Reckon he is par with Serong and finishes above Libba on averages in that list.
Personally won’t be trading Green. He’s been clearly GWS’ best mid and apart from a hard tag second half last week against the main tagging team in the comp atm (Hawks) he looks like a gun.
Still has mini Oliver written all over him for ROS imo.

I think we also need to consider that Hopper, Taranto and Ward ran through the midfield in years previous. I’m pretty sure this is the first season Green is being given bulk CBA’s without those guys and alongside Cogs when he wasn’t shoved forward with Cameron in charge. I’m certain Cogs will benefit from no Green this week but unsure if Green has affected him much before where it’s been other guys and the coach instead.

I’m thinking of going aggressive this week and would appreciate any thoughts, Saad-Touk
Pickett-Neale
Caminiti-Roberts
It now gives me the big5 IMO in the mids with Laird, Oliver and Bont, I’ll be rotating when I can between Johnson, Roberts, Baker, Long and Davey at M8 for a bit and now have JZ replacing I suppose the big question mark in this trade scenario Saad at D3. Saad is done for 1-2wks and of course if he misses a week and takes up where he left off, my starting POD will haunt me for the rest of the season, but it’s a risk I’m willing to take as I’m languishing around the 60k mark and need to do something or my seasons just going to drift with maybe a 20k finish. Thoughts-hold fire and just get Stewart in 1up 1down and put Saad on the bench (original trade) or go aggressive with trade which leaves me with 22 trades and 7/8 upgrades, but with the likes of Sinclair, Sicily, Day all achievable and maybe Doch in a month or so, I feel their more likely a 2 trade proposition in as opposed to the 3 needed for the 600k+ brigade. Thanks in advance.

The "value" depends on when you buy them though. Some chance someone like Wines ends up a top midfielder across the second half of the year, and you'll have an opportunity to buy him for 400k
(Not advocating, btw, just suggesting it's a possibility. I wouldn't be getting on it!!)
With the limited cash it really is going to be a case of picking your way through and knowing where compromises, and calculated risks are OK, and where you have to spend your cash.

Considering an upgrade in the forward line, one of:
Ziebell vs. Butters vs. Heeney
I think Heeney is really underpriced for what he can output, however he has been stuck in the forward line and isn't attending many CBs.
I have a massive soft spot for Butters and he has a high ceiling, however I don't know how well Port are going to go this year and he has a tendency to get injured.
Ziebell is the obvious consistent choice, but I get the feeling he doesn't have a huge ceiling anymore.
Thoughts?

Ginbey > Roberts (via DPP)
Baker > Johnson
Leaves me with over $500k in the bank. Should I take an early cash in on Chandler > Miller? Or wait a week and hope Miller doesn't explode, so I make an extra $10k or so?
Typing that out makes it seem a bit silly to take less points and roll the dice on missing out on (say) a Wilmot > Day trade next week for the sake of $10k though.
