If I can avoid injuries to key players this week, possibly none.

Realistically, likely to be one, pretty sure having Highmore and Sharp, if they don't get back in could end in disaster. So likely one will become Chapman.

I think Highmore is likely to come back in after saints disaster of a game. Sharp probably less likely.

Kept Neale, traded Cripps, typical. Rookie ruck line looking like a mistake. Ok @Herbie66, @Johnsy44 and whoever else, what the hell do we do?
I kept both Neale and Cripps. Whilst Meek and Flynn are both playing i’m staying the course.

Macrae is 1-1-1 for captain choice over Grawndy so i’ll stick with him and maybe roll with the seagull for a few weeks. Who knows could still jag a weekly prize or see an injury or suspension turn the season.

I can still trade into one of Gawn or Grundy using bank and a sub-premo correction (Degoey / McEvoy) this week, but don’t want to concede yet when the Flynn/Meek have actually been doing exactly what i’d hoped onfield.

Concerned though that Grawndy may be at lowest price till possibly week 7/8 now with the monster score in 3 week average.

I don't think Chapman is worth going early on culling a rookie so probably no trades for me although I've used 4 already to restructure my side. Feels nice to not have to field a defender rookie on-field each week.
I guess that depends on if said rookie is playing or not.

I agree its probably not worth trading a playing rookie, but not sure how soon Sharp will be back.

Personally I have been fortunate with injuries, so have only made 2 trades. Sharp to Chapman as a 3rd correction trade this week, if Chapman retains his spot is likely.

Dow just has to go. I got sucked in by all the hype.
I also have H Young but he can float for awhile.
Brightside is I have $240K in the bank and only used 2 trades so far.
Young --> Chapman
Dow --> Premium (probably any line you want via various popular DPPs this year)

Looks an obvious set of trades then to me. Seems silly to sit on Young if he's injured, and with the low score in his cycle, going to take a bit to get him moving again cash wise.

Dow can GTFO of my side. Haven’t considered who to trade in. Doesn’t really matter. I’ll take a sack of potatoes. More likely to find the pill.
Now tell us how you really feel about the Dow?! :LOL:

Don't worry I'm right there with you brother. I culled that spud for Jordon this week in SC and banked a sweet chunk of change. Somehow he's survived thus far in my AF side but it's now Operation GTFO for me there too.

The US Dow has gone up in value lately (about 2000pts in the past month). However our Aussie Dow has gone in reverse with his stock crashing after sucking us in with that NAB performance a month ago. So sell, sell, sell baby!

Yeah, feel there is FAR too much love for Chapman here.

Will monitor.

Have my rookies right, so at this stage am sitting back and looking for cash gen. Fingers crossed, no trades in R4 (I really enjoyed moving Dow on this round!)
