So this week I'm thinking about getting rid of Mitch Robinson. One of my trades will be spent on getting rid of Mitchell for Crouch. Then here's what I'm thinking with the other:

1) Trade Robinson for Rowe. This frees up cash so that I can hopefully get Franklin in the next few weeks.

2) Trade Robinson for Martin. Catch Martin on the rise? I chose Robbo over Martin to begin with and I'm annoyed about the money I've lost with this trade. Ah well.

3) Give Robinson a chance and trade out Daw for Rowe instead. This is annoying because I'd rather have Rowe in the fwd. And I don't mind having Daw to use for loopholes etc. Still a decent option though.

I've got 78100 in the bank.
What are Fan Footy's thoughts? Any help would be much appreciated  ;D

It would help if we knew the structure of your forward line so that we can make sense of what the best trade would be.

Assuming the Robinson is your 3rd or 4th forward id like to see him go up to Martin/Bartel/Rockliff or someone else that will inject your team with points immediately.

However if you are happy with the way your forwards are performing at the moment then yes trading to Rowe would be a good option as it will allow you to free up cash that you can use elsewhere.

At the end up the day you want to fix the lines that have the most problems first, if this is your forwards then go up, if it is elsewhere go down to Rowe.

Yeah sorry, i tried to attach a pic but it wouldnt let me.
My team is:

D: Gibbs, Goddard, Heppell, Goodes, Heat, Pittard, (Stevenson, Terlich)
M: Pendlebury, J.P.Kennedy, Ablett, Deledio, Dangerfield, Wines, Viney, O'Meara, (Stevens, Mitchell)
R: Giles, Leuenberger, (Blicavz, Daw)
F: Cox, Bartel, Rockliff, J.J.Kennedy, Robinson, Neade, (Macaffer, Lee)

So going off what you said Martin could be the best trade? That would make sense. My goal is to get Franklin before rd 8 though, and this seemed like a good opportunity to generate cash. Thanks for the advice  :D

Considering that Robbo is your 5th forward i think that going down to Rowe is a decent option especially considering you will have 3/4 proven scorers on the field (not sold on JJK yet). You really cant go wrong either way here, although i strongly suggest using the money the you make from downgrading Robbo to strengthen your rucks as neither of them are guaranteed keepers for the year.

Yeah not really happy with my ruck. Giles should perform with Brogan out though. Kinda banking on him not playing a full season haha. And leunberger will most likely end up being an upgrade to a premo forward, with Cox coming into ruck.

Thanks again for your suggestions, leaning towards trading Robbo to Rowe.
