AFLW 2025 AFLW Round 9 - Fantasy Trades & Discussion.

[JADED]

It's been a good run, but with Young my most expensive bench player, there's no cash for upgrades...

Thinking Prespakis and Scholz down to Patrikios and Strom to fund McLaughlin to Gay (already have Serene, Chaplin, TLR and Goodwin in my DEF).

Hmm, I didn't realise $60k could be squeezed out of Scholz down to Strom.
I might do that instead of a bench trade.

Good trades. Maddison Gays finish last year (106, 87 & 124) was very helpful.

 

[GrantSpatchcock]

I don't like the idea of fielding Rigoni, even though Freo are a great matchup for defenders. The difference between VC and C may not be much compared to Rigoni and Thomas or even Everist.

Ta. I know it's silly but just needed it confirmed. Will mean I have to hold McLaughlin, which could get ugly, but so be it.

Final trades for me:

Blackburn -> Nanscawen
Heath -> Everist/Thomas
Window -> Molloy

Yeah, creative accountancy at it's finest!

that is an upgrade on every position, so looks good!

Gotta back in the 3 upgrades. Those are solid trades.
VC loop might lock in a 130 vs a 110.

I'm also running with out a VC loop unless I trade 1 in (only red dot is playing game 1)
So it's a cheap, playing $300k'er or a red dot loop.

Also, Gay on the bench with a knee complaint. Doesn't look too bad but this is more minutes off.

 

[JADED]

Pritchard probably get 2 weeks for a swinging elbow.
More clearances available for
Next week, Rowbottom
Rd 11, G.Prespakis (currently trading her out this week)

 

[GrantSpatchcock]

I'll happily take a 91 from Nanscawen and a 67 from Toogood in whatever the hell that game was.

Essendon beat North, match it with Melbourne, but get thrashed by the likes of WB, Stk and Freo, lol. What is this team even...?

Well, they didn’t beat North.

 

[GrantSpatchcock]

They found an extra 2 for Bonnie. Nice.

 

[dplggr47]

Well, they didn’t beat North.

oh yeh, forgot. They were winning at one stage and matching it with them, but ultimately lost out, but I think that was one of those weird Windy Hill affected games.

 

[samFFC]

350 / 5 which is a nice even number!

Better not take VC Noff, let’s go Turbo tomorrow!

I’m comforting myself with the fact that Wilson is (kind of) pacing her (for now)…..

 

[Atavistic]

Window still in the team, named on ball. Still not sure I want to reverse my trade and bring her back in.

 

[samFFC]

Hmm.
Fleur loopable on the bench…
Could she be fieldable for the last few rounds? If it means Koenen / Gutknecht off field (or Wilson more likely).

TOG still super low, and she's up against Dunlop. Our upcomming ruck matchups are as bad as it gets in Strom & Scholz.

I quite rate her though, I dunno why she hasn't been getting game time earlier because she looked real solid in the NTFLW as a FWD.

 

[Atavistic]

Did anyone here keep Window?

 

[GrantSpatchcock]

Ain't got a lot right this season, but damn if I didn't pick McCormick being Bernasconi'd after her job on Wardlaw last week.

 

[Shaunn]

Trade TLR in for 82 and 62, as always.

-42 eek

Yup agreed
Kinda glad she didn’t get 80 otherwise I would’ve been tempted.

60s is an easy decision.

 

[samFFC]

Yup!

 

[Atavistic]

Yup!

Well, at least she's not a late out with an owie.

 

[Nicowalshie9]

Also kept Window...and a bit concerned about that blow to the head. Blood everywhere
