Should I get rid of maxy Gawn now that his BE is ridiculously high for Grundy and save some cash and get him back later when he is cheap or simply keep him? My second ruck is currently goldy and Draper on the bench.
Aluniesheis

only if the price saving get a rookie off field or is a significant upgrade on a different line. You could sell Draper to Williams and use that cash.

I am seriously stuck here and I need some serious help!
Def: Lloyd, Haynes, Docherty, Thurlow, Day, Cottrell (Sholl & B. Williams)
Mid: Neale, Macrae, Mitchell, Menegola, Gaff, Coniglio, Angus Brayshaw, Serong (Wicks & Henry)
Rucks: Grundy, Goldstein (Draper)
Fwds: Whitfield, Petracca, D Martin, Walters, J Martin, Rankine (Woodcock & Mozzie)
Utility: Xerri
Salary: 12K
What Should I do with Day?
Aluniesheis
September 1, 2020 at 7:50 am
William to R3
Sell Draper for any 170 K spud
Day to Houil
Woodcock for 170 K spud
Paul
September 1, 2020 at 1:17 am
What should i prioritise to trade out:
Mills
Lukosius
Brayshaw(Angus)
Simpkin
Aluniesheis
September 1, 2020 at 9:34 am
Brayshaw
Paul
September 2, 2020 at 6:48 am
Thanks.
Went Gus to Gaff.
Steve
September 1, 2020 at 9:34 am
In order Gus, Lukosius, Mills, Simpkin
Paul
September 2, 2020 at 6:46 am
Thanks.
Went Gus to Gaff and Lukosius to Houli
Erin
September 1, 2020 at 7:34 am
Pick 1
Lyons
Ed curnow
Tim Taranto (6 GWS players in my team then).
Will
September 1, 2020 at 8:06 am
Ridley to Houli
Or
Angus Brayshaw to Worpel?
Been big on 1, as I don’t have Lloyd and Laird and think Houli is a top 3 defender, but Brayshaw a concern
Aluniesheis
September 1, 2020 at 9:26 am
2- get Houli in 2 weeks- Brayshaw, even if he goes well, is not to 8 MID. Get him out and VC Worpel
Steve
September 1, 2020 at 9:32 am
Worpel – potentially consider Gaff or Lyons who are around that price point as well
Steve
September 1, 2020 at 9:03 am
I am seriously stuck and need some help!!
Defenders: Lloyd, Docherty, Stewart, Crisp, Thurlow, Weller (Cottrell, Goddard)
Midfielders: Neale, Macrae, Adams, Steele, Duncan, Mitchell, Coniglio, Serong (Wicks, Bytel)
Rucks: Grundy, O’Brien (Williams)
Forwards: Petracca, Whitfield, Greenwood, D Smith, Woodcock, Aarts (Foot, Frederick)
Utility: Ballenden
Cash: 7k
Aluniesheis
September 1, 2020 at 9:33 am
Cottrell to R3 and move Williams to DEF
Woodcock to 170 K spud
That is about 200K- the upgrade Aarts the best mid 500K forward, Martin/Lambert.
Aluniesheis
September 1, 2020 at 9:40 am
Don’t do it- Jezza inconsistent. Houli is a good option. O’Niell scored well last week, but no guarantee to score again.

Really need help with trade ideas. Not sure if i should fix up my def or fix Angus first.
Def: Lloyd, Laird, Stewart,Haynes, Doch, B.Williams, (Ling,Butt)
Mid: Neale, Macrae, Adams,Duncan, zorko, titch, gaff, angus
Ruck: grundy, ROB (Draper)
For: Trac, whit, dusty, b.smith, Simpkin, Riccardi (Woodcock, close)
Utility: Ruscoe
If i was to fix up my def what would my targets be?
Aluniesheis
September 1, 2020 at 1:47 pm
Draper to Williams
Close to 170K
Brayshaw to Hunter
mahomies20
September 1, 2020 at 2:31 pm
Sorry meant to say i have B. Wiliams (WCE) in defence already.
To fix up my def was thinking, Close > Mozzy, Woodcock > 170K, Ling to scrimshaw.
My other options is bring in Zac Williams instead of scrim.
John

1. Brayshaw/Cogs to Gaff/Taranto
2. Brayshaw/Docherty to Zorko/Haynes
3. Brayshaw/Docherty to Steele/Haynes
4. Brayshaw/Cogs to Hunter/J Kennedy
Aluniesheis
September 1, 2020 at 1:49 pm
Try and avoid sideways, I thought of Cogs to Taranto, but no guarantee he beats Cogs by more than 10 every week. Cogs still may go okay against Carlton and Adelaide. Brayshaw to Gaff/Hunter all good.
Bob Barker
September 1, 2020 at 10:42 am
Option 1: O’Brien (Play Draper), Thurlow & Serong >>> Worpel, Laird & Williams (WCE)
Option 2: Draper, Thurlow, Watson >>> Laird, 2x 170k rooks + $79k

1, that’s gets you 2 players you will keep till the end of the season and one making some $$$ for the next couple of weeks before final trades(hopefully) 2 isn’t the right type of trade this late in the season.
texantexan
September 1, 2020 at 11:21 am
Which is the more urgent trade?
MID: Angus Brayshaw -> Worpel/Taranto/Gaff
or
DEF: Thurlow -> Houli
Belly
September 1, 2020 at 11:37 am
I would go with the Def option, there’s a chance Gus goes 85+ I can’t see Thurlow going 60+ and Houli could go 95+ against the shockers.
Aluniesheis
September 1, 2020 at 1:52 pm
My issue as well. Both are equal I think on face value, but Houli next week gets 80, which those mids will beat. The question is, what will Brayshaw get and how much above Thurlow. That is, it the difference you think between them that counts. Brayshaw to any of those mids works.
Belly
September 1, 2020 at 11:46 am
Day out is a big pain… do I keep thurlow and trade Day out instead (Both to Houli) or do I boot thurlow still and field Williams(wce) or Cottrel if named instead?
Aluniesheis
September 1, 2020 at 1:54 pm
Put the emergency on Williams and sell Day. If Williams stinks it up then upgrade Thurlow. If he goes well sell Thurlow down and upgrade another line.
GTrain
September 1, 2020 at 1:03 pm
McDonald->Houli and Parfitt->Brayshaw/Martin worth it? Will have to get McDonald back next week or just go 2 bench players down to 170k as have already done Close->O’Neill
Unknown
September 1, 2020 at 2:38 pm
1. Gaff or Steele/ docherty to Haynes
2. Hunter/ Rookie downgrade
3. Gaff/ bailey smith to greenwood
Harry
September 1, 2020 at 4:50 pm
What do I do with day this is my def
Day, witherden, Lloyd (syd), Hartlett, thurlow, Moore (Col)
Drisc
September 1, 2020 at 6:07 pm
Would appreciate any trade tips
DEF: Crisp, Doc, McDonald, Haynes, Stewart, Lloyd (Sholl, Stoddart)
MID: Macrae, Cogs, Adams, Steele, Mitchell, Oliver, Duncan, Wicks (O’Neill, Porter)
RUC: Grundy, ROB (B. Williams)
FWD: Petracca, Dusty, Greenwood, Brayshaw, Whitfield, Riccardi (Mozzi, Cavarra)
UTL: Watson
1) Bytel > O’Neill [ALREADY DONE]
Bank: $79,000
2) Watson > Valante/Collier Dawkins (whichever plays)
3) Wicks > Jezza??? OR COGS > Merrett
**If O’Neill gets a 60, can cut Wicks down to non-playing MID rookie.
Cheers

September 1, 2020 at 6:32 pm

September 1, 2020 at 8:39 pm
Bugger.. Needed to trade Smith or Riddles to get to Houli, 1st qtr of the 2nd game tonight makes me realise I made a mistake……..

Do we think Tyler Brown will play, because I hope not so I can use him as my captain if I want to loophole.
George
September 2, 2020 at 5:55 pm
Cogs to Taranto
Docherty to Haynes
Wicks to 170k
George
September 3, 2020 at 10:41 am
