Trades 2026 Round 8 Trades | Boosts poll

[Deliverance]

Yep. I saw that.
Just a funny feeling Reidy can take the No 1 ruck. My brain says no, its not possible, but gut is gnawing at me saying this is possible..... or I am lying to myself to justify culling McAndrew!

Sounds like people talking about Samson Ryan not long ago.

Out - Jacques and Bruhn
In - Whitfield and Retschko

Have been going back and forth about bringing in Nas or Whitfield but with Sinclair, Stewart, Holmes, Bont (and Flanders if he survives that long) all having a round 16 bye I've gone Whitfield. I'll aim to bring in Nas who has a relatively hard 5 weeks prior to his bye, after round 16.

 

[goondog]

Leaves me with the three-headed ruck monster of Gawn, Xerri & Jackson. Gonna death ride Grundy the rest of the year.

 

[Faz 2000]

Might toss Bruhn instead of Blam. See if I can wring a few more dollars out to fund two upgrades next week.

 

[Hazey1977]

Any Geelong watchers able to convince me Stewart is at a nice price? Role seems to change every couple of weeks?

Final trades

-Blamires to Retschko
-Jaques to Arty
-Kerch to Trac

$377k itb for a 1 down/2 up next week

THANK YOU BLAMIRES $$$

Blamires holds for 1 more week, Farrow is goooooooooone

$402.7k itb

 

[SC fish]

Just done Jaques and Parish to Whitfield and Retschko, leaving $244k in the bank.

Will likely pass on AJones and hope that one of Burton, Hayes-Brown, WEdwards, Mckenna, Gallagher or Cumming are decent downgrades for next week

I've done the same trades but got Jones as well.

 

[Biggie]

Think I'll settle on



But question for the masses: would you use a boost to bring in cash?

depends how many boosts you got and what you do next week i suppose

 

[ROOINYOU]

Tsatas out shits me.
Forcing me to trade farrow or blamires.
Can’t decide who.

Will probably backfire on me the way my season has turned on me, but I'm holding Farrow for his Round 11-14 run over the byes (Richmond, West Coast, Carlton & Melbourne).

Why not trade Tsatas?

 

[lids2richo]

If you had to choose one to trade out, who would you go Tsatas, Blamires, Jagga, Farrow? I know Tsatas is the only one not playing but he also has the lowest B/E and Blamires seems just as fringe atm..

2 after this and would upgrade a McAndrew/Farrow/Duursma type

i would look to bring in Key forward Zerritt for that run

 

[Changa10]

Sounds like a plan! Hopefully he can drop in price a bit v Brisbane, GWS & Freo the next three weeks.

Slight change

Have settled on the following



24 trades 2 boosts left

$266,900 for a mid or forward upgrade next week

 

[TasSixer]

Think i'll still trade Blamires over Farrow to Tracc. He's only in the team because Wardlaw has crabs. I know his BE is lower but he could easily be out next week. Atleast this is what i'm telling myself.

 

[left field options]

hmmm...is Arty Jones worth getting for Lombard? Would be a boost (but still have 4 left). $80k and maybe some hope of a decent score? Or am I just shuffling crappy deckchairs when the whole ship is about to sink?

I would do it Lombard isn"t going to get any better.

 

[Gresham2King]

$2400 left over after this seems like its meant to be. Had been Blamires instead of Lombard but after he is a late in he has a bit more cash to make. May go next week to Cumming if he is dropped again for Wardlaw as he seems to be on the fringe for whatever reason.

 

[Double the Fist]

Waiting for spike game....

Bye rounds coming up, rounds 12-16. Three trades will be available for everyone during the byes.
Most teams will have near completed teams by round 17.
I feel boosts are better used pre-byes.

The winning team last year used all boosts by round 5!

With that in mind.
Jacques to Retschko already done.
254k in bank


Original plan was just Dev to JHF.

However with the news of Rowell out, and Tracs superior scoring ability to JHF, and a fairly limited upcoming rookie crop and lack of DPP in my side, I am tempted to boost in Arty via Farrow, McAndrew or even Tsatas.

Farrow - Essendon game style suits, still money to make although a poor score will tank that.

McAndrew - solo ruck in a high stoppage team. Has the tigers next week, potential for cash gen to continue ticking along. High BE this week though.

Tsatas - low TOG and Brad Scott.

In each case I would have 140k (Farrow), 195k (McAndrew) or 104k (Tsatas)

What do you think?
