Redemption 2018

[sammy123]

Good score for the week. I like the trades but dont you wanna see how mihocek goes against melbourne. Only played freo if he scores 60+ against dees hes in for me

[_wato]

Might go early on Ahern and upgrade Guelfi instead of the planned DG. Not sure on Austin??

[_wato]

Completely switched trades, think this might work.

ZGL > Austin
Guelfi > Franklin
Fritsch > R Gray

Laird, Savage, Lloyd, Simpson, Sicily, Doedee (Ridley, Austin)
Titch, Fyfe, Dusty, MCrouch, Bontempelli, Oliver, Coniglio, Beams (Philips, Spargo, Garlett)
Gawn, Grundy (Olango)
Menegola, McLean, Gray, Smith, Franklin, Billings (Keefe, Smith)

22 playing in the first bye week.

Next week Spargo > Ahern net 120k (18 playing)

Laird, Savage, Lloyd, Simpson, Doedee, Austin
Titch, Fyfe, Dusty, MCrouch, Bontempelli, Philips
Menegola, McLean, Gray, Franklin, Sicily, Billings

Week after Doedee > Hurley, Austin > Mihocek, Billings (whichever forward I like or Yeo)

Simpson, Hurley, Yeo, Mihocek, Ridley
Titch, Bontempelli, Oliver, Coniglio, Beams, Ahern
Gawn, Grundy
McLean, Gray, Smith, Smith, Sicily

18 playing minimum in all byes, plus i have Garlett/Keefe who could play to fill in the gaps.

Final team, 5 trades to get home.
Laird, Savage, Lloyd, Simpson, Yeo, Hurley (Ridley, Mihocek)
Titch, Fyfe, Dusty, MCrouch, Bontempelli, Oliver, Coniglio, Beams (Philips, Ahern, Garlett)
Gawn, Grundy (Olango)
Menegola, McLean, Gray, Smith, Franklin, Sicily (Keefe, Smith)

[Bully]

That's a good finishing team, 5 injury trades enough I reckon.

[Ringo]

Nice plan and agree with Bully with that team 5 trades enough.

[_wato]

Horrendous week, topped off by none other than Dayne Beams Captain for the week. Just under 100 points lost on Oliver skipper.

This week at the moment

ZGL > Brodie
Guelfi > Ahern
Doedee > R Gray

$275k in bank

Lloyd, Laird, Simmo, Savage, Austin
Fyfe, Dusty, Crouch, Bont, Titch, Duncan, Brodie, Philips
McLean, Gray, Menegola, Sicily, Westhoff

Just the 18 again this week.

Next week Austin > Hurley.
Only 4 trades left at this point so it is imperative I hold then. Gonna have to hold Fritschy, think he can do a job at F6 for awhile until I can find someone to sideways too.

Currently for Round 14, only have 17 and won't be doing anything silly to find an 18th.

Simpson, Sicily, Hurley
Titch, Oliver, Bont, Beams, Brodie, Spargo
Grundy, Gawn
McLean, Gray, Hoff, Devon, Fritsch, Ahern

Obviously Devon is the big question mark but hoping Tim Smith might get a gig for Pedersen to keep me at 17 regardless.

Team with 4 trades left

Laird, Sicily, Hurley, Simpson, Savage, Lloyd (Ridley, Keefe)
Titchell, Fyfe, Martin, Bontempelli, Duncan, Oliver, Beams, Crouch (Spargo, Brodie, Philips)
Grundy, Gawn (Olango)
Menegola, Gray, Westhoff, McLean, Smith, Fritsch (Ahern, Smith)

4 of the top 6 averaging defenders + Hurley & Savage
6 of the top 20 mid averages + Crouch & Beams
Top 2 rucks by a mile
4 of the top 10 forwards + Devon & Fritsch

Not all doom and gloom. Will work out other prospective trades throughout the week and post here.

[sammy123]

Only big name fwd your are missing is heeney. But pricey atm if buddy had a stinker you could nearly straight swap fritsch to buddy

[_wato]

Worth saving a trade and going Hurn + Wingard over Hurley + Gray?

Means I can at some point hopefully grab Heeney and create a mid/fwd swing.

Laird, Sicily, Hurn, Simpson, Savage, Lloyd (Ridley, Keefe)
Titchell, Fyfe, Martin, Bontempelli, Duncan, Oliver, Beams, Crouch (Wingard, Brodie, Philips)
Grundy, Gawn (Olango)
Menegola, Westhoff, McLean, Smith, Fritsch, Heeney (Spargo, Smith)

Grundy, Gawn (Olango)
Menegola, Westhoff, McLean, Smith, Fritsch, Heeney (Spargo, Smith)

Heeney is a must, don't mind Wingard at M9.

[_wato]

Going Austin > Ahern, Doedee > McDonald / Yeo.
Final team with 4 trades remaining.

Nice side wato, amount of trades and Fritsch at F6 the only concerns. Fritsch --> Heeney at some stage would be ideal if you could make it work.

[RaisyDaisy]

I know you've had a tough year like many of us, so all things considered you've done well to get it to this point

The def and fwd benches though, they are massive concerns  :-\

These too :-\

[PowerBug]

Yep, nice two trades and now you hold the final 4 trades for injuries.

[Ringo]

Nice trade but hold now due to weaknesses of benches for injury trades.
