Advice needed from the great minds of fanfooty

[sidvicious]

So I  have Lecras but I don't want to trade him .
My current forwards are Zorko Rockliff Cloke Varcoe Karnezis Lecras with J stringer and Macaffer on the bench. I have Cox and Roughead in the ruck with gorrange and blicavs .

Do I trade roughead to berger and upgrade stinger to dusty before the full lockout so I dont use a trade and strengthen my forward line to cover for Lecras on the bench. Which means Blivcavs or Gorrange will have to be R2 until berger plays 

Or stick with what I've got and rely on macaffer and stringer for F6 and bench cover

I'd just sit on what you have for now. Woosha seemed optimistic about Lecca so he may only be out for a week or two. We will know more as the week progresses, would be kind of reactive to trade on a Sunday.

I would not have Stringer unless he happens to get named rd1 - IMO unlikely

He will get games at some stage but the dogs wont rush him.

Unless Lecras is the terminator and can heal fast he will mis 5-6 weeks.

Trade him out.

Trade him out.

Don't think he will miss that much footy..

Fractured his arm going to have surgery most likely tomorrow to put a plate in it. If he only misses 1 week I will eat my hat.

He may not be back in 1 but I seriously doubt it is going to take him 5+ weeks to get back on the park..

I think it'll be list least 4, probably 5, my friend broke his forearm and it took him 5 weeks for it to heal, plus a couple weeks to regain strength.  I understand it's Afl so they will do everything right but if it's under a month I'll be surprised.

He has 2 weeks before the eagles play again so just use him as a non player with the captains loophole for a couple of weeks.

[Marstar]

3-4 weeks in plaster and 1-2 weeks of rehab. 4 weeks best case scenario.

Effective bye next week = back Round 4 at the earliest.

Round 4 they play the Sunday game so a full 28 days to be ready. Will be tight. I wouldn't bet on it though.

I'de sell him. He isn't likely to give you a price rise till a couple weeks before his bye.

Thanks for the replies have added a poll

Not sure if I quailfy as a great mind of fanfooty but I would be going Lecras to JJK. That will give you 60k in the kitty. Then theres no need to rush on Leuey. Watch how he goes in the first few weeks then get him on the bubble by swinging Roughie into your fowards then go Varcoe to Leuey.

[Footyrulz]

think lecras will be gone for a while. if so, trade him.

dont think stringer will play either. plus hes way to expensive for the bench.

dont think leuy will play though so id get neade or lee instead.

my advise is stringer to lee/neade, keep roughy and upgrade lecras (to martin if u can afford)

With 30 trades this year your allowed to burn a few trades early... ditch him and re look at trading him in when he is back. you stand to make 100K+ from whoever you trade him to then use that cash elsewhere... he was an injury risk so although a broken arm wasnt something you cant predict you still cant be too surprised... thats the risk taken when his price was so juicy!

[Ziplock]

stringers injured isnt he...?
