It really depends on how the rest of your team is. If you only have 1-2 players that you see as must trades right now then you should trade him, but if you're like me and have 3-4 players that need to be traded then you probably can't afford to use a trade to trade him out

I am happy with the 2293 I scored this week, which was enough for me to not lose a league game, as well as the 6300's I'm sitting at overall. However, I have some trade issues this week. I have decided to trade Wells to Rich, but then I have Goodes, Miller, Cripps and Lamb. I just can't afford to trade Goodes to Hunt, so my options are:
Goodes to Brown (pocket 100K+ and could actually be fine because I have 4 guns and McIntosh, Saad and Oxley as my defenders)
Cripps to NVB
Miller to McGrath/Saad (put Bonts/Swan in the middle)
Lamb to McGrath/Saad

Some decent scores around. Very happy with 2334, should have been more, had to deal with cockatoo's 5. Brings me up to 60 overall.. Side note, Too Serious Divi 4 up to 51.. Good effort gents

Good to see some decent scores this round. I had to roll the dice with Selwood as captain to try and have a POD over my opponents fyfe as captain in my cash league, which has cost me 100 points in the end. Because of that ended up with 2172, which I am still happy with compared to last week.

Now the decision of whether to keep Ablett or not.....

I got a bit too clever for my own good. After Sloan (my VC) and Oxley's performances I put Dalgliesh on the field and made him captain, moved Newnes onto the bench (no E on him as I was sure he would not top Oxley). Happily cruising along until I got home from golf Sunday afternoon to watch the Hawks/Don's and thought, 'hang on, there's no Gibson!'. Missed out on Newnes 90, ended up at 2142. Happy enough with the team structure and performance despite that. Not thrilled that I have now left 210 points on the bench (McIntosh last week, Newnes this week). Looks like I need to get my priorities straight:fewer social activities and more SC. :-(

2237 with Fyfe as captain and Gibbo's withdrawal giving me Oxley's 116. Happy with that.

I reckon this week will be Gaz > Bonts and Goodes > B Smith.

Well I think Guy McKenna and Brett Ratten can hold their heads up high after the starts to this season for Carlton and Gold Coast. Brenton Sanderson less so...

I am thinking the same Nick but I also want to swap Cripps for NVB. Perhaps, Smith will be rested against Melbourne after being KO'd?

I took the punt on a Defence of Adcock, Harry O, Newnes & Harry Taylor + two rookies with a view to upgrading whoever failed come Round 3 when everything was supposed to be a little clearer. Now they are all averaging 80s or thereabouts so I dunno what to do.

TU: Harry Taylor > Brodie Smith
TD: Jack Newnes > Tom McDonald + bank cash

Or should I just back in my current squad?

Scored 2200 on the dot for the second week in a row, ranked 1500ish, happy with that.

Contemplating trading Ablett --> NVB and Goodes --> Oxley to ensure I get the right cash cows, obviously would have a stack of money and the right cash cows then to do some faster upgrades than others perhaps?... Monday thoughts, may be very poor ones.

TU: Potentially a smart idea
TD: Pretty pointless and don't do it.

Might be a bit early to pull the trigger on get rid of any of them IMHO. All had much better 2nd games than first. Plus, B Smith was knocked cold on the weekend, so even if he gets to the field this week, highly likely will still be below his peak. My 2 cents only, of course.

Thoughts on Taylor Hunt? Seems to be getting a lot of the leather and playing on the ball.

Goodes has to go and I have Saad, Oxley and MacIntosh already. What are other cheap/mid options? Josh Bruce from the Saints?

TU : Goodes > Taylor Hunt
TD : Goodes > Josh Bruce

Or other thoughts?
