Personally I would go Brockman. I am thinking that Daniher will go big against Essendon. Jordan should get more game time this week and Campbell is going to make more cash.
Pretty much brockman is gone for me. So its a matter of finding a second guy to chop or maybe even just doing 1 trade

Yeah that’s the issue, kinda hoping one of them doesn’t get named to help make my decision easy.

Is McNeil who you think I should trade out ?
He's just the one I don't own anymore 😂

From those options Jordon is probably the one i'd trade but with little confidence. For my own situation, hoping Fullarton is dropped for McStay to make it easier for myself.

Is Waterman a must have ?

Jones/McNeil/Scott/Jordan my options to trade out for him. They are all one decent score from making good cash.
I doubt it. Probably best to wait and see if Scott or McNeil lose their spots.

I'd need to trade that sort of player to Waterman if I want to do Daniel to Bowes as well, Bergman's apparently back in and Sharp wouldn't get me enough cash. I don't have McNeil or Jones, Jordon's shown the ability to score decently so it would have to be Scott- preferably because he's been dropped, I'd rather not trade a playing rookie so I can raise the extra $200 I need to make my other trade.

That’s what I’m thinking. If all named, I might just hold off and look at Jones/McCreery/Macrae etc instead and let my current rookies keep making cash.

Yeah he’s BE is a little high with that 24 in his system for a couple more weeks. Seems to have good JS and as the ability to put up good scores though.

Currently only have 27 trades left. Don't think I have room to bring in Waterman.

In my the forward line Warner, Rowe & H.Jones all have a bit more money to make. Same goes for A.Scott (BE of -1)

Get rid of Campbell? He hasn't made a lot of money yet to warrant a trade I reckon. Could get a good score soon

Other option is to trade McNeil or Sharp to Waterman (and shift A.Scott into mids). What do people reckon? Waterman is a must have?
Keeping in mind that I want to spend trades on upcoming rookies who are possibly better and might be on the bubble soon (L.Jones, F.Macrae etc.)

Also, leaning towards holding Daniel for now...very very tempted to sideways trade though...

Anyone got a strong opinion on Parish? Has threatened in patches over the last couple of years, but then throws in some really quiet games. In the two games since Shiel and Caldwell went down, he's looked really good to me. Seems to be getting a lot of CBAs. Shiel is out for four months, and Caldwell for 4-6 weeks, so I'm hoping he can raise that floor and ave 105 to the byes? It's a very awkward price, so he needs to score keeper numbers to be a good pick.

His price allows me to just afford Oliver next week.

Would you consider getting Heppell instead?

Parish is getting mid-minutes because of injuries, super-skilled but he's too small IMO. Compare him and Oliver, who went in consecutive picks in their draft. Running joke in our family (of Bombers fans) is to call him "Baby Hands", which is exactly what he has, and it will become much more obvious during the coming winter months. There are a number of players for Supercoach I would pick over him about the same price. Good big man beats a good little man and all that.

Really unsure what to do with trades this round.
Initially i was only planning the one trade of either Campbell or Jordon to Waterman and bank the cash for next week to bring in a premo def or mid.

Now with the news of Meek dropped and possibly Flynn not coming back in & obtaining the $$$ from the 1st trade, is Meek to Hickey a smart or reasonable trade? It would allow me to get to Grundy or Nic Nat for example in the near future as i went with Gawn, Flynn & Meek as my rucks.

Currently sitting at 193 overall so it's a pretty important decision. Any advice would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Think Hickey makes a lot of sense, assuming you can't afford Grundy straight up.

With GWS and GC the next two, Hickey should make 75k over the next couple and has been playing very well. Normally that wouldn't be worth a trade but if he's also avoiding donuts then that changes the dynamic rapidly. Most likely he has to go by the Grundy and Gawn matchups though so it's buying you 3 weeks.

Of course he's still Hickey so god only knows!
