Trades 2026 Round 5 Fantasy Trades

[DukeX]

Currently going Blak > Ash & Red > Farrow. Leaves 600k in the bank.
Just a bit awkward for me this week- all of Jaques, Grlj, Lindsay, Blamires, and Serong have still got good cash gen to run, and Fonti & Houston are fattening up down back, but feels to early to jump off them yet for Ash, so Blakiston is the weak link to go for him, which means i cant get up to a Bont or Smith from Richards. Just not sure i need another rook in Farrow that needs to make money before going out, but not sure what else to do.
I could go Coleman instead, pushing Grlj to the mids via DPP, but i'm not sure i'm sold on him, and just feels like another stepping stone.
The worst 2 of Butters/Anderson/Walsh go to Bont & Smith next week with the 600k i guess

I've carried 1 million in the bank since trading Gulden to Murdoch and will have to do so once again if I make the logical trades of English to Grundy and Blakiston to Farrow.

Next week, I can do Lindsay and Windsor to 2 premiums if things go ok injury wise.

Anyone in a similar boat?

Not the mili, but half a mil in my bank leaves me with options to go 1 up 1 down with pretty much any pairing of players next week. Problem is that the ruck line so far is Max or nothing and I am averse to paying 1.2 for anyone. Tought spot to be in

Todd Marshall worth a trade in?

You can have my Todd Marshall

Moved on Trac last week after his bye - held 933k
So been holding Trac's cash for 2 weeks, now Richards and English are issues.

Probably holding Richards cash this week, 1mil still on the pine

Robey to debut

[Phar Ace]

96
Projected score of 86 and -$12,000 (dunno how accurate these projections are)

 

[Lukesera]

Spend your cash this week, it's looking like a double downgrade week next week with Anderson and Robey debuting.

Good chance to get off Gallop or Lombard in the forward line.

Farrow still more important than those two currently and if you've got English then its nearly impossible to not have cash .

 

[MaxiBont]

Is Murdock back soon?

Next week i think?

Farrow this week or never, especially with those 2 named.

Yeah 100%, ill still have $600k and English as Parish/Blakiston need to go first so kinda want 2 premos next week but im sure we'll get rooks who are must haves for next week and ill have to hold alot of cash again .. fun fun.

This season is something else. Can't remember ever playing anything like the way this one has started.

 

[JDWCE]

Heeney or Newman?

Both excellent value and I think Heeney has the chops to be a top 8 this year. Don't think Newman will be top 8 but he looks like he could be bloody close

 

[Mezzoculo]

Ridley and ZReid likely to play this week. How do we think that impacts farrow?

 

[Shaunn]

This season is something else. Can't remember ever playing anything like the way this one has started.

Yep... injuries and then picking some of the worst premo and mid pricers imaginable. I'm so far back so im not stressed to much about the year anymore but would still like to see how high rank i can get from here as im out at 52k after going top 350 the last few years lmao.

 

[garykebablett]

I’m stuck this week. Either I trade X.Lindsay -> Farrow and Windsor -> Ash this week (Means Jackson/McAndrew on field and English/Blaki benched to trade both next week, assuming no injuries).

Or I trade English -> M.Edwards and Blaki -> Ash this week (Means I bank 450k and miss out on Farrow).

Or I trade English -> M.Edwards and Blaki -> Farrow (Means I bank over 1m).

Any suggestions?

Reckon you can wait a week on Newman.

Meant to be a wet game tonight, No Weitering and Haynes and ZWilliams back into the line up.

Won't hurt to get another look.

I'm at 48k....going to be fun to see if I can recover. Top 1k would be relatively impressive from here and what I'm aiming for.

Yeah top 1k is similar for me aswell, need to catch up fast though!

so if he misses again thinking of going to one of Bont, Merrett and Callaghan? Already have Naicos and Baz - but out of those 3 who will score the most?

Bont - Looks like the one, however doesnt have the best run coming up, looks like he could drop a 75 at any game, also 100k extra
Merrett- Run looks good till the byes, downside he plays for Essendon
Callaghan - cheapest, easiest run, however hasnt been consistent yet in his career

 

[Walshy_The_Goat]

Have $888k in the bank and keen for a spending spree. Considering Blakiston to Whitfield? Or Parish to a Steele?

NFI what to do with the second trade.

If anyone can help, much appreciated!
