Should I be trading any of Oliver, sheed, Williams?
Feel like sheed had his time and will now go back to 80’s

Trying to bring in Boak this week, Rockliff next week
Yeah out of those, I would only trade Sheed. ZWilliams has 95 and 100 odd in his last two, I’d hold tight til the byes as he still hasn’t been too bad (just had a down week).
Oliver is a genuine premium. I’m looking to bring him in soon so I wouldn’t trade.

Word of warning on Boak v Rocky is that one of them could receive the Hutchings tag this week. I’m hoping it’s boak as a Rocky owner, but it could be rocky too. Has Boak been more damaging? Port fans?

seriously thinking

English - > ROB
Butters - > ???
ROB scored alright but I personally saw quite a few things I didn't like from him. If Jacobs is out for a while he might be viable, if Jacobs is fit i would imagine ROB's spot is in danger, purely how i viewed his game as a spectator.

Obviously will wait and see what the media say about Jacobs this week , 84.5 Ave for ROB after 2 games at his price is fairly impressive , he might get another 4-6 games.

wait and see

question is what is his output if Jacobs is back in the side. think you may find it will drop off to 50 levels.

Likely option this week is
Butters > Stack
Parker > Marshall

fwd line was the weak link this week hopefully Marshall can turn up against Gawn!
$10k short of the same moves myself! Considering using Drew instead of Parker to cover the gap. Drew's scoring has taken a hit over the past fortnight...

Initial Trad thoughts -

Rookie (butters maybe ) - Stack
Rookie - hore

Or big gamble
Goldy - mummy

Feel 1 trade this week for cash. Worried about both stack and hores JS thou, but doesn’t seem to be many rookies on the radar atm

Butters - Stack
Sheed - Merret

Pity Sheed couldn't get one more week of decent scoring to push to near 500k. He's been a good pick but not outstanding. Merret looks the goods to me, has bounced back from interrupted pre-season and Essendon have found a groove.

I don't think they will play them both together , if ROB plays another 4 games he only gets to $ 300k and I am still in the same situation I am in now , might just go Mummy and if he misses games sobeit

He has been an outstanding pick in that every owner would have taken his scores so far if they were offered to you prior the season start. But he is now at risk of falling behind the other mid price madness in the midfield.

Tough week for any trades for me, a couple of under performing players I would like to move on but no real cash outs on rookies and not enough money in the bank to do those upgrades.

Is anyone else eyeing off the 90k upgrade of Moore to Marshall?

Seems a nice cheap move.
I think Moore is still important to structure due to DPP flexibility and wanting to minimse less reliable on-field forward rookies.

But I like Marshall and will be looking to get Parker up to him, I think.

So is Rowan Marshall a keeper? Will he keep Billy Longer out of the team? Grateful for advice. If Marshall isn't rucking the year I don't think I want him, I've already got my F7/M9 sorted (thanks Dunkley the Dud).

LDU>Stack
Parker>Marshall
Saints fans would burn moorabin down if longer was picked to play ruck over marshall now. You'd expect longer gets a game or two to give Marshall a rest at some point (either week off or split ruck duties) but not apart from that. This all assumes Marshall keeps playing like he is. Picking whether that happens? Well, that's the trick, isn't it.

Best avenue to turn Butters into Rocky ($447,500)? Or do i just skip him now and hope and pray he slows down :rolleyes:

$165,100 ITB, 4 trades used so far.

I didn't mind the look of Stack but not sure he is a must have even at $102k.

Scott and Butters to Rocky and Stack is probably your best option.

Rocky probably has to be a keeper now if you pick him.
