Is Macrae + Tadams + rookie in for williams + dempsey + sharp completely ridiculous?

Or should I just get Walsh like everyone else will.

Am I crazy for thinking Williams D’Ambrosio and Samders for May Dale and Garcia?

Assuming Young named, Williams Cadman and D'ambrosio are my outs. Garcia and 2 premos in, Walsh very likely to be one of them, but I'm also very tempted by Adams at the price as long as I can still pick up a Bont/Trac/English the following week

Current plan is
Out: M D’Ambrosio and Z Williams
In: S Walsh and K McAuliffe

No boosts remaining so Thomas and Cadman cannot be dealt with yet. Time to switch Daicos, Martin and Roberts down back.

Pretty straightforward this week. Boost #2
Cadman -> Garcia
Williams -> McAuliffe
Sharp -> Walsh

How confident are you about McAuliffe? Is his midfield role good? And does he actually keep his spot in the Tigers team for the foreseeable future?

You would think Hopper and Prestia back over next two weeks could place him at risk. 12 possessions in last game vs WCE, he is no Harley Reid!

Rookies look tough. Bigoa and Drury disappointing scores. KDawson likely back in round 8, Corr had a good game.

Tunstill may be a look if not the sub.

On in's. Dale looks a cheap weak defender, Is Taylor Adams a top 6, low TOG again. Macrae feels wait one week, risk is role.

Walsh value and comes with annual injury risk.

Outs - Williams and maybe Pink to cover Stewart donut. Massimo, Dempsey or Sharp at risk for upgrade.

Ins - Bulldogs Garcia and maybe Tunstill. Maybe Walsh or Houston.

Blerg, $18k short of Williams and Dempsey to Walsh and Garcia.

Can boost out Carroll to get there, but who to? Bulldogs Garcia, Biggie or McAuliffe? None of those fill me with great confidence tbh :confused:

Supercoach is such a frustrating game.

Is Comben playing Intercept Defender or 2nd Tall Forward?
Will Bevo continue to Bevo Sanders?
Is Walsh the premium bargain of the season or will his back fall apart from carrying Carlton like Cripps' did?

Another fun trade week...

About 12 "issues" in my side :LOL:
Young - Have to assume misses at least 1... Hopefully not 2-3 but realistically 2 if there's any actual hammy strain and not awareness...
Stewart - Will hold.. just misses the 1 week you'd think
Massimo - Subbed out for no reason.. :cautious: preferable hold.. Can at least sit on the mid bench this week as no room on the defender bench!
Williams - Actually sounds a chance to play... Otherwise I have to trade him as not going to cop a donut! BE is at 62 anyway...
Pink - Wouldn't have counted him as an issue but need all hands on deck in defence this week!
Sharp - Wanted to sell last week, at least got his $35K increase. Still want to sell, BE 72. Others may keep him in again..
Clark - $154K and a BE of 75... He's a hold with other issues and no $ to be made.
Jackson - I want to prioritise trading him out (BE: 141) but he may escape yet again... No interest in holding for the season.
McKay - The least of my worries after a 101... In an ideal world though, doesn't last much longer...
Darcy - BE is only 32, he can stay for now...
Cadman - BE is only 36, he can stay for now but I'd cash him in if things work out well somehow with all the other issues.

On the buy radar:
Ryan - Not really on my radar at his price, Daicos more of a priority.
Daicos - Have to assume I will be grabbing him this week. I still don't think his fixture is that great, but needed a body in defence (if Williams misses) - he makes the most sense to me.
Mullin - Not really on my radar but if he returns straight to the AFL team he's on the bubble this week.
Merrett - Too expensive for Athomas's Aces...
Butters - Ditto but great fixture coming up so he's a chance for me this week.
Steele - Will probably drop $ soon so I will wait and re-assess then.
Green - BE of 183 so not this week (or next) but keeping a spot for him I'd imagine...
Walsh - The decision of the week. I honestly had no interest but the $70K difference to Butters obviously makes a big difference. I grabbed him at the worst time last year (Round 10 from memory) so was burnt then. Can the back issues be ignored? Not sure...
McAuliffe - Big dillemna if he's named for Wednesday's game, as I would prefer Tunstill I think but won't know....
RGarcia - Not on the bubble and I expect Libba comes straight in anyway... But on the radar nevertheless.
Tunstill - Bailey still out, role probably isn't great (no CBA's) but on the bubble and I rate him. It's him or McAuliffe (or Mullin) so I will have to grab one.

It's a minefield deciding what trades, so will wait for further news on Young/Williams but I expect 1 of Tunstill/McAullife + Daicos will be my ins, a boost to Butters/Walsh possibly but may not be able to afford it anyway.

Turns out I can afford Walsh + macrae + Garcia for the same trio. Looks good to me!

Initial Sunday night trades -

Cadman, Massimo and Williams to Walsh, Rowell and Garcia.

Rowell is expensive but has an amazing draw coming up and Walsh I’m happy to run the gauntlet on.

degoey is also a possibility at his price to bank cash for petracca, Bont etc coming up.

Probably just Sharp and Williams to Wlash and McAuliffe. Will have a look at Howes on Wednesday as cover for Stewart and then decide if I boost Reid out to get a DPP get back. Only used 2 boosts so far so if there is the potential of a genuine points gain I’ll think about it but would need to be a significant upside to use a boost and trade on it.
