My R7 team

Hey all, looking at what trades I should do for this week and am having trouble with my last one. Looking at freeing up some cash and so far trading out L.Stevenson for Saunders leaving me with $286,200 and:

Def - Goddard, Birchall, Heppell, Vlaustin, Pittard, Terlich (Saunders, Goodes)

Mid - Cotchin, Pendles, Swan, GAJ, Moloney, Wines, O'Meara, Evans (Fyfe, Crouch)

Ruck - Jacobs, Leuen (Blicavs, Currie)

Fwd - SJ, Rockliff, Martin, Robbo, Macaffer, Mayes (Rowe, Neade)

Looking at upgrading to a mid premo next week and want to cash in on the best available rook this week. One trade left, is it too late for Kerridge?
Thanks :)

Looking pretty good, I like the forward line. But Currie still at R4? He's just had shoulder surgery so won't debut until after the byes, if at all. Wasting a spot and cash, so how about selling him and swapping Rowe into the rucks, then bringing in a forward? You'll have around $390k which is awkward, maybe get Robbie Gray as a unique mid-pricer? Or Knights for $50k more isn't bad but you probably want more price generation from a mid-priced player.

Another option would be to just upgrade Pittard if he's out again this week. You'll be sweating on teams before finialising trades I think! Good luck!

Upgrade either Pittard or Rowe to Hanley or D.Thomas.

You'd definitely want to be upgrading that forward line, Thomas is the obvious choice

Rowe to Thomas seems the best and wait to see who plays outa pittard and Stevenson both might not get a gig this week

Huh? He's got Goodes, Pittard, and Saunders in defence, if the first two don't play he has to start Saunders... pretty dodgy. It's his defence which needs more immediate attention.

What was your first trade?

Well atm I was hoping Pittard would play so I could trade Stevenson for Saunders to free up some cash. Or Laird maybe? Was going for two down grades this week so I can upgrade Moloney next week. Bit skeptical about trading in both Laird and Kerridge tho.
