The beginning of upgrade season and there’s plenty of trade talkin’ to get through. Your INS & OUTS this week please…….
Collins and Jack Higgins for Answerth (if picked) and T Kelly? Gives me some juicy $$ to upgrade to a premo mid or def while taking advantage of Collins and Kelly BE
Which mid should I get? Can’t split them.
TU Fyfe
TD Kelly
What should be the priority this week?
TU – grab TKelly by trading out Drew and Scrimshaw (keeping Burgess)
TD – get rid of Burgess (miss TKelly)
Anyone thinking of trading in a cartlon half back flanker as simpsons and newman are out?
Lachie O’Brien?
Go Plowman
As far as downgrades go, Hayes is a lock. What about Shai Bolton? 60avg, Riewoldt gone for weeks.
TU: Yes
TD: No
Cotchin?
Cotchin out for another three at least I read on Twitter
There’s an interview on their club website with their head of fitness, they go through all the tiger’s injuries.
https://www.richmondfc.com.au/video/2019-04-29/injury-update-riewoldt-astbury-cotchin-graham
He is 3-4 weeks away.
Hayes does look obvious, but FULB worries me. Most of my cows can fatten another week, and there looks to be other downgrades coming the following week.
Tough one.
Who to bring in this week?
TU: James Sicily
TD: Tim Kelly
J. Clark – Answerth
S. Collins – T. Kelly
T/U: Yes
T/D: No
Scott > Hayes
Cousins > Fyfe
TU: Yes
TD: No
Butters OUT for Hayes
Simpson OUT for ???
Can afford any defender
Backline Is: Whitfield, Simpson, Smith, Williams, Scrimshaw, Hoar (Clark/ Duursma)
Cheers
Bunga or Alloyd
To trade or hold… Im down to 25 trades already, have an easy projected win this week in the comp with mates with what I have (have cover for Whitfield on bench)
TU have a week with no trades
TD Dont miss out on Fyfe value this week; Sheed->Fyfe and use up bank
Thanks
If Redden is back. Do the trade. Hold off if not
OUT CRISP AND GIBBONS
IN Lloyd and Hayes
Priority this week?
TU: Fyfe (5k left)
TD: Kelly (70k left)
Tim Kelly that is
I’m keen to get fyfe in this week but a little short of cash to upgrade from a rookie, so looking at dumping sheed or b crouch:
Butters -> Hayes
Sheed -> Fyfe
thoughts?
Atkins – Hayes
Butters – Bolton
TU – yes
TD-no
T/U Lloyd – $38k in the bank
T/D Sicily – $75k in the bank, better bye
Thumbs up: Libba -> Treloar, Scrimshaw -> Lloyd
Thumbs down: Burgess -> Lloyd
clark out, burgess moved back, bolton in?
gives me bench cover down fwd (at the moment have bines and burgess), bolton should make some coin and should allow for an upgrade next week.
is it worth trading out B Crouch or A Brayshaw for Fyfe?
Only need one trade
TU: Yes
TD: No
Crouch yes, Brayshaw I wouldn’t
Collins > Answerth
Brayshaw > Fyfe
YAY – TU
NOPE – TD
looks like i’ll be bringing in rotham for newman this week
rotham represents good value in 4 key areas
if he plays – he gets rookie price rises
if he doesn’t – late round backline loophole
+ the option of a capt loophole
cash generation through the downgrade
Collins & Atkins > Lloyd and Hayes (TU) with no bank left
OR
Collins & Atkins > Answerth/Rotham (if he plays) and Hayes with 400K bank (TD)
Worth trading Moore to Boak
Pretty torn this week community, with some swinging looking at:
Option 1
Atkins > Hayes
Clarke> TKelly
Rem $92k bank
Option 2
Go a week early on Answerth
Clarke > Answerth
Atkins to Fyfe
Rem $4300 bank
Thinking option 1 is the better of the two, but now I’m over thinking it!
Thumbs up option 1
Thumbs down option 2
Atkins to Hayes
Scrimshaw to Sicily
Net cost of -130k; worth it?
Thoughts on possible trades this week
OUT Clark/Constable + Libba
IN Rotham/Hayes + Fyfe
Just short of Bailey Scott -> Hayes, unfortunately.
TU: Moore to T Kelly
TD: Parker to Greene
Kelly obviously the better scorer compared to Greene, however want to get Parker off the field ASAP
Just go Parker to T Kelly.
Don’t have the cash
Thinking of bringing in Fyfe
Who to trade out ?
TU Gibbons
TD. Petrucelle
Comment Setterfield
Thanks for your help
Ideally would wait until next week to trade out Gibbons and Pet when there 100 rolls out of here 3 week average. Both still got 1 big price rise coming this week
As the name suggests, I’ve got 24 trades left (damage control).
T/U: Trade Atkins for Hayes & M. Parker for T. Kelly
T/D: Just upgrade T. Kelly and save second trade?
Comment: No trade?
Thanks.
TU option 1:
Scott – TKelly
Clarke -> Sicily/boak
Only 120k bank
TD option 2:
Scott -> Tkelly
Clarke -> rotham/Hayes
Bank 570k
Did you rob a bank Maverick?!?!
Haha I am running Gawn R1 O’Brien R2 .
Offloaded Goldy last week so got a nice warchest there to use. But will need to get grundy around the byes. But I’m happy with the move gotta take risks makes the journey more exciting
Why not?!? Good luck mate
Also can I ask which way you voted AS. You all in on option 1?
Tu, Scott-Hayes
Butters- Fyfe
Td, don’t trade
T/U: T. Atkins -> W. Hayes & M. Parker -> T. Kelly = $388K left in the bank
– Could save $$$ for premos in the coming weeks
OR
T/D: J. Scrimshaw -> J. Sicily & M. Parker -> T. Kelly = $23.5K left in the bank
– go the double upgrade and rebuild the kitty
Definitely going Scott to Hayes. Undecided on which upgrade to go with.
T/U Goldy to Grundy, $157k left
T/U Scrimshaw to T.Kelly via Rozee DPP, $147k left
Also sort of toying with the idea of Scrimshaw to Billings.
Scrim -> Kelly every day of the week.
Scrimshaw close to topping out. Kelly with a low BE has probably bottomed out. Rozee on-field in the backline is fine.
Billings is, for me, a late target. Grab the more proven options, when you’re down to that last upgrade then you can see if Billings form is looking like continuing, or if it’s a flash in the pan.
Goldy-Grundy can wait. Goldy has an attainable BE of 115, and is up against Carlton minus Kreuzer. That means Phillips, Lobbe , Casboult or the young fella, De Koning. He’ll go big. Grundy has a BE of 165, very likely he drops significantly.
Didn’t even think to check Grundys BE, that’s a good point. Yeah wasn’t fully considering Billings too, just thought I’d throw it at the end of the comment to see if anyone thought it may be worth it.
Spot on BB.
Atkins > Hayes
Scrimshaw > T.Kelly
Would you prioritise fyfe or tkelly this week? Moving on libba and downgrading a rookie to hayes (permitting he is named) to facilitate the trade.
I also already have heeney and danger as my only premo fwds, which only adds to the pickle as they share a bye with kelly, but i need to start adding to fwd stocks
TU: Fyfe
TD:Tkelly
Atkins/Collins for Rotham(if named)/Sicily?
IF named, maybe.
Hi allsaints,
I think we all appreciate your tireless feedback. Do you think Hayes is a better option then a named Rotham?
t/u hurn
t/d sicily
What’s an acceptable amount of trades to have left?
24
Bloke at work is down to twenty, I think he’s in trouble, I myself down to 26 after this week.
Atkins and Collins out
Hayes and either T/U Laird or T/D Sicily
Tu: Atkins/ Hayes… Dunkley/ TKelly
Td: Save trade
Who is a better trade in?
TU: Rotham(if named)
TD: Hayes
Should I…
Trade out – Libba and Burgess
Trade in – Fyfe and Westoff
Westoff I believe has bottomed out at $385k, with Marshall up forward seems to be getting his hands on the ball playing a little higher up the ground.
Will leave me with 24 trades and $5k in the bank.
TU, go for it!
TD, hold your trades.
Just with Gray out, I’d like to see how Port set up this week before getting on the Hoff. But I like the idea.
Yeh I understand AS, I love his DPP and can see in time swinging Hines in the ruck after RO’B becomes the fat cow hopefully around bye rounds. Even if he becomes a very handy F6/7 R/Fwd later in the season.
Cheers for your reply, time to think again….
Westhoff can still drop another 80k if he continues to put up similar numbers each week that he has so far…
Agree with allsaints – think we need to wait a week to see what Port’s setup is before moving on any of their players
agree with mrgh33, westhoff’s current form might want to turn around a little first before jumping on board
TU : Collins/ Kelly and Witts/Sweet ( ROB become R2, upgrade to Grundy down the track.
TD: save trades
What should I do with Brad Crouch?
If Answerth is named, should I move Collins to Answerth and Brad Crouch to Fyfe.
I’m unsure about whether to trade Zak Butters due to his breakeven, and Stocker might be a downgrade target if he can play the Kade Simpson/Nic Newman role successfully.
Guess I’ll have to wait for team lineups.
If Answerth is named AND both Andrews and Bailey are back, it’s likely safe. Otherwise, I think I’d wait.
Tu: Petrucelle/ DMoore ; Answerth/ TKelly
Via Burgess… pass on Hayes & keep Dunkley
Td: Atkins/ Hayes > Dunkley/ TKelly
Contingent on teamsheets of course, which of these options would you lean towards?
T.U: Butters to Hayes and Scrimshaw (via Moore DPP) to Boak.
T.D: Scrimshaw to Bolton (via Moore DPP) and Butters to Fyfe.
Comments n’ criticism welcome.
TD. Just cos I’d rather pay unders for Fyfe, than overs for Boak!
Cheers, allsaints. Noted.
I’ve got 312k in the bank but only 23 trades left, I am trying to trade hard early to try get to all keepers ASAP.
I’ll definitely be upgrading Collins to Tim Kelly (via Darcy Moore) leaving me with 22 trades.
147k leftover.. could trade Goldstein to Gawn and have 30k left in the bank or i could save the trade. Gawn is scoring 20 points more every week and has a lower breakeven. Need some advice on what to do.
T/U Pull the trigger and trade Goldstein to Gawn
T/D Save the trade
If you do both, how many rookies will you have left on the field?! If more than 5, I’d just do Collins>Kelly for now. Goldy has a pretty easy run to the byes.
T/U: Laird
T/D: Hurn
Daniel Rich (shudders at the thought) was a burnman but after taking a large proportion of kick ins and playing behind the football is killing it this year. Should I trust him and bring him into my team?
T/U
BALTA -> T.KELLY
T/D
M.PARKER -> BOAK
WILL BE LEFT WITH NO $ AFTER THE BOAK TRADE, HOWEVER WILL BE LEFT WITH SOME $ AFTER THE T.KELLY TRADE. THOUGHTS?
CAN GET IN ANOTHER PREMO NEXT WEEK IF I GO WITH THE T.KELLY TRADE.
No need to shout, we’re not deaf Grandma!! 😉
She is , dont you get it ? lol
GRANDMA JUST MAKING SURE EVERYONE CAN HEAR ME MY LOVE
I have both Whitfield and Coniglio and considering their injuries, I’m looking to ship one of them off.
T/U –
Butters -> Hayes
Whitfield -> Lloyd
T/U –
Make no trades and cover round with bench if injured
The second option was meant to be T/D…
Current team:
Def: L Whitfield, R Laird, B Smith, Z Williams, J Scrimshaw, M Hore, (J Clark, C Burgess)
Mid: L Neale, Z Merrett, N Fyfe, C Oliver, R Sloane, S Walsh, C Constable, X Duursma, (M Gibbons, T Atkins, W Setterfield)
Ruck: B Grundy, T Goldstein, (R O’Brien)
Fwd: P Dangerfield, I Heeney, J Darling, D Moore, W Drew, L Baker, (M Parker, P Bines)
Remaining salary: 231,000
Trades left: 25 (due to Out: T Greene, M Hore, B Scott, Z Butters, S Collins, In: B Smith, J Scrimshaw, M Hore, R O’Brien, L Baker)
Rank: 25987
Greatly appreciate advice (hopefully from Allsaints) on the better course of action for this round.
TU: Out: J Darling, J Scrimshaw/J Clark/T Atkins, In: T Kelly, W Hayes/J Hately
TD: Out: M Parker, J Scrimshaw/T Atkins, In: T Kelly, W Hayes/J Hately
Hi Adam,
You’ve actually got quite a good structure now.
Clark should be able to cover Whitfield in the Defence this week (we’re in a similar situ there). And, Darling is probably your biggest headache (I know because I had him, too – Greene as well).
In my opinion, and I’m allowed to be wrong at least twice per day, I’d cut Darling and bring in Tim Kelly. That’s it for now.
Good luck whatever you decide to do buddy 🙂
Thanks, I greatly appreciate it. Very annoyed with Darling as I could have had Boak which would have meant I’d be ranked in the top 2000 due to a 400 point differential between Boak and Darling. Keen to offload him this week as the intention and expectation with the starting selection was between the 90-100 range and to be utilised as a F6/F7 loop in the latter half. Will likely utilise 1 or 2 of R Gray/J Westhoff/D Smith in that role this year.
Yet to make an upgrade after this week and 6 trades down but happy to have rectified most of the poor starting selections whether premium or rookie and will be targeting J Lloyd, J Macrae and J Kelly pre bye.
No worries. I’m pretty PO’d about it as well. I was tossing up Darling and Boak as well, but made a similar decision. Same with Greene… took him instead of Worpel. Sounds like it could’ve been a different season for us both.
Important note, all the corrections are made for you and you’re about to make some real strides from the sounds of it mate. Good targets ahead.
FYI – I’ve had Westhoff from the start… hoping he’s coming good now, but he’s been very up-and-down so far. May want to wait until after the byes to figure out who those F6/7 slash M8/9 slash R3 players are to see how things shake out.
Thanks. Will likely be a bit aggressive in the mids and hopefully select J Macrae and J Kelly when they are both below 600,000 in the coming 2-4 weeks which will likely mean S Walsh and C Constable will leave early. Also had the intention of turning B Smith into J Lloyd when he replaced Greene but if he continues this form I might need to find another avenue.
Also with the poor cash gen this season there should only be a 100,000 or less difference between the Hoff/Gray and Drew/Baker later on which is the main allure behind that potential move.
All valid points…. good luck to you matey 🙂
Def : hurn williams Smith Collins scrim duursma ( Burgess Clarke)
Considering going Collins too rich his JR looks SuperCoach friendly and should maintain that for the year very comfortable draw also. I know Lloyd sic & laird all make sense to finish top 6 but his price, BE & season avg make it enticing
Need to get rid of R.Gray this week.
Who do I bring in?
TU – Boak (get him in quick, your missing out on valuable points)
TD – T.Kelly (get him while his cheap, bank some cash & target Boak later)
T Kelly:
28 games into career and averages 23.18 disposals and 10.71 contested possessions.
Disposals: 23.18
SC Avg when disposals equal/exceed 24: 115.92 from 13 (low of 95 and a high of 155, 1/13 below 100, 3/13 120+)
SC Avg when disposals below 24: 74.73 from 15 (low of 39 and a high of 106, 14/15 below 100)
Contested Possessions: 10.71
SC avg when contested possessions equal/exceed 11: 111.19 from 16 (low of 75 and a high of 155, 3/16 below 100, 3/16 120+)

Trade cousins for fyfe and newman for t kelly leaves me $88 in the bank and 23 trades, want to get macre in a couple of weeks and still have some cash cows , puts walsh m7 Ross m8 and drew/ baker/pet f5 and f6 brings scrimshaw on to cover for whitfield

Hi Community
I am not sure of the trades for this week. Which of the following 3 possible trades should be a priority, in order of 1 to 3
1 Moore to Daniel,
2 goldy to grundy,
3 Whitfield to Lloyd
Thoughts welcome
Keep whitfield
Want to upgrade Collins but don’t have enough cash to upgrade to a Hurn or a Sicily
Already have whitfield and Lloyd along with Williams and Smith
T/U: Houli (think I’m going insane)
T/D: Rich
Hi Tarik,
Zak Jones is an interesting POD that not many are discussing… good luck 🙂
Collins-> Rotham/Answerth
Butters-> Fyfe
T/U – Yes
T/D – No
TU Libba>Fyfe
TD Hold>Libba
Here is my team, anything i should do?
Lloyd, Hurn, B.Smith, Scrimshaw, Duursma, Hore, (Whitfield (injured), Wilkie)
Cripps (c), Macrae, Liberatore, Rockliff, B. Crouch, Walsh, Constable, Butters (Gibbons, Scott, Riach)
Grundy, Gawn (Fort)
Boak, Dangerfield, Kelly, Worpel, Rozee, Drew (Parker, Burgess)
Do you have any cash? Trades left?
Lots of people are trading Butters to Hayes, Hayes looks solid and Butters is about as fat as he’ll get. I’d look at moving Scrimshaw on too for the same reason. if you have enough money I’d upgrade to Laird or Heeny via Rozee DPP. If not an upgrade, Answorth looks a solid downgrade from Scrimshaw.

Currently have 27 trades in the bank.
Thoughts on the following trades?
B Scott –> W Hayes
Liberatore –> Fyfe
Don’t have the money this week to upgrade anyone to a premium. So,
OUT C. Wagner, Collins
IN Hayes, Young
Trade up to Fyfe next week via Gibbons
How does it sound?
The other thing – should I go Rotham over Young?
TU: Rotham
TD: Young
Scott to Fyfe or scott to Kelly?
TU=Fyfe
TD=Kelly
awfully tempted by rocky and riches price and think they can finish top 6-8 of there positions.. get on the value now
TU: yeeehhharrrr get on
TD: nope get locks in the positions
Collins –> Answerth
Drew –> Daniel
28.9k in the bank
thoughts??
TU: Kelly
TD: Walters
Collins > Answerth
B Crouch > Fyfe
leaves $180k in bank
thoughts?
TU 1 trade Burgess to T Kelly this week and Fyfe next week or TD 2 trades and get Fyfe this week
IN Lloyd and Answerth
Out Crisp and Collins
80k bank left
Caleb Daniel
TU. Yes.
TD. No.
Hey everyone, I have a dilemma…
Basically, I am looking to trade in N.Fyfe (-55K of starting price & should ave. ~ 120) this week, but am also looking to target J. Macrae (should be around 580K & should ave. ~ 120) in 2 weeks time once his 85 rolls out of his system (barring more sub-100 scores).
As my team stand right now, I have 4 midfield premiums, 2 midfield mid-pricers (T.Liberatore & B.Crouch), and 2 on-field midfield rookies (S.Walsh & C.Constable). This means if i want to bring BOTH N.Fyfe and J.Macrae pre-byes, I will be left with one of T.Liberatore/B.Crouch/S.Walsh on the bench unless one gets traded, which seems a waste of on-field points due to their increased scoring power over rookies in other lines. However, I definitely feel keeping all these 3 players to at least their bye, and re-assessing then is the right call as they all can make a little more money, have increased scoring power over other rookies and may come keepers or bench cover post-byes (especially if B.Crouch finally begins to convert his raw numbers into SuperCoach scores).
So, do I be trading in N.Fyfe only this week / J.Macrae only in 2 weeks (and field S.Walsh), both (bench / trade S.Walsh/B.Crouch/T.Liberatore), or trade in N.Fyfe now, and wait to trade Macrae in after his bye in Rd.12 hoping he hovers around 580-600K with a couple more 100-110 odd scores as he seems to be playing slightly more HF?
Btw, my midfield is: P.Cripps, C.Oliver, M.Crouch, R.Sloane, T.Liberatore, B.Crouch, S.Walsh, C.Constable (Z.Butters, T.Atkins, B.Scott).
All feedback is much appreciated! 🙂
Hurn or Sicily? Cheers.
Newman upgrade to Riche
Butters for Hams
*Haynes
What are people thinking bout Rich? He’s scoring rather consistently off half back, question is weather he can keep it up. Top 10 defender this season?
Is 4 Geelong players in the forward line just too much? Their draw is by far the easiest in the league as well! Miers will most likely offloaded before the byes so will leave me with 3 + Heeney for the Rd 13 bye.
Thoughts?
depends if playing league or overall maybe. I’m playing league so happy to have all of those players (most others dont because of the bye) and cop the loss for that bye round.
Is it too early to trade out constable? I know he’s got more cash to make but he was omitted and it’s a tough midfield to break back into…was going to trade butters but once i saw constable was out I thought it might be better to leave Butters in to make a bit more cash
Is coniglio worth bringing in. Or are there better options 564k in the bank
Already have fyfe.
TU: Atkins and Libba to Fyfe and Hayes (with $193k for future upgrades)
TD: Atkins and Ridley to Sicily and Hayes ($5k ITB for future)
Wow. How about those team lists….
Which rookie would you consider is more crucial to hold
TU: Constable
TD: Butters
Wouldn’t have even considered trading constable before teams, but with him being an omission and not managed, and right at the time when i wanted to start going 1 down 1 up, who knows when he will be back to gain more value
Going Scrimshaw to Hayes
Do i go Collins to Crisp ??
Or hold?
T/U
scrimshaw and butters OUT
answerth and hayes IN
Leaves me with 460k in the bank for double upgrade next week
TU yes
TD no
thanks crew
I said it last week that I don’t like going early on a rookie….in this case though I am looking at the exact same trade because I have no DPP in the midfield and Scott and Gibbons aren’t worth trading. Unless you definitely need two upgrades next week doesn’t hurt to wait and see if Scrimshaw is back next week I reckon.
scrim to hurn
const to hayes
??? too early on const
hold on B.Scott & C.Wagner? Or bite the bullet
Who trade out for Will Hayes
T/up – Constable
T/down – Bailey Scott
Trading out Simpson & Constable.
TU Neale
TD Fyfe
I really need Neale his killing me everyweek!
Who to trade out:
T/U – Collins
T/D – Scrimshaw
I’m going both Collins this week lets me loop Duursma/Hore next week Scrim to Answerth
I’ve got 2 options this week, missed most of the carnage luckily!
TU – Scrimshaw>Laird and Sheed>Rocky
TD – Scrimshaw>Hayes via DPP and Sheed > Fyfe. This option will leave me with no E in the backline for this week. Whitfield and Burgess on the bench.
Is Hayes a must have in terms of rookies or should i go the double upgrade this week? (Scrim – Libba for Fyfe Daniel)
T/U – Double upgrade
T/D – bring in hayes free up some cash
Who to trade out for Hayes? Constable. scott, butters, gibbons? or just hold the others
Constable. Good profit made & been dropped not sure when he will return so it’s time
I will hold constable for a week at least. If he plays will be good for points and more cash- this week he is a very handy loop option as cats play on sunday
Currently have 25 trades remaining.
Looking at making 2 trades this week…
Getting players in to help with bye rounds…
How many trades ideally would younaant to have left post bye rounds?
Thanks !
is it really time to trade constable?
TU – Hold him for one week and trade next week if not named
TD – trade now, no point waiting
Better job security?
TU: Answerth
TD: Lockhart
I wouldn’t normally do a trade like this, however it seems to be a good way to get in llyod.
Whitfield out, llyod in
Atkins out Hayes in
Will have 120k in the bank.
Whitfield has a BE over 200. Will trade him back in, he will lose at least 50k.
Might be considered by some as a waste of trade. The more I have thought about it it makes sense, and it’s to bring in a player who should be #1 defender and possibly top 10 overall. Wouldn’t do a trade like this for an underpriced punt.
And I’ve used only 4 trades so I feel fairly comfortable with it. Otherwise llyod is a pain to get in and this is a good opportunity with Whitfield at his current price, BE, and missing a game
Constable to Hayes
Scrimshaw to Lloyd
Yes or no please
Sicily T/U
Fyfe T/D
Similar prices, Sicily the better option structurely but this will be my last upgrade for 4 weeks, ideas?
Thanks
Scrimshaw –> Hayes is locked in need the cash to start updgrading
Considering Whitfield out for Sicily
Would help my bye structure a bit. I’ve been told/read that trades are worth about 120k-150k. I held off trading out Fyfe after the concussion. I’ve only used two trades so far so sitting at 28. Down to 27 after the Scrimshaw –> Hayes trade.
Dropping Whitfield to Sicily nets me 15k then Whitfield over the next two weeks drops 100k which by all accounts even 100’s will mean for him to be as cheap as 475k. Which equates to about a 115k difference while banking Sicily’s score. Backline this week with just the one trade is B.Smith, Z.Williams, Moore, Duursma, Hore, Clark (Whitfield, Burgess). I’m not too fussed about leagues I just want the highest rank I can get. Someone please sell me on not selling Whitfield I really don’t want to. Sitting at 5k in rankings. 58k ITB (Before trades) 266k after trades.
Thanks for the help
Thoughts on
Sidebottom out (only 2 scores over 100) in > Fyfe (top 6 mid)
Collins out in > Brodie smith (3 100s may end up top 6-10 ave mids)
Mids will then me: Cripps/Fyfe/Neale/ M crouch/ Cogs / Libba / Walsh / Stack em: constable / Atkins / Watson
Backs: Whitfield* / Hurn / Williams / smith / Duursma / Hore em: Lockhart / Clark
Rucks: Gawn / Grundy em: obrian
Forwards: danger / Heeney / Kelly / drew / baker / Parker em: Balta / Bines
Forwards are a worry. Looking at getting Boak after his bye if he drops down to 550k and baker rises mid $350k
Happy with some cash generation with rookies.
Currently sitting top 2,000 overall and only playing for overall
23 trades left after completing the above this week.
Tappy if you are going for overall then you need the top 6 in each position and full premos as soon as possible and pray there aren’t too many injuries. Failing that, top 10 per position.
Treloar, Pendles , Adams and Philips seem to atttend most centre bounces so it is having an effect on Sidebottom output as he is not kicking that many goals either, but I still believe he can make top 10 as he didnt make 100+ average only once in the last 7 years. You shouldn’t carry premium passengers but at the same time remember what matters is the total points from now to seasons end, his bad scores may have come and gone.
Looking for a good player to replace Burgess and Clark help me out
Need more to work with .. got any DPP? Hayes if possible.. wanting to double down or paint the fence? What’s ya bank…
Bank: 82,700 right now most
Most likely need a good defense cause whitfield injured , scrimshaw being manage which leads me trading out Burgess and Clark need a good replace for those two.
Current team:
Laird, Collins,hore and answerth
If you have Moore forward I’d hold Burgess his DPP his more handy than his measly 50k he’d make by downgrading.. move on scrimshaw up too a premium if possible u have answerth already no other defenders are worth jumping on. Clarke will play according to Chris Scott yesty and trading Scrim will give you 6 playing defenders
Two trade options this week. I do understand it is early on Moore/Constable but getting Laird in will give me more chance in some crucial leagues this week with Whitfield out and when Whitfield returns my team will be in great shape
TU: Butters or Atkins to Hayes ($150k or $130k remaining to use next week) – Pred Score 2154
TD: Moore + Constable to Laird + Hayes – ($20k left) – Pred score 2178
Essentially the only on-field differece is Laird vs Moore this week
What is the chance of Answerth being drop next round? Is it worth a trade
Anyone know what L Young JS is like?
Can’t decide on who comes in:
TU: Young & Fyfe
TD: Hayes & Sicily
Would prefer Hayes & Fyfe but can’t swing it.
T/U Bachar Houli
T/D Daniel Rich
I am looking for POD in this trade
Houli missed 10 games last year and 5 the year before (I think there was a suspension in there somewhere), already missed 3 this year. I don’t think his body will hold up.
Thanks David, that is a good point
McGrath > Lloyd
Butters > Hayes
Only will have 3k in the bank…
T/U – do it
T/D – hold for now
While the rookie outs haven’t devastated me this week, I’m thinking it’s probably a good opportunity to turf Scrimshaw, who looks to have limited money still to make. Beats trading out Libba or Moore who are capable scorers this week.
OUT: Scrimshaw and Atkins
IN: Fyfe and Hayes
Leaves the team as:
DEF: Lloyd, Laird, Williams, Smith, Moore, Hore (Duursma, Clark)
MID: Cripps, Neale, Fyfe, Crouch, Oliver, Libba, Walsh, Butters (Constable, Scott, Hayes)
RUC: Grundy, Gawn (O’Brien)
FWD: Danger, Heeney, Kelly, Drew, Baker, Pettruccelle (Setters, Bines)
Will look to bring Moore back into the forward line next week, trading out Butters or Pettruccelle for Answerth. Probably pair that with another downgrade so I can sit on a little Macrae/Whitfield Warchest going into the following week.
I’m thinking of trading Newman. I can get Houli or is it too late to bring in B.Smith in? Can Smith still make money? I’ve got 28 trades left.
T/U – Houli
T/D – B. Smith
Don’t bring Smith in for money, he won’t be making a heap more.
Do consider that he’s tonned up in his last three games, and could well be a solid D6 come the end of the year.
Williams another popular player on the off chance you don’t already have him. Crisp a good chance to put in some strong performances through the year, and Howe isn’t a terrible pick (rarely goes real big, but can give you consistent solid scores).
You’ve got some options around that mark, but whoever you bring in should be someone you’re happy to have at the end of the year. Alternatively, hold Newman one more week – you could downgrade to Answerth to bank a heap of cash and bring in a cash cow, or you could see how Nyhuis goes in his second game for the year ($284k and scored 97 last week).
Thanks BlueBalls, I was checking my options if Clark didn’t play on Sunday as I don’t have anyone available on the bench.
I already have Williams & Crisp but forgot about Howe.
I’ll hold Newman for the week & see how Answerth & Nyhuis go this weekend.
Cheers
Whitfield and B Crouch to Ryan or Rich and Fyfe.
TU- Yes
TD- No
Get Fyfe while he’s cheap and get Whitfield in again in a couple of weeks when he’s cheaps.

Rob.
G’Day Rob – a couple of thoughts – are you chasing overall ranking, do you have 30 trades still or do you think LW will be out longer than a week? If you answered yes to any of these then this may validate the move.
Otherwise, assuming you started with LW he has gained 33k and is expected to lose approx 70k before evening out again….unless you need another premo to replace him (e.g. your bench is trash).
Not worth the 2 trades from a cash perspective unless you’re hammering for top positions.
Good luck.
Cheers Tommy,
I do not want to field Jay Lockhart, so I’m looking for another premo to bring in for Whitfield, I’ve used 3 trades so far not including these.
Do you think that I would be burning too many trades by doing this?
Regards, Rob.
Popped a real long comment in the Trade or Hold thread that may help lay it out.
Have gone Scrimshaw (via Moore DPP) to Bolton and Butters to Fyfe.
Sound good? And is it okay to have passed on Hayes?
Hayes looks like he might turn into an Atkins type slow burn. I’ve passed on him. Stocker to debut this week and probably play off halfback, might be one to watch.
Don’t think Hayes is a must-have. He’s just convenient in timing and apparent job security. Others will pop up along the way. Stocker to debut for Carlton and will hopefully get an extended run at it with Simmo and Newman out of action for three weeks – good user and been playing off half back in the VFL, even taking a lot of kick-ins. Don’t think he’ll get huge numbers, but 55-70 should be a realistic range.
Cheers, BlueBalls. You’ve pumping out wisdom all day, much appreciated. Ty David, as well.
Can do:
TU – Scott to Hayes (constable, butters, atkins, gibbons left)
TD – Butters to Hayes
Just means if i trade scott ill have less in the warchest?
Think you should keep Scott. Will eventually get some games and bring in some much needed mid-season cash.
1)
S. Collins > Answerth
Pertrucelle > Boak
2)
S.Collins > Answerth
Pertucelle > Daniels
If to Boak ($78,500 in the bank)
If to Daniels ($181,000 in the bank)
T/U – Option 1
T/D – Option 2
Wouldn’t trade Petruccelle. His B.E is still in the negatives, still has that 100 in his RA and should score well against the Suns this week.
Answerth is good in that he is cheap and dual position. If I buy him as a mid he will at least allow me to use Dursma in the midfield by swapping positions along with increasing the bank too. If he ends up getting games and increasing his value that’s a bonus.
Better than what I am getting from Scott.
As for Hayes I don’t like his JS that much to make him a must have.
Butters to
T/U hately
T/D hayes
Collins, Constable out
Fyfe, Bolton in via Moore DPP?
