Thinking...

Caddy > Fasolo
Leuenberger > Cox

Only leaves with a lousy $1000 though. Or should I downgrade to a Hampson, West, McIntosh, Simpson, etc. to make a little cash?

I'd love your thoughts guys!

[tor01doc]

This team seems to have very few problems - a rarity indeed.

Don't worry about the cash stash - your rookies are all making for you.

Lloyd is a great target if he performs this week.

Cox or maybe Jacobs - I personally couldn't do Jacobs again though. Also his round 8 bye is a worry if you add both Fasolo and Lloyd over the next two weeks.

What are you ranked?

[Donnie Brasco]

Cheers Doc, not ranked great mate, only early 20s at this stage.

[Ringo]

Nice Team with not a real lot wrong.

Wait for teams to be announced but I would do Berger to Hampson - Has a low B/e and will make cash for you till Maric comes back.
I would then go Thurlow to Currie for extra ruck coverage.  Currie will also make cash for you.

Next Week Rohan to Lloyd and Caddy to a prem forward that you can afford

Leaves you with 24 trades to watch cows mooooooo and then upgrade.

[Donnie Brasco]

Thanks Ringo, makes sense, I've been worried about the rucks/ backup.

I have a sneaking suspicion your boys will knock us off this week, up there on your home turf.

[Donnie Brasco]

Bit worried mate, the 'Berger to Hampson and Thurlow to Currie trade' only leaves me with $57,000.

Won't both, Rohan and Caddy, lose money this week?

[Ringo]

That is the risk you have to decide get rid of 2 falling players or strengthen rucks. Not easy but go with gut as to what is best long term for team.  Remember the saying short term pain for long term gain.

[Donnie Brasco]

Ah, you're a wise man Ringo (hence the title of Veteran Coach ha ha.)

[Donnie Brasco]

2177, ok. Played Aish instead of Crouch, probably should have grabbed Fasolo. Oh well, that's footy!

leave ellis, they said he might play.
and Tyson should be ok.
Caddy/Rohan/ is a main issue.

how bout, Caddy to Lloyd and Tyson/Aish to Gray/Roberston.
you'll have a lot of money for upgrades.

check out my team

[Donnie Brasco]

Cheers Keeper.

I'll have a look mate, but there's not a lot I a training scout can say to a coach.

[Keeper27]

Any advice is welcome mate

[Donnie Brasco]

How about...

Caddy > Lloyd
Ellis > Swan

[Keeper27]

Swan will only go up about $10k so if you need the money for future upgrades upgrading to swanny can wait

[Donnie Brasco]

I just figure why not get him now, I don't really care about the byes...
