    @truly

    your team is looking good for this stage of the season and so you may want to just keep trades in hand. But if you were to make a trade i think there is no point in having knights on bench, so i would look to get rid of Knights and tapscott and get in a prem and a rookie

    Is there much love for Merrett as a mid-priced defender with a bit of a POD (only in 13,000 teams)?

    This week I'm looking to drop Matera for Lynch, and McKernan from my backs, but don't have enough for Suckling, so I see Merrett as the next best option.

    The other option is Matera for Smith / Mzungu (both have ???'s and I already have the MPP link) and McKernan for Suckling, which only brings an extra 10ppg into my team.

    I guess its a matter of cow (Lynch) or points (Suckling). What does everyone think, please?

    (I don't have Tappy, and am only just in the top 5000, so really going for league more than over-all)

    Cheers for a great site!!!!

    Ok think I've got my trades set for this week.

    L.Thompson -> Jacobs
    D. Stanley -> Adcock

    Not sure whether to go Scotland over Adcock. I already have Juddy and Gibbs, but I'm worried about the rnd 19 bye with Adcock, as I have lids and A.Johnson on the bench. Hopefully he's gone by then however!

    Will keep Tappy on the pine as I think bringing in Jacobs is more important than Lynch, will pick up Mzungu for tappy next week.

    My current thoughts:

    If Higgins is named this week, surely I need to dump him. He is due to drop 30k or so.

    I have Tapp but his price isn't moving. I already have I. Smith but I think my forwards need strengthening (Fyfe or Pav).

    Team is:

    Gibbs, Goddard, Dids, Shaw, Fisher, Lower, McKernan (Heppell, Pedersen, Markovic)

    Selwood, Boyd, Boak, Swan, Mundy, Harris (Iles, Hibberd, Swallow)

    Cox, Sandi (Smith, Campbell)

    Franklin, Goodes, Harvey, N Roo, Krak, Higgins, Darling (Tapp, Matera, I. Smith)

    Any thoughts.

    Higgins is playing on my mind too. If he plays, he's going to drop in value considerably, and if he doesn't he is still money on the bench.

    If he is listed to play, I'm torn between giving him the chance to show why I picked and held onto him for so long in the first place - or cutting and running, with a potential to waste a trade if he plays out the season maintaining his acceptable average.

    I have Tapscott, and Smith already on the pine.. trying to determine if I do a double downgrade to get Lynch and Jacobs, or just stick with one and do an upgrade (or Higgins sidegrade) elsewhere.

    My list for this week is:
    Lids/Goddard/Shaw/Gibbs/Broughton/Batchelor/Stanley - (Otten/Heppell/Puopolo)
    Mundy/Swan/Pendles/Murphy/A Swallow/S Higgins - (D Harris/M Hibberd/I Smith)
    Franklin/Pavlich/N Roo/J Darling/C Yarran/A Krakouer/B Matera - (Tapscott/McKernan/C Richardson)

    Cheers Torcida

    Its just a toss-up between getting Suckling (and Mzungu / Smith) this week or Lynch (and maybe someone else somewhere else)... Don't really have anyone else down back, they've all still some time to moo

    My mind is still on Lynch as the next cow, but I'm thinking Suckling will make a good backman.

    Looks like some more time on excel for me ;-)

    JPK - the only problem with them not being ready is there will be hardly any rookies coming after . think we gotta jump on this lot (mzungu/lynch/smith)

    I'm looking at moving injured Tappy for Lynch, who should hold down a bench/emergency spot for the remainder of the year and free up some cash.

    My second move is looking like Higgins -> GAJ.

    Higgo sucks me in every year. I just keep getting burnt. He either goes this week or is a keeper for the year.

    On GAJ, I think he'll have down games, but as captain of a young side, I do NOT see him getting rested or put on ice late in the year like he might have been at the Cats. He has to be there to lead, so I foresee some big games late in the year when others have given up.

    Only trepidation is missing out on Jacobs as a backline downgrade. Not sure there are others on the horizon.

    Torcida - I've been doing pretty well with the rookies, having both North Cams from the beginning (there's some slow burners if I ever saw some), while I got on Jacobs last week (based on the good words coming from Port), and Wright (crows) a few weeks back, who's cruising along nicely! Adding a Lynch / Mzungu / Smith and then a Callinan should probably keep me going for the rest of the year.

    I know I can't take all the trains, its just which one (or ones) work best now, and help me with upgrades in the future (or now - with Suckling). Not really keen on the double D/G much prefer the 1 up 1 down.

    Cheers for your input mate!

    yeah , we will always miss on some of them -
    some ppl were tempted 2 do double downgrade last week (poupolo ,wright and hibb) and this week is the same . i like the balance so i always go one up one down no mather how tempted i get

    Yeah for example I'm missing Jacobs this week, but getting Lynch instead to jump on Hodge who is cheap but won't be for much longer.
    Then next week Mzungu.

    I wouldn't get too obsessed with getting all 3 of Lynch, Jacobs and Mzungu. 2 out of 3 would be sufficient.

    - Hille (bye)
    - J Tippet (with no petrie)

    Well I had no choice so the trades I done were:

    Tapscott - Lynch
    Menzel - Adcock

    If there is a late withdrawal, it better be in the midfield because that's the only cover I have. Even then I don't want anyone out

    Could use some help as I'm a supercoach newbie. Currently undefeated in my league & only looking for a league win. 18 trades left with $116,100 in the bank. Current team is:

    Def - Deledio, Adcock, Goddard, Gibbs, S Martin, Lower, L Thompson (Heppell, Enright & Toy)

    Mid - Pendles, Cotchin, I Smith, J Selwood, Montagna, Liberatore (Rockcliff, Swallow, Harris)

    Ruck - Petrie, Smith (Sandilands, Clark)

    Frwd - Dawes, Riewoldt, Darling, Knights, A Krakouer, Rioli, O'Keefe (Hurley, Tapscott & Matera)

    Was thinking of downgrading Swallow for Jacobs from port so i can move some of my backline players into the midfield when required & upgrading Hurley to a player with a 100+ average. Suggestions?
