Round 14 Trades

[FandangoDingo]

Moving him to my bench - just waiting a couple of weeks to bring in Franklin for Gamble. Was going to bring in Chappy - but I have a quazzy - no more than 3 from each club rule - and I already have milburn - and am bringing in ablett when his price gets somewhere closer to $400k

Good luck with that! Or do you mean Nathan???

Also I can't remember I don't think u do and I know this question doesn't belong here but u don't get extra trades for finals do you?

Top post!

Running short of trades, and you are talking about trading X Ellis > McLeod (injured). Brilliant! Your league opponent won't see that coming!

 

[The_Gunny_Bomber]

I have Cornes, Burgoyne and King in my backline with Armfield and S.Selwood as emergencies so I'm a bit screwed this week... I am hoping that Cornes and King will play. I'm not sure to do about Burgoyne I was going to let Armfield fill in for him if Cornes and King play but with Armfield now injured I will almost certainly have to cop a zero or trade..
I have 7 trades left and still have Cotchin and Simmonds strating and only 16k in the bank. If I upgrade Burger to Mackie then I will have to make a trade for cash and the trade for Burgoyne leaving me with only 5 to upgrade cotchin to a gun which I am expecting to take 3 trades...
Maybe I should look at someone below 320k to upgrade burger or just cop the zero. What do you guys think?

why is it that unlikly that ablett could come down to atleast 420k. All he needs to get is like 3 80's or one really bad score like 50(could get injured during game and come back). There is no why he can keep getting 120 every week

 

[Dugong]

I can afford any back and I have no idea who to get.......I'm tossing up Mackie, Goddard even Wheatley. I want someone who will be there at the end of the season, consistent scorer and preferably someone who isn't as common (picked in every other team)...difficult i know because the backs are really lacking points this year.....any ideas?? Cheers.....

 

[lmaohelp]

well id say mackie should be there, i hope, cuz im looking at geting him for burgoyne

if you want someone that people dont hve it would be wheatley. He only has like 900 people that has got him. He has been very consistant as well.

Backs - Shaw, Goddard, Birchall, Burgoyne, Newman, Milburn, Ellis
Centres - Corey, Cross, Salopek, Stevens, Stanton, Palmer

Burgoyne -> Gilbee
Salopek -> Bartel/Kornes

Salopek -> Mitchell
Burgoyne -> Mackie/Bowden/Fisher/Bock/Guerra/Wheatley

Burgoyne -> Urqahart
Salopek -> Ablett

Back Emergency - Hansen & Edwards
Mid Emergency - Cotchin & Valenti

 

[The Special 1]

7 trades remaining $185,000 in the bank.

- Kosi > Cox ...Leaves me with $63,000 and 6 trades.

and then

- Palmer > to anyone under $412,000. i can just afford Cooney and would love to get him, but i think i'll buy Bartel for $389,000, save $23,000. and i think both Bartel and Coon-dogg will av. within +/- 5 of each other come seasons end.

 

[kenny712]

If Chad plays, none for me. Have Myers to cover for Burgoyne

 

[Cruiser23]

if you want someone that people dont hve it would be wheatley. He only has like 900 people that has got him. He has been very consistant as well.

Only get Wheatley if Myers is on the bench to cover. He is just like Drummond, has big issues with soft tissue injuries. Way to much of a risk for my liking, Mackie is the best option down back.

 

[Nebula1971]

and am bringing in ablett when his price gets somewhere closer to $400k

No disrespect intended, but he'll need an injury at the very start of a game when he is on like 3 points. He will then need to score sub 70's for 3 weeks running to get remotely close to 400k. By then the year is over and you may get 1 or 2 of his scores of 130+.

Is it really worth the trade? If you want him, you simply have to pay the $$$ now to reap the rewards of his red hot form.

I guess my mindset is tuned to going for the overall win only, if you are going for league, he would be very handy come finals time.

very happy with my at the moment because i have reserves in all areas that will play out the year (tippet, kruezer, cotchin and wilkes) currently have 140k and 6 trades left, i am thinking of palmer to cross and griffen to hodge, anybetter trades? help appreciated

You need to get in another premium mid or 2 if you can, one of the Geelong boys or Cross. Personally I would steer clear of Hodge, has this habit of getting himself forced holidays.

Your forwards are excellent.
Rucks ok.
Backs, Johnson is in need of a upgrade at some stage.

 

[bones25]

Hey guys....
i have 4 trades left and i have $30,500 in the bank
This is my midfield:
J.Corey
N.Stevens
L.Hayes
T.Johnstone
S.Burgoyne
R.Palmer
----------------
B.Ebert
Browne

now I have Ebert on the bench who is massively, stupidly overpriced at $270,00 due to the 135 he got. I am very happy with my forwards and am not wasting anymore trades on my backs (ive got Ibbotson and if needed Urquhart to rotate through #7)

However, with only four trades left, and C.Cornes and D.Cox in the team (who i think we all know are heading for early ends to their seasons) i cant afford to blow through trades.

The midfield i have though, Johnstone, S.Burgoyne and Palmer; one of them probably needs to become a premium

I guess this is a problem that a lot of people have; to trade or not to trade??

Theoretically out of the 3 guys Palmer actually has the best average but he would probably be the person I would be most willing to trade out.... I can just afford to go Palmer -------> Cross

Sorry if I rambled a bit, just thinking out loud.

Cheers for any advice given.

If your not coping 0's do nothing, UNTIL that time comes with Cornes/Cox. AT least wait for another 3 weeks.

your right there is no "why" however there is a WAY that he can keep gettin 120 every week

Mid Emergency - Cotchin & Valenti

I would go with trade #1 and would go for Bartel ( I may have a little bias as I have Kornes and have had him as captain for the last 2 weeks..)
Don't go with option 3! I know Ablett is tempting but how likely is Urqahart to keep scoring well or get dropped....

Taylor should be named after last weekends game and can cover for McLeod. Trade Burgs and you'll still be able to do Salopek-->Cross. Dont waste too much cash on Burgs' upgrade and you should still be able to afford a decent midfielder for Wellingham or if Wellinghams named, only trade out Burgs

Don't do anything drastic, Cotch & Wellie can cover.
Cornes will most likely play, but who knows.
So really you will only be missing 1 back, Taylor should play.
It's a tough one because of the 3 week break some of them will have and all may only miss 1 game.

Personally I would cop the 0 and upgrade Jones to Swan/Thompson/Bartel/Cross/Corey there's 30+ points a week = 280 extra for the year, which will well and truly compensate the 0. If you blow a trade or 2 covering you may very well be stuck with Jones to end of year.
I hope that all makes sense

If Cornes misses thats a whole new ball game, unless Proud plays.

Cornes has a 50/50 chance of playing so dont worry too much there.
You could downgrade Burger to Birchall or Milburn.

For Mcleod you should put Taylor on.

Now for Salopek.. you can upgrade him to Cross?? I dotn know how long Pek is out for though...

Wellingham can easily replace him so IMO you only have to do one trade.

Good luck!

[OO74812]

I am going to trade armitage down to a rookie and I was wondering if Eddy is going to play for the rest of the season? If he isn't is there anyone else who will play for or at the end of the season?
