woooot... all of sudden putting the 22 on the pitch just became that much harder for a lot of teams.

These bans could help a few like me who have none of the players on holiday

thinking of Ablett to Liberatore or Hartung to Morabito this week depending on the estimated length of injury..
Selwood, Dangerfield and Sandilands all looking like they might do with a week off too, just hopefully it's not Selwood this week as well!

Really??? Really??? Really????

My 2 unique premiums both out for 1 week. Wow.

Wingard and bloody o'brien cover, do I trade Goddard and keep rocky if o'brien is still out or sub?

Or just keep both and take the hit?

4 trades left after trading gazza. swan might need to be upgraded which will only require 1 trade.

Should I keep McGovern as my FWD cover?
Except for that poor score that he had last week due to the weather, he has been doing ok.
Obviously the choice has to be made this week due to his high B/E.
Either I keep him as my F7 or I cash him in before he bleeds too much cash.
Opinions welcome cheers!

Fyfe, JPK or Sloane are my early Ablett candidates. At least with Ablett being the top priced players we can afford anyone.

Jeez he's been stiff, a knock to the gut of a player is stiff to get a week, I looked at it about 10 times and could barely see what was going on. Would have been a reprimand (probebly fair enough) but the carryover points from his off the ball fair bump on Mitchell which was bull**** pushed him over to a week.

In other news Petrie Dish has been given a reprimand for defending himself against a chocker hold??? What the ****!!!!

And Goddard gets a week for something that you literally cannot see at all. Absolute joke.

Ablett > A.Swallow ($486,400) - This is very left field and is just a thought for me at the moment.

1. Swallow has a really good history over the past 4 seasons, with averages of 106.2, 111.9, 109.4 and 101.3.
2. He has just starting hitting some form with 134 against the Lions in a loss and 100 against the Hawks in a win.
3. His contested possession, tackle and clearance counts have been very good in the past 3 weeks. He has also kicked 4 goals in those 3 games.
4. North Melbourne has a very good run home... St.Kilda, Carlton, Geelong, GWS, W/B, Adelaide and Melbourne.
5. He is averaging just under 100 if you take away his first 2 return games (round 9 he was the sub and round 10 was his first full game).

My hope would be that he can average 105+ for the rest of the season and possibly upgrade Swan to Ablett after he plays 1 or 2 games. If not, Swan + savings to Rockliff or Fyfe.

I hadn't really thought of Swallow, but was thinking of doing something a bit more "Moneyball" to make up Ablett's numbers. Also, if I don't go for one of the 600k mid options, increases likelihood of getting in Parker and Mitchell in the coming weeks.

With Rocky being out, would JPK or Ward be a better trade in for Gaz?

We are replacing Gaz here, we simply have to go best available. Just go through all of the players you don't have and pick the best player, the one that you think will score the most points over the next 7 weeks.
