    Know this bloke is a good player and all but S/C wise question is.
    Is he a keeper or try and turn him into a downgrade, upgrade else where ?.

    Shame about Grimes, i thought he was a chance to score well if melbourne continues winning games. Im looking at leaving him on the bench until i do my midfield upgrades, some might say thats a stupid move but if i upgrade/downgrade him this week, its another week before i get a premium into my mids. With only 70k in the bank, i cant afford to upgrade grimes and a rookie mid in the same week, so i look at it this way, either way i go, im going to have the same amount of premiums in my team regardless.

    That f*cks my plan, dammit! But I can take some consolation in hoarding trades.

    If only there were multiple Deledios.

    I should really learn from my mistakes, the G-Unit has stung me every season with LTI's.

    Grimes -> H Shaw / J Adcock... Thoughts?

    Same same . I have had him all the way bringing him in for his 1st game . Paid 117K or 217K from memory was so confident on his ability but Grimey & Higgup are not going into my team again............No matter how "Cheap" they are.

    Geez, Grimey Grimes! Had him as a 'keeper'. So really need to sideways/upgrade to another keeper. My short list is : Newman, Adcock, Fisher, Murphy(Dogs), & Merrett. Have about &#36;460k to spend. Scarlett would be great, but I already have Enright, (sigh), so that's not going to happen as that will screw me come round 22. Tempting to replace Grimey with another Demon, but can't find one! Trying to steer clear of Ess, Carl, Geel & Nth. An Eagles defender would be ideal. Nicoski, anyone???

    Hmmm, I will have to toss up between Shaw, Enright or maybe Newman to replace Grimes.

    But this week I was planning to upgrade my midfield, or possibly bring Chappy in my forward line. Regardless, I think I was going to be looking at Chappy or Selwood this week. Not sure what to do now, with Grimes out.
    Got &#36;200,000 in the bank.

    I'm moving more towards Shaw, but Enright's dropped price is enticing as well.

    Shame about Grimes though. Although the backline hasn't been churning out the points we were hoping, he was still quite solid. Hope he recovers and goes well and injury free next season
