i know 2 trades not good 2 trades and 3 upgrades hmmm.  :-\ its just on where to upgrade who is better i think maybe backs because i think mcdonald, magner and morabito is less risky because morabito is returning soon.

[glam77]

my team:

lids, hurn, waters, suckling, nicholson, shaw, darley (god, spurr)

watson, mitchell, boyd, judd, priddis, zorko (pendles, gibson)

cox, giles (redden, O)

franklin, sidebottom, danger, beams, pav, robo, johno (porps, crozier)

5trades, 91.8k

my question....
do you think it is of greater concern to upgrade my backs or my ruck?

i would like to be able to go get ruff'ead in the ruck and another premium back.
any suggestion on a suitable route.?

i v'e confused myself.

you need a back ASAP. carrots is a great option and yarran is a good option.....giles can hold down R2 for a couple more weeks, but your priority must be backs at the moment, i mean nicholson/shaw/darley shouldnt be starting, well maybe nicholson can be a D7...wouldnt want yarran & nicholson starting tho so get carrazo :) redden > campbell can free up some cash if needed

so you're telling me that after 2-3 days of deliberations that i go back to the plan of attack that i thought of first up thing monday morning?  ;D

s.shaw isnt too bad for a D7....if you dont get another prem. mid then you'll be losing major points each week as most teams (pretty much all) have 6 premium mids

Malceski! What to do with him with two trades left? Don't need to fix anything else in my team

$$$ in bank?

[felsty]

$127k in the bank but wanting to do Giles > Jacobs this week also so $40-60k? Looked at Yarran and Hibberd

[sidvicious]

Hi jayman traded Giles (sub rowe) to McIntyre then spurr to carrazzo which left my team requiring one more ruck then Im finished Copped a lot of injury's so I only have 3 trades left .
Team is

DEF: B. Goddard, B. Deledio, H. Shaw, A. Carrazzo, G. Broughton, B. Waters, B. Lake (M. Clarke, S. Shaw)
MID: S. Pendlebury, G. Ablett jnr, D. Swan, M. Boyd, J. Selwood, S. Thompson (S. Gibson, T. McIntyre)
RUC: J. Roughead, J. Jenkins (S. Rowe, T. Campbell)
FWD: L. Franklin, D. Beams, D. Martin, S. Sidebottom, P. Dangerfield, C. Pearce, D. Smith (A. Treloar, D. Zorko)

If I trade clarke to carrazzo instead then I would have an extra 180k for my ruck upgrade
So should I trade clarke or spurr

well clarke isnt playing, neither is spurr for that matter but clarke is more expensive and when he does play, will drop a shower load instead!so trade clarke

Thoughts on Chris Newman asd7 and Yarran as d8 vs Carrazzo as d7 and S.Shaw d8 plus one trade.
Also will Lee Spurr play again? And will 4 trades be enough for the rest of the year? Thanks Jayman

[david_89]

Who to start? Smedts or Shaw?

newman is an excellent D7...not as good as carrots tho! Yaz is obviously better than shaw but seeing as it is for a non-starting position id have to go with carrots & shaw + a trade! I think spurr will play again

[Jay]

i normally go with last 3 round average in these kinfd of situations...so smedts if named

Hey jay,

My question is here
http://www.fanfooty.com.au/forum/index.php/topic,64193.0/viewResults.html
I'm really tempted to go both trades but then I'll have one trade left :-/ do you think carrots will maintain his form?
Cheers
