Assuming Butter's suspension sticks, like others I'll only have 17 players this week.

Of the premos on the bye, I have Daicos, Sinclair, Bont, Dawson and English. Of those, Dawson is the one that sticks out as currently underperforming. Worth sidewasing to Zerret and sitting on 5 trades?

Up to you obviously but I would save those 5 trades for as long as you can because you'll probably need them.

I'll be looking at

Garcia, Frejiah, Sullivan to Zorko, Worner, ?another rookie.

Will leave me with no ‘rookies’ left on field, but a few premos I’d like to move on and 7 trades.

Would love to see a thread dedicated to completed teams so I can do a bit of a comparison. Would be interesting to also see bench coverage and trades remaining.

I’m finished with Reid as coverage M/F and the Fisher/Jackson loops in their respective positions but 5 trades left worries me a bit.

Not sure which way to step this week, pretty much locking in Petracca > Yeo, I know there's risk associated but I do like the PODishness of Yeo, brought him in early in the season then traded him out, now back in again. Gives me 20 playing with Reville and Clark being the rookies.

Just tossing up whether to lose Freijah and Rogers/Richards to bring in Curnow/McKay or hold for a bit to give Rankine as an option instead, if I go with the 1st option then I'll have a completed team. Wondering whether it's better to roll with Freijah/Reville/Dowling as F6? Only have 5 trades left after losing Petracca so things are a tad tight.

Do these 3 trades to complete team with 3 trades remaining or calma down and hold my 6 trades?
No premo coverage, but a few good rookies by the looks. 52k in kitty. Ranked 1368, so would like to keep moving up.

Reid to Worner
Sullivan to Payne/or similar
Moyle to Curnow

Sullivan/Moyle to Payne/Curnow looks good but I wouldn't do the Reid to Worner trade. Worner's JS is iffy at best, and any cash he makes is irrelevant cause you won't have the trades to unlock it. Schoenmaker looks like fine def cover, and the difference between 3 trades and 4 is huge.
Hold that trade and keep 4 for the run home.

Looking at the top 10 point scorers so far this season, it is quite amazing how unique Treloar is compared to the others in the top 10 :-

Can't recall at this point of the season seeing the 6th highest ranked player for points having just a 2.2% ownership :eek::LOL:

Those 2.2% will be laughing until he pings a hammy or 2 at the worst moment. Putting together an outstanding run but just can't justify the price tag for a guy who has a pretty crazy injury history!

Yep, I wondered if it was overkill having both shoemaker and worner, cheers mate

I've pulled the trigger and moved Green on. I fully expect a 130ish performance but im interested in everyones thoughts who have held onto him. Is the potential to get back to premo numbers expected or hoped? Hes getting enough disposals, but just not delivering scores!

Thoughts on McKay rest of season? Could get him or McKercher. Seems to have a great fixture home as outlined above and swing Sexton into DEF.

Alternatively can do any sub 425k FWD. Whoever I bring in will likely have to stay ROS with limited trades.

The biggest hindrance on his scoring is his ball use, get's plenty of it but just uses it really poorly sometimes. This obviously won't fix itself overnight but Kelly and Coniglio coming back I think definitely help him. Can't underestimate the ankle injury he had a couple of weeks ago as well.

Realistically if you're trading, who are you trading to? You're sort of needing another 100k at least to get to someone else that's worthwhile. Personally I think the upside is still there for the price that I even traded him in last week as crazy as it sounds. Role is fine, Kelly and Coniglio coming back, what could go wrong?:ROFLMAO:
