Trade Talk R12

Written by Motts on June 6 2011

Its weeks like this you’re reminded of the SC mantra: “never trade out a premium unless they have suffered a long term injury”. There’s a few blokes this applies to in Round 12. Chapman, Franklin and Montagna all come to mind.

What’s your trading situation this week?

  1. Really Struggling. What should I do? Want to use 1 trade as I am versing top on the ladder. Have 101thousand in bank. Horrible Rucks, but I don’t know where I should trade/improve.

    Def: Adcock, Birchall, Goddard, Heppell, Shaw (syd), Martin
    [Gram, Cribbin, Andreoli]
    Mid: Mundy, Thompson, Bartel, Fyfe, Trengove, Higgins
    [Swallow, I Smith, Mzungu]
    Ruck: Z Smith, Warnock
    [Hille, Keeffe]
    Fwd: Pavlich, Roughead, Goodes, Tom Lynch (GC), Krakouer, Darling, Dangerfield
    [Tom Lynch, Ferguson, Von Bertouch]

    Any help thanks.

  2. Need a forward. Who will average more for the rest of the year?

    Rioli thumbs up

    Fyfe thumbs down

  3. Is Lower to Enright advisable?

    This can be done for $35k and would save me doing two trades. Does having the bye in the finals put to bed any thoughts of trading him in?

    Thumbs up/down??????

  6. Do I need to trade?? I feel my team is pretty much complete (apart from a few weak bench players).
    Im Coming 731 overall, 60k spare.

    My only concern is round 14 where my Collingwood boys will be benched (forcing me to play Hibberd & cop a likely donut). Should I burn a trade and bring Puopolo (which I shouldve done ages ago!) in now for a bench Back before he hits 300k?? He seems to be consistently putting up solid scores.

    Deledio, Gibbs, H.Shaw, Fisher, Heppel, Broughton, Lower
    (McKernan, Buckley, Markovic)

    Swan, Pendles, Bartel, Joelwood, Scott Thompson, Cotchin
    (Mzungu, Atley, Hibberd)

    Coxy, Smith
    (Sandi, McCauley)

    Franklin, Goodes, Dawes, N.Reiwoldt, Fyfe, Petrie, Darling
    (Duncan, Matera, Tappscott)

    Suggestions, thoughts, criticisms, etc are all welcome.

  7. I broke the #1 rule and traded out N. Roo weeks ago for ROK and haven’t looked back.

    My fwd line is abysmal. Have $309K in the bank to upgrade useless players such as Knights, Gamble, Matera and Richardson. Need to bring in J. Tippet down the track to swap with Petrie when Sandi and/or Jamar comes back. Fyfe, Roughead and Kennedy are all on the radar, and will keep an eye on Howe after a good debut game.

  8. I am playing my best mate this weekend, with $50 & most importantly bragging rights up for grabs.

    Current Squad:
    Backs: Goddard, Gibbs, Heppell, Enright, Lower, Duigan, Harbrow
    (Bench: Stanley, Puopolo, Hibberd)

    Mids: Swan, Mundy, Selwood, Ablett, Deledio, Krakouer
    (Bench: Conca, Harris, Jacobs)

    Fwds: Pavlich, Johnson, Goodes, J Riewoldt, Knights, Rioli, Mzungu
    (Bench: Darling, Hurley, Lynch)

    Would love your opinion…. Thinking of strengthening my midfield, especially with Swan possible out this week. Current bank account – $650,000

    Trades:
    Conca > Pendlebury
    Harris > Priddis

    Any thoughts??

    Thumbs Up – Good Trades
    Thumbs Down – There are better trades (eg. hodge, boyd)

  9. Ok it seems like a long shot but would like to know a few peoples thoughts on the following trade.

    Darling – 320k B/E of 96 (according to FF)
    to
    Didak – 280k B/E of 41 (according to FF)

    Kind of a sideways trade but Darling seems to be playing more up on the wing then inside the 50, not sure if i like that move considering since he has moved to the wing he has had his worst 2 weeks SC wise.

    Didak has shown that he is back to about 85 90% fit, with Swan, beams and most likely Daisy out this week, i can see Didak getting a bit more of a run in the middle.

    Darling was never going to be on the field come finals time, but he would be a nice bench player.

  10. One last gun mid to go alongside Pendle, Swan, Joelwood, Joey and Cross.

    Mundy $486K OR Ablett $566K OR wait for Thomas in rd14 $531K and rising.

    What’s your advice?

  11. Not sure who to trade, any advice would be great

    Only going for a league win, 13 trades left and $200k in the bank

    Would like to get Newman and Rioli eventually, but thinking of shutting up shop for a few weeks

    DEF – Fisher, Deledio, H Shaw, Goddard, Gibbs, Broughton, Puopolo (Duigan, Stanley, Toy)
    MID – Swan, Judd, Selwood, Sylvia, Hodge, Heppell (Harris, I Smith, Mzungu)
    RUC – Cox, Z Smith (Sandi, J Tipp)
    FWD – Pavlich, Frankiln, Goodes, N Roo, J Roo, Petrie, Darling (Knights, Lynch, C Richardson)

  12. its pointless getting pendlebury this week when his out the next. wait after the bye and bring him in to lead your squad to victory!! and your backline is looking abit weak with names such as Lower, Duigan , and Harbrow still in your squad

  13. Current team is

    Backs: Goddard, Delidio, Adcock,Gibbs, Broughton, Heppell, Lower
    (Stanley, L.Thompson Watson)

    Mids: Pendlebury, Mundy, Priddis, Boyd, Joelwood, S.Thompson
    (Hibberd, I. Smith, Mzungu)

    Rucks: Sandilands, Cox
    (Smith, Tippett)

    Forwards: Pavlich, Franklin, S.Johnson, Goodes, N. Riewoldt, Petrie, J Riewoldt
    (Krakouer, Siposs, Tapscott)

    Here is what I am thinking for my last trades till finals (LTI).

    Tapscott for Callinan and Stanley for Fisher

    or

    Tapscott for Winmar and Stanley for Shaw.

    I need either Winmar or Callinan for the DPP so that I can rotate Mzungu, Smith Krack on the benches as cover.

    T/UP or T/DN

  16. Don’t chastise* me too much here…

    Thinking about grabbing LeCras before his price rises above what it was when I traded him out for Tappy after his over reaction to a bad cramp in Rnd 1.

    Would have to be a downgrade of Matera -> Howe (or similar)

    Then I’d trade C Richardson -> LeCras

    Would mean my FWDs would read: Pav, Buddy, Stevie J, Goodes, Boomer, NRoo, Lecca (Darling, I. Smith, Howe)

    Would leave me with 10 trades and stuff all in the bank.

    Thoughts?

  18. Team completed:

    Deledio Goddhard Enright Adcock Broughton Hurley Heppell
    Subs: Lower, Puopolo, A. Johnson (=McKernan)

    Swan Pendles Selwood Ablett Judd Boyd

    Currently in the 2000’s overall but only 6 trades left… (have been doing 2x trades for 9 weeks in a row!)

    I see no reason to trade until at least Swan/Fisher have their last bye out of the way, as I have plenty of good rookeis and DPP’s all over the place…

    Please feel free to suggest any improvements or point out blind spots, etc…

  34. Since Petrie is just sitting on my bench not getting a game in my rucks (well he isnt when Sandi is playing).
    Next week should i downgrade Petrie to A 90k random rookie and take the 360k?
    I would have smith as my R3.
    This would allow me to do 2 upgrades!
    Good plan- Thumbs up

  42. Considering my last 3 trades are injured (Sandi, Chappy, and Sylvia) do I a) believe that the curse has now been lifted or
    B) believe that the curse will run beyond 3 and turn a negative into a positive by listing my next trade on e-bay and for the highest bidder i will trade a player of their choice into my team that will destroy their opposition.

    Love Supercoach…learning to hate injuries 🙂

  45. Am I the only one considering trading swanny out?? Will miss the next 2 at least, maybe 3….. Could come back jetlagged and underdone…… Hasn’t set the world on fire for me this year. Yes he could score some good scores later in the year, but I’m going for overall (only 731, but still….). if he’s missing the next 3’weeks, I’ve gotta slot mzungu or Duncan in. With my 60k spare,’I could afford anyone 510k and under.

    Current mids are SWAN, pendles, bartel, joelwood, Scotty T, cotchin.
    Could easily slot in a Judd/swallow/Mitchell/Goddard/hodge/pavlich etc in there.

    You know the drill, thumbs up or down please, and any suggestions if you can be bothered!

  51. so im playing a complete spud in my league and thought it would be a great week to save my trades.

    but then i realised that stevie J is on his way up and that i might miss the boat on him. i also feel at this stage of the season i need another premium in my forward line

    right now i only have 4 premium keepers plus, krak, tom lynch(GC), matera, richardson, markovic and didak.

    i have enough cash to do a straight swap with any of those guys so my question is.

    do i save my trades because im guaranteed a league win? (thumbs up)

    or do i upgrade someone like matera or krak to stevie J before his next price rise??? (thumbs down)

    Z Smith, Cox (Sandi & Macauley)

    Fyfe, Sylvia, Goodes, Rioli, Petrie, Yarran, Darling (Lynch (Suns), Richardson & Mzungu)

    I was hoping to upgrade Darling to Franklin but am about $2k short and i think Franklin will not play this week

    Also looking long term and want to have Duigan & Yarran, and to a lesser extent Gibbs out by Finals time. Really want to have a strong bench finals time so will be looking to hold onto Kraks, Lower & Mzungu

    Any suggestions would be appreciated.

  57. When upgrading your backs, it is worth throwing Heppell into the mix? If you trade say Heppell out for Fisher you save any possability of burning a trade come finals time.

    Or should Heppell be considered a keeper?

    My backs at the minute are:
    Dids, Goddard, Gibbs, Broughton, Heppell, Lower, Puopolo
    (Duigan, Thompson, Jacobs).

    Thumbs up for keeper
    Thumbs down for trade bait

  61. Thinking I may go:

    Josh Toy (If not named, AGAIN) —> Lids.

    Darling (just too inconsistent. Can’t play away from Subi) —-> Fyfe.

    OR, if Isaac Smith is named:

    Toy —> Lids
    Harris —> Smith.

    Yeah?

  63. Lads, thought I’d seek a bit of advice on your website as I find myself at rank no.31 overall. Seem to have gotten right or fluked every decision I’ve made so far and have the following team:

    11 trades left, $27,400 in the bank

    B: Deledio Goddard Gibbs Adcock Rawlings Heppell Lower
    (Hibberd Toy Otten)
    C: Pendlebury Murphy DalSanto Bartel Ablett Hodge
    (Gysberts Jacobs Mzungu)
    R: Cox Smith (Sandilands Bailey)
    F: Pavlich Franklin Johnson Goodes Sylvia Chapman Petrie
    (Darling Lynch Richardson)

    – Should I have a crack at winning the competition and burn more trades this week and next, or play it safer and keep some powder dry for finals?
    – Was thinking to get Fisher and Shaw into my backline and take the risk of trading Smith to Tippett to get it done. Got Petrie for the DPP with Tippett and Bailey also there as backup. What do you think, should I be ballsy and go for it? Or maybe a safer downgrade/upgrade like Toy – Howard and then Heppel to Shaw and do it more carefully that way?

    Any thoughts appreciated!

  64. Anyone who is ranked in the Top 100 at this point has a chance of winning the whole thing – personally I would forget about a League win at this stage and go for it – forget about “Finals” coz they don’t matter in overall win. DON’T be safe – even if you end up 2nd that’s still a feather in the cap and a talking point for next season !

  65. Is it worth trading in pendles for sidebottom or should I keep sidey as a premium and trade in pendles for say d Harris? Thumbs up pendles – sidey thumbs down pendles for d Harris?

  66. Lids, Shaw, Adcock, Goddard, Broughton, Grundy, Duigan.
    Pine… Stanley, L Thompson, Toy.

    Priddis, ROK, Selwood, Gibbs, Heppell, D Swallow.
    Pine… Smith, Mzungu, Swan.

    Z Smith, Tippett.
    Pine…Sandilands, A Spud.

    Pavlich, Fyfe, Goodes, N Riewoldt, Franklin, Chapman, Darling.
    Pine… Matera, T Lynch, Petrie.

    This is what my team will look like without trades/DPP help…..
    need help…
    possible Chappy? Buddy? Sandi!! and Swan!! as outs..
    Is this the only circumstance when trading Sandi becomes an option??
    ie: Sandi —–> Cox
    Petrie —–>Ruck (have Tippett) and something like
    Matera —-> Howe as bench cover (and $$$) for Chappy/Buddy

    Pavlich, Fyfe, Goodes and Chappy can Swap with ROK, I Smith and Mzunga as For/Mid and
    Lids and God can switch with Gibbs and Heppell as Def/Mid but DPP can’t get me out of being short up forward unless I smith and/or Chappy plays
    🙁
    I pulled a similar move already sending Jamar(LTI) —> a spud + $$$ and used Petrie/Tippett.

  68. Dont know how relevant or even reliable this is. But according to Fremantle’s website Sandilands is listed as 3 weeks (updated 7/6/11) was 3-4 weeks last week. Considering he’s already missed 2 weeks with the possibility of 3 more games (or even longer, would they really risk him 1 week before the bye or give him the extra week off) some may look at offloading him to upgrade to premiums in others areas in 1 trade, rather than having to double trade to get the coin to be able to afford the premiums. Thoughts?

  69. Ross Lyons just announced that Leigh Montagna won’t be considered for selection this week against the Gogs, as a result of his knee knock against the Pies last Saturday night. At this stage their hopeful its only a 1 week injury.

  76. Ok. Ive got 25,400 in the bank.

    I want to trade Knights (BE 79) out for J.Tippet, to swap with Petrie. That will complete my forward line with Pavlich, Fyfe, Franklin, Yarran, Didak, Rioili and PETRIE, with Darling, Richardson and T.Lynch on the bench.

    Then I will have 216,800 and I can trade out Batchelor (BE 42) for anyone out of Broughton/Adcock/Newman/Duffield/Gilbert/Enright/Hurn. Then the next week I can get in Brett Deledio (BE 115) who hopefully goes down in price. I am thinking out of Newman, Adcock or Broughton.

    Comment which backman I should get out of anyone less than 460,000.

  86. How about this for a trade plan that will hopefully ride me up into real contention for the $50K (sitting pretty at 77th right now)

    For Rd12:
    Sandilands > Vardy
    Tapscott > Pavlich

    Rd13: Sit tight, No trades

    Rd14:
    Iles > Pendlebury

    Will leave 9 trades left, with this team:
    BAC: Fisher, Deledio, Gibbs, Goddard, Shaw, Duffield, Enright
    EMG: Lower, Hibberd, Toy

    MID: Pendlebury, Swan, Priddis, Judd, Selwood, Hodge
    EMG: Heppell, Harris, Jacobs

    RUC: Cox, Smith
    EMG: Vardy, J.Tippett

    FWD: Franklin, Pavlich, Goodes, O’Keefe, S.Johnson, N.Riewoldt, Petrie
    EMG: Darling, Mzungu, Richardson

    ~$32,000 in the bank, but have the option open of doing Heppell > Pendlebury to raise the bank balance to ~$150,000 to afford a Smith > Sandilands straight swap before finals. As you can see, I would still have adequate bench cover in all positions even if I lose Heppell.

    If all goes to plan, I can sense some exciting times ahead 🙂
    How does it rate?

  89. i wanna strengthen up the tail end of my backline. out of these two who do people think are the better option?

    Hurn been smashing it of late but i cant tell if he just had poor form early or he is just having good form now.
    Murphy has played pretty well all year, mainly 90+ with no massive games and only a few poor ones, but is prone to injury and i think has a bye the first week of finals.

    Thumbs up – Hurn
    Thumbs down – Murphy (WB)
