Round 11 trades (Fantasy)

[Blue and Gold Blood]

Well thank god the byes are over and i can get back to the usual downgrade cash cow upgrade to premo routine.

My two trades for round 11:
Griffiths --> Simpson
Lloyd --> Parker

 

[doona]

I will change it guaranteed before lockout but at this stage:

macrae > bartell (dpp getting langford to the mid bench)
wines > JK3 (maybe time for pendles rather then JK3)

That leaves me with only f6 (t.walker) & m8 (tyson/polec...one will start) and the rest premos......

The one thing I am wrestling with, weather to get in a back and start tex, or get in a forward and start langdon.

 

[Deeskys]

Cunningham > C.Beams
Lloyd > Daulhaus (will change if Lloyd gets named?)

 

[Blue and Gold Blood]

just realised that my 2 trades for next round will be hard to make. My other cash cows are nowhere near peaked, so other than sideways trading for an injured player i might not actually make 2 trades next week.

Anyone else in that situation?

 

[Slipps]

crouch > c.beams
r.shaw > bartel

only langdon and hallahan left to upgrade

 

[Hate]

Griffiths > Brodie Martin
McDonald > Simpson

Polec been solid all year, may just keep him in my team until he drops a s**t score or gets injured. Just got to upgrade Hallahan and Cutler

 

[FlowersByIrene]

So far i've gone

Langdon > Martin

A downgrade that has finally cashed in the reliable Langdon, but it's getting to that time of the year. Langdon could possible stay one more week, but he's my highest cow at the moment and i need the cash. Thankyou son, you have been a wonderful contributor.

Birchall > Simpson

Whilst I have Higgins/Zorko on the field in the forward line and Suckling/Birchall in the backline (as well as still retaining two rookies in the midfield) I feel Simpson is a MUST to get in this week. Up against Brisbane next week and I can just imagine endless Mark & Kick combo's for the ever reliable, untagged, never stop running Simpson. And it will be good to finally have a Carlton player in the side.


Team post bye's looks like this.



I have to start working on upgrading Hartung/Hallahan to premiums but it is so hard with the lack of money making ability in this game.

Next week will either be a double downgrade of Langford/Robertson (Leaving the Double H's to mature more) to set up a war chest of over 300,000 (Currently 91k) or a Lagnford down and Higgins/Jones to Dalhaus/Rockliff

Whatever I do, i need to make it my goal to upgrade at least one of the Double H's to a premium within the next three weeks.

 

[mezaire]

Am I stupid going Macrae to Shiels?
Bit sideways but makes some cash and Hawks have a pretty easy run coming up.

 

[CaptScott]

Got to find a way to grab Simpson or Bartel, they are killing me. Langdon might still have some moo, but I think I'll move him on.

 

[SloppyJoe]

Will be welcoming back Barlow to my side this week

 

[doona]

crouch > c.beams
r.shaw > bartel

only langdon and hallahan left to upgrade

Looking at your team in the other thread, good trades.

I reckon you also have to upgrade t.walker, he is not a long term f6......

 

[Scrotes2000]

R.Shaw -> Bartel

Leaves me with about $10k and not many tempting rookies to downgrade. I've got Langford and Langdon, could move Langford from back to mid and pickup beams.

No rookies on the field, but I do have Tex sitting at F6. I thought he'd be able to average over 80 but he's rustier than I expected.

 

[Ess_don]

Got Bartel, but is Simpson a must have now do you think?
Sure will probably kill it this week vs Lions but then he has Cats and Hawks, Im thinking I might wait until then to upgrade, thoughts?

If I bring in Simpson this week, he would be replacing Langdon on field who also has a relatively easy opponent in Saints, followed by Dees and Dogs hence why Im reluctant to cull him.

I only have Tyson who I am staisfied with for an m8 for now.

I am tempted to trade walker out this week, he served a purpose through the bye rounds. (Also I have langdon, langford & polec on the pine...polec should score better)......But I want to wait a week to have a look at Franklin, or get Roo/zorko at a ridiculously cheap price.

 

[Scrotes2000]

Him and Bartel are averaging a good 10 points above the next lot of defenders.

I don't think he's must have but he is very nice to have. Lowest score all year is 84 points in his first game. I love some consistency in defence but unfortunately you will have to pay for it

Yer true, we are paying full price for him pretty much, lets just hope he has a quiet patch vs Hawks and Cats then.
Annoyingly in my RDT side, I've "completed" my backline with Bartel, Burger, McVeigh, Hibbo, Swallow and Suckers so I cant see myself trading any of them out for Simmo barring injury.

Yeah good call, that backline is great for RDT.

yeah cheers mate will be moving him on soon just hopeing that he can make some money at least a few 80s would be good

nice post bye team. Most others ive seen still have 3 rookies on the field, mine included. But yeah i made a post above wondering if anyone was going to have difficulty making trades for next round with not many cash cows ready for plucking or downgrade options popping up. Glad im not the only one struggling for money.

Players like Georgiou, Curry, and Rohan really hurt when theyve been in my starting team since day dot but not increased enough in value.

I absolutely despise Georgiou, Currie and Rohan

makes me wish that i could somehow manage more cash to get Langford from the start along with fasolo

 

[doona]

Currie

Played his part, what AFL fantasy team has ever had 4 functioning rucks.......still will get 50/60k trading to a rook ruck. THe other two were horrible though

 

[box1]

Dockers have a good run for the next 10 weeks or so, thinking about barlow or fyfe

 

[doona]

barlow has a 132 BE, wont go up in price this week. I would go Fyfe with his BE and average over the last few weeks

 

[CaptScott]

For the moment

Hickey > some $115k'er
Crouch > Pendles
