Still trying to weigh up Rocky's replacement

Gray - slight concerns about being stuck as a permanent forward with all the Port outs
TMitch - Such a ball magnet and started in ridiculous form
or Parker - all round gun

Think Gray is the safest bet, but you pay top $$. TMitch and Parker are undervalued, it is a tough choice. I think Gray is still the best option here mate.

After much deliberation, think I'm going with the following:

Rockliff > Liberatore
Gresham > Hartley (via big DPP switch)

Wasn't easy this week. Chose not to pick Libba at the start because of his huge ownership percentage, but the freeing up that much cash makes it worth while! Hopefully he can average around 110 and be a keeper.

Will miss out on Hall, but I'm okay with that, Barlow gets another week.

Depending you how your team sits you can give the Gresham trade another week with Hartley only playing one game and Gresham not changing value... Not sure if this plays a part in your plans, good luck

Am I jumping the gun with trading these two out?

I wanted to do Barlow to papley and yeo to JJ. 

Other option is leave one or both of yeo and barlow  and trade gresham for papley. 

I can't see barlow coming good and yep has had a horrid start too.  The last thing I want is for two under performing promos haemorrhaging cash all year and delivering shower scores..

Gresham is likely to be dead weight, trade him to Papley on the bubble. Barlow may come good and has a better history than Yeo.

Barlow and Rocky on the block this week and normally would be looking for proven premiums to replace, but I am toying with the idea of trading down both to Zaha/Zerrett.

The idea is to raise some extra cash early on (cirac $170K to get the upgrade process underway a week earlier down the track), Zerrett looks like he should average 90-100 so becomes a keeper. Zaha has started well and may either keep scoring well, or become a good stepping stone by going up around $100Kish in the next couple of rounds. Is there any merit in this logic?

Alternative is to just trade Rocky, only $560K to play with the only option other than Zaha I like is Zorko, swing forward later. If I trade both (Barlow > Zerrett) I can stretch to Ward/Tictch/Blicavs.

Any thoughts would be appreciated!

About to go offline for the day, if anyone can offer an op. that'd be grand :)

Yeh it's a hard one.

JJ looks the gas

Crouch out now might sway parish trade otherwise I'm down to no emergency in midst.  Davis on field

If you've already got Libba and Papley, then I don't see anything wrong with your trades, I trust Zerrett more than Zaha though if thats any help.

Could do - but feel like I might as well swing the axe on Gresham when I can.

The other part of it is it allows me to move Kerridge to the midfield (Menadue goes to the bench) and Papley takes the field up forward.

But we will see.. I may change my mind on Barlow

easy you pick the all round gun.

Contested possessions and clearances bring safety.  Dont want to rely on Mitchell needing loads of the ball. You typically go for the best player which is gray but im worried about port.

Parker is ranked 25th in the AFL. Mitchell is like 271 (way too low)

Originally had

De goey -libba locked
Gresh-pap

With b crouch out now is it worth offing him instead?

Thanks mate, jagged Papley and started Libba.

Holz, this screams your sort of risky trade, any merit to it mate?

Gray vs Titch for me personally. I can't shake the feeling that Titch is going to be similar to how Libba was, just getting better every year, and he is only what 22 turning 23 soon? Entering his prime

Gut says Titch, but head says Gray  :-\

Went rocky --> libba due to cash gain and also libba will rise in price making it a worthwhile trade. May even become M8 if lucky.
Unsure what to do with barlow. Can go to Gaz or R.Gray via dpp. Want Gaz but thinking to get Gray as i need a loophole for this week. Thoughts??

Help anyone? Cheers

Cheers.
Would it be better to hold barlow or just grab gaz. I thought just grab gaz but anyone think to hold barlow?
