Only way Id be holding Clarry is if I was ridiculously low on trades, but its very easy to say when you trade him weeks ago and get the most value out of it, I just personally never trust a so called one week hamstring.
How much trust do you have in a one week MCL strain?

Missed Fletcher as a trade-down option last night. Struggling to find much else.
I haven’t spotted much that looks appealing either.

I was actually considering copping a cash drop from Humphrey in DT this week so I can go one up/one down next week, rather than taking a rookie I don’t like (the other cash cow in Mitchell should rise more than enough to o***et).

Has anyone else spotted a playing cash cow that they like the look of as a trade in option? Preferably on the bubble, but need not be.

Nope can't see any, Binns could/should be named tonight for Carlton but I've been hoping for that for the last month since Hollands got injured

I reckon I could even carry Mullin on any other line than defence.

I missed him as well, the rest of the options are terrible.

Need to trade Yeo & Humphrey. I'm $1300 short of Mills (who will drop even more with a 162 b/e & Keays (who is on my never again list)
I can go straight from Humphrey to Keays - really unsure what to do. Might see how Sheldrick goes tonight on loop.

Would really like to move Humphrey and Weddle out though.

Biting the bullet. Have 7 trades left pre-trades:

1: Trading Sicily to Libba (via Dawson back to defence)
2: Humphrey to Gulden (104k in the bank)

Pre-round 18 when Sicily is back: Johnson or Wardlaw down to rookie, S.Mitchell to Sicily (via dpps)

*I could bring in Butters this week instead of Gulden, but that would leave with with 35k in the bank & make it touch and go being able to afford/get Sicily back R18. Would prefer Butters over Gulden obviously but 70k cheaper allows me to definitely get Sicily back whilst it will be line-ball if i get Butters.

I'm holding until the bitter end.
I’m still stubbornly holding now as well, I’ve always traded at any sign of a 3 week injury & always run out of trades in the last 2 weeks for my cash league. Hopefully this year might be different but we still have 8 weeks left 🤦‍♂️
Another here stubbornly holding. Sigh

Thanks for your replies @Tamuhawk @Zimmer @Matt

I had a look at the Blues boys, and their DPP could be quite handy, but their game counts have me a bit concerned.

I’ve gone with Hewett for DT for now. In SC I’ve managed to get Libba without a downgrade, but I’ll keep an eye out for any good options that pop up.

There seems to be some indication that Sinn could be brought in - he may be another option if that eventuates.

If I have stubbornly held Oliver this long... is it now at the point where I'm committed? I only have 3 trades left lol.

I'm too stubbon to trade him now!
