If Gulden out is top of your list you must be doing a hell of a lot better than me!
(Not difficult to do, but yeah...)

He's 460k, it's the definition of a sideways trade and surely not one we can afford to sling around at this time of year.

I prefer the Dawson (or equiv) out strategy, possibly freeing up 200k and replacing with another genuine premium. This year with the lack of rookie $ I think that's the smarter play.
Is it time to dump gulden?

For maybe a Heeney/ Cogs type.
Just a passing thought Gulden be 135 has taken two weeks to score that r5/6.
Cogs be 49 scored 238 last 2 weeks

Anyone given any thought to Xavier O'Halloran. 200k, so high end rookie price, but on the bubble this week with a good Breakeven following a 103 last week (on the back of 3 goals). Missed the first 4 weeks of the season with a quad injury, but straight into the side. A bit down week 1 (41 off 14 possies), and then the ton. More than 5 tackles each week, which is always a good sign.

Price is the main issue, and no real history of consistent supercoach scoring over 4 years in the league, but good size and good age.and a -28 breakeven

Is Treloar a trap? Good average, good history, no Dunkley? Seems like great value! Plus good draw!
This is going to sound strange but I think it may not be the right week to bring him in because of the Libba out. Libba does so much for that Dogs midfield in creating opportunities, that without him I’m a little worried Bont and co may not score quite as strongly this coming round.

Wilmot to S Mitchell lockish
Phillips to Sturt lockish

Cowan to Sicily makes sense
but I'm feeling
L Jones to Neale.

I also like watching mckenna play more than jones even though mckenna has a higher be!

It's a good shout, getting bulk CBAs. As mentioned above however durability an issue. Soft tissue injury history and a 30 year old isn't a great combo for finishing a season, although he only missed the one game last season.

Definately could be a good option, the price and Green back in are the concerns.

Sinclair v Sicily? Think I like the Sinclair pick more but has a bad bye.
Same dilemma. I think Sinclair may average slightly higher and be pretty consistent. Sicily has a low floor and a high ceiling. BE’s basically the same and Sicily 10k cheaper. I don’t like how Sinclair still spent time in the midfield last week despite the return of Steele. Sicily’s role hasn’t changed from last year. The round 12 bye is usually worse than the round 14 bye but in my case my other premo defenders are Dawson, Daicos and Ridley, all of which have the round 14 bye so at this stage I’m leaning towards Sinclair
