After starting Gawn over English last season I've learned my lesson and started English over Gawn tihs season.

Seems to be going well for me again. :)

I've no idea what to do about trades this round. I'm still fixing structure which is a worry, I'm very nervous about a rookie being at D6 with Williams, Mass and Bramble - flirting with danger so I need to get some confidence in that line and stability. I'm also aware I just really need to get through this round and it's best 18 again but with Sexton, Reid and Hore still in my team I could be lucky to field a best 18.
If it's of any help, I'm just taking Howes' score at D6 this week (Pink and Hore on the bench) then planning to solve it over the best 18 weeks.

Maybe Howes gets one more price rise before his bye then I use some downgrade money from elsewhere (probably two required) to take him straight up to a premium, leaving me 4 + Massimo and Williams.

Well alot of rookies omitted this week and alot of rookies added for their first game. Was not expecting it this early in the season. My Goodness, Hardwick has brought the broom out early with a clear intention to the future, could be up to 8 suns on the move at the end of the year.

Wines to Touk Locked. Probibility this is my only trade ths week.

Now thinking of holding Jordan. With Lazzero dropped, my concern is Powell moves to his role and goes back to a 70 average.?? Any thoghts on this. Dempsey, is it too late.?

I like the Darcy Trade, but could also be gone next week with Lobb at the back of the class with the hand up seeking attention.

Now thinking to hold LDU and only make the 1 trade this week, with a eye on either Dawson or Oliver RD7. Get one more rise out of Jordan and downgrade to a Rookie.

Thanks, my structure isn’t good. I’m too heavy in the mids from the get-go with where I have Bont/Serong/Rozee/Steele/Miller and that’s seen me benching points from Sanders/Reid/Fyfe types due MPP issues and fielding defender rookies. I’ll probably cut and Reid and bring in both a Clark (D) and Holmes (M/D) to create some redundancy with the likes of McKercher and Roberts in a couple of weeks. If Howes is dropped next week I could be in trouble with him, Reid and Hore still in my team and I feel like Williams is a ticking time-bomb.

Most won’t like this train of thought but it’s where my head is at currently.
