I don't want to make moves, but I think I need to. Going to need some rookie corrections in Rd 3, so might need some mid price corrections this round.

Stewart -> someone

Then contemplate moving both Hunter Clark and Fyfe.

Could go to JHF and Setterfield or similar (via Ginbey to defence for Clark)

Theres the temptation to be aggressive and move a Bruhn or Hopper straight away but will likely just do the Stewart trade out and sit for another week, got a decision whether I take Daicos/Young or just get one of the big dogs but have less cash to use to fix problem areas.

So Jelly might miss 2 games with the concussion protocols, anyone considering getting Cogs for him?

WCE this week, we saw what LDU did to that midfield - last few years have given big points up to gun mids.

Carlton/ Ess/ Haw after that so nice draw.

Very good chance Cogs is a top 6 fwd this year, might be the best chance to get him before his price goes up.

What average did your originally peg Marshall in for and has your expectation changed drastically today compared to before the season started?
Originally 100pts

Was uncertain of the Gawn / Grundy Combo. But Max is a must have could push 125 and dont think he will be cheeper anytime soon.

Will roll with Darcy and Gawn.

Done Trade

Itchy trigger finger:
J Kelly > J Worpel
Fyfe > Sheezel
O Baker > J Ridley via DPP

Middle of the road:
J Kelly > J Worpel
L Jones > Ridley

Steady hand:
Theoretically no trades or only Fyfe > Sheezel

Definitely in my considerations.

Really don't want to use a boost already so would be handy if Jones can play so I can move on Kelly.

Something like Stewart to Daicos/Ridley/Young and Kelly to Coniglio looks nice.

I've completed the following trades, but still sitting and thinking on them though:

OUT - Fyfe, Jones
IN - Mackenzie, Rampe

Remaining - $111,900

Not chasing points with Rampe, just trying to find a decent mid pricer. I need to look into another couple of others or rookies, but happy to hear thoughts too.

Missed 2 back in 2020 due to concussion, but that was a condensed fixture. Their week 3 fixture is 13 days and I think it may still be 12 (I could be wrong on that)

Not sure what happened with Rampe's scoring last year (ave 60) but I wouldn't go there. You might be able to keep Jones for another week and give him a chance to redeem himself.

GWS are cooked after yesterdays heat, combined with the travel to Perth and I’m not sure that they will be running out that last qtr with much left in the tank.

reverse AT kiss of death with Setterfield? Otherwise I'd love to be in control of your team!

Looking at the scores he had a big second half, improved role or?
The Hawks were just awful in the 2nd half and he was down hill skiing and will probably struggle against better opposition. His role wasn't bad, but he seemed to play defensive side of the circle when he was at the CBA most times and didnt feel like he got his hands on it a lot at the coalface. The Bombers rucks looked like they were mostly trying to get it to Parish. He lined up on the wing a few times, but does seem to be a main part of their mid set up.
