Nearly finalised team, any thoughts to boost my team!?

[higgogun!]

Heres my side:

Backs: Goddard, Hartlett, Heppell, Shaw, Ibbotson, Mckenzie   EMG: Terlich, Thurlow

Mids: Ablett, Pendlebury, Swan, Selwood, Swallow, Priddis, Fyfe, T Mitchell   EMG: Wines, Hunter
Rucks: Minson, Kreuzer  EMG: Blicavs, Nicholls
Forwards: Cox, Naitunui, Johnson, Martin, Kennedy, Rockliff  EMG: Staker, Lee

8 trades left    $121,800

Mids are my real concern at the moment with a few underperformers!
ANy thoughts or advice?

Id go Thurlow to Oxley as both have pretty bad JS (So it doesn't matter) but gives you DPP between Backs and Forward through Staker and Oxley.

Swallow is one underperforming and Wines is a lot of money to just be sitting on the bench. As you have 7 trades and now $236,000 could I suggest you wait a week on Wines then upgrade him to one of Jack or Barlow, (Both consistent- Barlow better draw) or other cheap under performers in JPK, S. Mitchell, or Cotch who should all turn it around and are all averaging around 110.

Next week get rid of Blicavs to Mcbean giving you DPP between him and Naitanui and Cox which will become handy allowing you to continue Nicholls at R3. Leaves you with 5 trades and $250,000 with upgrade targets of Griffen, Danger, and any other Mids in good form come finals time.

Possible team in two weeks..

Backs: Goddard, Hartlett, Heppell, Shaw, Ibbotson, Mckenzie   EMG: Terlich, Oxley

Mids: Ablett, Pendlebury, Swan, Selwood, Swallow, Priddis, Fyfe, Barlow/Jack   EMG: T Mitchell, Hunter
Rucks: Minson, Kreuzer  EMG: Nicholls, Mcbean
Forwards: Cox, Naitunui, Johnson, Martin, Kennedy, Rockliff  EMG: Staker, Lee

Leaves you with 5 trades, and $250,000. Plenty of trades for possible LTI's

Hope this helps! Good defence, forwards and rucks, just the Mids which need a touch up! Well done with the amount of trades left! Good coverage which will help later on. Good luck mate!
