[kilbluff1985]

Doedee to any fwd or def have

Lloyd, Hurn, Simmo, Laird, Hibberd
Heeney, Caddy, D Smith, Gray, Westhoff, Sicily

thinking Yeo

[Bully]

Murphy to Mihocek
Henry to Ahern
Tim Kelly to ???

Have Titch, Oliver, Bont, Danger, Crouch, Dusty, Fyfe already.

Who should I be looking at? Maybe Cripps, Treloar, Josh Kelly???

As a Bomber supporter I would have expected you to spruik Redman.

[North Melbournes Finest]

Tim Kelly > Oliver
Henry > Mihocek / Joel Smith / Redman
Ronke > T McDonald / Chad Wingard?

Team done.

He would be another option instead of Mihocek or watch for another week and downgrade another rookie defender but it wouldn't give me much $. Have 1 more defender and 1 more forward still to bring in too. Has been a tricky season.

i might go Crisp over Yeo for a unique

Macrae has really flowered me

Do I upgrade Holman to a cheap prem for M9, then hold Macrae for 3-4 weeks and field that prem in his place who becomes cover later, or do I trade Macrae to a prem meaning Holman is my M9 for the rest of the year?

I think I need to trade Macrae as it leaves Holman as cover still, where as upgrading Holman means I have no cover as Macrae is on the bench

Flower

I'd look at this as opportunity, Macrae to Treloar frees up 100k, that saves you a rookie downgrade. You could then use that cash to get Holman up to Hoff. Two trades but excellent coverage on two lines. That would also fix up the Boak mistake as the two can be switched.

I need to complete my forward line though, so I don't think I can do something like that

At this stage I'm thinking

Austin to Redman
Macrae to Rocky  :-X
Moore to TMac

I have other options, but this option above gives me the best bench cover moving forward which I think has to trump player selection because I'll have bugger all trades left

At the early stage I'm looking at;-

Tim Kelly, Doedee and Henry 

for


Hurley, Treloar and  Ahern

Murphy > Mihocek/Redman
Austin > TMac
Ronke > Ahern via dpp

[dmac07]

Austin to Redman
Banfield to Ahern
Guelfi to Gray

Leaves 9 trades and 280k, the following week will be Ryan to Danger/Kelly or best mid at 560-570k or less. Wont have great cover but should have a finished team with 8 trades left for injuries or luxury trades like getting Macrae in come supercoach finals. Which seems more than most teams will have.

Def -  Laird, Yeo, Lloyd, Sicily, Ryan, Howe (Redman, Murphy)
Mid - Fyfe, Mitchell, Cripps, Oliver, Crouch, Merrett, Martin, Danger/Kelly (Phillips, Giro, Barry)
Ruck - Gawn, Grundy (Olango)
Fwd - Heeney, Gray, Walters, McLean, Franklin, Boak (Ahern, T.Smith)

You are going to absolutely fly home.  Great team with extra trades that I envy.

I want to trade out macrae and there are 2 options i like. Treloar or Oliver?
Both get a lot of the ball, but treloar has a lot more uncontested ball. Also, is treloar at risk of getting a tag? Leaning towards oliver but he is also most likely to get tagged as he is melbournes main man. Advice please??

[enzedder]

Doedee> Hurley
Holman> Rockliff 
E Phillips or T Smith (if unnamed and $ allow it)> downgrade to Giro or Wilson

Long term the above trades make the most sense but to maximise points this week (as leagues are looking bleak and I need wins to make finals)...I'm now thinking...
Doedee> Hurley
Dusty> Oliver
Austin> Redman
