Advice with team

[higgogun!]

Im ranked 4,000 overall at the moment.

My team at full strength at the moment is:

Back: Deledio, Goddard, Suckling, Broughton, Clarke, Lake, Sam Shaw with Ellis and Smedts on bench
Middle: Ablett, Watson, Selwood, Boyd, Priddis, Mitchell with Pffiefer and Gibson on bench
Rucks: Giles and Redden with Jenkins and Stephenson on bench
Forward: Franklin, Sidebottom, Dangerfield, Cloke, Martin, Porpleiza, Treloar with Milera and Hall on the bench.

I have ten trades left and the trades im looking at for this week are milera for michael johnson this week as a dpp and redden for ryder this week. I want to leave my team fairly unique to catch up overall. The trades im looking at in the future are ellis to carazzo and porpleiza to a good forward like chapman or  zaharakis with a few downgrades. What do you guys think?

Def/Fwd DPP is fairly useless in my personal opinion - people might contest that.

I think if you can afford it, look to bring in Beams, SJ, Chapman instead of Johnson.
And Redden to Ryder is a ripper move. Had Ryder from the start knowing that he had potential to be in the top 3 rucks.

Ellis to Carrazzo is probably a given in a couple weeks too, Carrazzo a proven performer and the week off will do a world of good.

Plus there are good rookies on the radar - Morabito, Couch, Docherty (starred in the reserves apparently).

Thanks alot! yeah come to think of it its fairly useless as a dpp back/forward! but still i think johnson is a very consistent performer this year with only one score lower then 90. at this stage i only have enough money to get johnson for milera at this stage but in a few weeks once i do another downgrade of treloar, chappy will most likely to come in.

What do you think of the rest of my team?

Def/fwd actually works well because it enables you to have an m7 with m/f to cover an injury to a mid/fwd or def tather than just a mid o fwd.  i have it with johnno and smedts and it works a treat.
Ur trades are sound but get a wriggle on as most teams have or will fully prem up this week!  It doesnt help bye structure but treloar is set to plummet in next two weeks cash wise, if you can, consider a trade this week.

Yes I will go with m Johnson and Ryder and have already got Gibson this week so that's my three trades. Next week I will,look to downgrade treloar and possibly give up 30 k and then the week after get carazzo. That would leave me with 6 trades and limited cash to do one more downgrade and an upgrade of porpleiza to I'm thinking chapman
