Just realised I can go Zorko and Madden with those trades seems like a no brainer, but Cerra might still be a smokey, taking out the injury marred game and is ave a hundred at a little over 400k.
getting out Scott and probably Bergman this week, unless he is named then I might choose somebody else.
should I… double downgrade to Weightman and madden or do I get in madden and get in somebody below 450k. not many options, would probably have to be Henney
They are my 2 ins this week too. They both could average 95-105 for the rest of the season and takes 2 rookies off the field. Netting your team average up 80+ a week. Just Heeney’s injury history is a concern. But, at his price it’s worth the risk.
Tell you what, I panicked so bad when Guthrie got injured XD But I’m happy he got back on and played it out.
A bit confused on what I should do here to be honest.
I have a few people who’ve peaked and are starting to lose money, like Scott and McNeil.
Jordon is pretty much there, but he’s more than capable of reaching is BE of 75 and he’s proven to be handy, so I can probably hold onto him for a little while longer.
I also have Jiath who is struggling to break past $400k and not doing well recently.
So I’m not sure whether I should only make one trade or both, because they’re running out fast with all the side trades I had to make for injured players throughout the season.
If I can spare one trade at least, I was considering doing the one downgrade to someone like Madden or Weightman, just so I can make up some spare cash.
A little stuck with what to do this week! Would love some advice!
Def – mills, laird, Stewart, Daniel, Ridley, Jones, (Murphy, highmore)
Mids- bont, Oliver, macrae, Merrett, Cripps, Taranto, jordon, Powell (Scott, berry, brockman)
Rucks – gawndy (flynn)
Forwards – ziebell, zorko, dusty, rowe, poulter, waterman (bergman, mccreery)
$36k in bank
I’d look at the 2 downgrade options of Madden & Weightman to make some cash. Powell & Scott could make way for 1 or 2, depending on your trade situation.
Comment: Scott to Weightman & Fullarton to Madden + 152K ITB this gives me another active body through the bye rounds & Bergman more on the fringe to get game time than Fullarton
Pretty good bank but would like it to be larger for my shopping spree during the byes. Zorko, Stewart, Dale, Lyons, Bont, Steele, Heeney are all on my radar.
Scott is a definite out for me this week. Downgrade to Madden/Weightman gives me extra cash but going up to Heeney/Dale gives me one less rookie infield and less shopping dollars.
If I double downgrade or paint the fence who is the other out? Can’t be Treacy as I’m saving him for when I cash out Flynn in R14.
Atu and Highmore have low BEs and dollars to make, but will they play again soon?
Warner?…I like his consistency and the fact that he’s playing.
Jordon?…one down week, should bounce back.
What do you think coaches?
T/U: one trade only…keep your powder dry
T/D: two trades…have a go ya mug
Currently 246K in the bank and 6 on field rookies left and 13 trades left.
Downgrade Rowe and Prior to Weightman and Madden gives me 511K in the bank to double upgrade Jordon and Powell next week.
Or Rowe to Weightman and upgrade Powell to Oliver leaving 80K and having to 1 up 1 down next week to upgrade Jordon.
I’ve held Bolton who might be back this week so he’s effectively giving me an extra premo in this week only leaving 1 forward rookie on field. Because of this I’m leaning towards option 1 to turn Powell and Jordon into Oliver and Lyons or Bont. Leaving 3 on field rookies with Scott and Flynn both to downgrade at some point.
Just my early thoughts but is Madden worth a trade ? Brisbane playing 2 more rounds before their bye. Does he play after that? Answerth 1 week away and Jack Payne 2/3 weeks away. Thinking Weightman although more expensive is a better option. Thoughts?
I agree. Weightman exciting player and reckon he keeps his spot and with dogs scoring capacity he will get more of ball then madden. Worth the extra cash
Bont is just superman, steele has a pretty good run coming up and scored a solid 99 v bulldogs last week where points were heavily favoured towards dogs.
Hey guys,
Just going to put all of my thoughts on a few comments, please read through…
I have 3 options.
Option 1 is: CJ and Sholl/MID rookie -> Bontempelli and Madden
Option 2: CJ and Scott -> Daniel and Madden
Option 3: CJ and Scott -> Zorko and Madden
So
TU: Option 1
TD: Option 2
TU comment: Option 3
Hard to say for Madden given Lester is looking to be back after their bye. Gardner needs surgery for his shoulder so he won’t be pushing him out. I would say it’s either him or Coleman that makes way for Lester when that time comes.
Thoughts on Darcy Parish? I must admit that I didn’t think too much of him a month back but definitely starting to come into my calculations. Seems to be heading towards a price tag of 630K+ at this rate and you’d think any possible tags would go to Merrett. Bit of a POD too with 4% selection.
TU: Good POD selection
TD: Too expensive and not proven
TU: Scott and Robertson > Madden and Weightman
TD: Scott and Robertson > Madden and Zorko
Comment: Only Scott>Madden, upgrade Robertson next week or two since his BE is 30 odd
I like the DPP on Laird which is now handy for the Byes etc. I’m looking for some Def/Mid options: Having a playing rookie to replace sharp is handy.
This is what I was thinking, but I am open to options.
Thinking of trading Scott to Madden and Powell to Mitchell this week. I’m left with $564k when I get Madden in, and I really want Fyfe ($6k short) or Walsh ($9k short). I also don’t have any non-playing rookies which give me a VC loophole option. Do I:
T/up – get Mitchell in and get another playing rookie (Madden)
T/down – Bank more cash by getting in a non-playing rookie ($102k) so I can get in Fyfe or Walsh and also have a VC loophole option
Have you got any rookies worth more than Scott? You could trade out a Jordon or Warner instead if it gets you to the player you’d prefer. If you’re really close, Deven Robertson will get you an extra $8k. I definitely see the need to get rid of Scott but you want to be happy with your premos so it’s sometimes worth it if you can get someone you want by getting rid of a different rookie.
Cheers for the reply. I don’t have anyone else worth more than Scott besides Jordon and Powell of course. But I feel like I can still hold Jordon for a bit longer so I can eventually upgrade him.
I’m just a bit confused about the downgrade to Robertson you mentioned. By trading Jordon to Robertson, it only leaves me with $132k to upgrade Powell. Trading Scott to Madden gives me $213k to upgrade Powell. However, if I get a $102k non-playing rookie it gives me $235k to upgrade Powell and provides a Captaincy loophole option, which I currently don’t have.
Sorry, meant if you had Robertson you could downgrade him instead of Scott.
As for the Jordon one, definitely fair to hold onto him over Scott. I was more just saying that if you’ll upgrade him at some stage anyway, you could just pull the trigger now to get someone you like more than Mitchell. Your current plans are solid, I was just providing an alternative option.
Pretty happy with how I’m travelling at the moment. Just looking for some trade ideas this week. This is what I’ve come up with. If anyone can suggest any other trades please comment!
Was thinking Powell, Warner – Weightman, Madden (swap scott and poulter to mid and bring in steele for scott next week) – 408.5k
Looking ahead at Richmond’s draw, they only have 4 games against the current top 8.
Is it worth bringing Dusty in now, before the byes @ 433k?
TU: Get him in now. Cheap and a fwd-lock, rd12 is gunna beat you anyway
TD: Hold off. Look at Heeney or comparable and save some cash / get Dusty later
Just the one this week. Thanks for your service as C Ford, but you can make way for Madden which means 28 warm bodies, not including Highmore……now I HAVE put a curse on my team !! Treacy can hopefully take over as C for this week, then anyone for bye rounds. No room for Weightman…Madden is going up by $40k less than Weightman over three weeks, but is $50k cheaper. And Madden has dpp.
I agree despite all the thumbs down. Heeney is currently missing some training sessions every week due to soreness. Only a matter of time before he doesn’t get up for some games.
Fwd: Ziebell, Impey, Robertson, A. Scott*, Waterman, McCreery (Macrae, Fullarton)
So i have Bowes as an Extra in defence who im considering trading and scott in the forward who needs to go now..
TU: trade Bowes dpp sharp to def and bring in premo mid, can get any..
then trade scott to weightman for some cash – 100k ITB if i go Bont (Is weightman a must have rookie??)
TD: Trade Bowes to Ridley and move laird to mids and trade scott to Dusty – 13k ITB
Please give me any other suggestions, even if it means holding bowes (could just swap laird with sharp when bowes returns) if you think thats more worth and going 1 up 1 down with a Jordan to A MID maybe ..?
What do we think of Darcy Parish as a top premo since his move back to the mid?
Looking at downgrading Warner this week to Weightman or Madden
T/U Taking Madden enables me to exchange Heppell at M7 to a C.Oliver or Lyons
T/D Taking Weightman (who can probably score better) gets me a cheaper premo (like Parish)
Have Kosi on the pine and thinking of trading to Z.Williams as he is cheap, am I jumping the gun? Or should wait for another downgrade to get Mills/Rich etc for my last DEF spot.
I would say to have a long look at Whitfield, I’ll be bringing him in next week or maybe after his byes at a bit more expensive price. Now that hes got match fitness in him, I cant see him averaging less than 100
It’s doing my head finding a mid premo to get this week. Been tossing and turning between Steele, Mitchell and Kelly and then also the onfield rookie headache between Weightman and Madden.
With the way Kelly has been doing in the past 3-4 weeks, he looks real solid in the mids and with the team finally winning I cant see him going back into the forward line unless something drastic happens. Opposite for Steele though, rough 3-4 weeks with saints playing local level footy but Steele still pumping 90’s and 100’s, if they do end up turning it around cant see his price getting any lower.
Pls help me find where to go so I can sleep in peace.
Guessing Titch or J. Kelly at R12 would work best? Out of them I’d lean towards Titch just on continuity of role and as a shield against his higher ownership.
I’m also confounded on Weightman v Madden. I’ll drum up a poll for it.
Yeah. I really like Boak, Johnno. Considering him this week.
Port’s #1 CB attendee, nice ceiling and rotation cap has kept him above 80% TOG this year. His floor of 80 is a touch annoying, but can grab him at 536k and splurge elsewhere.
Aka had said he was tossing up between Steele, Titch and Kelly, which is why I didn’t mention him.
Potentially but with best 18, it’s not quite as urgent cause if he has a bad score it doesn’t impact things as much except for the press. Hawks and suns are all of a sudden better to have cause they’ll be playing through all bye rounds which could be a huge advantage. Just depends how much more he can drop or if he can bounce back and be a bit fresher after his bye
You select your team as normal *( 22 players and emergencies) and at the end of the round only your 18 highest scoring players count towards your final score for the round.
* That is if you can field a complete team with Hawthorn and Gold Coast players not playing.
Following early season injury carnage I have no option but to take risks and forecast premos/potential premos at the lower end fo their price cycle who I think can improve and finish the year strongly. Would love to pot out the cash for an Oliver or Macrae but just gonna have to work a bit harder given the situation I find myself in. I brought in Jelly at the bottom of his price cycle a few weeks ago and that’s working out ok – just need to repeat a few times
Any thoughts on these names.
Petracca – 525k – in brownlow /“best player in the game”discussions but not scoring as well as last year. Oliver outscoring him by 200+ [points over the last few weeks has to be an aberration or not?
L Hunter – 466k – seemed to be the dog squeezed out of the action when they had a full playing deck but now with Dunkley and Treloar down is this his time..?
Whitfield – gathering momentum in a similar way to last year after injury
Ridley – obvious one but slight concerns over the role of Redman impacting his scores. Seems to go better when the bombers get beaten – are they likely to fall away like other years..?
Any ideas of some forwards that may fit in the above category extremely welcome. I know about Heeney but I am staying away for the same reasons I stayed away from Marshall 2 weeks ago. Prefer to take risks on the form of genuine quality that on fitness concerns for now.
Do many people have plans to get Lachie Neale back into there team once he returns from injury? If he gets back to his best he could be an absolute steal at his current price. I know he’s still a couple weeks away but I’m surprised this isn’t a more spoken about topic.
TU: Lachie Neale is well and truely in my calculations
TD: I’ll be looking at other options to finish my midfield
As a luxury trade, I will be looking to change Taranto into a Neale later on (if i have trades left).
He does have a low breakeven but even if he comes back and scores a low ton and goes up in price a bit, i reckon it would still be worth it to see how he performs first.
I’ve held him since his injury due to only really playing for SC finals + dealing with other issues in my team. I’m very confident that he’ll come back and be itching for kicks!
Quietly hoping that other teams will keep paying more attention to Lyons/mcgluggage/zorko who have all been in good form and helped the lions to 8 wins in a row
With the return of Covid screwing everyone up to best 18 scorers. I was looking to double upgrade but now I’ll just go 1half up and 1 down. Heeney and Weightman in. Then probably get Touk Miller in round 12 since I already have Mitchell.
I actually meant GCS v hawks can you believe !!! But I’m totally confused now anyway. I’m still drunk on the magnificent form reversal of my team !! Looking forward to our R17 showdown !!!
I know steele probably a better selection, but saints are putrid and not scoring much, boak plays for a top 4 team and will be likely playing a lot of games out of vic and boak is much better for my bye plans.
Bit indecisive in what to do this week. Currently have $551.6k in bank. With rookies Weightman and Madden on the bubble. Is it a good week to double downgrade pre byes? as we may not have many chances to over the bye rounds. Weightman, I like and think can hold his spot. Madden, I have not watched much of and am sceptical on picking due to JS.
Should I go:
TU: Warner > Weightman, Scott > Walsh/Steele, get in a premo gun pre byes and still have around 400k in the bank for what’s to come over the next three weeks.
OR
TD: Hold Warner, Scott to Weightman (via DPP) and trade a DEAD
rookie such as Henry/Brockman/Macrae to Madden which would give me an extra warm body over the byes compared to a rookie that may not play again. (also keeping in mind, Madden also needs to hold his spot for this trade to be of benefit)
Options to trade this week are Powell, Scott and Warner.
With Scott not playing this week his price will not change. and Warner and Powell will probably drop.
Option 1
Powell & Scott to Madden & Heeny ($192K ITB)
Warner as F5
Option 2
Powell & Scott to Madden & Boak ($3K ITB)
Warner as F4. Bench cover with DPPs
Option 3
Powell & Warner to Madden & Mitchell/Boak ($20K/$37K)
No bench cover in MID of FWD
Premos – Boak and Titch fit into my bye structure best
i did a double downgrade..
Jordon – Madden
Rowe – W8man
Depending on your bye strategy this will build you some nice cash for a R13 splurge..
Good luck with your choices!
G
I’d probably do Scott and Warner out and either double down like Georgia suggests or maybe one to Heeney to help out that forward line and then downgrade to one of Weightman or Madden
To get to full premo you’ll have to do some downgrades, this is just getting a jump on downgrading cause there’s rookies available but also worth noting that full premo this year might require some pseudo premos like Heeney to pull it off
Fair just feeling a little anxious, as it feels like I’m making trades everything and afraid I’ll run out. That’s why I like this site, it allows all coaches to help one other
Bit torn on who to trade out this week, Scott is a definite, and thats going to allow me to bring in Steele and Madden this week via DPP no matter what. So who to trade out?
TU: C. Jiath ($393K, BE 118)
TD: T. Powell ($350K, BE 118)
If I go Jiath, its going to leave me with $110k coming into the byes
How many trades does everyone have left?
I will have 15 trades left after I do a double downgrade this week. I feel very anxious about it. Feel like I’m been making trades consecutively for the last four weeks. I have made trades early on in the season due to the injury carnage.
Am I the only one feeling this way?
I will have 13 after this week JJ – so don’t worry, there will be plenty of coaches worse off than you. Injuries have killed my season so far but staying hopeful that the carnage has to stop at some stage…surely?
With 14 trades left, and 5 rookies still on field, is it too much to trade Scott/McNeil to Madden/Weightman. Doing both trades nets me 323k going into the byes.
Scott gotta go this week.
Anyone know any good forward line rookies?
C.Weightman
Madden.
MADDEN OR WEIGHTMAN
Scott to Madden, Butts to Ridley. Could make these trades with my eyes closed.
T/U weightman
T/D Madden
Scott’s time is up but the question is, who to upgrade to Ridley?
T/U Kosch
T/D Jiath
Few down weeks for CJ and Kosch BE is still relatively low (59). Cheers
First thoughts have me deciding between these:
Scott and Jordon out.
TU – Steele and Madden in.
TD – Petracca and Weightman in.
TU Fyfe
TD Josh kelly
Thinking of a double downgrade this week
Scott and Powell for
TU Weightman and Maddern(366k ITB)
TD Maddern and Dale
Comment Cerra
Just realised I can go Zorko and Madden with those trades seems like a no brainer, but Cerra might still be a smokey, taking out the injury marred game and is ave a hundred at a little over 400k.
good move in preparation for the byes…both rookies could be available for the R14 bye also
Cerra has bottomed out at $408k, and minus his injury affected score in round 5, has averaged 101 this year. Serious POD
Scott > Madden
Who to trade out for Mills?
Tu; kozchie
Td; highmore
TU: Walsh and Petracca
TD: Steele and Zorko
Fwd premos currently have;
Dusty, Ziebell & impey.
Best forward premo to bring in this week?!
Any love for Heeney?
getting out Scott and probably Bergman this week, unless he is named then I might choose somebody else.
should I… double downgrade to Weightman and madden or do I get in madden and get in somebody below 450k. not many options, would probably have to be Henney
I’d double downgrade mate, try making the money now so you can afford players around or over that $450k mark that are worth it.
CJ,A.Scott > J.Madden, C.Weightman
I’m probably overthinking this but first trade will be Scott to Heeney. Second trade will be:
TU: H Clark to J Macrae via Laird
TD: Kozi to Madden or Weightman
Getting Macrae is a no brainer but just worried that there won’t be many rookies to downgrade to during byes
Better trade to roll with this week;
Already going Scott > FWD premo.
TU: Jordan > Cerra
TD: Bergmann > Madden
Thumb up: CJ and Scott to Mills and Zorko.
Thumb down: Kozi and Scott to Moore and Zorko.
Scott & McNeil OUT
Cerra & Heeney IN
Risky… but takes 2 rookies off field.
Both heeney and Cerra underpriced and im running out of trades…
Hi Balls,
They are my 2 ins this week too. They both could average 95-105 for the rest of the season and takes 2 rookies off the field. Netting your team average up 80+ a week. Just Heeney’s injury history is a concern. But, at his price it’s worth the risk.
TU: Heeney
TD: Cerra
comment below downgrade
Good luck to everyone with their Capt choices this week……….
from comment above
TU: downgrade to Weightman
Oliver
yes or no ( am just chasing points)
Comment: what is his BE
He’s a genuine must have Muzz Easily top 4 mid imo. Slide him into your side asap depending on bye structure etc
Thanks Andrew
BE of 45, projected to be $726k at the end of Round 12
Thanks guys, will have to trade Atkins and Jordan /Flynn
for Oliver and Reeves / some other rookie on the bubble
DEF – Laird, Daniel, Short, Lever, Jiath, Jones (Highmore, Murphy)
MID – Macrae, Guthrie, Fyfe, Mundy, Merrett, Taranto, Petracca, Jordon (McNeil, Macrae, Fyfe)
RUC – Gawn, Hickey (Flynn)
FWD – Ziebell, Zorko, Impey, Martin, Rowe, Poulter (Scott, Brockman)
14 trades and $6.5k remaining.
Tell you what, I panicked so bad when Guthrie got injured XD But I’m happy he got back on and played it out.
A bit confused on what I should do here to be honest.
I have a few people who’ve peaked and are starting to lose money, like Scott and McNeil.
Jordon is pretty much there, but he’s more than capable of reaching is BE of 75 and he’s proven to be handy, so I can probably hold onto him for a little while longer.
I also have Jiath who is struggling to break past $400k and not doing well recently.
So I’m not sure whether I should only make one trade or both, because they’re running out fast with all the side trades I had to make for injured players throughout the season.
If I can spare one trade at least, I was considering doing the one downgrade to someone like Madden or Weightman, just so I can make up some spare cash.
What are your thoughts?
You’ve gotta back in your premos and midpricers through the byes. Could go Scott-Madden but you’re on the cusp of trade trouble going into the byes.
Thoughts on big Benny Cunnington…
scores of 134,142 last two weeks
breakeven of 30 and 514k
T/U – Get him in
T/D – Play it safe and wait for a full premo like bont, lyons
ps already have macrae and oliver
A little stuck with what to do this week! Would love some advice!
Def – mills, laird, Stewart, Daniel, Ridley, Jones, (Murphy, highmore)
Mids- bont, Oliver, macrae, Merrett, Cripps, Taranto, jordon, Powell (Scott, berry, brockman)
Rucks – gawndy (flynn)
Forwards – ziebell, zorko, dusty, rowe, poulter, waterman (bergman, mccreery)
$36k in bank
I’d look at the 2 downgrade options of Madden & Weightman to make some cash. Powell & Scott could make way for 1 or 2, depending on your trade situation.
Scott to Weightman
Butts to Madden
T/U – Yes
T/D – No
Hi SCT’ers
Was going to get Oliver but can’t afford him now
TU- Double downgrade? Madden & Weightman
TD- 1 up 1 down – most likely Weightman and anyone under 630k
Cheers
P.s only 12 trades remain
How many upgrades do you have left? Because 12 trades isn’t looking good with the byes still to come.
Has Jiath run his race?
T/U yes move him before he loses more money
T/D no having a bad patch but can still score in the 90’s
TU Zerrett
TD Jelly
Round 10 team;
Lloyd, Laird, Houston, May, Jiath, Kosi (L.Jones, Highmore)
J.Macrae, Walsh, J. Kelly, Toranto, T.Kelly, Brayshaw, Heppell, Martin (Poulter, McNeil, F.Macrae)
Gawndy (Hunter)
Ziebell, Sidebottom, Daniher, Heeney, Scott, waterman (Bergman, Fullarton)
15 trades remaining, 3.6k ITB
TU: Scott to weightman & CJ to Ridley + 20K ITB
TD: Scott to weightman & Bergman to Madden + $259K ITB
Comment: Scott to Weightman & Fullarton to Madden + 152K ITB this gives me another active body through the bye rounds & Bergman more on the fringe to get game time than Fullarton
How about trade Hunter and swing Fullarton to the ruck bench. Might be able to use the dpp later on.
What are everyone’s thoughts on Darcy Moore, playing back in defence he’s put up some big scores. Not sustainable? He’s awfully cheap with a low BE.
Is anyone else having trouble accessing the chat rooms in SC?
Wighty and Sledgers League – I can’t get into any chats and am getting withdrawals from the sh** that gets said.
Have deleted and reinstalled the app but still not working. Any clues?
Same here SG, can access on my laptop but not on phone!
Have far too many Rd 12 rookies, so have to fix that this week. Koschitzke and Bergman out, a couple of options for ins:
TU Cerra and Weightman
TD Ridley and Madden
Isaac Heeney
B/E & price very very low
Consistent as top 6 fwd in past but has potential injury concerns of last year
Worth the trade?
T/U – Heeney
T/D – Gray
tu Weightman
td Madden
Scott – Madden
Bergman – Steele (Suits my byes)
150k banked
Why are ppl preferring Madden to Weightman? Is it just his price is lower or is it his JS?
Has js with Lester out for the next 2-3 weeks and is 50k odd cheaper
Tu) Warner & Mcneil -> Madden & Titch
30k ITB
Td)
Mcneil & H. Jones -> Heeney & Madden
190k ITB (single upgrade next week)
13 trades / 3 rooks on field
Current team with 17 trades, $235.2k bank.
Ranked 6070.
D: Laird, Lloyd, Daniel, Ridley, Cumming, CJ (Jones, Highmore)
M: Oliver, JMac, Guthrie, Zerrett, Titch, Green, Jordon, RCD (Poulter, Byrnes, Sharp)
R: Gawndy (Flynn)
F: Ziebell, Dusty, Daniher, Warner, Rowe, Scott (Atu, Treacy)
Pretty good bank but would like it to be larger for my shopping spree during the byes. Zorko, Stewart, Dale, Lyons, Bont, Steele, Heeney are all on my radar.
Scott is a definite out for me this week. Downgrade to Madden/Weightman gives me extra cash but going up to Heeney/Dale gives me one less rookie infield and less shopping dollars.
If I double downgrade or paint the fence who is the other out? Can’t be Treacy as I’m saving him for when I cash out Flynn in R14.
Atu and Highmore have low BEs and dollars to make, but will they play again soon?
Warner?…I like his consistency and the fact that he’s playing.
Jordon?…one down week, should bounce back.
What do you think coaches?
T/U: one trade only…keep your powder dry
T/D: two trades…have a go ya mug
If two trades then…
T/U: double down (Madden and Weightman)
T/D: paint the fence (one of the above and Henney/Dale)
Currently 246K in the bank and 6 on field rookies left and 13 trades left.
Downgrade Rowe and Prior to Weightman and Madden gives me 511K in the bank to double upgrade Jordon and Powell next week.
Or Rowe to Weightman and upgrade Powell to Oliver leaving 80K and having to 1 up 1 down next week to upgrade Jordon.
I’ve held Bolton who might be back this week so he’s effectively giving me an extra premo in this week only leaving 1 forward rookie on field. Because of this I’m leaning towards option 1 to turn Powell and Jordon into Oliver and Lyons or Bont. Leaving 3 on field rookies with Scott and Flynn both to downgrade at some point.
Any thoughts?
Scott > Madden
Can’t decide on my upgrade.
TU: Jiath > Lloyd
TD: Jordan > Zorko
Just my early thoughts but is Madden worth a trade ? Brisbane playing 2 more rounds before their bye. Does he play after that? Answerth 1 week away and Jack Payne 2/3 weeks away. Thinking Weightman although more expensive is a better option. Thoughts?
I agree. Weightman exciting player and reckon he keeps his spot and with dogs scoring capacity he will get more of ball then madden. Worth the extra cash
Thoughts on this trade
A. Scott to D. Martin
B. Campbell to J. Madden
Is Travis Boak an option?? Averaging 110 and only 536k. Might bring him in round 13 after his bye
cj and Jordan out
Dusty and who?
T/U Whitfield
T/D Ridley
Hey guys,
Powell & Scott out.
T/U – McLuggage & Madden.
T/U – Steele & Weightman.
Thank you.
Steele & Madden
TU – McNeil > Zorko (Jordan/Poulter to bench)
TD hold trade (Jordan and Poulter stay m7 and m8)
Bailey Smith at $400k with Treloar going down.
T/U: I like it
T/D: I don’t like it
Lachie Hunter might be the one to look at there
Bulldogs CBA’s once Treloar went off the ground injured in Rnd 10.
Macrae 13
Bont 11
Libba 10
B. Smith 10
Hunter 4 (first attendance for 2021)
Or Libba
CJ?
TU:Out
TD:Hold
Also
Lyons
OR
Bont
Will bring both in eventually but who comes first
Bont BE 105, Lyons BE 118.
So probably Bont?
Thanks GD
TU:- Lachie Hunter
TD:- Bailey Smith
this is kinda tough…
T/U – Bont
T/D – Steele + 94k
Bont is just superman, steele has a pretty good run coming up and scored a solid 99 v bulldogs last week where points were heavily favoured towards dogs.
cheers guys
If byes don’t effect you. Steele
Especially if you can use that 100k elsewhere.
Hey guys,
Just going to put all of my thoughts on a few comments, please read through…
I have 3 options.
Option 1 is: CJ and Sholl/MID rookie -> Bontempelli and Madden
Option 2: CJ and Scott -> Daniel and Madden
Option 3: CJ and Scott -> Zorko and Madden
So
TU: Option 1
TD: Option 2
TU comment: Option 3
Option 3
Who goes out: Sholl, Jordon, or Powell
TU: Sholl
TD: Jordon
TU comment: Powell
Powell
Time to go CJ?
Lyons
OR
Bont
Will get both in and gunboat pointed out Bont has a smaller BE so will probably get him in first
Madden
OR
Weightman
Have no idea what Madden’s JS is like but Weightman’s seems pretty good
Hard to say for Madden given Lester is looking to be back after their bye. Gardner needs surgery for his shoulder so he won’t be pushing him out. I would say it’s either him or Coleman that makes way for Lester when that time comes.
Daniel
OR
Rich
Want one with the round 13 bye, so rules out Callum Mills. Any better options?
Is Zorko the best Forward option?
Don’t want anyone with a round 14 bye, but there’s still Impey and more…
Is Madden the best rookie DEF?
Who is the best rookie MID?
Does Waterboy possibly keep his spot???
You’d have to think so:
Seems Bomber fans love him
Didn’t really put a foot wrong yesterday.
Thanks abs
And does Scott stay in the team???
Thanks guys
Thoughts on
Jordon > Walsh
Scott > Madden
Cheers
Who goes out? Gulden, Scott, or Warner
TU: Gulden
TD: Scott
Comment: Warner
Most likely going Scott -> cerra
In order to fund this
TU: Kozzy to madden
TD: Bergman to weightman
Thoughts on Darcy Parish? I must admit that I didn’t think too much of him a month back but definitely starting to come into my calculations. Seems to be heading towards a price tag of 630K+ at this rate and you’d think any possible tags would go to Merrett. Bit of a POD too with 4% selection.
TU: Good POD selection
TD: Too expensive and not proven
To trade in
TU Weightman and Cerra + 40k
TD Madden and Zorko
Tu: Cerra/ M8… yes I have 7 premium mids already
Td: Heeney/f4
Any thought Zac Bailey similar price. M/F.
TU: Jordan/Scott -> Madden/Weightman +360k
TD: Jordan/Scott ->Madden/Steele
Worried about future downgrade options but would prefer to continue to strengthen. Tough league match up this week vs big kitty to start the byes.
t/u – daniel
t/d – whitfield
thanks team
T/U Touk Miller
T/D Guthrie (if fit)
Cheers!
Do I go Scott to Heeney as my F6? Got ziebell, hall, dusty, Zorko and impey already
Solid F6 IMO.
Good trade
Is he gonna get inj?
Heeney not on your never again list due to injuries ??
Who would you bring in?
TU Ridley ($107,000 ITB)
TD Mills ($17,000 ITB)
Cheers
TU: Scott and Robertson > Madden and Weightman
TD: Scott and Robertson > Madden and Zorko
Comment: Only Scott>Madden, upgrade Robertson next week or two since his BE is 30 odd
Comment for Scott>Madden
Jordan to:
TU: Walsh
TD: McCluggage
T/U – A.Hall
T/D – Impey
The two most popular downgrade targets. Which one would you take over the other?
T/U – Weightman
T/D – Madden
Cheers,
B321
Madden. Going up $40 less that Weightman, but $50k cheaper, and has dpp
In my opinion Weightman has the greater security.
Hey guys any advice/thoughts would be appreciated!
DEF: Laird, Lloyd, Daniel, Ridley, Moore & Kosi – (Highmore, sharp)
MID: Oliver, Lyons, Macrae, Guthrie, Taranto, Boak, Cripps, Jordon – (RCD, Poulter & Bruhn)
FWD: Ziebell, Martin, T.Phillips, Warner, Scott, Rowe – (Brockman, Waterman)
Rucks: Gawn, Flynn – (Martin)
16 Trades and 330K in bank
T/U – Hold rookies like Warner, Jordon etc through to their bye rounds knowing they will lose a bit more cash
T/D – Double downgrade this week with Weightman and madden on the bubble and bank as much cash as possible heading into the byes
Thanks all
Scott is the one that has to go. Plenty of money for an upgrade in
your forward line.
T/U – Merrett
T/D – Zorko
Need some advice about the deadwood I need to cleanout…
need to trade Scott, Warner, Koschitzke, Sharp in the near future.
Current status – 103.9k bank, 14 trades.
DEF: Stewart, Daniel, Ridley, Short, Saad, Koschitzke (Highmore, Sharp)
MID: Oliver, Kelly, Laird, Boak, Wines, Martin, Scott, RCD (Byrnes, Brockman, Bruhn)
RUC: Grundy, Gawn (Fullarton)
FWD: Ziebell, Hawkins, Impey, Daniher, Dahlhaus, Poulter (Warner, Waterman)
I like the DPP on Laird which is now handy for the Byes etc. I’m looking for some Def/Mid options: Having a playing rookie to replace sharp is handy.
This is what I was thinking, but I am open to options.
TU: Scott + Koschize >> Blicavs + Murray (87k ).
TD: Koschize + Sharp >> Morrison + Murray (43k)
DOuble Downgrade Scott and Kosi to Madden and weightman via poulter or madden and byrnes to earn some kanga 🙂
Thinking of trading Scott to Madden and Powell to Mitchell this week. I’m left with $564k when I get Madden in, and I really want Fyfe ($6k short) or Walsh ($9k short). I also don’t have any non-playing rookies which give me a VC loophole option. Do I:
T/up – get Mitchell in and get another playing rookie (Madden)
T/down – Bank more cash by getting in a non-playing rookie ($102k) so I can get in Fyfe or Walsh and also have a VC loophole option
Have you got any rookies worth more than Scott? You could trade out a Jordon or Warner instead if it gets you to the player you’d prefer. If you’re really close, Deven Robertson will get you an extra $8k. I definitely see the need to get rid of Scott but you want to be happy with your premos so it’s sometimes worth it if you can get someone you want by getting rid of a different rookie.
Cheers for the reply. I don’t have anyone else worth more than Scott besides Jordon and Powell of course. But I feel like I can still hold Jordon for a bit longer so I can eventually upgrade him.
I’m just a bit confused about the downgrade to Robertson you mentioned. By trading Jordon to Robertson, it only leaves me with $132k to upgrade Powell. Trading Scott to Madden gives me $213k to upgrade Powell. However, if I get a $102k non-playing rookie it gives me $235k to upgrade Powell and provides a Captaincy loophole option, which I currently don’t have.
Sorry, meant if you had Robertson you could downgrade him instead of Scott.
As for the Jordon one, definitely fair to hold onto him over Scott. I was more just saying that if you’ll upgrade him at some stage anyway, you could just pull the trigger now to get someone you like more than Mitchell. Your current plans are solid, I was just providing an alternative option.
Ahh yes, sorry I misunderstood what you were saying. Appreciate the input, cheers!
Could consider axing Powell with two low scores, although his bye is R12… depends on bench coverage
ROUND 10 TEAM – 36.6k in bank – 15 trades
Def – Mills, Laird, Llyod, Ridley, Stewart, Jones – sub Highmore, Murphy
Mid – Oliver, Macrae, Guthrie, Walsh, Merrett, Brayshaw, Jordan, Powell – subs RCD, Poulter, Downing
Rucks – Gawn, Grundy sub – Flynn
Fwds- Ziebell, Impey, Martin, Warner, Scott, Waterman – subs Mccreery, Fullarton
Pretty happy with how I’m travelling at the moment. Just looking for some trade ideas this week. This is what I’ve come up with. If anyone can suggest any other trades please comment!
Was thinking Powell, Warner – Weightman, Madden (swap scott and poulter to mid and bring in steele for scott next week) – 408.5k
Any other trade suggestions would be great!
I’d probably look at trading Scott out before Warner. Has a higher breakeven and a lower average so will probably lose more cash.
Considering a double “upgrade” to get down to 2 rookies left on field, so Scott to Heeney and then:
TU: Kozi to Dale
TD: Jordon to Walsh
Jiath –> Weightman
Scott –> Touk Miller
Trading out Scott and Kosch
T/U Weightman and Ridley (56k leftover)
T/D Madden and Mills (13k left over)
Trading out Powell & Scott
TU: Weightman & Madden ($338k bank)
TD: Hall & Madden ($31k bank)
or below, Heeney & Madden ($165k bank)
Heeney & Madden
Bit of a dilemma, 12 trades left:
Team:
Def: Laird, Stewart, Ridley, Short, Kosi, L.Jones (Bowes, N. Murphy)
Mid: Bontempelli, Oliver, Guthrie, Steele, Merrett, Petracca, Jordan, Collier-Dawkins (Brockman, Bruhn, Holmes)
Ruck: Gawn, Grundy (Flynn)
Fwd: Ziebell, Zorko, Martin, A. Scott, Rowe, Poulter (McCreery, Waterman)
TU:
A. Scott, Jordan > Madden, Walsh
TD:
Save trades
Who is priority Trade Out?
TU Anthony Scott
TD Jordan Clark
Thanks
Scott not likely to play this week, so Jordan.
Looking ahead at Richmond’s draw, they only have 4 games against the current top 8.
Is it worth bringing Dusty in now, before the byes @ 433k?
TU: Get him in now. Cheap and a fwd-lock, rd12 is gunna beat you anyway
TD: Hold off. Look at Heeney or comparable and save some cash / get Dusty later
16 trades with 6 spots left to upgrade (3 Mids, 3 Fwds):
T/U Jordan & Scott to Bont & Weightman
T/D Jordan & Scott to Bazlenka & Heeney
See below re Madden not Weightman if only trading one.
Just the one this week. Thanks for your service as C Ford, but you can make way for Madden which means 28 warm bodies, not including Highmore……now I HAVE put a curse on my team !! Treacy can hopefully take over as C for this week, then anyone for bye rounds. No room for Weightman…Madden is going up by $40k less than Weightman over three weeks, but is $50k cheaper. And Madden has dpp.
Lester is a sneaky chance to come back this week apparently. Not sure how long Madden stays in.
Powell to Heeney same price?
No…heeney one attack on the ball away from a three week injury !!
I agree despite all the thumbs down. Heeney is currently missing some training sessions every week due to soreness. Only a matter of time before he doesn’t get up for some games.
Hello need helo with decisions this week –
Bank – 184900
15 Trades
Def: Mills, Laird, Lloyd, Stewart, Daniel, Short (Bowes*, Higmore)
Mid: Oliver, Macrae, Steele, Merrett, Cripps, Brayshaw, Jordan, Poulter, (Collier-Dawkins, sharp, Fyfe)
Ruck: Gawn, Grundy (Flynn)
Fwd: Ziebell, Impey, Robertson, A. Scott*, Waterman, McCreery (Macrae, Fullarton)
So i have Bowes as an Extra in defence who im considering trading and scott in the forward who needs to go now..
TU: trade Bowes dpp sharp to def and bring in premo mid, can get any..
then trade scott to weightman for some cash – 100k ITB if i go Bont (Is weightman a must have rookie??)
TD: Trade Bowes to Ridley and move laird to mids and trade scott to Dusty – 13k ITB
Please give me any other suggestions, even if it means holding bowes (could just swap laird with sharp when bowes returns) if you think thats more worth and going 1 up 1 down with a Jordan to A MID maybe ..?
Need to fix the forward line. Fullarton and McCreery won’t play, Scott probably won’t play, Macrae probably won’t score much if he does play.
Scott and McCreery out
Madden/Weightman and a fwd premium in – think Dale, Hall, Hind etc
Dusty as the forward premium to bring in would be a good choice
I’m 20k off being able to go CJ and Powell to Bont and Madden.
Who goes instead?
TU: Sholl
TD: Jordon
HEENEY?
Current team
Def:
Mills, Daniel, Ridley, Moore, Br Smith, Kozi (L Jones, M Murphy)
Mid:
Taranto, Petracca, Wines, McGrath, Cripps, Ba Smith, Powell, RCD (Poulter, Lazzaro, Downie)
Ruck:
Grundy, Hickey (Flynn)
Fwd:
Ziebell, Zorko, Martin, Daniher, Heeney, Degoey
(Robertson, Macrae)
$46K in bank 16 trades left
Thinking of trading down Flynn to Treacy then either:
TU: Powell to Steele
TD: Degoey to fwd premo (no idea who)
2 trades this week: Madden and Heeney in
TU: trade out jiath and scott
TD: trade out scott and mcreery (as mccreery is now injured)
Neither trade effects my byes, leaning towards the TU as jiath and scott will lose cash whereas mccreery will stay the same
Hi guys- Round 10 Team
Mills Laird Stewart Short Lloyd Jiath (kozi highmore)
Oliver Macrae Merrett Walsh Taranto Mitchell Powell Jordan (RCD Brockman Sharp)
Gawn Grundy ( Flynn)
Zieball Impey Martin Warner Poulter Bergman (Rowe Scott)
15 trades and only $9800 banked
Was thinking
T/U – Scott and Bergman/Powell (which one?) out Madden and Weightman in to get more in bank!! For byes and proper upgrades or
T/D – Scott and bergman/Powell (which one?) out madden/weightman (which one?) and Heeney in
Please and advice or other suggestions would be much appreciated – thanks
For above who goes first?
T/U Powell – playing but losing cash
T/D Bergman – not playing but still has more cash to make
T/U -heeney in for Powell – leaves 121k banked but lose some dpp mid/fwd options for byes and Bergman on bench (does that make any difference?) or
T/D – heeney in for Bergman – leaves only 48k but more flexibility with more dpp mid/fwd options still available through byes
Heeney will miss games, too risky for my liking.
What do we think of Darcy Parish as a top premo since his move back to the mid?
Looking at downgrading Warner this week to Weightman or Madden
T/U Taking Madden enables me to exchange Heppell at M7 to a C.Oliver or Lyons
T/D Taking Weightman (who can probably score better) gets me a cheaper premo (like Parish)
Got my last DEF upgrade to go. currently have:
Laird, Lloyd, Stewart, May, Ridley and L.Jones
Have Kosi on the pine and thinking of trading to Z.Williams as he is cheap, am I jumping the gun? Or should wait for another downgrade to get Mills/Rich etc for my last DEF spot.
I would say to have a long look at Whitfield, I’ll be bringing him in next week or maybe after his byes at a bit more expensive price. Now that hes got match fitness in him, I cant see him averaging less than 100
Thanks Aka, Love it!
T/U Steele
T/D Petracca (+40k)
This week’s decision:
TU: Double downgrade Kozi & Scott -> Madden & Weightman
TD: Kozi & Scott -> Madden and a premo (will only have $459k to work with)
It’s doing my head finding a mid premo to get this week. Been tossing and turning between Steele, Mitchell and Kelly and then also the onfield rookie headache between Weightman and Madden.
With the way Kelly has been doing in the past 3-4 weeks, he looks real solid in the mids and with the team finally winning I cant see him going back into the forward line unless something drastic happens. Opposite for Steele though, rough 3-4 weeks with saints playing local level footy but Steele still pumping 90’s and 100’s, if they do end up turning it around cant see his price getting any lower.
Pls help me find where to go so I can sleep in peace.
Grab whichever premo suits your byes, Aka.
Guessing Titch or J. Kelly at R12 would work best? Out of them I’d lean towards Titch just on continuity of role and as a shield against his higher ownership.
I’m also confounded on Weightman v Madden. I’ll drum up a poll for it.
Thoughts on Boak? Same bye as those two, slightly cheaper and averaging a bit more but he is more boring
Yeah. I really like Boak, Johnno. Considering him this week.
Port’s #1 CB attendee, nice ceiling and rotation cap has kept him above 80% TOG this year. His floor of 80 is a touch annoying, but can grab him at 536k and splurge elsewhere.
Aka had said he was tossing up between Steele, Titch and Kelly, which is why I didn’t mention him.
I’ve loaded up on R13 & R14 bye premos, with my available premos breakdown as per below:
R12 – 14
R13 – 9
R14 – 9
Based on this, what’s the best move?
T/U – Bring in a RD12 bye player this week, to help with RD13 & RD14
T/D – Bring in Bont, and target RD12 bye players in RD13
T/u: Walsh
T/d: Mitchell
J Hogan +Gulden > Zac Smith and Weightman
Fwd line copping a hammering and cover for Grundies
Who to trade out to bring in playing rookies
Tu Bergman
Td Frederick
Wait on teamsheets, Bob.
One of them comes in for Hartlett this week.
Scott out for madden
Jordan out for Dusty
Is dusty a must right now?
Should I trade Jiath out now as he has the bye their weekend?
Potentially but with best 18, it’s not quite as urgent cause if he has a bad score it doesn’t impact things as much except for the press. Hawks and suns are all of a sudden better to have cause they’ll be playing through all bye rounds which could be a huge advantage. Just depends how much more he can drop or if he can bounce back and be a bit fresher after his bye
Old plan – get Tom Mitchell after his bye.
New plan – get Tom Mitchell after his bye.
Who to VC?
Like post: Gawn
Dislike post: Macrae
Comment: Bontempelli
To answer your question in the Coaches box.
You select your team as normal *( 22 players and emergencies) and at the end of the round only your 18 highest scoring players count towards your final score for the round.
* That is if you can field a complete team with Hawthorn and Gold Coast players not playing.
Good luck.
Tu – Fyfe
Td – Powel pepper – dpp and cash left over
Comment – Cerra for the smokey choice
Cerra
TU – Cerra & Heeney ($2k left over)
TD – Steele & Madden ($70k left over)
Still unsure of Heeney…
Have the identical predicament
Following early season injury carnage I have no option but to take risks and forecast premos/potential premos at the lower end fo their price cycle who I think can improve and finish the year strongly. Would love to pot out the cash for an Oliver or Macrae but just gonna have to work a bit harder given the situation I find myself in. I brought in Jelly at the bottom of his price cycle a few weeks ago and that’s working out ok – just need to repeat a few times
Any thoughts on these names.
Petracca – 525k – in brownlow /“best player in the game”discussions but not scoring as well as last year. Oliver outscoring him by 200+ [points over the last few weeks has to be an aberration or not?
L Hunter – 466k – seemed to be the dog squeezed out of the action when they had a full playing deck but now with Dunkley and Treloar down is this his time..?
Whitfield – gathering momentum in a similar way to last year after injury
Ridley – obvious one but slight concerns over the role of Redman impacting his scores. Seems to go better when the bombers get beaten – are they likely to fall away like other years..?
Any ideas of some forwards that may fit in the above category extremely welcome. I know about Heeney but I am staying away for the same reasons I stayed away from Marshall 2 weeks ago. Prefer to take risks on the form of genuine quality that on fitness concerns for now.
Give us some thoughts…
Based on above:
TU: Petracca
TD: Hunter
Based on above:
TU: Whitfield (but probably wait until after GWS bye)
TD: Ridley
Hi guys – feedback please
1st trade will be Scott to Weightman
2nd trade?
T/U – Powell to Heeney (leaves 117k)
T/D – Powell to Madden (leaves 344k and can go straight to any premium next round)
Comment Powell or Bergman out?
For above please note that currently Powell and Scott(and Bergman) are all on the bench
Do many people have plans to get Lachie Neale back into there team once he returns from injury? If he gets back to his best he could be an absolute steal at his current price. I know he’s still a couple weeks away but I’m surprised this isn’t a more spoken about topic.
TU: Lachie Neale is well and truely in my calculations
TD: I’ll be looking at other options to finish my midfield
As a luxury trade, I will be looking to change Taranto into a Neale later on (if i have trades left).
He does have a low breakeven but even if he comes back and scores a low ton and goes up in price a bit, i reckon it would still be worth it to see how he performs first.
Yep, one of the benefits of not racing to get full premo too early.
I’ve held him since his injury due to only really playing for SC finals + dealing with other issues in my team. I’m very confident that he’ll come back and be itching for kicks!
Quietly hoping that other teams will keep paying more attention to Lyons/mcgluggage/zorko who have all been in good form and helped the lions to 8 wins in a row
With the return of Covid screwing everyone up to best 18 scorers. I was looking to double upgrade but now I’ll just go 1half up and 1 down. Heeney and Weightman in. Then probably get Touk Miller in round 12 since I already have Mitchell.
Is best 18 confirmed ??
Sort of. But the Hawthorn/GC game might still go ahead in Sydney. If it does I expect the round would score as normal.
GWS vs Lions you mean?
Geez Wighty, am surprised you can manage a team when you don’t know who’s playing each week!!!!
But seriously why would they suspend an all non-Vic team game or are you talking about North vs Saints? I’m confused mate
I actually meant GCS v hawks can you believe !!! But I’m totally confused now anyway. I’m still drunk on the magnificent form reversal of my team !! Looking forward to our R17 showdown !!!
Will Heeney be a top 8 forward from here on out?
TU: yes
TD: no
would love people’s thoughts on the Heeney pick in general too…
On my never again list for a reason…too fragile.
TU Jack Lukosius
TD Bailey Smith
Thanks
Lukosious not playing this week
Hawks Suns game back on, Wighty.
Check Coaches Box.
Source GD ??
Yep
Does anyone have any toilet paper I can buy?!?! Lol
Yep….cost you two trades !!
Never mind then I’ll just use my Collingwood membership lol
Reckon toilet paper wins over your membership !!
So with Oscar Clavarino on debut, what does that mean for Highmore? Does he miss again?
If they seriously debut an intercepting defender ahead of giving Highmore a run, jeez.
Only hope would be Hill omitted, Geary rested and the two of Clavarino and Highmore in.
There’ll be lotsa changes at the Saints this week. Highmore still a chance (please)
Is that the best name since Steele Sidebottom ??
Clavarino and now Bianco named.
They both seem promising going forward, but I need guys playing R14!
Can anyone shed any light on Jones (Port) injury? Cheers
I don’t know about the injury but he’s been named for Sunday
I am unaware of any injury to Lachie Jones and as Johnno wrote Jones is selected to play Sunday.
They were just monitoring the ankle that sidelined him recently, it was his first game back last week. Need to stay vigilant post-syndesmosis injury.
Looks to have gotten through main training np, named on field and good to go.
Tu Steele
Td Titch
I was planning on holding Hunter Clark to see if he could bounce back against the Roos but now might be trading him.
TU: H Clark to Macrae
TD: rookie downgrade to build cash for byes
TU – Warner to Hall
TD – Jordan to Boak
Jiath ->
TU Stewart
TD Lloyd
HClark & Scott -> Walsh & Madden
HClark & Scott -> Cerra & Weightman + $150k itb
I need to get rid of Scott and Warner this week.
TU: Double Downgrade to Madden and Weightman
TD: Downgrade to Madden and Heeney
or should i go weightman and heeney?
Who to bring in
T/U – Steele
T/D – Boak
I know steele probably a better selection, but saints are putrid and not scoring much, boak plays for a top 4 team and will be likely playing a lot of games out of vic and boak is much better for my bye plans.
TU : Steele & Madden – No cash in the bank
TD: Cerra & Weightman – $140k in the bank
Bit indecisive in what to do this week. Currently have $551.6k in bank. With rookies Weightman and Madden on the bubble. Is it a good week to double downgrade pre byes? as we may not have many chances to over the bye rounds. Weightman, I like and think can hold his spot. Madden, I have not watched much of and am sceptical on picking due to JS.
Should I go:
TU: Warner > Weightman, Scott > Walsh/Steele, get in a premo gun pre byes and still have around 400k in the bank for what’s to come over the next three weeks.
OR
TD: Hold Warner, Scott to Weightman (via DPP) and trade a DEAD
rookie such as Henry/Brockman/Macrae to Madden which would give me an extra warm body over the byes compared to a rookie that may not play again. (also keeping in mind, Madden also needs to hold his spot for this trade to be of benefit)
Cheers
TU: Shai Bolton
TD: Bailey Dale
Any other forwards I should be looking at around this price range?
Lads is there usually a ‘Who to Field’ section on this website. Because I’m struggling whether to field Kosch or Madden.
and do you guys know when the ‘who to captain’ bit comes out??
Captaincy Candidates is already up, Sloany. : http://supercoachtalk.com/captaincy-candidates-round-11-2/
Who To Field will be up later today.
cheers chillo
Dead rookie to trade out:
TU Brockman
TD Downie
Scott has already been downgraded to Weightman.
Which other rookie to downgrade for Madden this week?
TU: Kozi (BE: 43)
TD: Jordon (BE: 75)
See comment for Mccreery (could be out for 2 weeks)
TU: Mccreery (BE: 25 and injured)
Always slightly concerning when you get to Friday and still don’t know what trades to make…
T/U
Jordon –> Steele
Treloar –> Cerra
Field Waterman
T/D
Treloar –> Cerra
Scott –> Dale
Field Jordon
Comment:
Treloar –> Merrett
Scott –> Heeney
Field Jordon
Comment:
Treloar –> Merrett
Scott –> Heeney
Decided I need to avoid R13 bye premos to help structure. Best pickup this week:
T/U – Petracca
T/D – Boak
Comment – Go Cerra & Heeney, and avoid Weightman & Madden
T/U – Cerra & Heenry
Get rid of brockman
or bruhn
either
Already have Oliver, Macrae, Duncan, Steele, Merrett, and Cripps. Got $564k to get another mid. Trade Powell to:
T/up – Titch
T/down – Josh Kelly
OR:
T/up – Boak
T/down – Libba
Who to keep as the warm body until round 14
T/U Jordan
T/D Warner
The other will be traded out this week for Madden
Tu Warner/Scott to Weightman/Madden
Td Warner/Scott to Steele/Madden
So basically double downgrade or one down one up.
T/U – Jordan to Titch
T/D – McNeil to Boak
Options to trade this week are Powell, Scott and Warner.
With Scott not playing this week his price will not change. and Warner and Powell will probably drop.
Option 1
Powell & Scott to Madden & Heeny ($192K ITB)
Warner as F5
Option 2
Powell & Scott to Madden & Boak ($3K ITB)
Warner as F4. Bench cover with DPPs
Option 3
Powell & Warner to Madden & Mitchell/Boak ($20K/$37K)
No bench cover in MID of FWD
Premos – Boak and Titch fit into my bye structure best
Who should I bring in?
T/U Madden and Darcy Moore
T/D Madden and Heeney
17 Trades Left. Have 15 Keepers.
TU below gives me 17 possible keepers but not without risk
TD: 16 Keepers but better for R14 bye plus extra $$$
TU: Warner & Jordan -> Boulton & Heeney through DPP 7k itb
TD: Warner & Jordan -> Titch/Walsh & Weightman – 105 to 135K itb
Hi all, any advice/feedback would be greatly appreciated!!
DEF: Mills, Laird, Lloyd, Stewart, Short, L.Jones (Kosi, Highmore)
MID: Oliver, Macrae, Walsh, ZMerrett, Titch, Jordon, A.Scott, RCD (Byrnes, Brockman, Downie)
RUC: Gawn, Grundy (Flynn)
FWD: Ziebell, Impey, Dusty, Warner, Rowe, Poulter (Waterman, Treacy)
17 trades left, $14,500 ITB
Cheers!!
i did a double downgrade..
Jordon – Madden
Rowe – W8man
Depending on your bye strategy this will build you some nice cash for a R13 splurge..
Good luck with your choices!
G
I’d probably do Scott and Warner out and either double down like Georgia suggests or maybe one to Heeney to help out that forward line and then downgrade to one of Weightman or Madden
If I double downgrade this week will I have enough trades to go full premo?
To get to full premo you’ll have to do some downgrades, this is just getting a jump on downgrading cause there’s rookies available but also worth noting that full premo this year might require some pseudo premos like Heeney to pull it off
Fair just feeling a little anxious, as it feels like I’m making trades everything and afraid I’ll run out. That’s why I like this site, it allows all coaches to help one other
T/U Zorko in FWD
T/D Bolton in FWD

How many trades does everyone have left?
I will have 15 trades left after I do a double downgrade this week. I feel very anxious about it. Feel like I’m been making trades consecutively for the last four weeks. I have made trades early on in the season due to the injury carnage.
Am I the only one feeling this way?
I have 12 trades now, will put the brakes on!
Who to field?
TU Highmore
TD Lachie Jones (injury?)
Thanks
I will have 13 after this week JJ – so don’t worry, there will be plenty of coaches worse off than you. Injuries have killed my season so far but staying hopeful that the carnage has to stop at some stage…surely?
17 Trades Left. Have 15 Keepers.
TU leaves me with 15 keepers but with 460k itb to use over the byes
TD: 16 Keepers -105 – 125k itb
TU: Warner & Jordan -> Madden & Weightman
TD: Warner & Jordan -> Titch/Walsh & Weightman
TU: Kosi -> Ridley & Jordon -> Steele ($7k left)
TD: Kosi -> Madden & Jordon -> Bont ($300k left)
Hey everyone!
With 14 trades left, and 5 rookies still on field, is it too much to trade Scott/McNeil to Madden/Weightman. Doing both trades nets me 323k going into the byes.
TU: Do both trades
TD: Scott to Madden
Please comment if you have any other suggestions.
Thanks everybody!
Should I keep Andrew Brayshaw?
Cheers
10 trades left after a double downgrade this week and $446 K in the bank. 5 premos to go. Thoughts?

TD: Bailey Dale (with Trelor’s injury maybe he’ll score better?)
TU: Zorko
TD: Boak
TU: Scott and Jordan > Mills (via dpp) and Weightman
TD: Scott and Warner > Zorko and Madden
Who to field:
T/U – Poulter
