Hey all, going for league win.

Will have 6 trades left at the end of this round and $63K in the bank. Bringing in Pendles and Sylvia this week.

Will leave a team of

DEF - Lids, Gibbs, Goddard, Broughton, Shaw, Enright, Heppell (Lower, Duigan, Puopolo)

MID - Pendles, Swan, Priddis, Boyd, Boak, Pav, (Iles, Jacobs, Mzungu)

RUCK - Sandi, Smith (Bailey, J. Tippet)

FWD - Buddy, Fyfe, Harvey, Sylvia, Goodes, Petrie, Didak (Krak, Lynch, Sipposs)

My plan is 4 trades left heading into finals and with only trades left I won't be looking at changing anything else until late rounds in case I cop more injuries. Possibly Didak will come good and I am okay with Smtih as second ruck for now but would like to get a prem ruck in near finals and prob need a better D7 then Heppell who looks to be running out of steam. Good plan stop trading after this week or will I run out of downgrade options if I need cash? I am kind of hoping Heppel picks up a bit of form before Adcock gets back in and I can get him for a straight swap then use my $63 to upgrade Smith for finals.

Would be great to get some feeback on this plan

cheers guys

If well placed in Leagues I would just sit for a few weeks as 6 trades for 11 rounds ( 4 finals) is getting low especially with trades possibly required for North Carlton Geelong and Essendon matches in finals. Team is sound and should be sufficient to get to finals. By sitting you have the option to observe Didak to see whether he has turned form around and wait for Smith to reach his max and trade when he reaches it to save as much cash as possible.

4th in league on percentage. It's a pretty decent league and even too. So down to about 12th still well and truly able to make finals. But I think I agree, I may have to just back my team because otherwise I might make finals but just run out of trades and get bundles out. I think a lot of people have either Roo or Didak who are both struggling so it's not so bad, Smith solid for now, Heppell worries me but I might just pick based on who they are playing each week. Put Lower or Puo in some weeks. Had my backs done so early too and was happy until Heppell's last 3 weeks.
