Ironically JMartin’s shocker brings him back onto the table for me, probably couldn’t have afforded him if he had scored well.

Looking to keep it simple (rather than target a Jezza or Joey D) and go:
BSmith > JMartin
NN > Gawn
Parker > Cogs

I think $$ should work for the above. Only have 6k in bank. Hopefully all 3 trades are genuine improvements to my side.

Will be hard to pick which one of Simpkin and B Smith to move on. I don't really like Simpkins role, doesnt look like he's in the centre bounces much (could be wrong but doesn't look like it to me) but B Smith has more competition with Dunkley back (although can still pump out a 150 as proven a few weeks back)...

Will probably ultimately depend on who I can afford with Simpkin vs Smith as an upgrade

First trade will most likely be a reluctant Bont to Gawn, unless Draper scores 120.

Then one of two options:

1. Macrae and Wingard to Petracca and Lyons. 38k for final upgrade (M8) using Draper + Close and my last two trades in round 18.

2. Duncan and Wingard to Lyons and Cogs. No cash left, but should be able to get a serviceable F6 come round 17.

Looks like a bit of a nightmare round coming up. Lots of teams are going to struggle with the byes and then Ryan, Ridley and Kelly could all miss as well.

yeah - wait - Ridley too? I thought I read or saw somewhere that AFL concussion rules mean that a player can't play within five days of failing a concussion rule... I may have misinterpreted though,

but if that is the case, then Jelly simply isn't allowed to play. ANyone confirm that rule?

Yeah I think that’s a fair assumption that Jelly can’t play due to the rule.

JJK already ruled out.

Looked to me today like Simpkin is mentally “already on the beach” as the saying goes: wandering up and down the ground 15 metres off the contest, sticking an arm out in so-called “tackle attempts”, totally out CP’d by Greenwood who (I think) was his match-up...

I think their output will be similar, but Smith has more chance of getting a spike score in the final few rounds than Simpkin does.

I'm trying to work out if that additional $50k can be put to good use. If it can I will probably move him on

Bont at 670 to gawn at 673.9k I think is a sign from the supercoach gods so no brainer there

Currently thinking
Sholl > Butts/BJ Williams (as D8 and potential 19-21 for this bye round)
Close > C Lyons as a 102.4k mid loophole
Schoenberg > M.Crouch which complete my side with 4 trades remaining
