Round 4 Trades (with POLL)

[BennyGan]

If you look at the 9-10 games last season where Lobb played #1 ruck for GWS he either beat or broke even with 5 of the better rucks going around.

Lycett
TBC
Jacobs (twice)
Sinclair (twice)
Grundy

It's a bit unfair to call him a forward when he's playing ruck, as he's no pushover in that position and is arguably a better ruck than he is a forward.

Probably is a bit harsh of me but I know he’s said he sees himself as a forward, I just don’t think he’s that good at either. Can take a decent mark here and there and is quite mobile for his size but I don’t really rate him.

Thank **** I pissed off Dusty last week but not so happy I ditched Heeney (but still think there's further pain down the track for Heeney owners) and I've now got $530K in cash.

My pain points as far as scoring players are concerned are BSmith, Drew and Setterfield and my backs and forward lines could do with some strengthening.

I'm torn whether to trade this week and ride these for a week or two more or hold as all should have some price appreciation.

Right now my ranking is 63K so hoping to improve that stat!

On field rookie selections have meant I've left a shitload of points on the bench so my team isn't a complete basket case.

Trade targets I'm considering are Whitfield, Boak and Rozee.

1.Hold

2. B Smith to Whitfield

3. Smith to Whitfield and Drew to Rozee

4. Drew and Setterfield to Boak and Rozee

5. Drew or Setterfield to Boak

6. Drew or Setterfield to Rozee.

Decision, decisions

Don't kill semi passable rooks, use the cash to upgrade some total stain from your bench and put the Drew/Setters type on the bench to slowly moo.

I am a stray cat my man and am different for best or worse.

I'll never change so I guess that's what makes me unique around here.

Live by the sword and die by the sword is the JM motto.

List your trades so far JM. I want to feel happy for a while. Your official ones so far...Not for this wk.

 

[zoomba23]

Nathaniel, it was fun while it lasted, but it's the never again list for you mate. Anyone would think someone pays you to miss games.

Fyfe > Macrab (never rated him that much but the nerds are hard for him and Bont. Can't miss out on those juicy kotd pts )

Dunks > Rozee my other trade. Frees up cash to upgrade the big Jew to the Man Bun next week.

24 trades left after next week. 0 ****s given

Him & Josh Fraser would probably be the skinniest ruck duo ever.

Skinny ruckman u say.....

 

[Moustachio]

It's a concussion, how long could he possibly be dead for?

19 days of rest was the recommendation I thought... Puts it at 3 weeks missed unless he just rocks up to play without training. This is not to mention a) concussion effects can linger for months, we won't know how scoring is affected until having already held for 3 weeks and b) the mid coverage for those with good structures consists of SFA because they have all the good rookies on field. You can hope for at best 50's from someone for 3 weeks while if you went Neale you are looking at what, say +75 ppg? Ouch...

I am reluctant to do the obvious though by getting Neale. I would rather try and shore up the shitshow fwd rookies situation, eg uograde Balta so Drew or Parker can go bench. Or maybe I will send Danger mid as an impostor to make me feel good about it.

 

[TravisJohnstone]

Cheers mate.

Those 2 trades are locked in, wont be changing them.

Lock em in Eddy.

Yeah but what were they the first 2 rounds? I missed them. List all 6 for me please

Pretty average trades so far mate besides this weeks trades.

Mainly just pissing off spud rookies and bad starting picks.

 

[Hava Alle]

Apparently Fyfe is showing no symptoms, slept well and drove himself to the club. That's big news in favour of him playing this early in the week. Still a 60/40 to miss imo.

F@rk Fyfe.

I'm not changing my trades now even if he plays.

Like my trades and my team is better structured now.

See you in a few weeks campaigner when I trade you back in again.

Was tempted mate but held off with all the willpower I had which isn't much.

Glad I didn't press the trade button now.

Yeh nice mate I kept him too. Finger is on the launch button for Dunkley though. And hopefully LDU goes well for us. He was horrid on the wknd.

Who are you trading him to? I've rissoled Dunkley to Tom Stewart via Moore.

Who the **** is that spud?

 

[leng jai]

Menaspue

Why though? He was dropped for several weeks then came back and scored 130, then continued being useless

Can't hold that trash

All this talk of trading out spud rookies gives me cold sweats thinking of this shit truck.

Puppies for the first to name the croquette

2019 and these ultra faults are still jealous they didn't have the foresight to see big Menafault was priming himself for the byes that season.

 

[Raveneyes]

Yep what a turd he was. He got that 130 the round i traded his pathetic arse out


Well done. Puppies for you

Had him on the ground for that 130.

To me he was MenaMOOOOOO!!!!

Heard that Scott put LDU on the bench for the first 8 mins of each quarter and then when he put him on the ground it was up forward for some reason.

When LDU was on 23 SC he all the sudden went up to 65 SC just like that when Scott put him in the midfield again but then spud Scott took him out and put him forward again and Hawks took control of the game and won.

What a f@rktard of a coach....

 

[Jiska]

Fyfe out for at least 2 weeks. Damn! I don't want to trade him but i need to if i want to get Neale. Fyfe -> Neale and maybe Cousins -> Rozee

Yeah it's either Marshall or Rozee but probably the latter. If Rozee can match Dunkley and ave 80 then I can use that cash to upgrade Cousins to Neale soon. I could straight swap Dunk to Boak now....but these huge scores of Neale are taking my soul.
