@NSD: Nice when trades pay off! Probably just Wingard to OldMac for my brother this week. Hoping Fyfe plays and Ablett is back in two.
I still can't get that spinning circle thing out of my head . Every time I look at that leaderboard I feel traumatised lol Will it ever end? Will I have to put up with this for another 20 odd weeks? Hehe
for rd 4 my dad went fyfe to sidebottom and miles to mcdonald (in hindsight ledger or wingard would have been better)
i notciced the vast majority of "league 2" coaches have pendels as VC, it will be interesting if he scores around 110-120 whether they are happy with that? EDIT - 140 - nice- hopefully everyone manages to pull off the vice-cpatin/captain loophole correctly!
with rischitelli confirmed as an out i am hoping A Hall is called up for GCS and my Dad doesnt have to burn a trade just to save a fwd donut !
I am used to being able to reverse trades already and forgot a golden rule I've stuck by for the last couple of years. I've been very disciplined in waiting until the very last hour before lockout to do my trades; however last night I went and traded Hall out of my team - and it now looks like he will be a late call up, either for Riscitelli or Swallow. No way would I have traded him tonight if I had have waited. But not to worry.
Round 5 SENSATION! I think I can lay claim to one of the worst trade moves ever: Out: Ablett In: Ziebell (scored 50pts). But Wait!!! I made Ziebell Captain
Bad week for almost everyone!<img src="http://tooserious.net/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/g15q4-round5.jpg" />

@GaryReal - can't beat that trade, what a shocker, but I did lose over 90 points by having Cameron on the bench and D. Smith in my team.

Alright now that is more like it! Slowly climbing the beanstalk! Our trades were Gablet to Barlow, and then Hall to Ballantyne. One worked and one didn't (but should this week against the suns!). Cox to HayMac the week before really paid of this week too @ 140sc! I'm thinking Haymac & giles is the best combo in the league at the moment, whatever you spend. This week... time to clean up another decision that we started with and we didn't like... Bye Bye Cloke!

a rough attempt to see how many trades the leading 10 teams have used (and who they have brought IN) STOWIE (3) = Shiel/Jmac/Treloar IN, Wingard/Miles/Hall OUT HEB (3) = Greene/Treloar/Jmac IN, WInagrd/Csmith/Miles OUT NISEKO (4)= Hurn/Shiel/Roughy/Trelaor IN, Shaw/Miles/Fyfe/Hall OUT PHILS (4) = Scotland/Firrito/Greene/Treloar IN, Shaw/Broughton/Miles/Paine OUT TTREX (4) = Waters/Clarke/Masten/Jmac IN, Broughton/Lake/Wingard/Miles OUT CB (5) = Geary/Clarke/Treloar/Murphy/Greene IN, Shaw/Broughton/C Smith/Wingard/Miles OUT WL (5) = Ebert/Jmac/Treloar/Kreuzer/Sidebottom IN, Wingard/Csmith,Miles/Cox/Fyfe OUT CC (6) = Clarke/Treloar/STanton/Murphy/Greene/Jmac IN, Shaw/Broughton/Ablett,Wingard/Miles/Csmith OUT SH (6) = Clarke/Ziebell/Gibbs/Jmac/Hmac/RStanley IN, Smedts/Csmith/Ablett/Miles/Cox/Paine OUT WW (6) = Suckling/Hurn/Shiel/Jmac/Nroo/Treloar IN, Shaw/Broughton/Csmith/Miles/Fyfe/Hall OUT
Damn. Nice work TTH <blockquote> WL (5) = Ebert/Jmac/Treloar/Kreuzer/Sidebottom IN, Wingard/Csmith,Miles/Cox/Fyfe OUT </blockquote> God my trades so far look real crappy. Makes me feel like hitting the reverse on this weeks trades(again!).
