Must win game for me this week... Really want the next werk off!!
In a BIG dollar $$$$ league,

Def: McVeigh, Malceski, Swallow, Simpson, Jaensch, Mitchell (L Thompson, Georgiou)

Mids: Pendlebury, Selwood, Ward, Fyfe, Beams, Rockliff, Parker, Miles (Taylor, Hartung)

Ruck: Sandilands, Mumford (Brown, King)

Fwd: Dangerfield, D Martin, Gray, Zorko, Roughead, S Martin (Lennon, Spina M/F)

5 Trades and $360,900

The 2 Options im tossing up with are:

1. Use 1 trade - Taylor to JPK or Priddis & bench Miles (should i look to offload Miles now or will he be ok cover/loophole was his 46 a one off?)

2. 2 trades - Taylor to JPK & Miles to Priddis, switch Parker Fwd, use Gray/Zorko as M/F cover (is that a wasted trade?)

Any other options i should look elsewhere for improvements??

Cheers for your help!!

If you want to have next week off option 2 looks fantastic

Option 2 for sure but wait for teams to be announced as you may have to do something with defence if Mitchell and Swallow do not come up.
If you go Option 2 you have 3 trades for injuries loss of form.

With option 2 you significantly relying on priddis to out score zorko/ Gray ( depending which you bench). And jpk ( who will probably be cheaper next week) to out score miles.
Personally I would  put emergency on miles ( see what he scores Friday night) if he goes poorly trade Taylor to jpk, if he goes well  keep him.

Option 2 really improves your team plus you get good bench coverage.
I think three trades is good for the last three weeks (hopefully you won't have to use any next week, if you win this game).

Yes, gotta love the rolling lock-out.

I Agree.. Option 2 does really strenghtens the look of my team.. Im hoping Mitchell is over his virus so it really comes down to Swallow. But my thoughts are is there much point at this stage using the 2nd trade to have a premium sitting on the pine?

This is what i am thinking..
Using Miles Friday night game as a loophole, effectively gives me 2 shots at a 100+ score. If i do this it will allow me the spare trade if Swallow's named but pulls out late.. Hmmmm

I didnt catch the Richmond game last week...
What was with Miles 46? Once off or starting to tire?

I'm hoping it's a once off, but I'll be putting the E on Miles just in case.
