Trades Round 7 trades; Hayes to Hayes and then??

[Exambolor]

I’ve gone with this in my trades.

Hayes/Grundy/Xerri for Parker/Keays/S.Hayes

Keays is a POD and a valuable upgrade in my mids (he’s done well in my AFL Fantasy team too) and will be secure points and gets another rookie out of the mids (just JHF and NoD left there)

Parker is a fallen premo and a POD also, and will be handy in the forward line and it also reduces my forward line down to one rookie in Rachele (frustratingly couldn’t trade him)

and I went with S. Hayes purely becuase there’s not too much choice, he’s gonna be Ports No.1 ruck for the foreseeable future and it’s saves me a bit of money. Wanted to go with Witts for security but he was too much.

Left with around 90k in the bank.

Now I’m hoping I can now hold for a couple of weeks.

With me already doing a Hayes to Hayes trade and a Jackson to Witts trade I will need to use a boost to trade Xerri as well.

I will only have about 455k left to upgrade Xerri, best option under that price is probably Brodie, Rozee another possible option but he's more risky.

Why trade Jackson?

 

[Maybe Tomorrow]

Nah bugger that mate, I'm bringing in the Ollie Pig next week. LOL!

Have $345k leftover to upgrade JHF next week to him.

You could do 2 up 1 down next week with that much bank. Will make you more points than blowing the lot on Oliver.

 

[Maybe Tomorrow]

Going on Noble's press conference it sounds like Goldy will still play mainly forward with CCJ number 1 ruck.

Tom De Konning likes this.

 

[Plugger35]

Why trade Jackson?

I could hold him but he's scored two 60s the last 2 weeks and he's starting to lose cash, I also want to jump on Witts before he rises further in price.

Witts is up against Collingwood without Grundy so he is likely to get another big score and have another big price jump, it's time to jump on him.

So I've updated my trades with X out.
X, Hinge and Hayes
To
Piggy, Clarke and Hayes.
Rioli survives another week.

 

[Maybe Tomorrow]

More a Round 8 trade, but Goldy playing first ruck sitting at F6 as a RUCK/FWD for $430k with a 155 BE this week is mighty tempting. Can have a good look this week with CCJ in the team and if he scores decent, he's straight in next week I reckon.

Xerri is out for 4 weeks. You're assuming he doesn't come back in a assume?

Cause if he does you get 3 weeks of Goldy as number ruck, then back to playing forward.

A hot spot in the foot of a ruckman could be weeks could be months.

OK but please don't break Witts. You can get him in but don't jump on him

What a year.
Gawn and ROB or Witts look like the two best ruck options.

So far.......

 

[buttox]

So far.......

Most years we have 2 rucks playing at this stage.
Maybe a rookie thrown in like Flynn last year.
Most teams posted in here still have that.
Ruck cover is now back to normal.
Hard to get.

[Gene Simmons]

I'm going to pull the trigger on 3 trades... Which option do you think is better? Or any other suggestion?

Option 1
Grundy -> Gawn
J.Hayes -> S.Hayes
Xerri -> Parker

Option 2
Grundy -> S.Hayes
J.Hayes -> Cripps (via Martin DPP)
Xerri -> Touk (via Brodie DPP)

My current team:

Grundy to Hayes.
Xerri to Heeney
Jackson to a premo mid. (via Cogs I'm assuming)
Pray one of Rosas and Dixon play so you don't get a donut.
I would be holding English.
He is only a few weeks away from returning and is a lock as a top 6 forward.

 

[Soggy2112]

Looks like Rachele will have to stay for me. Hopefully his next 100+ score can be this week

 

[Rioli2Rioli]

Surely they wont drop Xerri, he s their best ruck.

Xerri is injured 3-4 weeks

 

[Father Jack]

Can I trust Heeney more than Parker? I've been burnt so many times by Heeney that I'm loathe to risk him again.

 

[Blackhawk42]

Why trade Jackson?

He sucks. Time on ground is putrid as of late. Had him for 2 weeks and this is a great excuse to move him on and worry about him in a years time.

 

[Rioli2Rioli]

Why trade Jackson?

I also have Jackson & English and really want to keep both for the DPP flexibility cover and both actually being decent F6 options
Just think there will be more carnage to come and we are chewing through trades like it has a use by date of july 30

Need to keep quality and i already made the mistake to trade cripps - Butters thinking he will be 3 weeks

 

[Soggy2112]

Can I trust Heeney more than Parker? I've been burnt so many times by Heeney that I'm loathe to risk him again.

I think both could be top 6, I’m taking Parker now while he’s cheap, $544k seems a bit high for Heeney, think he’ll be cheaper.

I love Heeney in my fwd line. He gets SC points just for being there.

Parker has been playing forward hence the dpp.
He would require a move back to the mids IMO to out score Heeney.
