Tom's SC 2017

If you hold Beams this week, would you have enough to go Butler to Yeo?

Yep, didn't even think of that tbh, will have to think about that one, read just before that Beams is likely for Round 9 as well.

SPP/WHE - Myers/Rocky is cutting a very fine line next week though, worked out with projected price rises I would have 12K remaining with those trades next week so would need it to be pretty spot on, also if I did this, I would lose my fwd/mid link and it would leave me with seven round 11 players with that bye in my midfield :-X

Round 5 trades were Swallow/Pickett - Fisher/Balic.

Round 6: 1,866 - Rank: 44,503 lol

O'Meara/Parfitt - Parsons/Pendlebury

Round 7: 2,048 - Rank: 36,517

Starting to upgrade now so should hopefully start moving up, just need my under-performing premos to lift.

DEF: R.Laird, H.Shaw, A.Rance, J.Howe, C.Marchbank, C.Hampton (N.Newman, T.Stewart)
MID: P.Dangerfield, S.Pendlebury, N.Fyfe, A.Treloar, D.Hannebery, D.Beams, S.Petrevski-Seton, S.Powell Pepper (J.Barrett, H.Balic, Z.Fisher)
RUC: A.Sandilands, J.Witts (L.Strnadica)
FOR: L.Dahlhaus, J.Macrae, L.Franklin, T.Nankervis, W.Hoskin-Elliott, D.Butler (J.Parsons, B.Eddy)

$126,900 Remaining, 24 trades left.

Plan this week is to go Hampton/Beams - Berry/Yeo which will leave me with $214,100, this should allow me to upgrade next week without an downgrade. I should have enough for WHE - Rockliff with just the one trade, but if I downgrade to Myers next week as well, I could upgrade Butler instead, I'll just wait and see how the BE's look next week.

After next week, I'll have 20-21 trades left with 5 rookies on field, and Sandi/Witts to upgrade so in a good position I think.

sounds good. wish i was in your position. 5 rookies left 17 trades left :  (    (Injuries suck lol)

Round 8: 2,098 - Rank: 33,994

Ended up going Hampton/Beams - Berry/Yeo like I was planning which worked out well. Slowly, very slowly, moving up the ranks, goal is 20k by the end of the byes :P

DEF: R.Laird, H.Shaw, A.Rance, J.Howe, C.Marchbank, N.Newman (J.Berry, T.Stewart)
MID: P.Dangerfield, S.Pendlebury, N.Fyfe, A.Treloar, D.Hannebery, E.Yeo, S.Petrevski-Seton, S.Powell Pepper (J.Barrett, H.Balic, Z.Fisher)
RUC: A.Sandilands, J.Witts (L.Strnadica)
FOR: L.Dahlhaus, J.Macrae, L.Franklin, T.Nankervis, W.Hoskin-Elliott, D.Butler (J.Parsons, B.Eddy)

$214,100 Remaining, 22 trades left.

Probably time for Butler to go, Yeo will be swung forward for him but have to decide who to trade him to. I have $489,800 when I trade Butler and there really isn't anyone great to pick from that price range, so I have decide whether I just trade Butler to Myers giving me 366k to set me up for a couple upgrades over the next few weeks, or I downgrade someone else to Myers, upgrading Butler to a mid.

This probably all depends on whether Parsons/Balic/Fisher and whether they play or not, particularly with Parsons or Balic needing to cover Witts.

If Parsons is out and Balic is in =

Parsons/Butler - JPK/Myers

If Parsons is in and Fisher is out =

Fisher/Butler - JPK/Myers

If Parsons and Fisher are in =

Lean towards just Butler - Myers

If Parsons and Balic are out =

flowered

Trading Parsons or Fisher may seem like a waste but they look like deadweight, Myers you'd think has better JS which will help through the byes, and it helps me finish off an upgrade this week, and I'm impatient and I want points now :P
