For the coming week... Laird vs Macrae?

Ideally I want both eventually, but does Macrae become 'more' important if he gets DPP?
I'd have to see BE's to decide this one, but think Macrae will be better value. Seems to have improved his scoring in the last 2 rounds too.

1. Wilmot to Ford
2. Day and Buckley to Ford and Briggs
3. Day and Buckley to Ford and Wardlaw
4. Day and Buckley to Ford and Premo

The only reason Day and Buckley are showing up so often is that they are losing cash by the day, whilst Wilmot, Ashcroft etc all have a bye and wont lose cash YET

Also have to keep Mitchell in mind as im hoping he hasn't been managed due to his ankle

Buckley's already lost most of the cash he's gonna lose, should maintain that price thereabouts from here, or maybe improve a bit if he can manage to stop acting like a spud.

This sounds a good option to me if you can. I seem to remember you having quite a few trades, so I'm sure you can make it work (3 trades available this round, 4 if you use a boost).

Of your 4 options, I'd definitely be trying to get a premo in. Briggs is a good trade in if you can afford a second to trade him out again at a profit (I can't really).

Wardlaw v Oisin

One is an expensive, injury risk with otherwise good JS and looks like he below at this level. (Bad bye)
The other a cheap, fit guy who looked pretty good, but JS is probably shaky. (Good bye.)

How much do we see Wardlaw making?

Not sure Oisin survives past his bye, so Wardlaw by default.

Slow burn 70K or so is what I see him making.

Stewart

Stewart - role certainty, history this year you can rely on and better bye. top end of his line.

Macrae - do you base decision on recent 140's or prior scoring, Treloar back and Bevo magnets.

round 15 when the donuts are coming people will panic trade sideways players due to Macrae type picks is my guess.

Ridley + the change vs Stewart?

A bit of context. Will end this round with 10 trades and 3 "upgrades" to make. 2 mids and a fwd. That would be counting day as a M8
