    Ok i've nailed it down to these guys, only going for finals.
    Suckling, Johncock, Murphy, Adcock.
    Suckling will use every cent I have the others will give me a bit of room to move come general soreness. And I just have a good feeling about adcock.
    Current backs
    Gibbs, Fisher, Goddard, Delids, Birchall, Enright, Heppell (Lower, Jacobs, Toy)

    Planning on trading lower, so must move this week.

    Thoughts, help??

    I'd trade Heppell over Lower. He (pell) has the bye in R24 - and that's where the "soreness" & "resting" comes into play. You may have more than expected, so you can't trade your way around it if it pans out tha way, and you might have to use back-up rookies to play. Heppell will be no use in the final round if that happens, because of his bye means he can't cover the overloaded amount of players that miss to be rested. (I feel like I'm repeating myself here, so I best move on to Lower :D )
    Lower can at least come onto the ground as a potential D7. If you trade Lower, you'll be playing Jacobs or Toy in GF week.
    As for trading in, if you want to narrow it down to the cheaper 3 because of Suckling's price knocking off all of your remaining cash, then I'd go; (Battle of the cocks ;) )
    1. Adcock
    2. Johncock
    3. Murphy

    Not a fan of Murphy, maybe Johncock should go first, but I see a lot of 50 games coming from him, while Adcock looks like getting back to his 100+ game performances.

    Hope I helped!

    EDIT: Suckling isn't worth using up all of your cash for - he has a lot of 115s then follows up with 65-80, too inconsistent at times.

    Johncock or Suckling. Stay away from injury riddled Adcock and Murphy has the bye and really isnt a premium... Id go Johncock personally.

    The last few weeks I have been saying 'Last defender' that was until we lost Shaw and then Newman! So annoying but lucky I still have trades... Johncock/Suckling for mine... Adcock could be back in business with more time in the midfield....

    can you afford Broughton? He is killing it lately being on the ball. I have a similar dilemma and need to replace Newman with someone other than Lids/Gibbs/Goddard/Adcock/Broughton or Fisher. Thinking Enright (great run home but bye), Birchall, Hurn (POD, cheap and great run home)
