Ended up playing a great last half of the quarter when moved into the midfield.

Still finished on 26 prescale so will be cheap in a few weeks with rolling through his BE for a few

Mat0369

I'll grab him in a fortnight when the 26 is out of his rotation. Didn't he ton up the last two? Seems like a really nice potential upgrade option at a discount.

Yeah went 109 and 105

Anyone considering Tuohy nexy week at 360k???

Had an absolute mare of 25 against Sydney despite 60DT and apart from that has gone 85, 99, 101, 91, 51, 88 so 5/6 over 85, showing pretty good consistency. Could be a straight swap or very cheap upgrade from Finlayson/Murray/Doedee

Should be good for a 90+ average and a good D7 at the worst?

I wouldn''t look at anyone outside of Laird, Yeo, Hurley, Sicily & Simpson for an upgrade right now.

Otherwise not much to gain over fielding Finlayson/Doedee/Murray/Cole and therefore likely not worth the trade.

Worth downgrade upgrading banfield Murray to mid rookie and YEO? Feel like yeo will end up being the top 2-3 highest defenders purely because he’s playing in the guts more often. Should be good for a 105 average rest of year. Thoughts?

Great trades.

Just thinking that for a guy who is fairly proven to go 90 at worst from here on in, 360k is a steal. Buying guys like Hurley/Yeo whilst yes great picks are also like 170-200k more expensive. With few rookies coming up that are holding their spots and scoring well it's gonna be fun watching teams over byes with donuts whilst trying to upgrade at the same time.

Yep, these are the key 5 to have

I currently have Laird and Sicily but I am hoping I can do a double upgrade next week and get 2 of the others

Touhy might be value, but so are guys like Zorko, Crouch etc etc

D6 is the absolute last spot I will be thinking about, and by then I will just get whoever looks best

Great trades.

Actually fall 10k short... ok going Finlayson out instead of Murray?

Yeah trading out Finlayson is fine given he is a chance to lose value this week.

So what the hell is the deal with Jimmy Webster?

Never in a million years would I have picked him to go 81, 106, 95, 112, 105 and currently 101 at the start of the 4th

Better option than Shane Savage.

Put him in last week. In under 1000 teams, another 130ish tonight. Great backline POD at the moment
