Round 2 Trades

[superfraser]

yeah I agree. I have Dangerfield, but not Gaz. I'll probably wait another week, but if Fyfe stinks it up again, looks proppy and spends a substantial time in the forward line while Gaz bangs on another 140+ score, I'm switching.

It's only 1 trade, people make it sound like it's going to wreck all future trading ability.

That's it man. You only need to go back to this time 12 months ago to recall the same was being said about GAJ. Some were saying trade him out after a 120 in round 1, others were saying wait and see.

Clearly - the better option was trading him out in Round 1.

Of course, this may prove different. But I think those in the may-trade-Fyfe basket understand that it could backfire, although, these people aren't generally considering trading Fyfe to Hickey, they're considering trading Fyfe to GAJ or Dangerfield - so the likelihood of getting burned is lessened. Another bad score from Fyfe and his $value will plummet, a string of poor games, and you can buy back in at a bargain price, whilst also having picked up a red hot Dangerfield.

Why are you guys worried about JM having the same players you have?

He'll trade them all out for jared roughead soon enough.

Just waiting for Roughead to come back so I can trade out Hall for him.

Roughead will be my secret weapon this year........

Any updates on how long Robinson will be out for? Rather than make any correction trades I am thinking about swapping Wells for Robbo via DPP and covering with Hewett.

Hewett vs. Carlton and a saved trade
vs.
Hall/Libba + $75K/$140K minus 1 trade
vs.
BenKen + $300K minus 1 trade

Team is as follows ... will require 2 trades to get in BenKen unless I straight downgrade Steele. Likely also have to deal with N.Broad and my back line ... where I need $100K to get anyone worth while.

...mistakes made with keeping Broad and all the FWD/DEF DPP's down back

You and 39.1% of SCers.

LOL!

I'm trying not to be the same old reckless trading JM this season.

We all have to grow up sometime right?

But why?

 

[Judd_Magic]

But why?

Cause I want to win my cash league.

I made it all the way to my cash league grand final last year with no trades 2 weeks before finals started a splat of injuries and no NicNat.

Had double chance and lost first week but won next 2.

Keep thinking to myself what I could do if I still had trades left in finals.

On the Brisbane website they said he'd be out for 1-2 weeks and Robo himself said on Twitter that he'd be back against Geelong in round 3

Hall scores 129 and you're already thinking about giving him the Zorko treatment.

 

[karaoke]

guys I need your advice.
Overall I am pretty happy with my team. Do I pull the trigger on the following trade?

C Ellis to B Kennedy
G Gresham to Menadue

???

Also - I can't really wait a week as I am going to make another trade next week to get Weitering in if he continues his good form.

Thoughts?

Sit tight for one more week.

I don't think those are too bad a choices.

Early on Ellis looked good & Gresh got stuck in fwd pkt/flank.

 

[Judd_Magic]

All good mate. LOL!

Sorry if I sounded too serious, just really want to win my cashie this year after being in 2 losing grand finals the last 4 seasons in it.

Only lost both by under 50 points each too.

Still hurts as it was to the same flog aswell.

I'd hold Gary Gresham myself, much better player than his brother Jade.

Was camped in the forward line for long stretches and didn't really get a run on the ball. Clean disposal though and could have kicked a couple of goals but wasn't spotted up. Watch against the Doggies.

Certainly wouldn't be rushing to trade him for Menadue.

 

[Foxx]

Yes please trade your proposed keepers after 1 bad game. It's worth having 1 less trade at finals time.
No wonder people have incomplete teams at the end of the year.

Thoughts on how long M. McGovern sticks around in Adelaide?

 

[fortunatelygone]

Thoughts on trading Gardiner out? Or stick with him. Not confident he will get a game everyweek... I have $90k in the bank

 

[Goats]

I either go

Sidey > Luke Parker

Or

Sidey > Libba ( Bank 200k )

Or

Do nothing and have Menadue, Davis or Keays cover his ass.

I'd bring in Libba - leaves you with plenty of coin for rookie corrections and your first upgrade.

 

[Here2tellyouwhy]

Thoughts on how long M. McGovern sticks around in Adelaide?

I'd say it's him vs Milera for that last spot up forward, the other goes for Cameron when he's fit.
Cameron offers more than both, especially up field.
Also with Milera a similar type of player, McGovern might get the nod over him as he stretches the oppositions defense a bit more.

Until his manager can get the lad a lifetime deal to West Coast Eagles.

The Gov was in the 40 man all Australian squad last year.
Hang in there it was a risk but cold pay off big time.
