Clackerz can quite easily wait on selection with Isaac Smith, as he might not get a run, might depends on if it really was "general soreness". I think you can afford to go Lynch then get Mzungu when he becomes on the cusp the following week.

@Sainter any reason you would go may over lynch? also i think malceski is a massive injury risk so i'd at least wait until he's played a few games befor pulling ther trigger. pedersen has only got games when north are missing a tall so js is not good.
@torcida @weazel ok, was going may over lynch as i was planning for malceski and if went lynch wouldnt have enough for malceski, then was taking out duigan instead of otten/thompson because once again not enough for malceski, and to the point that pederson only gets games when NM are missing talls is a point that i did include in my comment. Malceski coming off knee reco, yes, good point, i was already aware of that though. Duigan will have to be traded to secure Shaw, but how about this....... Otten>>Jacobs (job security?) Thompson>>Gibbs/Enright looking Better?, leaves me with a backline of Goddard/Broughton/Newman/Adcock/Gibbs/Suckling/Lower/Duigan/Buckley/Jacobs as opposed to Goddard/Broughton/Newman/Adcock/Malceski/Suckling/Lower/Buckley/Pederson/Otten first backline looking good/better? thanks
Going for league win, and desperately need to start notching up some victories (im outside top 8). I managed to lose last week despite scoring over 2400! :S I need some help. $19,000 in bank / 14 trades B: Lids, Goddard, H Shaw, Gibbs, Enright, Lower, Batchelor (Heppell, Toy, Tape) M: Swan, Selwood, Pendles, Murphy, Cross, Krak (Buckley, Prestia, I Smith) R: Cox, Smith (Sandi, Derickx) F: Buddy, Fyfe, Pav, Goodes, J Roo, Darling, Siposs (Tapscott, Pitt, Richardson) I like to think my side is quite good. But seems to keep losing. Thinking: Tapscott and Krak out. Question is do i go premium mid or premium fwd? All suggestions welcome!
What to do with Higgins? I have one trade locked in this week, the common Tapscott -> Lynch. I already have Smith in the team, so there doesn't seem to be much reason for me to do a double down-grade this week. After the above mentioned trade, I'll have $290k in the bank. Leaves me with a few options: Go with a premium upgrade in my forward/mid line (candidates to upgrade would be S.McKernan, Krakouer, Yarran, Matera) ... Or bite the bullet and dump Higgins for a mid or forward premium (Boyd/Thompson/GAJ) come to mind. The way I see it, if I don't trade out Higgins this week before his price crashes I'm essentially going to stick with him for the remainder of the year. At least this week his price is still slightly above his starting price. My list is: Lids/Goddard/Shaw/Gibbs/Broughton/Heppell/Batchelor/Puopolo/Stanley/A Otten 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 edit: perhaps a double downgrade round, and bring in Jacobs too
@Lucas - nothing is ever done before teams are announced! With Mzungu I was going to wait to see how long before he gets a full run. The bonus with Smith is the MPP.
@tino - u gunna gain more by gettin another premium fwd.if u swap pav with krak . and trade krak as fwd u can always get roo. it would look something like this krak/tappy > lynch and roo /that way u dont have to play pissof (donno how did u end up with him or pitt and richo
@ Tino Try and finalize your MID's 1st. There's a few downgrade options in the FWD's for Tappy and there's a good selection of MID's to upgrade to. But then again NRoo is a great price at the moment, and it's hard to think his poor form will continue
clackerz so much easier to find a solution for someone else than for ourselfs :S god save us from injuries - but they can make decisions easier
@ torcida - Yes, why is that? I seem to think more clearly when looking at another team! That's why I post up mine at times....
as for me i will be going tappy> lynch then pending fitness of judd swan and rockliff krak(mid)> any suggestions also have selwood and montags
clackerz - exactly let ppl decide my trades that way i can blame everyone but myself lol . jk . its great to hear every1 opinion and ideas but at the end u gotta go with what u think coz noone has spend us much time as us lookin at out own side

I got Pissoff in for Matera a few weeks back because I needed a bit of cash to do something useful with Grimes. Ended up going Grimes - H Shaw which turned out a treat (until last weekend).
ok heres the deal, 14 trades left, 2579 score last round. Do i sit happy or keep the upgrades a coming ? how many trades should i have used by now ? mids and forwards are pretty set, so if i was to trade this week would probably be something along the lines of; grimes > adcock, stanley > enright worth it or better off waiting for malceski to get another game into him ? Or maybe tapscott down to lynch for a little cash ?
