$$$ generation is needed.
Don't want to go early on Drury or Berry.
Don’t think Weddle is the answer
Current thinking is,
Greene => Bytel, if named.
Wilmot => Atkins

Looking at a boost for this week
McKenna => Ziebell Or
Johnson => Holmes.
Zieball will defo be a top 6 def this year, if only it was last week I grabbed him!
it does feel I‘m chasing points now, so wondering whether i go somewhere else for now and sling shot to him after his Rd 15 bye? Ive got too many in Rd 15 already Anyways!

Looking at Holmes from Geelong, ave 95 490K 4 tons and 2 90’s from 8 games.
Has a good bye, with Danger out for 3 weeks could see a spike in CBA’s currently at 34%.
should make some more cash or at least hold his $$ and hopefully get a few extra points +10 would be nice!
i think Danger if he comes back round 12 may only be the sub given their bye the following week or may even hold him back till after the bye.
will Geelong share the cba pie around or will they have a post Danger look for the future?

Thinking Mills and Freoshaw next week, both should be ready by then to know if viable or not!

This is my team after trades this week, not comfortable at all with going early on Drurry, so playing it safer with Knevitt.
Really stuck with what to do next week, natrully JVR will go, but might struggle toget to an uber primo that my team is clearly missing

Obviously don't love the Rory Atkins pick but after trading in "the cheaper alternatives" in Roberts, Johnson, Sturt and Angwin over the last few weeks, my team really can't afford another low priced rookie bust so he will likely come in for me. Holds some value so even if he only plays 2 games I'd call it a win over the above.

It's all complete luck anyway so I won't lose any sleep over it.

North Melb.
Chesser could actually score if hes given a run in the midfield, they havent got much to lose doing it either.
If Chesser is named I’ll be picking him prefer him to both Weddle and Atkins. Bit of a punt but like you said the Eagles don’t have anything to lose and might give him an expanded role and pump games into him.

Built a bit of bank last week, time to blow it this week.
McKenna > Docherty
Hollands > Brayshaw
Only leaves 30k which is going to make things a tad difficult for an upgrade next week, still have 4 rookies on field, Cincotta/Ashcroft/Chandler/Simpson and only Mitchell and Davey as playing bench players.

Id be getting Chesser in most peoples situations, I just have held him through the whole time so isn't an option, JS is there and got a funny feeling his scoring improves the more footy he can get behind him, just needs a bit of luck with his body.

Yep that makes sense, all signs are pointing to him playing but if he's a late withdrawal I'll just cop a donut with only Madden as my ruck cover
I have samson Ryan in the forwards. Then I have sturt, Roberts and davey for coverage! I think Marshall plays. I assume I'll cop a donur if he doesn't.
