Round 16 Trade$

[Squall]

No trades is likely although hmac is still sitting on my bench hoping he is back in time for DT finals.

 

[Dewy006]

Was going to go M.Williams to Goodes to finally finish my team, now Waters is out for 4-5 i'm back to square one, so god damn frustrating....

 

[Vincent Chase]

Waters -> Carrots/Suckling.

1 trade left. FMDT.

 

[policegetthatman]

Waters > Scotland
Hargrave > Suckling.

Bench Martin and Franklin and face 1 donut this week. Zorko is my 8th forward and so far I haven't been able to bench him which is great.

 

[amazingjoshy]

Teague said on 6pr tonight that Waters could miss up to 6...a must trade really. Thinking Scotland or Birchall, prefer Scotland at this stage.

Buddy is staying, happy to play Dickson this week, and then Martin back to help out next week.

Really i was gonna hold onto him if it was 4-5 weeks but if its more ill probably trade him. If it is 4-5 he will be back in time for finals

 

[00Stinger]

Franklin out for 2-3

 

[frello02]

Franklin out for 2-3

Oh ffs!

 

[JuddyBuddy]

Keeping Lance, gonna **** Waters off though, only problem is it's slim pickings for a replacement.

 

[ZAAHAARAKIS!!!!!]

ok this buddy news throws a spanner in the works. was going to sit on dusty because i had adequate cover, but the buddy thing and the waters thing and martin's suspension.

new plan is dustin martin to beams, and then semi downgrade waters to someone like houli or newman. thoughts?

A waste.

Interview here

Listening to it back, he actually says could be anywhere between 2-6 weeks depending on what they found. From experience as an Eagles supporter that almost always means a min of 6 but make of it what you will.

martin only suspended for 2 games, you have sat through one already why trade him now?

 

[ZAAHAARAKIS!!!!!]

Cover a zero, bring in someone who hasn't been really dissapointing.
All becomes irrelevant if izzy gets up and somehow plays (doubtful)

 

[tryonthis]

I don't mind copping another doughnut this week (for Franklin), but here's to hoping that Stevie J will play this week. No SJ, Waters, and Goddard is killing my DT.

 

[Shaxx Attaxx]

I'll need Shaw, Darley and Spurr playing if I'm to avoid a zero in the backlines. Not confident.

I was going to do Dickson to Murdoch but I might not since Franklin is out for a bit.

 

[RBW_007]

So this is my situation. 3 trades left with $160,200 in the bank. My backline is

Deledio, Goddard, WATERS, Adcock, Lake, Heppell, Carrazzo, Yarran, S. Shaw

Should I play Shaw this week and then use Yarran to cover Waters until he returns or trade Waters for one of Scotland, Birchall or Suckling?

 

[Oscarman]

Waters to Suckling, Franklin to NRoo. 6 trades left, $215k in bank. All sounds good, except I'm ranked 33k and also struggling in my main league.

 

[Cynic]

Thinking about a double trade this week..

Hargrave > Fisher (might be a handy POD in the run home)
Bugg > Yarran (wish I had done this trade last week *sigh*)

Then with any luck, Murphy will play this week and be green vested and plummet in price, so I can go JZ > Murphy next week.

Yeah that was some good advice by me

I plan to do:

OUT: Dickson & McDonald
IN: Sylvia (C7) & Yarran (D8)

Not enough cash at this stage of the year to look at the premium players sadly so to the bargain bin I go.

Will leave me with 6 trades & $67,600 which will let me bring in Murphy/Dangerfield & Couch to finish my team with 4 trades left to hopefully avoid the carnage of the late rounds.

 

[DirtySanchezWCE]

so it's pretty much agreed that waters has to go out.... way too many injuries/suspensions in my team at the moment :/

 

[Byron_Clanger]

Trade Waters out people, don't make the same mistake I did with Pendles by keeping him on the bench for 2 months

 

[earlyreflections]

Trade Waters out people, don't make the same mistake I did with Pendles by keeping him on the bench for 2 months

Difference is though Pendles broke a bone, Waters could go either way

 

[DirtySanchezWCE]

yeah, im thinking i can keep waters if it's 3 or so weeks .....going for league win, playing some spuds so can probably limp into finals and decide from there

 

[HolyRioli]

FMDT

Bench Waters (I have better backline cover with Ellis / Shaw)

Franklin -> Robinson
Hargrave -> Hanley

leaves me with 2 trades, $2,300 and an angry disposition

 

[CaptScott]

So this is my situation. 3 trades left with $160,200 in the bank. My backline is

Deledio, Goddard, WATERS, Adcock, Lake, Heppell, Carrazzo, Yarran, S. Shaw

Should I play Shaw this week and then use Yarran to cover Waters until he returns or trade Waters for one of Scotland, Birchall or Suckling?

I'd probably bring in Yarran/Shaw and see what happens. If they continue to get 70+ a match keep Waters (and save the trade).

I've got the opposite. Would like to hold waters (shaw/ellis coverage) and save the trade though my next 2 league matches are going to be very tight and very crucial (I'm sitting in 8th). I think there are only 5 unique players separating me from my next opponent!
