Hi Rowsus,
Thinking of doing a sideways Hmac to Naitanui. Is this a waste of a trade and should I hold fire for now? Hmac has been serviceable but doesn't look like he can go up another gear. Nic Nat if he runs into fitness could make a charge for the rest of the season but... ?
Other issue I have is Langford, was going to hold him for 1 or 2 more weeks for a bit more cash but not selected again. Best I can do if I trade out Langford is $454,000.
Very annoying as this cash was set aside for Tyson to Fyfe in a week or 2.
Any insights would be much appreciated.
cheers
Hi Rowsus,
Thanks for your reply. Have to agree not convinced by NicNat either. He has been good for my teams of the past years when I have had him. I know if I trade him in this week HMac will get his best score of the year ha ha. Was going to wait until Saturday before I would trade out Langford too. Got stung by him last week - had no way of getting him on the ground once he was a late in and had to settle for Gardiners score. My plan was to get Bartel/Simpson or the like to finish off backline and not settle for a lower ranked defender. I do like Thompson on previous years form on the cheaper side of decent defenders.
Love your work again this year!!!
I copied my team link in again it works for me now.
My side is Saints & Sinners

Ok, I'm guessing you have $126,600 sitting in the bank?
Have you thought about Lloyd out, Shenton down, O'Brien in? (+$119,100)
If you do that you have $573,100 when Langford goes out.
Given you still have 3 full upgrades and 3 half upgrades to make, I don't think you can afford to use it all at once.
Given your need to make a few upgrades, and the backline is the best place to compromise, I think I'd choose out of Jaensch, Murphy R or SD Thompson. I'd probably go Thompson. He's owned by less than 3% of Coaches, can go large, has dropped $114,000 this season, and should be about to rise in price (B/E 73). You can re-establish your DPP M/F link later by shifting Shenton up when you trade out Acres/O'Brien.
Good luck
