Have gone with Mitchell, Sturt in for cowan and Phillips. So now it's the 3rd trade to consider.

Trading out McKenna (D5) gives me 540k. So Sinclair, Sicily, or a 540k mid by switching Ginbey.

Or

Trading out Wilmot (D6) give me 494k so W. DAY
You could wait 1 week and bring in Steele for $530k

Those with Roberts trading/holding? Think he’s out for 8-10 weeks but only 149k so not sure it’s better to just keep him as a donut and hope he comes back later in the year.

I’ve also got Madden, Constable and Cowan so it’s a lot of deadwood to carry :oops:

Otherwise could get rid of Cowan and Roberts which doesn’t generate much cash but does strengthen my bench (for now)

EDIT: Stuff if, saving the boost. Touk/Cowan > Cogs/S.Mitchell. Fading Day, fielding McKenna for one more week. Please hit your 62 BE... This is a spud move only if Cogs stinks it up with Green back, and Day tons up against a busy Bulldogs forward line... :oops:

Ah, the Cogs and Day conumdrum - shopping Touk out, so who do I bring in out of the two? Hard FOMO this week for me. Classic "why not both" Old El Paso moment sunk in last night.

OUT: Touk, McKenna, Cowan
IN: Cogs, Day, S.Mitchell

At rank 39K, it might be wiser for me to roll the dice on a Josh Daicos POD in place of Day, especially since I'm burning the boost I saved last week. And I'm seriously considering it.

Another thing to note is my shocking lineup of cash cows, but I'm like most in that regard. Next week is the week for Cincotta, and whoever steps up in place of Touk over at the Suns - I'm ready for you Fiorini.

I'm watching the Suns closely, cause if Fiorini steps up, I'm going Ashcroft/Roberts > Fiorini/Cincotta. Fills another gap in the Rd12 bye, disposes of a dead rookie.

23.8% of top 1% teams have traded Day in so far this round
Damm did not need to read this, was hoping to only make the one trade and I am still dithering of this one 🤔
Not sure I have ever been so uncertain or scared of making a trade before 🙄

Or maybe Weller?
Wow, only in 285 teams at the start of Rd7, now on 807 trade ins. Massive POD. Kick ins over the last four rounds: 7, 7, 6 and then only 1 kick in last week where he mustered up a 134 against North with almost three times as many marks as the round prior. Lots of disposals, high TOG. Moved to a wing role recently. Same price but is a lot more SC impactful compared to Jaicos.

Very intriguing.

Edit: 35 BE this round, but is he bound to get injured? 2021: 13 games played, 2022: 11 games played.

I like that idea tbh over day.

I'm thinking of switching day to O'Halloran. Points hit this week. But still generate income and can grab someone I'm more sold on next week

What do folk think of boosting Will Phillips, Baker and Touk to Day, Sicily and Seamus Mitchell over swapping Roberts to Mitchell and Touk to whatever $600k premo (who could be Sicily or Day)?

Thought about a lot this morning, and now I'm really hesitant on having to burn my fourth boost. If I just do Touk/Cowan > Cogs/S.Mitchell and keep McKenna, fade Day. I'm left with $227.9k ITB to two up next week.

This only hurts if Day tons up, and Cogs has a stinker.

I already have Sicily, and I assume you already have Cogs. If I were you I wouldn't burn the boost this week.
