    Goldi sucks. Rookies suck. Parker is awesome and I got a 2160, which feels about par I reckon.

    Guess we'll see when it opens. How'd you go?

      2050 even for me, and have slid to around the 2,500 mark overall

      I am another who traded Fyfe to Selwood, I have been very conservative with trades so have 26 left and will be planning on using 4 in the next 2 weeks.

      At this stage it will be any 2 of about 7 or 8 rookies to be culled for J Smith (if selected) and a premium to be determined, then either a double downgrade or 1 down/1 up then next week

      2,116 this week and got a rise overall by 1,844. Better than last two rounds.

      Rucks was my main let me down this week (Gold/Martin) with Joey, Hall & Priddis.

      Early look at trades I think in order are Shaw, Rocky and D Martin. Just need to work out cash!

      2237 this week to jump up to 1776 overall, new recruits over the last 2 weeks have done the business so far (Shaw last week) the dynamic duo this week Selwood and Danger. Time to cull a few dons Dea is done & Parish look liked he might get a week off.

      Off topic I know but 2259 in AFL Fantasy this week 103rd overall :)

      2 replacements JJ & Fyfe but through some DPP magic Weiterling became Danger = timely!

      Gee, a good week getting almost 2300 and now my overall rank jumped massively to be a respectable top 2k. Hopefully this is a sign of improvement! :D

      Looks like a double downgrade week, judging by how many players are on the bubble.

      Good question. You could lose ~40-50 points per player/week if doing too much downgrading and the longer you leave the upgrading the less likely you are to make up the points in the long run.

      2300 and a jump to 709th overall.

      Could have picked up an extra 38 with better bench selection and Cpt on Parker would have given me another 42.

      Battled to 2,109. Had the C on Gawn as I thought the Dees would win and he would dominate with the roof closed. New guys Selwood was a positive, along with, can't believe I'm saying this after his start to the season, Barlow, Dusty, Danger and Heater. Not sure if ill do a double down with Smith and Cox or either one of Smith/Cox with Parker. Time to cull Dea and ATM.

      cant believe you blokes are upset with your 2000+ scores... I got 1756. No that is not a typo. Yes that is my worst score in about 5 years.
      weitering 12, (rance benched), sam Mitchell/zaharakis/liberatore/mills/Hall/kade kolodjashnij/byrne-jones in the 70s, kerridge/papley/marcus adams in the 60s, tipungwuti/stringer/tom McDonald in the 50's. Captain on Goldstein due to poor management.
      could be my year done right there

      Yep, that's a tough one. Bit of a dilemma for those with Weitering, Laird and any other missing defender (e.g. Ruggles, Rance, etc). I feel like I am trading for what should be upgrades, to just tread water. Its also encouraging/forcing trades on some lines where I really don't want to make them, in view of what opportunities I might give up elsewhere.

      I fold - your straight flush of outs beats my full house of Weitering, Laird sitting on the defenders bench this week with Suckling on the fowards.

      But this round, I am going all in.
      I'm keeping the above on the bench. My backline this week will consist of Adams, AMT, Dea, M Brown (Ess), Hartley, Wagner - no cover.

      Why - the intent is to upgrade Libba into Parker & one of Mills/Hewett/Oliver/Davis down to J Smith (pending team selection),
      ( I am 40K short of a straight upgrade of Libba to Parker - straight up alternatives are Titchell, Coniglio, Hunter, Viney)

      I think the 3 defenders I have that are not playing will still be in the best 15 or so at the end of the season and that it is not worth upgrading the defenders I do have just yet as the points just aren't there. (Basically - who to?)
      In terms of season Average so far, after trades this week my M6 will be Priddis, M7 - D Wells & M8 - probably Mills.

      So - who gets the chop?
      1. Trade Libba only into one of the alternatives. Forget about Smith & Parker this round.
      2. Trade Libba & Davis for Parker & Smith.
      3. Trade Davis & Dea/Weiterng/AMT to upgrade a Defender & grab Smith
      4. Do nothing
      5. Go for Duckwood instead of Parker to ease the bye situation
      TD - Other
