I’m all for upgrading as quick as possible. So this week I’ll have 23 trades left and 1 Boost. Others are more conservative and save trades and hope for carnage later in the season.
Also dependant on cash generation and league versus overall.
I’m upgrading Wines and Horne-Frances to Bontempelli and Walsh. A week early on Bont but I’ve done the maths and the savings on Bont next week will only be offset by the loss on Wines.
Playing around with trading Grundy who isn’t a keeper and using Jordan Sweet as second ruck for a period of time. Sweet can clearly score well as a solo ruck and I think his base scoring over the next 4-5 matches will be better than other rookie options this week.
Grundy vs Sweet is going to be maybe 20 points difference per round
That means I need to get 20 points extra out of my upgrades a week to offset. So getting a rookie mid like Sharp off the field vs playing a premium mid needs to make up the difference.
So Clarry is $476K of the back of a 140+ score, who’d have taken this at the start of the season?
How many trades is everybody on? I’m on 25 and considering a triple trade this week - abit ambitious? Have a few potential outs with injuries (Williams, Yeo, Green) so will probably have to wait this week.
