Round 5 trades

[Dark Sharks]

Must be one of the few people who is staying completely away from Hill.


I guess cardio just isn't my thing..

 

[Gene Simmons]

Which option sounds better?

Option 1
Howe -> Simpkin (via Starcevich)

Option 2
Howe -> Ridley

 

[Gresham2King]

Avoided the carnage this week, so probably just trade a few rookies. Pickett for Serong or do I try get Williamson down back. 19k in the bank

 

[Andrew Birch]

Which option sounds better?

Option 1
Howe -> Simpkin (via Starcevich)

Option 2
Howe -> Ridley

Simpkin will average more than Ridley

 

[06Premiers]

Why not both, like me?

Had enough cash to go Howe/Taylor to Ridley/Simpkin

Unfortunately I only have $10k in the kitty to start...

Solid trades by the way

Ouch, well yeah I'd say Simpkin is a better chance to finish top 6 for his position.

 

[hoddo]

Have reversed trades purely so they won't be locked in by tonight's game, but still plan to go with what I posted (Howe>Daniel, Dunkley>Simpkin)
BUT
When trading in keepers I try to stick to a rule that I only bring in players who narrowly missed out on my initial team as those are the ones the research suggested were the next best. No player spent as long in my preseason team only to miss a final spot that Caleb Daniel so I'm happy with that trade, but Simpkin was nowhere on my radar and is only being considered because of his vast improvement this year. Will it last? By comparison, Wingard came very close to being a starting forward and has certainly performed. Have till Saturday evening to decide between the two. Wingard is the one according to my rule, but can be so inconsistent and Simpkin looks SO good.

Option 1
Howe -> Simpkin (via Starcevich)

Option 2
Howe -> Ridley

I'm not confident that Ridley is a season long keeper, so I'd go Simpkin.

 

[FFB1]

Does McKenna coming back do anything to Ridley’s scoring vast ?

Potentially but last I heard McKenna might play forward this year, though I cant see that experiment lasting long unless its a surprising success.

Howe to Haynes. Leaves 56k

Then tossing up which rookie to bring in - Serong, Green, Hill, Williamson or Young. Will most likely be for Taylor or Brown pending selections.

I think I will give Cogs another week and see what his role is

Now I am thinking perhaps I could trade Howe & Taylor/Brown to Oliver/Walters/Simpkin/Gaff/Danger and Williamson/Hill

 

[Here2tellyouwhy]

Collectively. As a board.

Ridley old mate. You're getting so *en broke hey

I would get rid of Brayshaw and Giorgio/Sturt for Simpkin and Serong/Green

Edit: just realised you don't have enough in the bank for that. Get Butler instead of Simpkin and then get whichever good mid rookie you can afford.

 

[Dark Sharks]

Might wet my pants on Ridley and go

Howe > Maynard
Fyfe > Neale

 

[Caztheconquerer]

suits me as Im not taking him

Any reason why your not taking him vast?

 

[Leeroy Brown 15]

Howe > Ridley
Rozee > Petracca

People should listen to Mr Birch. He knows his scheiza.

You wouldn't catch me trading him in this week

 

[Santoz]

Does McKenna coming back do anything to Ridley’s scoring vast ?

McKenna, if he does play back, will likely cut into Saad's scoring as opposed to Ridley.

Ridley plays 3rd tall.

 

[vast]

Any reason why your not taking him vast?

just being conservative and sticking with a proven player. Hoping to get Bont. We will see what the teams produce.

[vanders]

Who has better JS out of Williamson and Young?

 

[Sherman41]

Brander and Noble being out are some spanners in the works but nothing to drastic.

Will hold all trades until teams tomorrow. Too much of a risk trading early unless you have to.

Most likely trades
Howe- Ridley
Noble/Brander to Hill.

Then can do one up one down next week fingers crossed .

 

[Loose at HB]

Who has better JS out of Williamson and Young?

I can't speak for Young but Williamson's JS is rock solid. Club rates him really highly internally and with Newman gone for the season he's basically taken over that spot. Would be stunned if he was dropped, should only miss games if injured
