A wise guy's always right even when he's wrong, he's right...

[Donnie Brasco]

You've got me thinking Ringo, how about...

Kommer > Thurlow
Goodes > Watson

[Ringo]

Dependent on what your final mids to look like Bringing in Watson now will give you Ablett, Pendles, Danger and Watto with Round 13 bye.  If you think that is fine then go for it but if you think Jelwood may be in your best 8 then I would do Goodes to Selwood.

There are a number of threads on Watto now and the byes for you to digest

2415, very happy this week. 12,075 overall, 17 trades and $227,700.


Goddard Duffield Gibbs Hartlett Terlich Vlastuin (Docherty Thurlow)

Ablett Pendlebury Kennedy Dangerfield Cotchin Priddis O'Meara Goodes (Lonergan Crouch)

Maric Cox (Daw Gawn)

Franklin Rockliff S.Johnson J.Kennedy Gray Kerridge (Rowe Lee)


I guess Terlich has to go?

[Ringo]

I see you have 2 Goodes so obviously you have a different defender or midfielder please advise which as it may make decisions a little easier.
One option though is Terlich to Gibbs back in form after injury, Possibly at lowest price as well.  Will probably average 30 points per game more than Terlich as well.

[Donnie Brasco]

Ha ha, fixed. Sorry mate!

:-[

[Ringo]

As a suggestion you could go Terlich to Hutchings returning Goodes to defence.
Then Rowe to Natanui.

[Donnie Brasco]

Cheers Ringo, you wouldn't use Gawn instead to keep DPP?

Also, no Staker consideration?

[Ringo]

Staker should be considered but would depend on Team Balance

You could go Terlich to Staker.

With regards DPP Nat will give you that as well as he also has DPP so a nice position to be in and you get rid of a non scoring player.  You can use Gawn though if you wish.

[Donnie Brasco]

Thanks again Ringo, I like the look of Hrovat too.

Pretty happy at the moment, went:

Lonergan > Mitchell

Maric Cox (Nicholls Daw)

Franklin Rockliff S.Johnson J.Kennedy Gray Natanui (Kerridge Staker)

[Ringo]

I would look at Daw to Grimley Daw has a high B/e and Grimley will rise in value if named. Highly unlikely you will need this position anyway could even go McBean if desired.
If one of Docherty or Thurlow not named then I would trade to Birchill.  If Birchill is to be in you final team then would do this regardless as Birchill will never be cheaper.

Kerridge to Daniher after Byes,

To finalise team and for added flexibility when upgrading Martin or Hrovat I would upgrade via Gray to the final prem forward of you choosing, Would allow you to sit Gray at M9 with DPP allowing flexibility.
Other Upgrade to a Defender via Goodes or Vlastuin possibly also downgrading Thurlow to Oxley for DPP as well.
Leaves you with this team and 4 trades going into finals.

Goddard, Duffield, Gibbs, Hartlett, Birchill, Prem (Goodes, Oxley)
Ablett, Pendleberry, Kennedy, Watson, Dangerfield, Cotchin, Priddis, Mitchell (Vlastuin, Gray)
Maric, Cox (Nicholls, Grimley/McBean)
Franklin, Rockliff, Johnson, Kennedy, Natanui, Prem (Staker, Daniher)

Your team though
