Help save brad's team

[Bill Manspeaker]

nah mate happy with Jack. dream run home, can score big.

as you said, can't really trust Stevie J. BJ I'm just not sure about

I also threw Bryce Gibbs in there for the hell of it, his numbers over the last month stack up real well, but from now until the end of the season I have given him a 7/13 rating in terms of top line defensive teams/taggers he has to face.

If Bryce keeps doing what he did against the Cats he might be a real good POD for someone else. Blues do have a tough run but he has been trending upwards the last 8 weeks. It would take a lot of balls to make this move but it could pay off with a huge reward come the end of the season

[Mat0369]

I updated the original post, 9 trades left, 2 upgrades needed. D6 is the big need, Higgins will be my luxury trade if he misses this week. Ibbo is the guy I am watching in defense. Midfield is done, Rucks are done, Parker ASAP

[Mat0369]

I had a look at B/E's the only trade I might consider this week is Hartung>mid rookie for coverage and some sneaky cash. My forward rookies still look pretty good and have cash to make, Missy might be worth holding onto as well, Ibbo should drop in price and it will be good to monitor how he goes this week with no Johnson/McPharlin.

[Mat0369]

Hartung>O'Brien it is. I think with Ambrose/Z. Merrett/Cameron in my forward line I can skip the Governor. I might be able to squeak out Cutler>Ibbo next week and Merrett>Parker but will be left with basically no cash.

Trades look good.

Say you grab Ibbo and Parker, how many trades left and upgrades remaining?

6 trades, 0 upgrades if you consider Higgins/Suckling good enough. That is the point I am handing back the team to brad.

[Bill Manspeaker]

haha jumped on to see how ya went last night Mat, seen the guy you are up against has Zac Dawson. game over  ;D

[Mat0369]

Sadly they are not the only ones, I played someone else in this league with the great Zac as well. You have this league in the bag

[Mat0369]

Updated the OP. I am tempted to get in Stef Martin for ruck coverage even though I lack a DPP in the rucks to swap him with. Higgins has to go, he is reverting to spud form, Parker I can wait two weeks on due to his poor score.

I am thinking

Higgins>Martin
Merrett>Gray

Next week Cutler>best available defender

Week after Currie>Thurlow
Ambrose>Parker

It leaves me with 3 trades for LTI's and a full team of premiums (including Suckling) with coverage on every line hopefully.

[Mat0369]

I completely forgot I made the Higgins>Martin and Merrett>Gray trades. They look pretty good for this week. I can get Parker cheap in a couple for Ambrose and then just upgrade Cutler for a D6 and I am set.

[Mat0369]

So although Higgins to Gray is probably favouring not having pulled the trigger this week, Merrett sub has made the trade worth it.

[Mat0369]

The current team, 6 trades $318,900



I got no idea what you want to do brad but D6 needs to be sorted. I wanted to get in Parker but don't have the cash with Ambrose. Ben Brown might be an option if he makes it to the bubble for Currie.

[Vinny]

Think you just have to pass on Parker man, Martin is alright at F6, at least wait until he tops out and upgrade him.

I'd just upgrade Bews to Hibberd. Obviously he has not made much cash but Gardiner and Cutler is a stronger bench than Bews and one of the two.

Cutler is killing in the 2s and seems he is in and out and on the verge of the Brissy 22.

Looks good otherwise.

[Mat0369]

I was going to palm off Cutler since he is priced the highest and has vest written all over him. Both his and Bews JS blow, at least Gardiner gets a game every week unsubbed (although I saw he was just subbed off injured). Hibbo was the one I was looking at, but he is expected to miss this week so I have to hold off with him if I do make the move this week.
