I currently sit in 3rd place in my league due to a bad %. I have most bases covered with some uniques that could win it for me come finals, but i'm unsure where i should go to next:

Backs: Gibbs , Deledio , Goddard , Heppell , Adcock , Stanley , Hibberd << Lower , L.Thompson , Hargrave >>
Mids: Pendlebury , Ablett , Swan , Boyd , Priddis , Buckley << Selwood , Jacobs , Pavlich >>
Rucks: Cox , Petrie << J.Tippett , McCauley >>
Fors: Goodes , Franklin , J.Riewoldt , Higgins , Prestia , Lobbe , Winmar << Green , Tapscott , Mzungu >>

Next week Pav will be back in forwards, i gain him, Green, Selwood, Hargrave, Lower, Mzungu, and Tapscott after 6 weeks of sitting on my banch. Petrie is playing 2nd ruck, with Lobbe as only replacement. I have 7 trades left and $115800 in the bank.

Oh yeah, i don't like Travis Cloke so if i can avoid him then i will.

If you're going for League, a trade like Prestia -> O'Keefe could well be your go. You need some consistent scores in your forward line with inconsistent players like Riewoldt, Higgins, Green, and Mzungu/Tapscott. To be honest I'm surprised you've held Tapscott this whole time but if he gets named for this week you may as well keep him.

Another trade I'd do if I was you would be Lower to Burchall, you could wait a week on that though because Burchall should be coming down in price a bit after two sub-90 scores.

Yeah i'm going league. Ablett will have to go this week, probably S.Thompson, that allows for Prestia >> O'Keefe and a back upgrade, i won't go Birchall as he is playing stopping roles, i'm thinking Shaw.
