Directly after I used all the extra trades

That’ll learn me for future!

Papi (twice) and Turbo my only major injuries, I think. Oh, and Billy Smith. And Vailea who I've kept the whole season for looping but now he's fit again and will probably end up playing him in the last couple of rounds for his low-teen scores.

Year after year I run out of trades regardless.. too many unnecessary upgrades, or letting go of someone too early, or chasing someone to stay with the pack. Will try to actually conserve trades next year lol

Last couple of years I've been far too trigger-happy with trades, trying to get "perfect" rather than "good enough" options early in the season, and rank has suffered as a result.

And again... one trade left with Cleary and Moses to deal with. Will have to go Cleary to DCE and just hope Moses come back early if the Eels lose a couple and look in danger of missing the 8.

In the same boat. Not ideal.

Did he room with Gagai during origin?

One year I did the absolutely unthinkable. I made it to the last round with one trade remaining. Never been able to do it again.

I think it was probably my best year ever in fantasy. Had to have been to make it that far and still be standing. Lately I just give up once I start only being able to field 15 players with 3 rounds to go.

I’m usually super conservative with trades at the expense of early team value. I find it hard to balance.

I have three left and Cleary to deal with. Thinking Murray but we’ll see.

Got on the cans tonight and decided to go ahead with RFM to Haas after screwing the pooch with my trade out order yesterday. Leaves me 2 to deal with Cleary and maybe Elliot….I usually have heaps. What have I become?

My sweetest friend

Every trade I blow

Makes me rage in the end

I enjoyed the Neighbours thing. Glad I watched it when I did in the late 80s and early 90s but also glad I haven't watched it for 25 years. A quick whisky and then time for bed I think.

Man it hurt reversing the Haas trade again but as the weekend goes on I feel a tad better about it. 3 trades left with Cleary and possibly Elliott issues. Also Lolo with Cotter worries and Max King still in my 17. Here I was thinking I was doing good on trade discipline

Brought in seyfarth to play bird at centre. Does this mean I son kfc

On this note has there ever been a time trading in a player after scoring 100 has worked out?

Maybe Turbo or Cleary 2021 if you timed it right?

Hopefully next year we don't get an entire thread of "Player X scores a banner and is going to average 80"

Cleary and Moses out for me next week and then hoping for the best for the last 4 rounds. This will not end well, 2023 planning begins early

Mahoney last year. If you got him after round 1, you'd have done pretty well. Teddy or Cook or DCE any year. But, yes, hard to think of anyone without existing high pedigree.

Is tapine gunna miss any games for his “punch”?

722/14 (c) Cleary - Robson, Burton & Barnett to play

More good luck, rather than good management, that I can dispose of cleary & moses next week and have 1 trade remaining
