Any reason Jarod Berry wasn't dropped?

TBH expected him to be dropped rather than Cox. So do not know if Cox had a niggle or not especially as NEAFL side has a bye.

Alright, so what are we thinking about some of this weeks bubble boys now?

Melican and EVW I'm not sure. All my def rookies (Otten, Marchbank, Hampton, Newman and Stewart) still have money to make and have much better JS so I am actually tempted to pass on both Melican and EVW

That leaves McNiece (Currently playing) as a third defensive option and then Black and possibly Parsons up forward

As long as Black does enough to hold his spot he is a lock for me and I'll be dumping Pickett for him, but it's the 2nd option I'm not too sure about

I guess I could drop Stewart/Newman/Hampton to one of EVW or McNiece, but is it going to be worth it?

Double downgrade not looking as good as initially hoped

[Mat0369]

One up and one down potentially this week. Houston has probably topped out so he is my down to Black/Parsons. I'll then make the call on the upgrade. Otten/Hampton/Marchbank to Hibberd looks tempting

[RaisyDaisy]

Do we have any mid options on the horizon besides Myers?

Hoping Barrett can return because he is clogging a spot at the moment and there's no downgrade options. I've got SPP so he stays now as will continue to make cash

Parfitt, Pickett and Eddy would be the 3 I want to get rid of. Happy to keep Hibberd at M11 as will come in handy later

Pickett to Black is more or less locked, but that doesn't leave me with enough money to upgrade with my second trade so I'd like to double down to build up the bankroll too. Reckon EVW will be given a good crack and should be alright as D8 so might look at possibly downgrading a def rookie pending BE's

McNiece? 60 last week, already on 23, very juicy 102k

Looks very good.

depending on teams Houston down to Black or Parsons and then a slight upgrade of one of my mid defender rookies to Hibberd who looks really juicy. On target for a ton today as well.  Suspect he will be a popular trade in this week.

Also Barrett may be back next week given our belting yesterday with McCluggage looking very ordinary.

black is the only one i like. melican been okay just his JS is not great IMO.

so this week i reckon 1 down/1up

houston>black
otten/hibberd

[GoLions]

Black and Parsons the only 2 downgrades I'll be looking at. Black goes 60+ this week and I'll grab him, and if Parsons is straight back in then he'll come in as well.

If Black spuds and/or Parsons isn't back for the Cats, then upgrade time 8)
