Hi Row,
Who would you start out of Hallahan and Langdon this week?
Im leaning towards Hallahan. While the Hawks still have players out he is getting decent game time in the middle and should be able to get some good numbers against GWS. If the Hawks are up plenty they could sub a Hodge type and let the kids play. Or am i just being biased?

Another question for you mate 
Thoughts on Tex walker ? Is he a viable F6 ? Im actually looking at him for F7 but if the Sc gods throw up a few nasties he may have to be F6 . Or would i be better going shenton

Simple question this time around Row
While everyone is jumping on board, looks like I will be missing out on Shenton.
His DPP and good job security makes him a really tasty prospect but I can't see myself trading in Shenton over Barlow this round.
Can I afford to miss him?
Looking at my team, I have 11 trades left and more than $380,000 left in the kitty.
If Barlow comes in this week, I only need 1 more FWD upgrade (Parker), one more MID upgrade (Stevie J) and 2 more DEF upgrades (Swallow & XXX).
Players like Suckling and Tyson should hold their spot, will be last to go and shouldn't cost me too much to upgrade.
You reckon I can give Shenton a miss?
It's either Polec > Barlow or Lloyd > Shenton and playing Polec on ground then do a double upgrade next week.

I think Birchall will score as well, or even better than Hurn, and is less likely to miss games from here. You would still take Hurn if dollars are a concern, and if you can see you can use that little bit extra next week, otherwise I'd take Birchall. I'd probably use Sutcliffe if you can, as Langdon is more likely to score higher of the two, and their B/E's are about the same.
Good luck

Hi mate,
With Langford now out it looks like I'll cop a donut if I do my planned trades.
Lloyd ---> Shenton
Langdon ---> Fyfe
I am looking to get Hanley and Riewoldt in within the next couple of weeks, and considering Fyfe has a BE of 113 would I be better going Langdon to Hanley, then next week Langford to Fyfe hopefully, but I think that would also require another downgrade somewhere. And resulting in holding off on Riewoldt for another reek or two which might not be great.

if i use 2 trades this week im down to 11.
so baring that in mind is saving 100k on getting wingard instead of boomer or gray worth the 20 points less. EG I'd have $300k insead of $200k spare. It meand I can turn Taylor inot a M8 in possibly one trade. At 200k I'd have to use 2.
Im so stuck lmao. Boomer low b/e doing my head in. I dont want to pay overs for him in a few weeks (if i upgrade higgins)
Basically I want you to say "Zim trade _____ in or i wont be friends anymore" lmao

Hi Rowsus
Carnage this round so I really need some advice. I am literally on my knees begging!!
I have traded Lloyd to Shenton which leaves me with $143K and 13 trades. I was originally going to trade Polec to Watson leaving around $50K to put towards a Langford upgrade next week (or the one after). I was also considering a Higgins to Buddy trade next week which shouldn't cost too much....but I digress.
Now, considering all the outs this week I have Swan on the bench so Taylor comes on the field which is not ideal but no biggie. My main concern is the added donut in defence seeing as I copped the Enright one with no bench cover. Do I stick with the Polec to Watson trade considering their respective B/Es mean that Polec is likely to go down while Jobe goes up in price? Or do I trade Langford to Hurn which saves me a donut but only leaves me with $10K in the bank. This will make it quite hard to upgrade Polec as planned and I may be forced to keep him a bit longer until I can build up the bank balance again.
I am really only going for leagues as I have Buckley's of overall realistically. I was projected to lose the SCS Div 5 match anyway so thinking I should just wear this loss and trade in Watson as planned. Can you please advise - maybe you have a better solution for me?!! Cheers and sorry for the ramble!

sorry for the late reply. Given the situation, I think it's just best to keep the "integrity" of your plan and team, and go Polec to Watson. The potential for the gap in their prices to grow so much this week, could cause a chain reaction of delays and/or compromised trades. When you look back on it, the havoc would all have been caused by the Desire to avoid a 65 point donut, and could easily cost you more than that in points and dollars if you try to twist things to fit now. Stick to your plan, go Polec ---> Watson.
Good luck
Reading between the lines, you really want Boomer, and why not? He's in form, and North's draw is about to get pretty easy.
Zim, trade Boomer in, or i won't be friends anymore!
