Thanks for the teams Geeds And for all the experts advice on this page
.
Just wondering if i can get some helpful advice here from anyone, am running 12th overall in s/c. I have 8 trades left and want to use 3 this week to cover byes and it will also finalise my team in full

1-Ellis out for Adcock/Waters or Shaw? Im leaning towards Adcock for a bit of extra cash
2-Hayes out for Selwood/Thompson or Swan- Hayes has been good but not great and time for an upgrade in the bye round
3-Hall out for Zorko- bit late to jump on the bandwagon but will provide a great 8th in forward line after byes and he is a gun, hall prob wont get many more games.

Please can i get your thoughts on the first two? I have the money for all the above but nothing really left over

Nice work!

For Ellis I’d go with Waters. Shaw might be a bit too pricy and this season he seems to be a lot more injury prone. And I like the Hayes upgrade, Swan seems like a safe choice. Though if you wait a week or two you could get thompson for cheap.

I would bring in Waters or Shaw in ya backs id be leaning towards Waters as Shaws coming back from injury and i would defianely bring in Swan and bringin in Zorko for Hall sounds pretty good also if you survive this round i think you will go close to winning the $50.0000.

Had traded him out, but having second thoughts, especially as A.Kennedy & Sexton are probably not going to be as reliable. Just worried on how many games Treloar has played already (i.e. Sheeds saying max of 14 games for young-uns). Will think it over.

Yiorgakis June 21, 2012 at 8:49 pm

It’s a risk as I think he will get rested at some stage Andy. He has only played 8 games so should get another 5-6. I don’t mind if he plays a couple more now, then gets rested for a few weeks, then come back and plays a few more. He has better JS than Sexton and Crapps of which I have both and should be handy as an F9..

Plus I need his points for this week ! :D I’m not too worried if he misses a few games later on as I have Milera as F8, who has pretty good JS. The good thing is though he is still in the team after last week’s performance! That is a positive.

Looking at 8 donuts this week :(

0 in the forwards, 2 in rucks, 1 mid, 5 in the backs, not going to be a good weekend, atleast I have pretty much a full midfield and forward line which are my highest scoring positions with only one forward and two mid premiums on the bench, hopefully my forwards and midfielders can carry the load this week for me, will need some big scores though.

Is 4 trades left cutting it a bit fine? Full premium side apart from Lake, Ellis, Giles and Zorko.

I’m im the same position, only 5 trades and S. Shaw rather than Lake. I’m just going to hold on tight now, and when there are cheap premiums finish my upgrades and leave the rest for injuries etc. A mate of mine is doing great this season but has 1 trade remaining – he’s going to have a tough second half to the season!

I’m in the same boat too. I have 6 trades, $33k and my concerns are Bugg and Mohr. I am thinking that Zorko is definitely a keeper. I can live with Hawkins, Lake and M Clarke.

268 overall but I am also keen on winning the leagues. Not sure whether to go the hack now with trades or settle down for the long haul.

T/U Go the hack
T/D You will need those trades for LTIs

whats the go with Duffield? surely he cant be overlooked again, he must be injured? Freo have lost a few players to injuries this week and he still doesn’t come in. Not even named as an emergency and it seems that Spurr is ahead of him. Something has to be wrong here, he is a key man to their defence…..

FURL is teaching him a lesson in an attempt tp improve his defensive efforts.
Harvey did the same in Rd 3 2009, albeit just for the one game.

I expect he will be back in the next couple of weeks although if they happen to keep winning it will be difficult to justify.

Spurr will need injuries to play again regularly (if at all) this year as he is behind:
Broughton
Johnson
Ibbotson
Suban
Duffield
Silvagni
for four available positions.

Should I trade Treloar with a b.e. of 132 for Crozier, and gain a lot of profit even though his JS is high, or trade Kennedy for Crozier, and gain less profit, get rid of Kennedy’s shifty JS?

I’ve got both a long and short term dilemma here.

In the long run, what would be better for my team?

Out: Treloar, Kennedy.
In: M Johnson(Freo)/Cloke+100k, Crozier.
8 Trades left.
Out: Kennedy, Tomlinson, Smedts.
In: Cloke, Crozier, Whiley(GWS defender. Placed in the forward pocket this week. Big risk, but I cannot work these trades any other way.) I have no D/M DPP in my mids so I can’t bring Gibson in.
7 trades left.

Both trades leave me with a small amount of cash

Sure, I’ll be taking a hit on Treloar’s price this week, and I’ll use up an extra trade with the second option, but aside from last week, Treloar has been scoring well enough. If he gets back to his old scoring habits, I could reconsider trading him out around round 18.

My current team is.

Deledio, Scotland, Broughton, Goddard, Clarke, Golby, Ellis, S Shaw, Tomlinson

Swan, Ablett, Pendlebury, Dal Santo, Shuey, Priddis, Shiel, Adams

Cox, Giles, Jenkins, Redden

Dangerfield, Martin, Hale, Franklin, Harvey, Zorko, Treloar, Smedts, Kennedy.

The first option will give me
Deledio, Scotland, Goddard, Broughton, Golby, Clarke, Ellis, S Shaw, Tomlinson
Unchanged mids.

Unchanged rucks.

Martin, Franklin, Johnson, Hale, Zorko, Harvey, Dangerfield, Crozier, Tomlinson.

The second option gives me

Goddard, Deledio, Scotland, Broughton, Golby, Clarke, Ellis, S Shaw, Whiley.
Dangerfield, Cloke, Martin, Franklin, Hale, Harvey, Zorko, Treloar, Crozier.

The second option greatly strengthens my bench stocks at the cost of a trade, and I get less doughunts in round 13.

So gazing into the crystal ball, which future would be more fruitful?

Tomlinson, Smedts, A Kennedy OUT
Whiley, Crozier, Cloke IN
Thumbs up
Or
Treloar, A Kennedy Out
M Johnson, Crozier IN
Thumbs down.

I’d go with Swan, but it’s close; Watson, Joelwood and even perhaps JP Kennedy are all options.. Except if you don’t have Ablett. Then Ablett wins. Ablett is to Supercoach as Lionel Messi is to Association Football.

Pick Ablett if you don’t have him. Even if you can’t afford him. Sacrifice a rookie to the Supercoach Deity. Which is Ablett.

Pick Ablett even if you don’t want him.

Just pick Ablett.

Hope I helped.

Devon Smith should go first. Ka plong.

Adam Treloar should be galvanised with psychotic terror and pump out hundreds to avoid his inevitable demise.

Treloar has gone up $232K with a BE of 132 after scoring 7 last week after his bye. Get rid of him and lock in that price rise.

Got Zaha, Coniglio, Treloar and Hargrave. 12 trades $100k and going for league wins, 3-4th in most.

Thinking Treloar out for Cloke, Hargrave for Darley (or other cheap def?) this week then Delaney up to Scotland next week and then work Coniglio/Adams/SShaw out to get Thompson and Suckling in, any thoughts?

Def are weak currently Lids/Gods/Waters/Lake/Demps/Delaney/Hargrave/Shaw/Broughton

Also any thoughts on holding onto Zaha or Conigs would be good?

Thanks all!

Going away next week and no access to s/c after thurs for few weeks. need to get team settled and wanna get two prem’s next week.
Need to get gibson in this, but not sure for who:
T/U Treloar (high b/e and price likely to drop, but playing this week, will he get rested soon?)
T/D Pfeiffer (logical choice to stop donut, but j/s?, low b/e when comes back next week)

Had planned Treloar to M. Johnson trade this week. However, as i will get easily beat in LoEC & should win cash league, wondering whether to save the trade? Any thoughts, suggestions would be appreciated as Smedts, A.Kennedy & Sexton probably enough rookies to worry about (Zorko, Treloar, S.Shaw & Ellis reasonably good cover) Rnd 14 team if all fit & i trade in M.Johnson: –

H.Shaw, Godd, Lids, Broughton, M.Johnson, Newman, Lake, S.Shaw (e), Ellis
GAJ, Pendles, S.Thompson, Priddis, NDS, Stanton, Adams (e), A.Kennedy
Cox, Giles, Redden, Hamling (DPP for Hale ruck cover)
Buddy, Sidey, Pav, D.Martin, Cloke, Hale, Zorko, Sexton (e), Smedts

If i don’t do Treloar trade, would still have 9 trades & 254K in the bank & would get Goodes, Prem Def, Carrots, Danger & / or Beams when they reach attractive prices. If i do trade, would have 85K & 8 trades left.

Thumbs UP: Use trade for Treloar to M.Johnson
Thumbs DOWN: keep trade (& trade out A.Kennedy to Carrots Rnd15)

Comment for Treloar & A.Kennedy out for M.Johnson & Crozier. Or any other thoughts.

Trades are running low! Which combination should I work on getting over the upcoming weeks? First one is definitely achievable by bringing in Beams this week, Thompson next week, & Carrazzo the next (when both should be bottoming out).
The second open has me bringing in Swanny this week though!

Thumbs up – Thompson (Mid) / Carrazzo (Def) / Beams (Fwd)
Thumbs Down – Swan (Mid) / Carrazzo (Def) / Swan (Fwd)

Thanks. Would either be Swan or Beams this week. Thompson next (if I went with that option), Carrazzo the following. If I go with the Goodes option I’d grab him & bring him back in in a few weeks. Leaning towards Swan & Goodes I think / hope.

Mids need some work:
Ablett, Selwood, Thompson, Watson, Coniglio, Horsley, Sexton, L Brown
Salary cap $389, 11 trades, going for league in which I am 8th, so need to win in medium term but also want to win finals. Fine with a doughnut or two this week though to get more wins over the journey.

Thumbs up: Coniglio -> Swan, save cash to upgrade Horsley to a super premium down the line.
Thumbs down: Coniglio, Horsley, Brown -> Priddis, J Kennedy, Gibson this week

I am trading Treloar out this week, I had hoped he would be an excellent D7 for the next month or so while I upgraded other lines but I just cannot stomach another single digit score. Some say it was just one bad week, some say it was just because of the wet … maybe, but have you seen the weather report for this weekend? Do you think Melbourne will give him a free run? I just cannot see it myself.

Anyway, this is the bullet I will be biting but it does leave me with a bench coverage option. My fwd bench cover will now be looking like being two of D.Smith, Sexton and Hall for the moment but I cannot see any fwd rookie prospects on the horizon. No Couch, maybe I need to grab Patton or hope Sexton/Hall come good? I am not sure.

Anybody have any helpful thoughts?

Stubbsy June 22, 2012 at 1:01 pm

Jestar, I’d much prefer Treloar over D Smith as my mid/fwd cover for the remainder of the year. I think Treloar’s JS is far better than Smiths. Who would you feel better about if you had to have one the field in the finals? I’d be worried Smith could wear either vest, plus I think if you take out each of their highest and lowest scores Treloar looks far more reliable. Smith may yet miss out this week too. I have both and this week will likely be trading Smith to Sidebottom, meaning Trelor will be F9/M7, and unlikley to be needed at all, with Porps (F8) effectively covering any Mid and Fwd out by swinging a starting Mid/Fwd into the mids.

I wouldn’t know what the guy looks like and I’ve never seen him play but it could be a good POD.
I unfortunately jumped on the Chris Newman bandwagon two rounds ago and he’s rewarded me with a 56 and a 60 so I’m sticking with the safe option and getting Carrazo in 2 weeks.
I guess the question you have to ask yourself is would you rather be going into a final needing 100 points for the win with Carrazo or Grima?
Carrazo for mine.

Thinking of burning 5 trades in the next two weeks (or three, waiting for Carrazzo), then sitting pat with my other 4 trades until I need them for LTIs or finals.

Out: Hargrave, Smedts/Ellis, McDonald, Giles, Treloar.
In: Carrazzo, S. Shaw, Gibson/Crozier, NicNat, Dangerfield/Chapman.

Would leave me with…
5 prem DEFs, Lake D6, Ellis/S. Shaw/Smedts D7 and D8, permadonut D9
6 prem MIDs, 2 rookies on the bench with at least one being a MID/FWD DPP.
2 prem RUCs, 2 rookies (Redden & Stephenson)
3 prem FWDs, 4 mid-pricers, 2 rookies on bench (Sexton+Couch or similar)

The Ellis vs Smedts choice is easy enough (keep Ellis if the budget allows). Plenty of other people have asked about Gibson and Crozier so I can piggyback off their answers. So I’ll ask the third question.

TU: Dangerfield (111 avg, 106 three rd avg, 29 stdev)
TD: Chapman (106, 125, 24)

Getting rid of Zaha and can’t afford Sidebum or Beams. So its down to these two.

T/U – Goodes
T/D – Chapman

Not so worried about this week. More about the end of the season and finals time.

Whose the best bet long-term?
