WHAT TO DO WITH MY SUPERCOACH SIDE

[RICK05]

 What to do with my team have now not made any changes for the last 3 weeks and am getting a little frisky!!!
sitting top 4 in all 4 of my league but still need to win last game to make my position secure in 2 of my leagues

HAVE 5 TRADES LEFT AND ONLY 9,800 AVG 2201
                                                  MY TEAM
GIBBS GODDARD FISHER HEPPELL SHAW LIDS NEWMAN     (BATCHELOR POO JACOBS)

PENDLES JUDD BOYD FYFE SWAN HODGE       (liba hibberd i smith)

COX SMITH  (SANDI  KEEFE)

PAV BUDDY CHAPMAN GOODES OKEEFE N ROO MZUNGA (CALLINAN MCKERNAN LYNCH)


In a little bit of trouble with SHAW and now NEWMAN and still looking at trading JUDD and GIBBS in there by for finals would love to here any ideas for a way to have a real crack at winning my legues

ooh, trades are tight.

i think you should keep Judd and Gibbs for sure but work out some strategy to cover for their rd23 bye obviously.

Shaw and Newman might have to be downgrades for now and then you can use the cash to strike during finals time.

bit risky but I would've said to you, to off-load Shaw for Talia last wk to grab some cash ... have a look at 'bubble boys' for this wk to see if there are any worthy downgrade targets - you want a rook/cheap who is likely to play thru til the end of the SC season (not meaning to be 'Captain Obvious').  ;)

be really careful with your trades!
they are gold in/near finals time, good luck!

i would say u have to stick with the mid/ruck/forward lines as they are,, with newman and shaw that has to be where the next few trades are used.. if u can just sit and wait until finals, do the double trade after round 20.
  the other main problem you have is the lack of quality players on the bench(not that much can be done about that now)
also there is no way you will be able to trade out gibbs and judd, i would doubt you'll have the luxury for them trades..

ok ive got an idea, 3 trades all in the backline...  swap hibberd over with jacobs
then trade out hibberd,newman and shaw ,, one of the ins get either grundy or gilbert(it will give u mpp link with mckernan)
then with the other two ins get the best players you can afford.

As this is a non league round I would just sit or do this trade for cash. As it is getting to the pointy end and you do not all players to play I would look at downgrading Hibberd to Andreoli cost $91,700 maintains your Def/Mid DPP link and gives you an additional $206k to play with for your 4 trades. Or Alterantely if Sandi reurns you could downgrade Smith to the lowest price Ruck.
I would then consider the following trades depending on cash next week.
Shaw > Birchall /Broughton
Newman > Grundy (utiling DPP to Forwards) (assess in 2 weeks to see if Newmans injury is long term or not.

Leaves 2 trades for finals and LTI possibly one more def and one more forward prem.

Upgrade shaw next week to broughton. You need to make a downgrade for cash, so pops to a cheapy.  Then id upgrade libba to ablett and use fyfe in ur fwds. That leaves you 2 trades but a much stronger side.  You might have to go shaw to adcock to cover ablett cost but that still works well.
