Day throws a spanner in the works. I don’t want zero defensive cover.

Looking like my trades will be Brander/ Starcevich out and Premo/ Day in. This means sacrificing Simpson who was very impressive. Not sure how sustainable it is, with Duncan and Narkle both going down early. Would love to have him but I reckon I’d prefer the cover rather than the cash

With Rookie falling faster than black death victims, I just hope Budarick can get his BE

Ceglar has outgrown his usefulness and I have to trade.

TRADE 1
OUT - Ceglar
IN - Rankine

OUT - Starcevich
IN - Lloyd

or

TRADE 1
OUT - Starcevich
IN - Simpson

TRADE 2
OUT - Ceglar
IN - Lloyd

We
ceglar -> simpson
starcevich -> day

double upgrade week after

will have round 600k in bank
As much as I wanted an upgrade, this had to be the play for me I reckon. Will suffer next week but 550k itb should hopefully fund 3 premos.

Day and Simpson passed the eye and scoring test...they look too good to pass up. Plenty in the bank then for a double upgrade the next week.

The big decision for me is do i ride out Ceglar or boot him...obviously i want to boot him like any owner would. I think the sensible decision is to ride it out unless he gets dropped. He is capable of 100 plus scores this season so I don't want to lock in a loss if I have enough cash to upgrade around him.

Think Simpson is a lock , Day is probably better balance short/medium term for my team than Aarts (this round) so will mean delaying bringing in a premium defender.

Now just hope McPherson , Rankine , Stephens , Stoddart , Warner don't all go 90+ and prove must haves as well.

Brown - > Simpson
Starcevich - > Day

monitor Hurn , Ryan , Short or wait for Stewart & Zac Attack

Bailey Smith , Bont & Duncan all in the target list

At this stage add me to the Starcevich and Ceglar to Day and Simpson group.

Almost dropped Ceglar this week, replaced Naismith instead as Ceglar was actually playing. He is well out of form, as is most of the team. Yes he could potentially turn it around, but barring higher priorities that will likely show up, he has to go.

Starcevich to Day
Brown/Budarick to Simpson

Leaves me with around 300k in the bank for (hopefully) two upgrades in R8.

Simpson and Day for two bad rookies depending on who gets named. Lots to choose from! Day is a gun but very skinny.

Day looked very impressive but the Hawks don't have a great track record in giving their rookies an extended run of games. When is Scrimshaw supposed to be back from injury?
