Round 18 Trades

[Kanga.18]

Josh Head isn't young, but his career so far has been affected a lot by injuries etc and he can't take a trick. He has improved every game so far after a pretty uninspiring debut. MacKenzie is highly rated by a lot of Coast supporters and looks like he has a role to play in their defence. I would steer clear of Ward.

I just traded Cotchin for Dalizell... gives me over $300k and 3 trades next week...

one will be for Chappy to Richo or Riewoldt most likely... I will use the other that week on mids valenti or Bartram up to someone like Cooney or whoever I can afford...

 

[Reg Hickey]

Cats are taking NO risks with key players right now, so I wouldn't be surprised to see Chappy out for 3 weeks to make sure he is cherry ripe for the finals. I'm thinking of trading him for Franklin this week (for a $50K profit ).

But on the other hand my backline is my weakest line and still includes Chadwick, who I was thinking of trading for McLeod this week.

Only four trades left and a finals spot wrapped up (although could drop out of the top 4 if I lose this week).

What to do, what to do ...

 

[OneEyedHawk]

Let me rephrase that. Given his recent form, is it worth taking the risk on Cooney when I can afford Boomer?

Tough one. Cooney has the potential for some massive scores, but Boomer is the safer option IMO. Has scored 110 or over 10/17 games this year.

I picked up the Coon Dog 2 weeks ago, has sinced dropped $100k. I'd get Boomer if I had the choice over again.

problems

backs

neagle gone I believe, King will he be back, Proud, who knows

need to trade 1 out to avoid a zero again, lost my last game by 29 pts playing with a zero

mids
ablett on the bench with Scott selwood, or wellingham as my 6th mid

fwds

Chappy at least 2 weeks

Pav??

have porps, Jetta to cover

Unless there are more changes only want fix up backs this week

have 4 trades , 195,800, 3rd on % , playing bottom side, could finish between 2 and 6th

As neagle is gone and I trade him just to make 7 backs playing have upto 385600 to spend and as previously stated on these boards, quality backs this year are rare. Can go from a birchall , staker to a brad moran or joshua head.


if king plays ??, then I might downgrade wellingham to Dazell in the mids

proud is in tippett is outking a emerg

good and bad

can play 7 backs but no cover, neagle /king

can play 7 forwards but no cover chappy/ tippett

mids covered by s selwood

myopponents looks like he has 3 zeros in the backline unless he trades 2 out

wont know till fri night

do i trade cotchin or wellingham for dazell and either have 421500 or 344200 cash

and have 3 trades left to either get rid of chappy(486400) or tippett(235800 )the following week and get roo for 620000 odd

my fwds are, rok, pav, buddy, J brown, porps, jetta, bj

I'm struggling with exactly the same dilemma. Have only 3 trades and $25k, and don't know whether to trade Cotchin/Wellingham>Dalziell?
Seems extremely risky with only 3 trades, but it'd free up some much-needed cash for the Cornes trade (and final trade).

BACKS: Cornes, Shaw, Gilbee, Newman, Johncock, Birchall, Ibbotson (Head & Proud)
MIDS: Ablett, Cooney, Dal Santo, Bartel, Cornes, Stevens (Cotchin & Wellingham)
RUCKS: Cox, Simmonds (Hampson & Renouf)
FORWARDS: J Brown, Franklin, Pavlich, Riewoldt, ROK, SJ, Rioli (Ross & Thompson)

Thoughts much appreciated??

 

[Faz 2000]

Thanks for the definitive advice, peeps. Nicoski became Gilbee this morning, and if Johncock returns my backline is looking OK.

Dalziell is gonna get a go as midfielder #7 this week. Just hope he contributes.

While I'm well down the rankings, I am comfortable having 6 trades left and $148k at this time of year. I can make two trades a week through finals to sell a bench player and upgrade someone on the park, or to cover injuries. Now I just need the squad to actually fire up!

Need some fire from Aker, H Shaw and one of the big forwards this week (Pav, JBrown, Bradshaw or Buddy).

did cotchin for dazell, leaves me plenty of cash for 3 upgrades

 

[Stanton]

This week i have traded out kurk tippett for Robert Murphy had planned to trade for ROK but i missed the boat on that one. Have left Josh Kennedy WCE on the bench as cover. 2 trades left which im only gonna use for cover for injuries or an upgrade for prem or granny.

 

[drewie_rama]

palmer was only my emergency, so downgraded him to dalziell, trade osborne for milburn, still plenty of cash left also

 

[Biggie]

Used up my last 2 trades lads.

Chappy ----> Marc Murphy

J.Morton----> Rob Murphy

Kreuzer only rookie left in absolute best 22.

Bring it on.
