Next move... suggestions please

[wardie]

Team sits as follows:

DEF: Hodge, GOD, Enright, Waite, Webberly, Heater, Mal (davis, Strijk)
MID: GAJ, Selwood, Swan, Judd, joey, Dids (howlett, JKT)
RUCK: Sandi, Nic Nat (Stanley, Lobbe)
FOR: PAV, ROK, Brennan, Neon, tippett, Goodes, Brown (Gumby, Relton)

Have 6 trades and 70k in bank.

Any suggestions on next move?

Wanted to get CHAPPY for TIPPETT but will involve 2 trades and i am not sure who to downgrade to make extra $$. HOWLETT should play out remaining games with dons and be cover on mids bench as i don't have anyone else.

Same with GUMBY. That leaves DAVIS/WEBBERLY who should also both play out games.

WEBBERLY has low b/e again so will hold so DAVIS is looking like the one?

Want to try and get COX in team at finals time and one more premium back, thinking HURN/GILBERT with $ permitting.

Brave man playing Leon!  ;)

MMP Lobbo and keep Tippet as your perm ruck. Trade NicNat out and use the cash to upgrade Neon & Gumby in forward line.

Your back line is good and you have plenty of cover too.

Oh NEON.... traded him in for HALL in about round 10 i know i know looking back rediclious trade! thought it would work in my favour.

I like your thinking and i was going to do that TIPPET trade but  problem is if i upgrade GUMBY i have no bench cover in forwards... (Lobbe and roberts) on pine right?

want to try keep HOWLETT as decent cover in mids. Would like to keep TIPPETT if i can as i have lasted this long with him in side!

[Blueboys]

Ouch Hall is doing well now too.

Yeah but if needed you can always mpp Tippet with Lobbo.

Think that best thing to do is hold trading this week wait for WEBBERLEY to max out then upgrade him with extra cash i have to a SEMI/PREMIUM player next round or first week of finals.

HURN, GRIMES, GILBERT will hopefully all be within reach if WEBBERLEY continues to score well then i can make the downgrade to find cash to upgrade NIC NAT/DAVIS which would leave me with 3 trades and only forwards that will not be all premiums (if you include DAVIS, BRENNAN, TIPPETT) not as premiums.

Sound ok? or am i missing something? I like your suggestion blueboys about TIPPETT but i think i will end up 1 forward short if i do that or no cover in forwards.

Tippett's form is on the up. Don't worry about one bad game. I'm not!
