Ended up doing Butters to ROB & Setterfield to Stack.
I paired the trades up differently but had the same ins and outs.

Need Clark to do well to make this look better than Clark to Hore, which was the main alternative I was looking at - albeit I’m quite happy with Stack’s performance.

I also did the same, but have Hore already. Stack looks a player - glad I jumped on.

Round 5 just done.
Burgess out from DEF bench, Caleb Graham moved from RUC bench to there and O'Brien into RUC bench spot.

Was curious to see how many other owners of loophole agent Caleb Graham. turns out another 1,114 owners.
Could use him on field to take Durrsma emergency score of 64 but I really want to see what Clark and Scrimshaw can do tomorrow so not going to take the emergency score and sense Clark due for a good rookie score. Scrimshaw been averaging over 64 so no real great reason to take Duursma score this round.

I ended up doing Gawn to Mummy and Bines to ROB. Seemed like a fun way to have a dabble with a little insurance policy, I expected more from Mumford yesterday though.
Did the same. Was looking good at half time with Mummy on 58!

Reasonably content with the decision, will see what happens over the next few weeks.

What’s your plans with the cash? My only worry is that I’m down to 24 trades now, and have 300k in the back pocket. Very content with the look of my team though

I ended up trading out Westhoff and Butters and traded in Heeney and O'Brien. The main reason was that I wanted my team to score more points each week to win my League games.

I hope you, @Slacker and others made the right choice with Westhoff, it was a tough decision for some.
Hi Bermi

I said I would tell you of my decision re Westhoff:

Butters > Stack
J Selwood > Bont.

When I selected my starting team after agonising over it for weeks, I found it was just like everyone elses! So I thought I better add in a few speculatives and they were J Selwood, Hoff and D Martin. None of them have worked out. Luckily I could downgrade Martin to Libba. Bont's price is on the rise and he will be a keeper, so I have decided to cut my losses with Selwood. So that leaves me with Westhoff and it looks like I will keep him as an F6. Hopefully they will put him in the forward line a bit more so he can kick a few goals. If I keep Westhoff I can't see the point in going for ROB.

Good luck with your choices.

Since i buggered up my English > ROB trade, i'm considering trading out Dangerfield.

Danger > Kelly and bank 140k

Talk me out of it, my team is a shambles anyway and i'm so annoyed with myself i pretty much don't care right now!!

English is on 40. I’d try to find another way to bring in O’Brien if possible.
