Hey mate.
Team looks good.
However the reasoning for picking Newman?

Good luck!

Either upgrade or downgrade newman

[kilbluff1985]

i don't mind the Newman pick

i know a few ppl think he can go 90+ at Carlton, he has been in and out of my team

ask yourself this

would you rather B Crouch/parker on field or Butters/Boak

[Blues Blues Blues]

Thanks guys for feedback. With Newman I know he had a stinker vs the Pies, but my contact at the club says he should get a lot of game time with Docherty out. Maybe even take his role somewhat.

But he has also been in and out of my team...

So you’re suggestIng to downgrade B Crouch to Butters and bring an extra promo (Boak) into forwards?

[kilbluff1985]

yeah

[Blues Blues Blues]

Revised team.

Def: Lloyd, Williams, Smith, Collins, Clark, Duursma (Burgess, Hore)
Mid: Macrae, Cripps, Oliver, Fyfe, Dusty, Libba, Walsh, Butters (Constable, Atkins, Gibbons)
Ruc: Grundy, Gawn (Sweet)
Fwd: Danger, Heeney, Greene, Moore, Setterfield, Drew (Petruccelle, Parker)

Cash remaining $2800.

[Blues Blues Blues]

Really struggling with what to do. Have Dusty, Fyfe and Greene not playing.

I only have $26.2k to spend.

I want to turn Dusty into a premo mid but can’t really afford any.

Thinking Dusty to Sheed, Greene to Worpel. Leaves $30k.

Team would then be:
Lloyd, Williams, Smith, Collins, Clark, Duursma (Hore, Burgess)
Macrae, Cripps, Oliver, Fyfe, SHEED, Libba, Walsh, Constable (Butters, Atkins, Gibbons)
Grundy, Gawn (Sweet)
Danger, Kelly, WORPELL, Moore, Setterfield, Petrucelle (Parker, Drew)

Thoughts?

[Blues Blues Blues]

Can’t decide what to do - either a downgrade/upgrade or double downgrade.

DEF: Lloyd, Laird, Williams, Smith, Hore, Naish (Rotham, Joyce)
MID: Kelly, Fyfe, Macrae, Cripps, Neale, Oliver, Sheed, D Clarke (Butters, Setterfield, Stocker)
RUC: Gawn, Grundy (Sweet)
FWD: Dunkley, Danger, Boak, Kelly, Daniel, Dahlhaus (Burgess, Young)

14 trades and $10k.

Looking at Logue, Hind and Sloane.

Either:
1. Smith to Logue, Butters to Sloane ($70k left)
2. Smith to Logue, Butters to Hind ($463k left)

Sloane has a BE of 75 so will go up $15k if he scores 110, although they are playing Geelong at Kardinia Park.

Might be worth copping a price up and grabbing him next week at expense of missing Hind or Logue?

[Blues Blues Blues]

Help please! Still have 10 trades and $108k but work to do to finish.

Def: Whitfield, Williams, Lloyd, Laird, Smith, LOGUE (Naish, Rotham)
Mid: Macrae, KELLY, Fyfe, Cripps, Oliver, Neale, Sloane, Sheed (Setterfield, Clarke, Stocker)
Ruc: Grundy, Gawn (Sweet)
Fwd: Danger, Dunkley, Boak, Kelly, Dahlhaus, Jarrod Cameron (Young, Burgess)

Thinking 2 trains of thought:

1. Double upgrade: Logue to Sicily, Kelly to Heeney (leaves $62k and 8 trades). Eventually swing Heeney forward.
2. Upgrade/downgrade: Logue to Sicily, Kelly to Hanrahan via DPP (leaves $432k).

Option 1 means I am only 1 mid short once Heeney in forward line. Option 2 still needs 1 forward and 1 mid but I have a heap of cash.

Thoughts very much appreciated.

[tommy10]

Option 1 out of the two, but maybe try Logue to Sic, Kelly to Cunnington/Zerrett/MCrouch. Next week get rid of Setters for Heeney and downgrade Stocker, if you can afford it.

[Blues Blues Blues]

Hi all,

After some week 1 finals advice please!

4 trades and $222k remaining.

Def: Lloyd, Williams, Whitfield, Laird, Smith, Sicily (Naish, Watson)
Mid: Macrae, Fyfe, Neale, Oliver, Cripps, Sheed, Sloane, Zerrett (Hill, Langlands, Stocker)
Ruc: Grundy, Gawn (Sweet)
Fwd: Dunkley, Danger, Boak, Heeney, Kelly, DAHLHAUS (Burgess, Young)

Finished 3rd, so want to win for week off.

Different players are as follows. My team is left.

Sicily v Tom stewart
Zerrett v Dusty
Sloane v B Crouch
Sheed v Taranto
Macrae v Bont
Dahl v Walters

It’s pretty close but Dahl needs to go. I’d love to bring in Marshall but would need 2 trades. Alternative is I grab any other forward (Daniel, Walters?) and use only 1 trade.Obviously Dahlhaus is my main weakness and I want to fix. .

Suggestions?!
