Trades 2024 Round 2 Trades

2k short of…
Gibcus-Massimo.
Watson-Billings.
Probably just the second one and sit on Gibcus for a week.
Still have Reid to deal with as well. Hoping against hope he can get back soon.

Billings will love playing more games at the G.

Wide open spaces compared to when he was playing at Marvel with the Saints.

And you could see yesterday that Melbourne wanted to get the ball into Billing's hands as much as possible going forward.

Are we just forgetting the 50 minutes of cardio he got the week before Nels for 11 points ?

15 marks and 23 possies for 119 .. not full of confidence it's a high scoring role

 

[Linear]

My latest thinking is keep fisher and martin, go gibcus to massimo and harmes to T Berry. Correcting an injury, suspension and pulling in Berry for earlier cash gen. Also keeping the boost for later.

Oi you bastards, don't break my glorious piglet Serong, he's mine!

Trade version 2

Libba > Captain Rowell

funds

Fisher > Flanders

1 keeper turned into 2 keepers

F the bye next week too! No1 else cares and neither will i!

 

[Wellsy35]

Don't think 2 burnmen are worth a boost, so it's just the stock standard:

Fisher -> Heeney
Gibcus -> Carroll/Sharp via Naicos DPP

Getting Billings also costs me Berry, which is just a silly sideways. Might hurt me in future, but can always do next week if he keeps it up.

I can go:

1)
Gibcus --> D'Ambrosio
Martin --> McKercher
Fisher --> Flanders

And bank 100k...

OR

2)
Gibcus --> D'Ambrosio
Martin --> Premo up to 585k
Fisher --> Billings

Leaving me without much cash at all.

Option 1 better for cash gen perhaps, but option 2 I get in an extra premo. Does leave me cashless though. And with a very weak fwd line of Jackson then Billings being next best. Hmm.

Faded

Reported! Mods^ Not for trading Billings, more for the use of THAT word in that context.

Just a heads up, the mustache emoticon is a not so subtle sign that a post is just taking the piss….

Is it worth bring in D'Ambrosio if it leaves me with 6k?

Blueiris, it's the overuse of the word fade by so many, and incorrectly, that riles up us pedants.

 

[Lord De Goey]

I’ll probably regret it but I’m leaning towards

Martin and Fisher -> Billings and Serong 93k bank

 

[iDon]

Genuinely some absolute brilliant knee jerks in here. Spend months and months talking about the same players in here and then one bad score and you all running to the hills scared. TRADE TRADE TRADE.

Sitting on Martin and Fish over here for a week, its a marathon not a sprint peoples

Yep. Only reason I'm doing Fish -> Heeney is it's an extra premo on the field. As so many people have Naicos and Grundy, figure the bye doesn't hurt nearly as much as say Flanders.

Particularly Serong - you ain't getting that 170 people! It's like Ryan in round 1 last year - was looking to be his highest score for the season by a fair margin until Round 17. Only difference there is that Luke Ryan must smell cos he always seems to be a POD.

Thoughts on Gibcus and Fisher to D'Ambrosio and Dempsey?

i feel like both fisher and martin are bound to come good considering the roles they have(which is why ppl had them in the first place), only thing is am i missing out on a big score from hogan + price rise to gamble on fisher coming good. also not sure if its dean or hore for gibcus

also like the idea someone had before to go from hogan to mckay next week to double dip on the weak matchups

was thinking of going clark to cadman with dpp but not sure using a boost is worth it for cadman's 1 week price rise into a bye

are there other areas that my team needs working on instead?

think you can give dempsey 1 more week before bringing him in esp with best 18 only

 

[iDon]

Fish and Martin both clangered it up but had a heap of it.

I'll enjoy my easy ton and 40 trades remaining.

Genuinely the best thread after the first weekend of matches on bigfooty.

None are on the bubble, so I'd say keep your powder dry this week. Having more trades in the bank will be gold later on.

Only one game sample size on three of them as well. Imagine if Fisher tons and Dempsey drops a 30 next week, or D'Ambrosio's score was a flash in the pan that will come out after one game? Considering the SC Gods, I'd say that's probably a certainty. Then you're already a trade up on all the trigger-happy kents, potentially even two, and have more info to make a better decision.

Only trade if you are missing the must haves on the bubble imo.

 

[South of the Yarra]

I seriously have no idea at the moment. Maybe Berry and Billngs in for cash

At least in my case for my trades just above, the only way I can get Billings is at the expense of Fisher. It’s reactionary, I know, but I probably have too many north players and Billings will make enough to justify the trade.

Now you mention you won’t get Serong’s 170. You’re 100% right but I’d argue we could be seeing a young player that already took a huge leap last season, ascending to even greater heights. He plays north this week, obviously a favourable fixture, followed by a few harder games before it really starts to open up at round 6. I can see a scenario where Serong gets priced out of us for a large portion of the season. So if that means turning a speculative pick like Martin, into at least a 110 averaging player with the upside to push for 120 (he’s improved every season), then why not? I already have 4 premium defenders, I honestly only started Martin because of fomo.

Sorry couldn't find a 'rate my team' thread. Anyone see any obvious trades I should make? Feel like I sit on Gibcus and Lohmann for another week before moving them out.

Good to see you here, friend

Team is looking pretty solid. Do you have enough cash left over to do Gibcus to D'Ambrosio? If not, you can probably hold fire this week as you have 22 available and no other def rookies are a pressing selection (could do Gibcus to Hore next week if he goes well).

Could always do Lohmann to T Berry if you're wanting a quick cash grab (or Billings if you have cash) but besides that, you're pretty fine standing pat. Worth giving Martin another week IMO.

 

[JuddgementDay]

Fisher never entered my thinking at any stage........am I doing it wrong?

That's the beauty of being busy
