)

The_duke

M. Johnson :(

Something like: Smedts to Couch, then Spurr to Carazzo, Gibson or Birchall?
Or do you have any other suggestions?

I think Watson will score 120+ remainder of the season......that said stanton did score 180 last time he played the roos. Food for thought. Your backline is your weakest area maybe consider some hawks for big scores (birchall suckling burger)

Here is what I would do:

1. Orren --> Rookie
2. Baguley --> Suckling

wait one round

semi go for broke:
Spurr-->FWD rookie (DPP mids as well (EG:Couch))
Smith --> FWD premo

That looks like it could work out quite nicely, but could i potentially go:

Orren --> Rookie (? Hall from GC)
Spurr --> Birchall (potentially Suckling, although named as emergency??)

and then next week take advantage of baguley's price rise (BE -10, compared to Spurr's BE 34), could go Baguley to Carrazo?

Still would like to get Jobe into my team somehow though!
