Me again, needing some bye input

So, here's the situation as it stands now:

Def: Swallow, McVeigh, Simpson, Smitchell, Suckling, Langford (Cutler, Georgiou)
Mid: GAJ, Pendles, Beams, Rocky, Polec, Tyson, Aish, Crouch (LMac, Hallahan)
Ruck Sandi, Hickey (Derrickx, Currie)
Fwd: Danger, Dustmart, Pav, Higgins, JMerrett, JKH (Fasolo, Lloyd)

22 trades, $600k

So I need to make a mid trade to avoid a donut, as I currently can cover Swallow and injured Mitchell out in defence, Hallahan on for one of my mids leaves 3 out, and Fasolo and Lloyd no good on the bench up front leaving Danger and Dustmart out - total 5 out, 17 on field.

LMac is the logical mid out. Also want to flick JMerrett as he's made some cash but will drop now and his scores aren't impressive. Smitchell I could flick now or hold, I'll move him on to Bartel I think so I could do that either this week or next. May as well pull the trigger this week to leave me with 3 trades next week but I'll wait to see teams and check any last minute trades first.

So, Merrett and LMac out, who to bring in? I'm thinking Roughead and KJack. Both underpriced, KJack has had one bad game against Collingwood for 62 then back to his best, makes his average look bad but if you take it out he's going at 114... Equally Roughy has had a couple of 40 point shockers but other than that scoring well, and has a nice draw coming up. might be a little quiet vs sydney but a BE of 51 means he wont get cheaper. Equally Jack has a pretty decent run coming up, a couple of hard games but BE of 82 says grab him now also.

Leaves me with 250k in the kitty, seems like a solid plan?
