Round 9 Trades

[cardje]

Monty's quite injury prone these days. And even if he wasn't, I wouldn't be trading in a 32 year old veteran when there are so many young guns in their prime. Treloar at the same price is much better value.

Yeah Treloar looks good... just worried about having to many GWS and they have so many good mids they swap every week who gets the big score

Hoping for a bit of advice. The objective is to get Rockliff in, with $22k in hand. I'd prefer to hold onto the mid rookies I have. Touk has Prestia out which means more points for him hopefully. Round 12 looks like the time I'd like to get rid of him, He should be just about maxed out, and obviously has the bye. Cripps and CEY both have the bye round 11, when I have barely anyone out, and therefore are playing round 12 and 13 where I'm a bit shorter.

I'm leaning towards

Tarrant to Rockliff (via Krak)
and
Lonie to Dale

Lonie has a B/E of 100, which means he's only going backwards for a while. Dale has been named on the field, so hopefully he'll avoid the vest. He shouldn't ever be needed on the field for me though with Clark and Krak there

Can anyone see any other ideas for me? I could go Mcintosh down instead, but the back rookies are starting to look encouraging in weeks to come with Hamling debuting and a few others close to a debut. The other option would be Sloane straight to Rocky, but at a $100k loss and two weeks of him on the pine I don't think I could bring myself to do it


EDIT: Going back on this, I've gone on an Asho level rant
tldr is basically thoughts on the bolded

Hold Mcintosh he's basically guaranteed a spot in the tigers side. I agree with lonie trade but Tarrant i think we should hold because he has a solid bye round

Just trade in all of them then. They play Carlton and Melbourne in the last two weeks of SC finals.

Treloar has been very consistent though, apart from the 1 out of character spud score he'd be averaging 113

 

[Figster]

If you are thinking of downgrading to Hamling wait as he has a bye round 11. If he plays the next 2 games would be a perfect downgrade option round 12.

 

[FAILTOSUCCEED]

Cripps > Rocky
Tarrant > Lids

Watch cripps go 100+

Wish I could to a double upgrade.

 

[Remon Tea]

Undecided on where to upgrade..

Prestia > Rockliff is a lock

McIntosh > premo mid v Tarrant > premo fwd.

I did not notice this lol, that excites me greatly.

Depends on your structure currently but premo mids will almost always score more than premo fwds...

Who do you suggest I trade out for Rockliff then?

 

[SDHawk]

TBC is killing me...really want to upgrade to Sauce, Mumford or Blicavs but only $32k in the bank...Any suggestions on how to make this happen?? Not really seeing any remotely reliable rookies this week!

Do I move one of Lumumba/Tarrant to a Dale/Amon or just hold off until the byes?

 

[Big Fozza]

Stuff it! Getting JPK in..

Tarrant > Lambert (Allows me to swing T.Mitchell back down to my forwards to complete my forward line)

Lumumba > JPK via McKenzie.

Next week -

Clark to a rookie mid via Lambert

CEY > Ward

have a look at where and when you need players on the ground more during your byes.

I dont even live close to Tyabb you cretin, I have been through there and Hastings to play golf down in the Peninsula plenty of times and they're great folk despite your typically arrogant jibe at the semi rural folk. Add around $2mil to the median house price and you might be close to the suburb i live in, inner city cave dweller.

jesus christ man. rural folk are scum and so are the inner city folk. You sound like you've just crawled out of our PM's arseh*le. weirdest dude.

IF you wanted to you could go lumumba to glenn via dmac. i think that glenn will be getting games from next week - obviously a risk that he won't AND also rd 12 bye.

this would give you enough cash to upgrade bellchambers to anyone. you lose your def/mid link though and would have to play lever on the ground (which you might wanna do anyway)

biggest thing is if you think that Glenn will get games from next week and how he fits into your rd 12 bye versus how much you wanna get rid of TBC.

 

[Thuggee_Cult]

Bye bye Touk and Tarrant, it has been emotional. Dale and Hanners in

Leaves me 18 trades and this:




I might hold off on trades until bye rounds.

I think you may be the weird one.. Follow the right afl team but Tom Brady really?? The guy is an out and out twat

solid looking side

 

[Asho81]

N.Brown --> Amon.
Then coming in for TBC, will bring in either of Rocky or Buddy…. if its Buddy, he will be my VC tonight against Blues which is making me lean toward picking him up….

I think Buddy will kick 8-10 tonight, and may be a viable VC option.
Rocky will come in on Sunday night and hope he doesn't go up too much in price

He is (I am) probably the second greatest human behind your boy Tony Bromo

Very solid.. Need only 3 upgrades by my count.. Do you have plans in place to get Bobby Gray tho?

Hanson has been back for 3 weeks now. His inclusion didn't greatly effect Tarrant's previous 2 scores of 78 & 78 If you look at North's SC scores last week, almost every player was well down on their season averages. As a team they were well and truly pantsed and their individual scores reflect that.

If you want to trade him out this week, fine just do it. But it's annoying when people make posts such as yours to justify their itchy trade finger.

Yeah I agree with this. I'm not sure how his role has changed at all with Hansen returning.
Without Hansen, Tarrant was playing on the opposition's best tall forward.

People are talking as if he was playing loose or on less dangerous forwards before Hansen returned. Simply not the case.
He may lose the odd point because of Hansen's strength at intercept marking, but that alone doesn't explain his low score last week. As you said, a pair of 78's the previous 2 weeks seems to show he can score just fine with Hansen around

Who goes into the ruck for tbc? Ryder?
Also, get Rockliff. B/E is only 66. Buddy's is 100. While Buddy could well score better tonight, Rockliff will be much better in the long run

Taking only 1 mark last week really hurt his score. The previous 2 weeks he had 6 & 7 marks. For a KP def to get a good SC score, he needs to take a lot of marks as McDonald has done every week.

Nah TBC is just wasting space on the FWD bench. He's $330,000 wasted. I have Blicavs and Goldy in rucks. Apart from playing against Carlton, I just feel I could get more points from Buddy as VC this week, than I could from Rockliff.
