Discuss Nicholls, Go!

[enzedder]

Good plan. Jacobs needs to go. Surprised you held him for this long. Nicholls is good for R2. McBean gives you DPP flexibility for cover if needed, provided NicNat plays the season out...and if he doesn't you still have trades to do something about it. Nice cash grab too.

I'm going down a similar path to people trading out Jacobs etc and playing Nicholls as R2. My plan is to trade out Zorko for Mcbean bringing Cox to the forward line then playing Nicholls as R2 for one round then upgrade him to Minson/Goldy.

Thanks

So currently I have made the trade Jacobs --> McBean

What do you think of buddy as bench cover? I mean I can trade out terlich and swap in staker then bring in a fwd. If I brought in another mid/fwd I would have even better cover for someone like danger... Bartel's an option but I was thinking walker. Roughy's also an option.

Leaves me with 6 trades 407k and this as a team. Obviously upgrade hrovat in a week or two

Def:
God, Gibbs, Hart, Hepp, Hanley, Goodes (Staker, Webster)

Mid:
Pendles, Ablett, Danger, Swan, Priddis, JPK, J Selwood, T Mitchell (Hrovat Kennedy)

Ruck:
Cox Nicholls (mcbean, currie)

Fwd:
Rock, Martin, Nic Nat, JJK, Stevie J, Walker (Buddy, Rowe)

Ben Kennedy can swap for any of rock, martin, stevie, walker
Mcbean, Cox, Nic Nat, Rowe can all interchange

[roo boys!]

Jesus bloody christ that's a great team with that many trades and 400k in the bank mate! Absolutely sensational.

Buddy as F7 is a luxury, with 6 trades I'd almost be inclined to upgrade one of NicNat/Hartlett just for that extra security and then after the Hrovat trade you should be left 4 for finals with sensational coverage on all lines.

Thanks haha nothing ever works out for me so i keep pinching myself that I might actually be considering having buddy as cover. I always knew having this much DPP would help me even after the byes.

So next week out hrovat in probs barlow will cost just under 250k
Then 150k to possibly upgrade hartlett to someone like shaw or upgrade nic nat to say bartel/boomer/nroo if he's still looking hurt
