Okay so I have 12 trades and 490k left over.

Is...
Swan -> pendles
Harris -> selwood (J)

Dumb move or not?
Would leave me with a midfield of...
Pendles, Boyd, Joel, Marc Murphy, Mitchell, bartel

I'd have 10 trades and approx 250k left over. Then I would only have one back upgrade to go (stanley -> deledio/adcock)

Cheers for your views :)

Swan > Pendles wtf, Swan will miss one extra week than Pendles. He will come back and average 120.
Harris > Selwood good trade

elephants

I understand that swan -> pendles sound flowered but if I keep swan I will only be able to have one of pendles/jelwood.

Isn't it a matter of timing, LE?
How do you mean prosp?
If you're implying I should've ditched swannie earlier, I know :(

Earlier would have been a bad move that got lucky... my friend made the move the lucky so and so...

I think if you were to Oust Swan for someone, to take real advantage you probably want to be GAJ

GAJ = plays 2 more games than Swan for season... (Swan's bye and Arizona)

Therefore you get a real bonus for overall with GAJ...

I'd think bringing in Pendles waits 'til after the bye. When you lose Swan is less important.

Okay cheers guys. I am seriously struggling now hahah.
I see the value in bringing in gazza but I don't see the consistent 105+ scores...
Ideally I wanted pendles and jelwood in my final mid but this isn't an option here unless I give swan his marching orders. I highly doubt I will trade him now...

stanley to Adcock will only cost you  50-100k so you have an extra 150 to spend. your weakest link in midfield is bartel... if you're willing to trade in Selwood trade bartel out not swan. you have the money, you have the trades, do it :)

honestly, I wouldn't do it unless you're still up there overall.

3 each on the poll.

I might just stick to my original plan. When to bring in pendles, his b/e is just 70 odd now. Is I worth getting him before his bye for his one game vs Melbourne?

TMurphBROWNLOW

anyone know his history against Melbourne?

elephants

He averages 95.9 vs them over his career.
Last year he got 116 and 136 vs them last year...

Prospector_1

Last year was a break-out - he will keep that up ...
