Duigan > HIbberd, Duigan gas a high BE and bye next week

Pocket the 170k plus the 33k you have have 200k to upgrade..

I would look at a Mid i.e Mundy/Chappy so you have MPP

Or Fwds upgrade Knights but after a decent score last week could be worth hanging on to make some more $$$

Libba, Conca, Swallow and Harris still have $$$ to make

If you dont like Missys injury have him to Chappy and pocket the 60k and then next week go bye bye Libba and upgrade Harris or Swallow to Pendles

Your in a goos position and should upgrade 4 premiums in the next 4 weeks to make a run, out of interest what are you ranked overall?

Yeah i was thinking of doing duigan down to someone, thought maybe Jacobs if he's playing. Then next week put Hibberd in for Harris, Libba or Swallow Ranked once he has played to.
Then was thinking either Iles or Wallice in the mids to build up the bank, and then start doing some big trades, once everyone max's out.

Ranked just outside the top 3000 at the minute.

Jacobs and Hibberd are great targets as they are MPP!

I would go Hibberd first as he has played games GC Suns have a bye round 9 so one of them are perfect to upgrade...

Im in a similar position to you....I have a feelingpeople are pulling the trigger earlier this year due to the extended bench and the mass amount of cash cows...

I would be looking to get hibberd into your mids, maybe after rd 7 (when he is on the bubble) by downgrading one of your midfield rookies, this will open up mpp between mids and def which could come in handy later in the season. Then I would upgrade Duigan to someone like Johncock or Heath Shaw

yeah that was going to be the plan to down grade one of the goldcoast boys to him.

ATM looking at Libba to Isles as one deffinate if he is in final squad, then should i upgrade Duigan or Higgins? or someone else? or hang on to trades again.

Only did the one trade last week, I have updated my team.
I am currently one short in the backline. Thinking i might downgrade otten to a Jacobs, pops, retzlaff.
This would leave me with approx $280,000 to upgrade someone.

Who should i upgrade?
Toy? Harris? no one?
I have cover for higgins this week so i am not too stressed about him.
