The Team That FF Built

[tor01doc]

Looking at the teams selected tonight...

May I start the suggestions with

OUT Neade and Dwyer

IN Walker and B Kennedy

This gives us a full 18 on field for all byes  with a little  juggling.

[Crouchy182]

I haven't had time to scratch myself this week, so if your plan gets us a full squad for all of the byes im all for it.

Can you make the changes?

[Ringo]

Can we delay the trade to see if Walker is a late out. Hamstring injury at training earlier in the week so may be in some doubt.
If Walker is out then can I suggest
Neade to Ben Kennedy
Dwyer to N Roo or Bartel.

This makes sense, thanks for the info Ringo

[tor01doc]

I can change it.

Walker if he's selected and then NRoo if not?

I worry about Bartel with Geelong already 'managing' their players. He's due a rest.

[Ringo]

Would have been my suggestion to Doc but thought I would offer more than one. Agree on the resting theory.

[GoldDigger]

hope we had walker, guys. i don't think its jimbob yet - others more in need of a rest - eg. selwood

btw, i like neade to anyone - bkenn looks good, roo & bartel are stars.

[tor01doc]

Yep.

Grabbed Walker and Kennedy for Neade and Dwyer.

Have 18 on field as it stands.

Still have one trade and $123,400 in the kitty.

Match centre has the team winning 4/5.

So far so good.

[GoldDigger]

Looks good - any plans to use the trade, or wait?

[tor01doc]

I think hold as the one match up we're struggling in is prob a bridge too far.

Finals looking a possibility in a few leagues now when it wasn't before so the team is on the up.

[Crouchy182]

Hey guys a good week for the FF team winning 4/5 games.

A weekly score of 1864 gave us a round ranking of 26278 and an overall just under 50k

Now as Tor01doc and myself have already played around with our trades for this week i'll post what the new side looks like and list the trades we have made so you can see how we went.



The trades we made are all money makers with Gawn, Kommer and Evans out for Hrovat, Nicholls and Martin.
These trades give us a full 22 for our 18 to be chosen from. (oh and ignore the big C on Hartlett that was a miss click)

Thoughts and suggestions guys?

[tor01doc]

Another option would be -

OUT Gawn Kommer Evans
IN Griffen Hrovat and Nicholls

Gives the team 22 on field from which to get top 18 scores.

The 5 league games could all be close and a win in each could make finals a possibility again.

Any suggestions are appreciated.

[Ringo]

Like that suggestion Tor - May mean we forgo Martin but get a prem instead. Also getting low on trades.

[tor01doc]

Main reason to trae hard is the team is lying 4th 9th 9th 13th and 13th.

Win a couple now and into the 8 it goes.

The first suggestion leaves too many 'pints' in the kitty.

I think we have to let it all hang out and if we run short of trades then so be it.

No point in having trades and not getting to finals - like leaving a birdie put short!  ::)

I had a play around with this and every option i came up with that would give us similar results was shot down by the bye. It seems like good trades to me.

We are getting towards the end of the season where we need to plan out who our last targetted upgrades are to finish off our lines.

With only 9 trades left we are stuck with the premiums who are underperforming, looking at you Jacobs  >:(

To finish our team we need 1 Fwd, 1 Mid and depending on our feelings towards Goodes and Vlastuin 1-3 Def upgades

Next week feels like we will do the obvious trades or Terlich to Birchall and Omeara to T.Mitchell leaving us around $323K on our last trade for the week

So my question is who do you guys think should fill our last spots? Lets get a trade plan organised for us to works towards.
