If I could trade Wilmot (bench cover) to get Oliver, would I be silly to trade ashcroft (M7) instead? I know I'm giving up points on field but wilmot still has a bit more to make and his DPP might also be useful as cover during the byes

Marshall or Darcy to Gawn??

Marshall injury risk but low BE
Darcy generates more cash and high BE.
if there keepers does break even matter, who do you think we score the best from here on?

I would keep Darcy, but Freo are not travelling well, they are both a little prone to injury.

More decent players to share the points at the Saints, but they take a bigger slice of the pie if they keep winning.

Goodluck man.

Late call for advice - thought I had the day to consider things, but looks like I only have an hour. Reps for any input.

60k in the bank - 2 boosts left.

Cowan, Wilmot, McKenna, Ashcroft, Davey, JVR all on the chopping block.
Wouldn't surprise to see any or all of the Lions to have a spike this week against Essendon's injury list - Wilmot and McKenna go before Ashcroft.
Would like to get some cash gen in Cowan's position.
JVR despite playing, seems to have hit his limit.

Atkins seems to have convinced many at his pricepoint - will he make enough $ and or score enough to justify his price?
Weddle seems to be next, largely given the lack of rookie options?
Drury a week early...? Like his position but not liking going early.
Knevit has popped up as a late consideration.

Brought Sinclair in last week. Looking at Sicily this week, or should I just pay up for Dawson?

Really depends how much damage getting Dawson does to near future planned upgrades but he is pretty much D1 (and also a top 3 mid so far). Haven't been sold on Sicily this season, looked to be getting back to some decent scoring until last week where he completely tanked the first quarter (was minus at 1/4 time).

Out: L Cowan, J Van Rooyen and O Hollands
In: J Weddle (via Sheezel, Taranto and Constable), B Drury and A Brayshaw/mid premium/etc

Wilmot to the bench and opens up the dpp swing with Constable with Taranto moving to the forward line and Sheezel to D5. Keeps all the Lions rookies and deals with two from your list of six above.

I'd consider holding this week, or just doing a single down (JVR) to bank some cash if you can convince yourself on Weddle or similar. You don't need the on-field points of Atkins I don't think, so it's about banking some cash. Then if Drury goes OK next week you can downgrade Cowan and have approx 260k to upgrade before boosts.

"The positive is rookies will rise more quickly with a higher MN. "

No they wont because they're not getting games.
I’m guessing that’s the reason the MN hasn’t declined as it normally does?

Yeah, you might be right.

Or else I could go all out with
