Need some cash generation.

Maybe move Kako up to the midfield, trade someone like Stone or Clohesy for Tunstill? Could bite the bullet and just trade out El-Hawli again but I can't imagine it generates a lot of cash.

TDK down to Briggs is a potential move but Briggs has underperformed, is Flynn an option?

You’re absolutely not getting Tunstill, that dries up your cash gen even more.
I would suggest downgrading a rookie to hopefully a rook named next week (Boxshall or Smilie) and getting long to start that cash gen again

Hoping Garcia is dropped next week to use him as a forward loop then will have a loop in each line.

Glad I punted TDK for Xerri this week. Means I can now return to one up one down.

Thinking Davidson & Prior > Rook + Whit/NWM or Rook + Bowey and save cash to upgrade again with Garcia/Moraes cash the following week.

Kako to mids is a good idea.

Stone has bought himself another couple of weeks in your side - even if he drops 40s, he's making you money.

As I mentioned in the other thread, you've got five red dots on your bench. Looking at your rookie combinations, Prior/Bice/Busslinger is fine for now, Moraes/Kako/Ashcroft will dry up soon, Stone could come onto the field in a pinch for Davidson, though you would probably swing Ashcroft FWD first. I'd be looking at a MID rookie, pending available options.

Plan B is TDK down to Goldy/Flynn and Moraes to Long per the other thread (I said Davidson in the other thread but Moraes has lost money this week).
 
Last upgrade week, this week ....need to replenish bench for the Byes
Feel it will be the same - got Trainor and Reid flickering the flame of cash gen still but any breeze will easily snuff it. Bice needs a good one, is not a problem, but I can see it ahead from here.

Clohesy needs to be gone - however Lindsay and I both valued his red dot status this week. Well done Ted. Moraes has officially stopped and "it's time to go, ...............Christian". Keep up the good work Longy!

Lash, Davo, Maric, Cleary, Garcia and Stone have become Forwards Lite. Hu......go, please! Ross's words, not mine, but I hear ya Ross. Davo has another tricky game with Bulldogs about to rocket off to Mars. Would love three trades this week!
 
Is Chad Warner an option or do we think he'll get the Bedford tag next week

Stone is still generating cash. Don't trade into Briggs. He was heavily rested in the last game, so he might be playing sore. If you're trading TDK, it's sideways to Marshall, or upgrade to Xerri or Gawn. If you trade to anyone else, it's just another upgrade you're going to have to do later.

El-Hawli isn't worth trading tbh as he hasn't gone up much and might be more useful as a red dot at this stage.

Kako cannot be fielded. His scores are in the 40s. Stone has a better chance of a fieldable score.

I think the most important thing is to get Moraes or Davidson or Prior off field. If you get rid of Prior, he needs to be the upgrade, because Busslinger isn't fieldable as we're not sure of his JS. I wonder if you can keep Prior for another round, and trade Moraes and Davidson in a 1-up, 1-down. Field Stone in the forward line and upgrade the other in the midfield. If you have enough cash, can go Long or underpriced premo, like Chad Warner or someone else.

There's not a lot of cash generators at the moment.

I was definitely considering bringing Long in this week, I can always do Davidson down to someone like Cleary (will still be a net of around 200k) I reckon, unless there's a better cheap forward to bench.

Target Moraes and Prior to rookies with lowest BE and best upgrade with brakeable BE
 
Feel like I can leave Prior in a week or two longer, I think Davidson and Moraes are more important to move on, how does something like this sound?:

Moraes > Long
Davidson > Cleary or another cheap forward

Your call - what do you expect from Prior?
1745746830530.png

Goes up to maybe 535, , maybe similar BE - what do you expect?

Using Prior and Davo gets you a genuine upgrade and best rookie

Fair call then, you're probably right, Moraes can always wait until next week.

It might be Moreas - identify what you want first, play around with the $ options and get up to the best available, not the just good enough one. If you want Long, by all means go there, might be a bit late though for the best value available and money maker

I did think that if I do the Prior and Davidson trades it means I can go up to someone like Bowey or Noble in the backline which would make up for Holmes and his lacklustre score. Defence has probably let me down the most this year, I think I can manage a midfield with Moraes with the premiums I already have.
 
Nuts for still liking Nic Martin over Noble Ash or Bowey?

Still got that seagull role and unlike them he’s actually done a 107 season before (last year). The rest are still unproven as premos

Also got that 3 game run at marvel into Richmond coming up. Should be pretty good
