The Broughton Dilemma - Poll

[PIGSTi]

Ok so seeing as everyone seems to have the same problem I thought a poll was in order. I left a few out of the Poll, Gibbs, Goddard, Diledio for obvious reasons.

Who do you trade Broughton for? The trade is for a keeper and not for cash cow.

Broughton > Enright
Broughton > Carrazzo
Broughton > Scotland
Broughton > Grimes
Broughton > Suckling
Broughton > Shaw
Broughton > Newman
Broughton > Gram
Broughton > Adcock

None of the above. If I trade him out it will probably be for Toy which will give me a large amount of cash to subsidise my future upgrades.

 

[PIGSTi]

Good point just updated the OP. Option is for a keeper and not a cash cow.

 

[Boro]

I'm going to stick with him and prey there is a role change once they get a few of the injured players back...My ranking is already down the toilet, but with 24 trades left my focus has moved to a cash league I play in so no trades of my so called premium players

 

[Briggzy]

Same except B.Smith instead of Toy (already have him). Will use the extra money in a couple of weeks when getting rid of Krak. I don't know a lot about Adcock but most people on here seem pretty apprehensive about getting him considering he's prone to injury..

Broughton > BSmith probaley for me....had Toy from the start.

 

[buddymania]

If you're going to a keeper I would go for enright.
Cash cow= toy

This or wait yet another week to see if Suban's injury frees him up a little. If not, then Grimes will probably come into my side come round 6.

rawlings?

You're losing a bit of potential money if you wait an extra week. I'm in the same dilemma with Duffield.

 

[PIGSTi]

I have Toy, Lower, Duigan and A Otten already in my back line so I have the cash cow's covered. I really need a keeper, will Enrights roll still be as hands on now that the Cats have the likes of Ling, Selwwod etc all playing together? Really need a 90+ backman. Goddard has been disappointing as well.

 

[dav3]

I think I'll keep him and hope he comes good. I'd be tempted by Grimes if it wasn't for the bye this week.

 

[Big Sledge #32]

True but with Grimes having the bye this week along with the fact that I have 70k in reserves I would like to wait one last week to see what he has got. But I still might trade down to Smith this week instead.

 

[favourites]

He is gone n chappy is in!

 

[senrulzisback]

If Silvagni is in, Broughton stays for another week, if Silvagni misses again, I will have to decide on whether to trade Broughton to Adcock or Gram.

 

[blue_boys]

Pretty sure Silvagni is still another 2-4 weeks away with a groin injury

 

[banana_bus]

I <3 this thread. Cant wait to pick up Broughton soon.

 

[Byron_Clanger]

I may keep Broughton in for one more week because Coad is injured so I'm going for Coad > Toy

 

[mmmdoughnuts]

I really want to trade Broughton to Smith and free up some cash, only problem is that there are no good looking back rookies on the horizon. I've already got a backline consisting of Lower, Heppel, Toy, Duigan, Stanley and Tarrant as cash cows.

Anyone else in this predicament?

 

[BACCS]

Going down to Toy, and then upgrading Krakoeur to Pav.

 

[PIGSTi]

Well in my impatience I just traded Broughton for Adcock who I had in my side round 1 100k waste that was! Missed out on Adcock's 30k rise and lost 60k on Broughton. Lucky my pasture is green

Now I just need to work on my forward line.

 

[senrulzisback]

Pretty sure Silvagni is still another 2-4 weeks away with a groin injury

Oh ok, I never really looked into it I just thought I saw somewhere that he was close to returning.

EDIT: The latest injury report has him as "Illness" and that he wasn't far off playing last week.

 

[Childish Gambino]

Picked him as a keeper and I'll stick with.

 

[PIGSTi]

So did I but averageing 50 and playing a new role this year, the decision needs to be made early to cut even more losses. Especially with a break even of 127 this week, when Adcock's breakeven is -10. Next week it could have cost to change over rather than put 17k in the bank. Possibly a 30k difference.
