Round 7 Trades

[TheBeardAmigos]

I want to get Menzel...

same.... was put off when he wasnt named round 1

 

[jumpin_jack]

Mcveigh is gonna be a nice price after this weekends game. 2nd upgrade next week! Hmmmm

 

[cdcanman]

I've done exactly the same - and also praying laird gets up !!

What's the doubt with Laird? I haven't been paying attention much over the weekend.

 

[juddola]

Gee defenders are really sh*******t this year. I think its the worst I remember.

Last year we at least had all the current locks (Shaw, Rance, Simmo, Laird) plus Tmac doing well, Picken, Hodge and a few others. Did I mention the defenders this year are sh*t.

hurt his toe, they thought it might be broken - havent heard anything since

 

[Thuggee_Cult]

When is the last time Rockliff put a group of solid scores together?
It's been awhile now.
I'm steering clear until he proves he can get back to producing consistently again.
Smells a lot like this year's burnman to me.

For your sakes, I hope I'm wrong

Nothing worse than underperforming premos, especially in the middle. I'm stuck with Wines' barge arse clogging up my team with his spuddiness at the moment

I hear you re underperforming premos but Im stuck for options and only have 540k to spend.

The only other premos I can afford in that range are Kade Simpson , yo-yo Toby Greene or Viney and I'd rather take the risk on Rocky.

TBH I haven't seen yesterdays game yet but I will in the next couple of days and keep an eye on him

Bruised toe, didn't really participate in the last qtr. Will have scans to see why he is so toey.

My bad, he is looking like a lock.

Rested final quarter with "bruised" toe - they were 6 goals up so said to be precaution. Still some doubt for this week tho will have to wait until later in the week to see I think

Such a stud!

He's improved so much! Hinkley persisting with him over the last couple years is paying off

He's also been robbed of so many points this year.. he was best on ground a few times when he scored 85s

I can now see why you are considering him.
I think I would go the other way myself.
I'd rather lock in a forward or defender keeper than taking a punt on a maybe premo mid. Even if you have to play them in the middle via DPP for a while. Those nearly premo's just kill you if they don't work out.

 

[keithrichards]

Early days...

Weitering>Smith
Menadue>Buddy

 

[lamaros]

I want to get Menzel...

Don't, he is a spud.

 

[srobbo]

I want to get Menzel...

Thoughts crossed my mind too.

Sorry can't agree there. He had broken ribs twice plus got KOed last year. Hardly a typical season.

Once he returned he went

126
101
50
135
115
145
122
146
152

for the last 9 rounds at an average of 121.

Yes he's not 100% match fit yet but still got 117 on the weekend against the best midfield in the comp.

I was in the minority and kept him while injured this year. There's no guarantees in this game but I'm happy with what I've seen the last two weeks.

 

[dangerdotcom]

Really not sure what to do here.
Should I hold my trade?
Thinking of upgrading Libba or is it too early for that?

Dea to J Smith via tippy and short.

 

[toxic]

People not convinced of Cox?

Buckley talking of fitting he and Cloke in same team - so clearly wants him to keep playing.
Watching him yesterday he was a massive part of Collingwood's comeback.

Think he'll keep getting better.

Its the pies rookie week

Grab em both

id be looking to get Josh Smith in maybe
BE of -108 and is a mid rookie

 

[catstragic]

Ben ken / menopause > callab ward/smith.

Team is shaping up nicely

4.2
7.1
2.0
4.2

5 rooks left to upgrade and ill probably have to upgrade sam gray eventually. At least he is a pod now.

Have gone from 75k to 12 k overall in the last four rounds. Finally feel like im getting somewhere.

Anyone got read on tuckers j/s ?

 

[Lumbajac]

DEF: Shaw, Laird, Houli, Hartley, Weitering, Byrne-Jones (Ruggles, Dea)
MID: Titchell, Zaha, Ablett, Hall, Hunter, Ben Ken, Mills, Petracca (RGray, Keays, Oliver)
RUC: Goldy, Grimley (Lobbe)
FWD: DMart, Dahlhaus, Barlow, Wells, MAdams, Kerridge (Tippa, Menadue)
205K in bank.


Obviously Weitering, Dea, Ben Ken, Grimley, Lobbe, MAdams, Tippa, and Menadue are going to need to find their way out over the next few weeks. I think Weitering and Dea are the most pressing at this time.

I really dislike my ruck situation, and I think with Jacobs bottoming out this week, I might do a ton of DPP action to do Dea/Weitering --> Jacobs and Smith leaving me with 250K for another Upgrade/Downgrade next week. Or am I taking the wrong Ruck? Anyone else have any thoughts?

 

[jjsmitty8]

So this week all I need to do to have a decent week is get Rance back, hope that Laird and Weitering get up, trade Matt Dea, offload Davis, Hewett and Menadue for Petracca, Keays and Smith, upgrade Kennedy and get Papley to crack the ton.

 

[Pedsy]

Don't, he is a spud.

Wash your mouth out!
On what do you base this poorly formed opinion?

Or just trying to keep people of your POD?
