Poll above based on suggestions in the discussion topic. Might be a few too many options, but i can narrow down again with another poll if needed tonight.
Threshold question is whether to make any trades at all, given we've only got 11 left.
Of the possible trade-outs, Paix is the most obvious, but Hess was also mentioned and Latrell is a possibility too I guess. If we only trade out Hess, we'd have to play Young in our 2RF and one of Niu, HTF, or Crichton as our 17th man. If we do 2 trades, we can do Paix -> cow and Hess -> someone like JFH, Murray, McGuire, Tevaga, N.Brown. Only other alternative I can see is to fill one of our gaps (HLF) by going Hess -> D.Brown. This would mean Young at 2RF, Brown at HLF, and one of Fogarty, Niu, HTF, or Crichton as 17th man. If we trade out Latrell, we'd have to play Niu or Crichton in the CTRs.
For the record, I'm voting zero trades. Paix is our only red dot so at least gives a chance to loop (I haven't looked at the fixture order yet) and at 18th man for the Broncos is at least in the conversation for getting a run. Hess and Latrell seem like luxury trades at the moment, which I'm not sure we can afford... And I'd probably rather upgrade Fogarty to a true gun at HLF - not sure I want to be stuck with D.Brown for the rest of the year...
