Not sure if this belongs in this thread, but hey.
Really curious to know what you boys would do in my position. I'm struggling to think of ideas :(
(mainly going for league btw, and this is the team at full strength, ie, Swan and Sandi on the pitch)
So here's the team:

Lids, God, Newman, Gibbs, Grundy, Heppell, S Martin.
<Johnson, Jacobs, Toy>

Boyd, Judd, SELWOOD, Bartel, Hodge, Swan.
<Harris, Iles, Irons>

Cox, Sandi.
<Smith, McAuley>

Pavlova, Buddy, Goodes, R Voldt, J Voldt, Higgins, Darling.
<Mzungu, Siposs, Richardson>

9 trades left, 216 200 in the bank.
Not sure whether to keep Selwood at the moment. Actually, not sure about anything at the moment!
All thoughts appreciated.

Honestly, i would get rid of Selwood i am stuck with the same problem and to miss 5 of the last 11 rounds is way to much as well as having a bye in the finals.

I would trade him out for either Pendlebury/Ablett/Priddis/Mitchell or wait a week and pick up S.Thompson as he will drop this week with a BE of 175 (this will also make you around 60K and his bye is in a league bye). And then i would do one of the following trades depending on ur opinion.

After the saints bye you could upgrade Martin (if you want to trade him) to fisher which will still leave you with a lot of cash for future trades

Or.....

You could upgrade Darling to O'keefe/LeCras or Sylvia (after this round BE of 157). If you choose this trade option you should take into account Darling's BE of 89 which, the way he is playing, is not likely to achieve and you will be have to choose a lower priced mid i.e not Ablett and Pendles otherwise you will not be able to afford it.

Btw, Nice Team

This week i would go Selwood to Ablett or Priddis
Next week I would go Harris to Slvia if he has bottomed out to open up MPP link Mid/Fwd and Darling to Didak who will return better scores and on the increase. You do not have any MPP links at the moment something to take into consideration with team structures next year.
Obviusly you will be looking at cashing Smith when sandi returns so that would leave you only 5 trades for finals run something to also consider.
My few cents worth for consideration

Thanks Lecras and Ringo.

I've been bloody well hoping Isaac Smith gets named so I can downgrade Irons or Harris (depending on whether I need the cash) to him. That would open up Mid/Fwd DPP with Mzungu and anyone having a bye that I need some solid back up for. Thanks for the advice mate.

Thanks mate. Was thinking of the Martin ---> Fisher trade after their bye, then when Sylvias 30 odd is out of his 3 round average, go Darling ---> Sylvia.
Cheers boys.
