Article on Dogs site confirming that he is a chance to play this week and they'll make the call later in the week

Worst case he misses 1 week you'd think, so that's a trade saved thankfully

Unlikely they would fly him all the way up to Cairns for this week, expecting him back next week ready to go!

If I was a footy player I'd be doing all I could to go to Cairns for a week :P

He has to be traded regardless IMO. Gonna lose a bit of cash.

Cash is irrelevant if hes a keeper

Think I may hold him as my m8, especially if he plays or it is 1 week.
With GAJ gone( getting Hanners) and by downgrading Menadue this week I can probably get Docherty in next week to complete my defence and team... gets Collins off the ground. Would leave me with 2 trades left for the last 5 rounds.
Libba to Ward would be a luxury trade at this stage with my defence not finished, so few trades left and Libba missing perhaps only 1 game.
Sound like a reasonable plan?

I'm sorry but a guy averaging less than 100 in your mid is not a keeper.

It you CAN I'd move him on now.

He is a keeper when you don't have enough trades to get rid of him ;)

Of course everyone would want to upgrade him if they could

Don't think I can. Menadue could lose cash if I keep him. Collins isn't good enough as D6 with scores around 50, GAJ has to go. I've got no ruck cover and with 5 rounds to go after I bring Docherty in next week I feel even 2 trades won't be enough.

Hence why I said CAN. Everyone's teams will be different.

I personally can so I will. Gaz to hanners will allow me to do Libba to Ward. Leaves me with 6 and I'm still carrying Wells and Dahl.

Libba and Wines will stay as my M8/9

Been really surprised at how poor Wines has been this year. Didn't expect him to do as well as some were predicting (110+), but thought he'd go at around 105ish. Averaging under 95 with only the one score over 110.

I'm upgrading Libba because i see ward/gray as a min 10 point upgrade for not much cash. But I've also got enough trades to do the move.
Bulldogs last few games is pretty tasty so holding wouldnt be a bad option
