Anyone still have Jackson? I made a killer move a couple of weeks ago by turning Grundy into Bont - the game after Bont's big one so he sucked.
This in turn has seen Jackson become my R2. I've got cash to turn him into English however I am wondering whether I should get Sweet while English has another game or two to drop and Sweet could score well for the next month as the solo ruck.
And the other part is whether Jackson is the casualty or someone else? Alarm bells are ringing for Jackson I feel with Darcy back - 16 hitouts, 2 goals and scores 60 odd DT is pretty concerning. So it's hold him, move him back into the forward line, drop some cash but have DPP flexibility in the future or send him packing and get even more cash in hand with Sweet to come in for the next month and upgrade elsewhere next week with that cash.

Kept Jackson as I thought the forward premium standard is so low and the dpp flexibility would be a nice perk and when he was sitting on 33 at QT, felt pretty damn smart. 43 at half time was on track for an 80+ which always makes me feel good, back to back scores of 9 in the 3rd and 4th ended up with another woeful 61.
33/10/9/9 were his quarter breakdowns.
Considering cutting my losses and just moving him out, getting Sweet as an R2 would be perfect for the next few weeks yet English is at a great price so I'm thinking of getting both and Sweet just being to get some cash and maybe bye ruck cover.
--------------
Powell is another alarm bell, 14% CBA against the Crows, he's a trade out if he's not a midfielder. Yet the guys that got the extra time in Philips and Simpkin are pretty meh so it's every chance it goes back to him.
Forward line premiums suck.
Heeney and Flanders everyone should have. Zorko is on that level but if you're me, you're just waiting for the soft tissue injury/suspension or whatever it is that will see him miss games.
Then you're looking at McKay and Miers as the only other guy averaging over 80, neither of which I'm in any rush to bring in. The options are so bad someone like Fyfe at 620k doesn't even seem that bad - I'm in no rush to make that trade.
So I'm just going to ignore doing upgrades in the forward line for now I think...

Had a very good round 8 avoiding injury scores but missing some of the monster scores as well. First entry inside the Top100 for the year. 26 trades and 2 boosts left feel like I'm in a good position trade wise to make a run. Want Zorko but would probably need to upgrade Powell. Is he cooked or worth persevering with?
