Round 17 trades

[leng jai]

So Ablett, Goddard and Rockliff out of my mids..... any chance big Acres get a game this week?

 

[AnthonyBPC]

I am hoping that JPK's form is going to be as hot as the Aussie fan jumping around during the replay of the Socceroos Australia game during the 2006 World Cup. If you haven't seen her, do yourself a favour and watch the second half now... I remember her fondly!

 

[Rookie Error]

4 trades left, 32,500 left
Big move given my lack of trades, but considering McGovern > Parker then Ablett to a mid under 515k (Treloar, ASwallow, O'Meara)
Is this too crazy??? Only playing for league wins and will win this week, and leaves me with Shenton until nearly the end, but Parker is tough to pass up at this price and Shooter is going to lose value in the next week or two as well. My other option is to do nothing this week and then Ablett to JPK/libba then Shenton to SMitchell next week

With so few trades I'd be looking at the bench cover. Mumford got a reprimand this week, Stefan Martin is another option for the forward line gives you ruck cover also. Will not score as well as Parker though for the rest of the year you'd think.

So far gazz is out of ....>
1. Ablett, G MID 25673 (49.14%) out of teams.News is yet still to come though on the injury.

Wow, he's going be a nice pod come SC finals time.

 

[rocker_oz33]

Really depends on how long hes out for.

 

[AnthonyBPC]

Wow, he's going be a nice pod come SC finals time.

lots of reverse trades possible.

 

[toxic]

you don't think so?
26,000 selections at present, which is POD really
i think with Ablett, Goddard, Rockliff this week, people will burn trades they didn't want to and not be able to bring him in

Will be in 70000 teams in 3 week's

No you've miss read it, he's not out of 49% of teams. 49% of this week's total trades have been Ablett OUT = 26k teams out of the 180k that have him, have traded him out...however many % that is.

 

[Feerits Elf]

Thats 14% Gingy.

 

[SnappyHappy]

#1) Upgrade L.Taylor > D. Swallow & Loophole Jaensch/Docherty @ D7

#2) Upgrade L.Taylor > B. Harvey & Loophole Breust/Zorko @ F7

Thoughts?

Got a bit of the ball for Sandringham last week, but I think he might need another run in the 2s.

Hope not, as I still have him too.

 

[SnappyHappy]

If you have cover for GAJ, I'd rather upgrade Goddard

Upgrade Goddard!? Are you high? Take out his injury affected 11 and his average in 114.9, 7th overall in the competition.

 

[big bootaaaaah]

When I trade GAJ I get $971000 to spend With 4 trades.
Imagine if I was down to my last trade - that would be devastating.
I wonder how many that's happened to?
Probably best to hang on to him if that was the case.

The Jiska - Goddard relationship has been Judd_Magic like this year.

I'd rather Pendlebury, Rocky, Fyfe, JPK, Beams, Selwood and Ward over Goddard (Keeping GAJ as M9 for now).

Libba would probably be ahead of him in my book too.

But that's just me..

Not really. I traded him in and left him in

Well obviously, he's been averaging over 100 since you got him in. You were anti-Goddard a few weeks prior to that and now you're suggesting to trade him out instead of Ablett because he's out for 1 week

Absolutely. Trading out GAJ is craziness in my book, although I did seriously consider it myself on Sunday. All you'd have to do is trade him back in so it'll cost you two trades. If you're holding a donut better it be the best SC scorer in history. If you traded Goddard for a Fyfe or a JPK and leave GAJ in, no further trades needed on that front.

Suppose it depends. If you have 8 trades left, GAJ out would be okay, but the poster didn't have many left IIRC?

Trouble is you're probably costing yourself at least 40-50 points for every week GAJ misses (even if you have reasonable cover) so the trade is worth it.

Goddard is out 1 week, Ablett is out for at least 3 and probably more. How many weeks after that before gets back to his peak? Most people have 1 player as cover in their mids so if you can cover him this week you have no cover for every other week he's out.

 

[Unforgiven349]

So Ablett, Goddard and Rockliff out of my mids..... any chance big Acres get a game this week?

Acres isn't without a chance, particularly with Jack Steven injured (out for 4 with a quad injury). With last weeks average effort, I could potentially see Richo given Acres a crack, who had 18 touches for sandy on the weekend.

He's competing with Murdoch, Saunders, Wright and Curren (all who played Sandy on the w.e)

Me - and at this stage I intend to keep him.

No you wouldn't.

 

[OhhhhhCyril]

I have ended up going Gaz>Priddis because my teams has enough PODS 1 more isn't going to hurt, and upgraded Mclobvin to Grey.
Only 4 trades left which is hurting but next week will bring in Sammy mitchell for the cheep and will only need to upgrade Impy to somebody as a final trade.
Sitting 1st, 1st, 2nd.1sr and 5th in my leagues so not all bad if I drop a game or 2. Holding on but only Just
