Do i need to pay for that advice, that was alot more thorough than i was expecting.
Cheers REB!
Yes looking back on paper, some trades were shocking, i tryed to work the system to make money and it worked me back.
Ok, i will sit tight for a few weeks, Brown to bench, Pod for a run, Gram for a run and either Martin or Hanneberry to bench, Krakeour in from bench and either Ladson or maybe even Dale Morris to bench as he is struggling.
Hopefully my scores pick up so Div VI can catch Div II !!
REB's advice was spot on. You are trying to fix things too quickly. Sideways trades will kill you. I allow maybe 1 or 2 max per year - 1 before round 3 and 1 if it's spare close to finals. Other than that, I stick with my players unless they get injured or there's an obvious problem a la Tippett this year.
If you burn trades trying to catch up now you may scramble to a par with your league but then fall away in the last 8 weeks when you've run out of trades. You'd be better off trying to win those late league games through having spare trades.
Dangerfield out for a month.
My bench of Pod will cover Browny if he goes down, but Hitchcock might struggle back into side.
Do i trade????
At this stage no, vossy has declared browny a certain starter for bris, so allow pods to cover for danger. Golden rule which i have taken on board, never trade until teams have been announced. Make your call on friday re danger.
