3 trades left and might be using 2 this week but neither for GAZ

Who are you using the trades on Capper?

I've got 3 myself and am stupidly thinking of using 2 this week!

Probably gonna do the same to get Gaz somehow.

I think I'll need him as well since I don't have Goldy and I'm still carrying Lumumba and Smith down back. :(

Gonna be joining the club soon.
1 trade and 35k left in case of injuries and knowing my luck this year it's not going to be enough. And admittedly I made some mistakes in my first year. For what it's worth my team looks like this

Shaw, Yeo, Mcdonald, Higgins, Newnes, Simpson(Hamling, Pearce)

Ablett, Fyfe, Pendlebury, Beams, Kennedy, Parker, Rockliff, Wines (Steele, D.McKenzie, Heeney)

Goldy, Maric (Nankervis)

Gray, Martin, Swan, Goddard, Bartel, Zorko (Knight, Read)

That's a decent looking team for a first year player, well done. My major concerns are Beams & Maric, both are likely to be rested at some stage throughout the the last 7 rounds. With 1 trade left I would be planning around avoiding that dreaded ruck donut, pity you couldn't squeeze in Downie but other than that it looks a strong line-up.

Don't think Maric will be rested as had a week of last week suspended

With Hampson doing well I think Maric will be rested, I just can't see Vickery, Griffiths & Hammer all playing together. The weak link lately has been Maric, I'm one of his biggest supporters but he has lost a bit of zip lately, a week or two off wouldn't surprise me in the slightest.

But not against Freo

Difficult to say, could well be Griff in and Maric out. Don't think we need 2 rucks against Sandi and I think Hampson is the better tap ruckman. The fact that he has shown a bit around the ground may give him the edge, time will tell.

Hardwick is mulling it over also, better not or he'll receive a very strongly worded letter from me, he doesn't want that. :P
Don't have him in SC but have him in another comp where im trying to go back to back to back in a moneyleague , it will hurt.

Just a week ago I had 3 trades for injuries.

Jezz, Beams, Gaz bang bang bang.

It's a cruel mistress this game sometimes.

Since I have had no trades im flying. Besides upgrading cripps I dont even have use for trades.
