Are you trying to beat your fella this week, or in overall ranking?

That is generally a very strong team. Ruck would be the first priority I'd think. You would ideally want Cox, but will be out of your price range unless you do a downgrade somewhere else. Maybe look at Mumford, Jacobs or McEvoy.

Only other premium you don't have that you might want to look at is Grimes in your defence, for either Fisher or Ellis.

Good luck!

Yep if Buddy doesn't come back then do what Spinking said. Can you afford Giles>Jacobs and Fisher>Grimes? I don't think you do...
If Buddy still isn't named then grab Stevie J.

Hope you beat him!

a big stick should do the job ;)

I'd be bringing in McEvoy in the rucks if it was me.

Or

Bring in grimes for Ellis/shaw. Ellis will make a better D8 than Shaw.

Just wait for teams FRIDAY night, as rumors are Birchall, Micthell and Dangerfield might be rested...

I really think NicNat in the rucks needs to be considered.

Beat me instead. :-* :-*

Oh that is just great - my first trifecta for the year!

I would look at a better D 7.

Giles is doing just fine.

Lots of ugly Buddy rumours too.
