FF Fantasy A-League (Classic League)

Fair enough, but I'd still want Finkler!!! Milligan seems too good to pass up, he kills it when he actually plays. Rojas doesn't need explaining... So maybe Archie could be swapped out as there are many great options up forward. BROCKIE is on fire and isn't in international contention of course. Not saying Brockie is better than Arch, but he is well and truly matching his scoring atm, and this allows you to have Finkler...

I was thinking this. I just cannot decide.

I look to Archie because every time he plays, he pairs up with Rojas so well; so every time someone scores, its one of them. But Finkler is always next in line, and would be a wonderful person to pick up at such a cheap price!
Although doing Fenton to Finkler implies i should start Finkler instead of one of my defenders. Do I want that? So instead of playing 4-3-3 i would be playing 3-4-3.
Arguments against Archie is that he does get called up and gets injured kinda often..

[Popey99]

And he ain't gettin no younger... Look, it's up to you... Either way you will have a gun team.

[Luigi197]

There are better options than Archie around his price.
Finkler is one of very few that is a better option that Fenton.

Finkler and Brockie it is for now; although Brockie could turn into someone else by the end of the week.

Thanks for your help guys!

Dam bojic a must now. Was actually going to bring him in my squad  for this week but decided to wait. Went broich to murdoca and Gerhardt to bojic. Murdoch doing just as well as broich anyway

[Luigi197]

Carrusca on my bench  :o

[Popey99]

Polenz on mine but Brockie was a late out so he come on! I'm getting Carracusa for Broich I reckon. Broich hasn't done shower lately.

[shaker]

There are a lot of defenders pushing the yellow cards at the moment be aware.

[Popey99]

Anyone reckon that trading Broich to Carrusca is to risky?

My planned trades over next 3 weeks:
Broich->Carrusca
Golec->Milligan
Polenz->Ono (who seems to have finally fired up in the last 2 weeks with scores of 8 and 9, I will watch him and see if he is worth jumping on!)

Players I still want in my team:
Bojic (Is it worth trading out one of Sainsbury/Rose for him??!! I really want him in there but also want both the other 2)
McGlinchey
Rogic

Funny that, they're all from CCM...

[Popey99]

Guys just a reminder that lockout is Wednesday (Boxing Day) this game-week. Then the game-week after its New Years Eve.

I have decided that getting in Milligan is an absolute must. So the trades above stand. I just can't decide who to bench from there. It's between Heffernan, Carrusca and Finkler. Thoughts?

[colmullet]

well im a knob, decided to make my trades a little early because of not knowing whether i would have time over Xmas and brought in Milligan.....to see him ruled out for 2 weeks *facepalm*

[Popey99]

Oh showere, did same same thing!!! Oh well! I have plenty of bench cover so it just brings Finkler back on the field!!

[Chelskiman]

I'm going ok at the moment (7th in the classic league and 2nd in H2H), but I'm not happy with my defence.  I have Sainsbury and Heffernan who are ok, but after that it's Gerhardt, Hingert and D'Apuzzo.  I really need one of Rose or Bojic but I already have Sainsbury, Rogic and McBreen in my team so I can't fit either in.  I could get rid of Sainsbury, but it would still leave me with Hingert, Gerhardt and D'Apuzzo to choose from and the point of me getting a defender in is to get rid of one of them.  So, my question is, which defender (other than CCM defenders) would be the best to bring in?  Keep in mind I've already used my one trade this week (Broich > Carrusca) but when I make my trade next week money won't be an issue.  Here's my team in full to get a better idea.

$312k in the bank.

[Popey99]

Yeah mate, I'd suck it up and take on Milligan when he gets back. Would get rid of Hingert. Although, I'd still get one of Topor Stanley/ Beauchamp for D'Apuzzo. That would sort it out in 2 weeks, as you'd do the latter trade first and the former second, Milligan should be back by then.

I actually want you to fail completely Chelsk, you're my main challenger in the H2H league, but I'll help you out here!

[colmullet]

Have a serious man crush on Rojas....been a very lucrative captain for me when i've gone with him....moving my way up the ladder nicely from way down near 20th at one stage to nearly top 5 now i think
