interesting that he had fewer CBA’s in the last when he went massive.

[Makeshift Park]

All good my friend! I quite like Fonti, but haven't stumbled across an easy way to get him in just yet. Reckon he's a solid option, eye test looks really good.

Eye test indeed looks good. Strongly considering Blakistan to him next week.

Just bear in mind that he's going to go up quite a lot this week

80 x 2 gets him to $370k at his bye. Is the extra trade worth $70k?

I really rate him and if I was trading him in, would probably aim to hold for at least 4-5 weeks to let him fatten properly. But I'd get the logic too for someone like SS who doesn't have a clear trade-in option for Gulden. Would probably rather that than going early on a rook and having all that cash warming the bench.

Windsor to Fonti would be awfully silly, but I do make some silly moves early on.

Trouble is if you do the Gulden>Fonti trade you are still sitting on $260K, which isn't enough to trade anyone but Fonti up to a premo. So you are then a premo short for several weeks. GWS also have Richmond after their bye so it would be tempting to hold him.

I figure Gulden was on his bye in rd3 anyway, so getting a rookie this week is actually an extra scorer (albeit only a rookie).

But yeah, I don't love the idea of going early on a $99k guy either.

 

[Tigers123]

Thanks to those suggesting to hold Sellwood, I think it's a wise move and I can't figure out how to multi quote only Gulden to Trac the GOAT who will probably kick 8 against my mob

 

[The_Steadier]

you could always do a quick smash and grab with Fonti? Get a couple of good price rises from him and some decent on-field scores in the interim,

Im thinking about doing this instead of going straight from nas to bont.

Nas to fonti this week....means 2 weeks of scores and prices rises out of fonti; then trade fonti or windsor out for bont (via rozee back) after bonts bye.

Doing it that way would give me an extra circa 80k in the bank and the chance to choose between windsor or fonti as the best stepping stone.
Plus it would also mean not having to carry bont through his bye.

The cost of doing it that way (instead of straight from nas to bont) would be an extra trade and the points difference between bont and fonti this week.

Hmmm.

With spare time on my hands I made up a team of players mentioned as possible trade outs this round in this thread...

Coleman McKercher Marshall
Clark Young Whitfield
Parish Oliver Brayshaw
Phillipou Coniglio Neale
de Goey NAS Warner
Grundy Gulden Walsh

D Cameron, Sharp, Rivers, Uwland, T Miller

Briggs, Visentini, Blakiston stiff to miss but 5 rucks might be overkill even under the new rules.

And Gulden is the only forced trade of that lot

Thinking Gulden>English/Jackson & move McAndrew to flex rather than R2

Thoughts?

Perfect. That's the best scenario for trading Gulden IMO.

Cheers mate. Means I have to offload Blakiston early but I like the security of a premo ruck @ R2. Don’t trust Nicks

 

[The_Steadier]

Sounds good assuming you have a dpp at r3?
If not, not worth it i don't think.

Yeah have dpp @ R3

Can you not do it in one trade?

Does this sound like a good idea…. My team scored 2400 this week and I’ve got all the good rookies exc Sellwood, Carroll & Rosas which I’m good with.

I need 1 more mid this week to field a team with the byes but can move Grij to Mid and ZZ to flex but that means losing McAndrew sadly.

But I’m hoping to get Gulden to the flex to trade in for Fonti and that’s just cause I only have 594,100 to trade a prem in and I’m not liking Ed Richard’s, Merrett or Sam Walsh

Pou if not named to Cook

That will net me an additional 167k to get Bont rather than burn a trade on Zerrett or Richards when the only mids I’d like for Gukden are Bont/Anderson/Holmes

 

[Northernsoul74]

There's 2 issues for Serong. New rules and competition for CBAs. Last yr he had 81% CBAs and Rd 1 this yr had 68% with Jackson, Young and Reid added to the mix. He struggles in transition so has got a few negatives despite the big last qtr on the weekend. He and X are the 2 who seemed to salvage decent scores against the trend on the weekend but some doubt if it's sustainable

View attachment 2554109

I started Serong but agree, not sure I’d be rushing to trade into him.

 

[SSwans2011]

Trouble is if you do the Gulden>Fonti trade you are still sitting on $260K, which isn't enough to trade anyone but Fonti up to a premo. So you are then a premo short for several weeks. GWS also have Richmond after their bye so it would be tempting to hold him.

I figure Gulden was on his bye in rd3 anyway, so getting a rookie this week is actually an extra scorer (albeit only a rookie).

But yeah, I don't love the idea of going early on a $99k guy either.

Yeah it's an awkward amount of money to be sitting on, but I also have Windsor and Budarick and didn't find either one particularly convincing (though Windsor could have gone big if he nailed his chances), so it gives me some options there. Not to mention Parish and Young that could get injured at any given moment.

The bigger downside for me – and it's a good problem to have – is that Carroll is my only rookie that looks a bit iffy (other than Phillipou), so I'd probably have to fade either Murdock or Cook.

Granted, I'd be in the same boat if I swapped Carroll and Gulden for Murdock and Cook, unnecessarily forcing out a rookie to try to force in another premo.

I'm glad they're not, but this week's trades would be a whole lot easier if one of Phillipou or Marshall's injuries were serious.

As someone else that started Serong, I agree.

Keep in mind that he was on 70-odd at 3QT and was only saved by a monster last quarter.

And also keep in mind that Young played deep forward in the last quarter due to his lack of fitness.

IMO you're planning too many unforced early trades for a team that scored so well in round one.

Even if Phillipou isn't named this week, I'd hold him.
