Looking at my trades up until round 7 getting blokes out of my starting team it's easy to see why my rank is shit
Traded out Vailea, Crichton, Bullemor, Mahoney, Katoa, Amone, Clune, Paulo and Sexton for a grand total of 7k made
Crichton and Mahoney I think were just bad luck with the way they started the year but the rest I probably could have done better. Crichton was a toss up with Ipap and Mahoney was a late in after Cleary missed round 1. Would have been Grant if he wasn't suspended round 1
Vailea I wasn't really sold on but didn't trust the base price bench middle (Ming). Should have followed the pack and gone with the highly owned guy.
Bullemor there were signs preseason + a few injuries that he was going to get the starting edge for a while. Didn't work out but probably a pick I made again
Amone was starting half with good job security and priced below his lowest ever starting score in the position. This is one I'd probably pick again, Amone just got it going a little too late for me to benefit
Clune was a good pick and was going to slow burn to 150k before getting injured. Long term average as a starting half was enough to make some bank
Paulo didn't really trust his job security but thought Rabbitohs would start slightly better than they did and he might get a few early tries
Katoa was a toss up vs Martin vs Fermor and I think I ended up with the worst option.
Sexton passed the eye test, played first bye and had the ceiling to be a cut priced keeper. Started well first 2 weeks then fell off a cliff. Would probably make this move again
tl;dr lot of 50/50 decisions went wrong, timing wrong on a couple but a few were definitely on me
