Ellis & Dunstan - you are the weakest link.

Time for both of these guys to go I think, Ellis' injury has made his culling a certainty but Dunstan looks like he's spluttering to the finish line with little left in the tank. He will hit 320k but his BE is now out of reach one would think, particularly with his monster 143 becoming redundant.

My trade plans will be Dunstan - Robbo, Ellis - Cripps (depending on how the latter performs). I've ruled out Gray now, looks to be vest material and will probably make way for Monfries.

Ellis and LMAC gone for Robbo and Cutler for me giving Dunny another week

Keeper27

Ellis/Rohan in for Lloyd/Robertson.

takes the kitty to $780K, next week SMay to Hibbered& MThomas to Swanny. looks like he's back.

Dunstan needs 90 to hold his value, another 50 and he loses 15k. As for Cutler, I'm still concerned about his JS when Hanley returns, the last thing people need is a donut just prior to the bye. His sub score will ensure that he doesn't skyrocket in price and can always be picked up the following week.

If Cripps fails to fire the I may even bring in Griffen, who has a BE of 184.

dmac07

Ellis /Impey to Robertson/Lloyd. Leaves 300k in the kitty ready to upgrade guys like Langdon/Dunstan.

Why not just bring in Swan at a massive discount? I'm steering clear because it will upset my bye structure but I would predict Swan to have a similar output to Jelwood from this point on.

Thats a great idea bully. Get swan at a discount and leaves me with 100k in the bank to get griffen when he becomes nice and cheap. Cheers for the advice. Who would you recommend for my last two spots. I wanna get pendles for one spot no idea on the other. I got ablett watson cotchin beams

Griffen is a great idea, and I would definitely reserve the last spot for Jelwood but would buy in as soon as he throws in a sub 100 score.

Griffen has an agreeable bye and will have a reachable BE after he goes big today. 

Made a bit of a panicked Daisy -> Crouch about 20 minutes ago so I can upgrade Ellis to Griff and bring in Lloyd for Impey next week.  I imagine many others will be jumping off Impey early too.

I'm holding Dunstan to the byes... most should because it helps avoid a doughnut come the carnage (R10 bye)

brudski

Awesome thanks bully. Ill be down to 20 trades this week (been ravaged by injuries) so i wanna kinda hold off with trades over the byes im only going for league but ill pick griffen up in a couple of weeks when his around 450 and can do a straight swap from either tyson or polec. Now im waiting for pendles and jelwood to do there sub 100s hopefully so i can pick them up

Batt - thomas to crouch is a good move IMO. Isnt it round 8 the bye with the carnage more so then round 10?

enzedder

Ellis and MThomas out of mine...probably for Griffen and Robertson.

RaisyDaisy

I'm in no rush to get rid of Dunstan

He has a great bye, and even if he drops 20k or so then I don't mind. Guys like Impey, Ellis, Langdon, Langford/Georgiou etc need to go before he does

Ellis to Robertson and Impey to Lloyd is locked for me this week, and then Langdon is going the next week for sure

His bye is certainly attractive but I think Robbo covers that issue, as for Impey, I'm holding given he seems to have good JS. I have too many players out in round 8 and cannot afford another.

yeah not sure i can ignore cutler with no other rookie back options come through as far as i can tell
