$518k to spend. Need to upgrade. Who?

[geoffmack]

Kitty: $518,200, Trades: 25

A shocker R6, enuf said. R7 ideas. FWD line needs work.

Thoughts are dumping Franklin to Parker/Pav. Or upgrade Impey/Rohan.

Thoughts guys?

[Ringo]

I would do these trades but up to you.

Buddy to Parker and Rohan or Impey to Robbie Gray still have around 80k left in bank as well.

[Southstorm]

Maybe trade up Impey to Gray and look to grab a premium midfielder for Dunstan? Just another idea.

I like them both. I need to workout what's better in the long term.

Impey peaked.
Buddy set to decrease be 100
Dunstan set to decrease less than buddy be 80

Is it wise to trade this week with a eye to next weeks R8 bye? Next week I was looking at trading Langdon n McDonald bring in a premo def R9-R10 bye.

[Ringo]

Struggling with the same dilema geoff.  trying to work out whether to do the Langdon/Macdonald to prem now or wait till bye next week and do other this week.

Whats your side look like Rringo??

Keep buddy, he's already bled $85K.
nowhere but up from now on once he and Sydney finds form.

personally i'd upgrade Dunstan to Jobe will leave you with  $296K
you have too many rookies, i know a few still have a bit of money to make (Polec, Aish, Crouch).

then LMac to any Premo DEF as he doesnt have much more cash to make.
gotta start bringing in Premo's now.

OK Keeper so IF i keep buddy, i think a FWD trade of the likes of Impey/Rohan to a premo is a must. And dunstan to a premo could work. Would leave me with diddly squat kitty for R8. But 3 trades next week could be:
McDonald/Langdon/Dericx - Hanley/cheap def rook/R4 loop.

Thoughts

[geoffmack]

Which would leave approx 115-120k in kitty after R8.

another FWD premo can wait.
you have too many rookies in the mids. MIDS make the most points so focus on that first.
Polec, Aish, Crouch can go in a few rounds. But Dunstan/Taylor can go.

I'd go, Dunstan/LMac + $518K to a Watson/Swallow.
should leave you $100K, gets rid of 2 rookies and gains 2 premos.

Ok so if I follow that idea I play Lloyd n JKH on field impey n Rohan on fwd bench. Hoping Lloyd plays of course.

Next week do what?  Trade R8 bye players: Langdon, Lloyd? And mid Taylor? For who? No downgrade targets coming through except for O'Rourke.

Instead of jobe this week what about Parker/Gray then shift fwd when I trade out Lloyd/Impey? Jobe still has high be still.

Morabito is a mid rookie option.
Dunno about a DEF rookie option.

Sure you can do Parker if you want.
It's just not what I'd personally do but it's not my team.

You've got so many rookies in the mids/fwd line.

You need to start upgrading or you'll be left with rookies on field and no trades.

In a few rounds you can go Aish/Polec/Crouch to 1 mid rookie & 2 Premos.

You can go langdon/langford/Dempster to a premium def & 2 rookie defs.

Fwd line got me stuck coz they all haven't made enough money to do anything with.

You get the idea. Use tooserious or SCGold to get a rough idea of BEs and price changes and make a plan from then.

That's what I did.
Just a rough plan leaving an extra $50k for any minor deviations in prices.

But like I said. You have to start trading out your rookies for premiums.
