Didn't realise we get 3 trades during bye rounds otherwise I'd have brought in Sicily last week.
Had too many with a bye in Rd 14 so was the only reason it put me off. Gutted.
At least I had him in SC with the captain armband. Some joy is better than none.
But now he's got a holiday it seems, in a week I really need him.
Injuries everywhere it seems. Do they do this on purpose to get extended holidays?
This was looking like an easy bye round to navigate, but now it's up in flames.
Gawn not getting DPP by a bee's sting was the icing on the cake. Really needed that.
Too many rucks and not enough FORs.
To make matters worse, Ratugolea got injured and Briggs has stepped up.
Tempted to dump Gawn as Briggs is outscoring him and will at least make cash.
Anyway, let's see what pans out, but this week is one with all 'unknown, unknowns' popping up.

I’m looking at:
Gawn, Ginbey, Ashcroft
=>
Briggs, Ford, Wardlaw
This gives me $1.283m on cash, which seems a lot, but simply benching Ashcroft would put $744k on the bench, and I wouldn’t normally query that. All three of my outs have high BEs, and the three ins look like good cash cows.
I can go shopping next round and hopefully make some quick upgrades.

Kinda spewing Cincotta got a run. With Mitchell said to be a late exclusion, many are struggling to get 18 out so his 39 is a bonus for them.
Meanwhile, his score (I hope) will be left out of my final tally. His BE is now likely to be about 64, so he's likely going to lose cash.
Might not matter though as looking at who I intend to flip, he's one that isn't worth it and will likely be there as a filler in the end.
As a Pie, my hatred for Carlton is already great, but now it's even more. All Blues almost doubled their HT score, except for Kennedy.
Once again, he started off well and fizzled. 53 at HT and 64 at FT. WTH?
At least he beat Walsh.
Can the Blues get relegated this season?... please!

Solid week despite Walsh. I think his score dropped out of my 18 actually
Interested in trading Sheezel/Ziebell out, not sure if I’ll trade both but definitely at least one. I think with Ratten taking over you’ve basically got to treat the last 3 rounds as the norm for the rest of the season (at least the next few rounds anyway) and that means Sheezel isn’t settled in defence and I don’t think Ratten will have them chip around as much. Add in Hall (and the R15 bye) and I think it’s worth getting them out now while they still hold some value.
Brayshaw has to come in for me, I will also consider Lloyd/Serong.
