  1. Off topic but going to need CD to start releasing how they score each game because some of the scoring this season has been realllllllly weird

    1. I’m not suggesting it , but with bookies running DT/SC points markets, surely there is oversight on CD game calling teams?

        1. Yep, example is Neale was 1.85 to score over 100 Dt points last Thurs. I’m not a gambler.If a game caller tags a long kick to a contest which spills off the pack as ineffectual or if it’s a contested mark by the oppo and it’s tagged a turnover, because of a betting interest of the caller. Would people agree that that’s point shaving( as it’s called in the states) which is why I’m wondering about oversight of cd…

    1. Couple of down weeks in terms of SuperCoach scoring, however definitely hold. Will be a top 6 forward come end of year!

      1. 25 touches and a goal, the role is there and he still put up a respectable 70. I wouldn’t be trading cogs. Still goes 105+ imo.

    1. Geez i like Stewart who has runs on the board and is a POD now! Buuut sick and tired of watching Daicos tear teams a new one and feel i am forced to get on that train…

  2. What are we all doing with docherty?
    Usually I’m against trading premiums, however the role is the concerning factor for mine. Has he bleed too much cash already?

    1. Bled too much already, and hopefully shifting back to his preferred role on halfback with the return of 3 mids

  3. Need to replace Nank the Tank.
    I got him in because Cameron needed to be replaced who I got in because Gawn also needed to be replaced.
    I can’t get English in unless I do a second trade which I would prefer not to do
    But at least if I get screwed again a lot of others will as well.
    Not keen on Grundy as his score will plummet once Gawn returns.
    Thumbs up – Darcy
    Thumbs down – Grundy/English

  4. Anyone interested in Kozzie, kicked 2.5 on the weekend and goals were in junk time and has a really nice role.

    15

  5. Chesser to Van Roo for me.

    I’m ok keeping Constable incase he gets another game. Chesser has to go as I can’t have 3 dead rookies ( Madden ) so early.

  6. Is this the week to get Tom stewart
    Could do this with leftover cash from last week
    Liam jones and Hollands/McKenzie/baker > van rooyen (through dpp) and Stewart

  7. So my Bazlenka risk has been a huge fail. Trade for:

    TU: Tim Kelly + 105k ITB for Callaghan upgrade next week
    TD: Touk Miller + no money = no upgrade.

    What are our thoughts on Kelly’s SC potential this year?

    1. I’d wait on trading Sicily. He’s averaging 99, and that’s not terrible at this point, it’s only Rd.4

    2. You are joking surely. Arguably the best def over last few years has one bad game and you want to trade ???

  8. Think this week is just Calahan > Van Ruen

    Melbourne have an easy time coming up and he’s playing backup ruck and could hopefully be a chance at DPP in a few weeks (fingers crossed)

  9. Doch killing me – thinking of trading him to Luke Ryan or Tom Stewart. Ryan is a straight swap whereas Stewart would mean a downgrade somewhere.

    T/U – Stewart
    T/U – Ryan

    1. Is Duncan playing mid or defence? Didn’t watch the game.
      Looking for potential Doc replacements but want to see how he goes when Walsh returns this week.

  10. not too many options this week. still think Mackenzie and Phillipou have some money to make so hesitant to trade, but I think I might have to be aggressive after an average start to the season.

    TU: Mackenize/Phillipou + Jones > Van Rooyen + Dawson

    TD: Chesser > Van rooyen

  11. Early thoughts, need to chop worpel this week, no one to go down to that’s viable for fielding on ground in the midfield, looking to go up to Laird.

    Hopper > JVR (Via dpp)
    Philipou > Samson Ryan (No nank means he should put out some decent scores)
    Worpel > Laird

    Don’t love the idea of chopping hopper however I don’t have any other way at this stage to get worpel upto laird…

    Tu or Td
    Thoughts appreciated!

    17
  12. Not alot on the trade front for myself..
    If I make any moves it’ll be Bytel -> S.Ryan following the news of nank..
    Doch will probably hold another week. Just going to ride it out now and hope he can find form again. when walsh returns? lets all pray so.

    W.Day is tempting me though.

  13. Trade Docherty for Daicos? I have enough cash ITB to do so and might be my last oppurtunity to get him.

    TU or TD

  14. I’m going cogs to Stewart via DPP, will sheezel , Ziebell , gain DPP after R6 and can a player gain TPP ( ratugalea) ?

    1

    1
    1. Players cannot get TPP and as far as I’m aware, cannot get an existing position removed or changed to something else. Can only add a position to a single position player to make them a DPP player

      Hold cogs, he’ll still finish top 6 fwds

      4

      1
    2. No TPP but Ziebell and Sheezel, definitely grab DEF status next week.

      Personally, I’ll be keeping them FWD even after DPP for a while.

  15. Have 30 trades ATM, thinking of cash generation right now.

    TU: Hold
    TD: Davey, McAndrew > Van Rooyen, Samson Ryan

    1

    16
  16. TU: Setterfield/Green –> Stewart

    TD: Hold

    Also have Docherty and Rampe but I think I should hold them

    3

    12
    1. Yeah, he’s now adapted his game to Sydney’s sharp ball movement and corridor style.

      Would probably stretch to Stewart/Dawson though. Even Day at 50k less.

      3

      0
      1. My problem is I chased points and brought in Hayden Young for Stewart after rd 1, so I can’t justify going back to Stewart at the cost of 2 trades and -$40k or so. Already got Dawson. Day looking like he might be suspended so do Lloyd or Redman work as prospects?

        2

  17. Might be my first week with no trades since R1.

    All rookies still have negative/low BEs and need another week minimum. Davey might be injured (shoulder then ankle late) so could potentially move to van Rooyen, although Ben Brown to come back and didn’t light it up over the weekend. Line also through Brockman and Williams probably won’t keep DBJ out LT.

    Question becomes Neale. Paid top dollar for him and been absolutely murdered. No accumulation, no speed, no signature game altering dominance. Terrible. What’s frustrating though is he’s still flat tonning and has North this week.

    Tempted to make him my favourite non-Eagles player in Miller. Would also be considering Warner but still not back on a full CBA load and don’t love his regressive start.

    So, yeah, probably no trades. Mulling Miller.

  18. Can’t continue holding both of these guys, one of them has to go….

    T/U – Docherty

    T/D – Coniglio

    1. Why are people considering trading cogs?
      He still has the same role as he did in round 1, okay a couple of down weeks but he will be a top 6 forward come the end of season.
      Definitely hold for mine!

  19. $76k ITB
    Really need help, not sure what to do this week. Any thoughts appreciated. Cameron to Stewart the obvious play but unfortunately $2.8k short. What would you do?

    Def: Doch, Daicos, Ridley, Jones, McKenna, Ginbey ( Wilmot, Cowan)

    Mid: Neale, Bont, Green, Setterfield, Taranto, Hopper, McKenzie (Baker, Davey, Constable)

    Ruck: Darcy, RoMo ( Madden)

    Fwd: Dunkley, Rozee,Darcy Cameron, Ziebell, Sheezel, Chandler (Rat, Greene)

    Thanks

    1. With DPP coming up would probably focus on getting another mid or forward. Seems to be better value there.

      Could go Luke Jackson for ruck cover. He’s scored well the past 2 weeks and bottomed out. Looks to have a great bye.

      Maybe Kozzie to free up cash. Dylan Moore as a FWD POD

      2

      0
        1. With Doc being out probably

          Boost: Doc – Dawson (or Stuart/Sinclair)
          Cameron to Miller (or Dylan Moore or a cheaper mid POD I love getting mid premos in the 550 range)
          Jones > Ryan or Van ruen (via constable DPP)

          Defence is a little light this week but DPP will fix that next week.

          Could go to lesser premiums and save the boost but too risky for me this early

          0

          0
    2. Maybe try trade Cameron out, move taranto to fwd line and get a premo mid in (either directly or with an additional downgrade). If you’re feeling up for it, could also consider trading out Neale and/or setterfield to other premos

    3. Supercoach Mumma

      Docherty is out for 4 to 6 weeks.

      Docherty, Jones & Cameron >> Stewart, Dawson & Van Rooyen.
      Leaves you with about $42K in the bank and you have brought in 2 keepers and a rookie on the bubble (who may get DPP) who might hold his spot until Gawn comes back.

      1. Cheers Domicile- thats what I am now thinking.
        Other option instead of Stewart is Josh Kelly or could do Setterfield to Clarry. I just dont know how I feel about paying up for Clarry now

        0
  20. What to do with worpel?
    Difficult to find the funds to go up to a premo unless I trade out hopper with him.
    Can we hold him one more week at least?

  21. If Constable gets named I’m going –

    Mackenzie to JVR
    Ginbey to Constable
    Jones to Stewart

    Are these bad trades? Almost certainly yes. But now I have Stewart, one less rookie on field, and feel amazing.

  22. Need to get rid of Liam jones this week been horrible
    Have 230k in the bank and looking at getting jones to tommy stew
    Only way to do this tho is trade hollands who’s starting to reach his max price but could make another 30-40k maybe? down to van rooyen
    Problem is I can’t get Jones to van rooyen dpp doesn’t work unless constable somehow gets a gig

    TU: Looks good Jones, hollands > Stewart, Jvr
    TD: Hold off

  23. If Fahey or similar priced is named-
    TU – Doch to Dawson & Phillipou to Fahey
    TD – Try harder next time.

  24. 2k short of going
    Chesser and Ridley to daicos and van Rooyen

    So can either go
    Tu Ridley and chesser – Stewart and van rooyen

    Td Ridley and Davey jnr- daicos and van rooyen

    Currently only have chesser and Constable as non playing rookies

  25. Max Michalanney a good trade in for Liam Jones? Some good scores last 2 rounds and good BE. Or am I just chasing points?

  26. Thought I could get away with ROB over English to start the season, how was I wrong…

    Im $400 short of going Davey & ROB to English & Van Rooyen, meaning I have to shed a different rookie in Wilmot.

    Wilmot & ROB to Van Rooyen & English
    TU: Good trade
    TD: Downgrade Davey this week & wait week on English

    1. Rookies are there to be upgraded. If going early on a rookie means you get a premo in then it’s worth it (ofc this is context dependent – Wilmot is not exactly setting the world on fire so he’s almost ready to sell anyway. Probs only has 1-2 weeks in him max. Davey is in a similar boat)

      1

      3
  27. Not sure if there is a fix my team thread yet so posting here, bit confused on what to do this week as most rookies are still making $$

    Open to suggestions, except getting Stewart for Young (as Young is who I got for Stewart after round 1)

    170k ITB

    DEF: Dawson, H. Young, Ginbey, McKenna, Wilmot, Cowan (Chesser, Constable)

    MID: Oliver, Laird, Miller, Bont, Green, Setterfield, Hopper, Ashcroft (Mackenzie, Baker, Davey)

    RUC: Marshall, Grundy (Madden)

    FWD: Dunkley, Rozee, Ziebell, Sheezel, Philippou, Chandler (Ratagolea, F. Greene)

    Thanks!

    1. Sometimes the hardest thing to do is do nothing (profound I know).

      Your rookies have a bit of time before culling I reckon.

      I am also loathe to luxury trade a premo.

      2

      0
      1. Cheers Shaggi, that’s sort of what I was thinking too. I don’t see it worthwhile to cull any of my existing rookies for JVR or S. Ryan

        T. Young is the only one im considering for Chesser but even that I’m not sure on his JS. Setterfield and Hayden Young could be upgraded to either Taranto OR Daicos respectively, though even that I don’t see any urgency given Daicos is close to maxing out $$ wise

  28. Feeling a bit smug about my trades this week.

    Sheed and Callaghan for Stewart and Van Rooyen.

    I know I could not trade and points on field won’t vary too much. (Sheed + Callaghan = 150. Stewart + Bruce = 160). But it feels really good to bring in a premo.

    Hope that the cash gen of DVR versus Callaghan and Sheed is about the same also.

    I also saw the comment about DVR potentially getting ruck DPP. If that’s true and he holds his spot, then it gives me the chance to cash in Rat at R3 in a few weeks and have DVR move up to R3. I know Ryan might be a better possibility but I have missed his price rise and now don’t have enough cash for the trade.

    Yeah I know this is a bit of a bragging post (apologies for that) but you gotta take the joy in this game when you can find it. We all know it can quickly slap you down.

    1. Don’t trade Marshall this week. He plays the Pies and they don’t have a ruck.

      I don’t mind the other two trades and you save a Boost.

  30. L.Jones and Worpel definitely on the chopping block this week. Have an extra $180k in the bank

    Thinking L.Jones, downgrade to Tylar Young (not many other rookie options in DEF)
    Worpel > Libba or De Goey

    1. Rookies should dictate your structure. Downgrade to a mid or forward rookie and bring in a defensive premo

    TU : Ridley > Stewart

    Worpel > LDU
    Jones > JVR (Via DPP)

  32. who should i upgrade Wilmot to?

    Options are Rioli at 486k or
    Duncan at 485k
    Rioli has been racking them up, however twice scored under 70 and twice above 125
    Duncan first game back and has put up 116

      1. Exactly the thought process. Interested to see team sheets, but both Lynch and Nank out, with Soldo at least a week or two away, makes Samson a greater choice over JVR IMO.

  36. Doch > Day (assuming no suspension)
    Madden > Samson Ryan

    I don’t like getting rid of Madden but Chesser fills the loophole role in my SC team.

    Too early to pull the trigger on my other cows IMO.

  39. Have to trade Doch out with only $22.6k in the bank, hesitant to downgrade any rookies as all of them have plenty of cash left to make. Have DPP on every line so can swing pretty much anywhere.

    TU: Doch > Van Rooyen, use cash for massive upgrades later
    TD: Phillipou > Van Rooyen, Doch > defensive premo
    Comment: Take a flyer on Lloyd/Baker/Day (if not suspended) and hope.

    1. Will depends on if your playing for leagues or rankings.

      If playing for ranking trade for a like for like player

      If not trade to JVR and just let a few other cash cows fatten and be ready to attack in 1-2 weeks

    1. Agree Wighty.

      If Constable gets up there’s a chance you could hold Doc a week and then trade him to Forward when the Dpps happen. Cogs will be Sub $500k at this rate.

      1

      0
      1. Lots of punters praying for one more game from Constable. Can hold him as long as another warm body on the def/mid bench to cover him. Thought Cowan and Hollands might be under pressure this week with Walsh/Acres, but Doch means more of a chance for them to stay.

        Do dpp changes happen before or after R6 ??

  40. Docherty replacement in 1 trade. Don’t have anything in the bank to get someone at a higher price.

    TU: Lloyd
    TD: Redman

    1. Hey Rigor.

      Redman probably has more upside but his floor is a real worry.

      Lloyd looks to be more consistent this year, saying that I’m not sure he has a huge ceiling with guys like Blakley and Florent getting more ball. I would look at Day and take the extra cash if he is cleared to play.

  41. Trading out – Doc, Ridley and Callaghan

    TU or TD?

    1. Steve.

      Congrats on your rank, I’m not sure how many boosts you have used already ?

      I think Ryan to Ridley is a little to sideways. I’m not sure Ryan keeps up this scoring so maybe wait a week or two and try and get in a Sicily or Sinclair ( both have high BE’s ) for Ridley.

  42. Hey all, so got $559k if i trade doc which is under my wanted premos (Dawson, Stewart, Saad, Ryan, Sinclair). Also expecting Day to be suspended. Should I:

    TD: play Wilmot from my bench and wait until next week for any value

  45. thinking about doing a mega trade this week.

    Doch + Setterfield + Jones > Dawson + Oliver + Van rooyen

    it hurts not having a captain option every-week so really want Oliver in, but also very hesitant to trade setterfield out.

    TU: Go for it
    TD: keep it simple (only make 1 trade)

      1. Doc to either Stuart, Sinclair or Miller (via DPP)

        All 3 are reliable premos and have friendly byes .

        0
  46. I’m thinking Day to McGovern and then Doc to Daicos.

    McGovern will find more of the footy and take more kick outs with Doc out, he’s got Crows and then back to Marvel where he just scored 124.

    Day an easy upgrade target in 2 weeks

    T/U – Yep
    T/D – Nup

    1. Look at how many promo spots you have left to fill, then double that as most likely have to go one up one down to get premos in then add 5/6 trades for injuries and you will have how many trades you should need

  50. 31 trades itb, ranked around 30kish, been slowly coming up from initially 70k rank.

    Macrae worth trading to a performing premo (touk, Ndaicos). Thinking that even if he eventually bounces back, it may cost me overall rank, whereas could trade to a premo scoring 20ppg more, and then upgrade to macrae later in szn if he comes good

    Tu; yes, enough trades itb to make the sideways move
    Td: stay conservative.

  53. Have I missed the boat on Ziebell?

    No injury concerns but could go Worpel to Ziebella via DPP as I have 100k ITB.

  54. Docherty’s injury has made my trade decision for me.

    Looking at 2 options.

    T/U Doc to Daicos (yes I don’t have him) in one trade as I have $126k ITB

    T/D Doc to van Rooyen via DPP
    Setterfield to Oliver (started Setterfield so made nearly 100k)
    Hopper to Touk Miller

    Option one saves a boost and gets a top 6 defender.

    Option 2 gets me 2 top 10 mids but means I will have to field either Wilmot or Cowan for one week until I shift Sheezel to defence.

  55. Doch to Michalnney then Ziebell/Sheezel down back next week, plus Miller this week for any of Baker/Davey/Long, with JVR coming in as well

    T/u do it and pass on Daicos/Stewart/Sinclair
    T/d keep it simple and straight swap Doch…I have the cash

    1. If you don’t have Daicos, get Daicos.

      If you have Daicos and Dawson…

      Get Sinclair (Def) or Miller (mid)

      Your Def will be fine shifting Sheezel (and possibly Ziebell) next week as well as targeting Day at his reduced price.

  56. My midfield needs a serious injection of quality so I want to bring in Clarry. Aside from a sideways trade of some non-performing premo (I have quite a few!), the only rookie who is priced highly enough is Ashcroft.

    TU – make the trade and enjoy having a regular C/VC option
    TD – the kid still has more money to make

  57. Planning to go with:

    OUT: Docherty, L Jones & Setterfield
    IN: Dawson, Duncan & Van Rooyen

    TU: Looks good
    TD: Nope!

  58. Hey everyone I’m ranked in the top 2k am I crazy for thinking of going

    setters to Pickett as a POD & cash grab.

    His role seems so good right now & Melb team isn’t going to change his role if players return. Can he keep this level of scoring 90+ up to make it worth it??

  59. TU – Doch + Day + Mackenzie > Saad + Lloyd/Redman + JVR

    TU – Doch + Day + Ginbey > Dawson + Michalanney + JVR

    1. I’ve sent Day to my bench, where he can sit for two weeks and think about what he’s done:) I just can’t see anyone at his price with his cash gen and scoring upside and will be def/mid dpp. Just not worth a trade imho.Then again I’m not 9th either:)

    1. Nah hold. Essendon’s def has a few too many players but he’ll average 90+ and won’t lose money.

      It’s not fun watching teams get away but your better off accepting you have a solid D6 and not sideswapping premiums.

    2. I feel you, a Ridley to a Stewart looks so good right now but I feel with cows ripening up soon, the more money in the bank for that period the better. And I still have hope he can bump up his scores haha…

  60. Jones -> Michalanney
    Missed the boat?

    TU: Yes, find someone else
    TD: Nope, get him, the Jones trial is a fail.

      1. Sinclair has the rd 12 bye so his bye is also pretty good. Only 4 teams miss that week. And he’d be availiable every other bye round.

        Doesn’t have Docs ceiling but is more consistent… hmm.

  61. Why is everyone so keen on JVR? Ben Brown due to come back very soon. Surely Sampson Ryan is a better pick over JVR

    1. Why trade Chesser he’s a useful DPP loop.

      Just do 1 trade with Worpel unless your really hard up for cash

  62. Looking to trade Docherty out but don’t have the cash to upgrade have 528k
    TU: Redman
    TD: Lloyd
    Or comment any other thoughts ?

  63. What to do with Worpel?

    T/U – trade to Stewart/Day via Constable DPP.
    TD – keep and fix other issues.

  64. Who do I replace Doch with:

    TU: Stewart
    TD: Touk via DPP

    Backline already has Dawson, Daicos, Ridley. Do I keep a 4th premo Def or ugrade my Mid? Then fielding Ginbey McKenna Wilmot/Cowan

    5

  65. Have a ranking of 6.5k, so I want to see how high up I can climb.

    Docherty replacement
    T/U: Redman, will mean Mckenzie for M8.
    T/D: Warner, will mean Wilmont on field for D6.

    Ultimately, can do a double trade and get Stewart, Sincliar etc…but I think i’m leaning toward the value option before making downgrades and bringing in these premos in the next couple weeks. Day was the perfect trade from Doch but shit happens!
    What are your thoughts?

    1. Wilmont would only be D6 for 1 week.

      Would go Warner over Redman due to role certainty/floor. Lots of guys taking lots of the SuperCoach pie in Essendon’s defence.

  66. My apologies in advance if this might be a dumb question… but why is this “Trade Talk – Round 4” and not “Trade Talk – Round 5”? The trades to be made are for Rd5 and all the other forward looking regulars such as “The teams”, “Fallen Premos”, “Captaincy Options” etc all reference the next Rd not the last round.

    TU Yep, duh.
    TD shut up idiot

    1. Wait for the outcome of Day’s appeal, good chance it gets reduced to 1 week. Then I’d suggest keeping him.

  68. Is Jones to Michalanney too much of a sideways trade?

    TU: Yes. Keep faith in Jones
    TD: No, Michalanney has cash to make. Do it!

  70. Doch -> kozzie?

    400k bank for upgrades season.
    Will loop wilmot/cowan for one week til sheezel or ziebell swing back.. will grab Sinclair or sic next week after they drop $$. I already own Dawson

  71. Im considering Tim Kelly now that there’s some outs with the eagles hee going to be the main man and his scores have showed it

  72. Very dependant on Teams but the window is tight considering it potentially involves Hollands

    Doc->Stewart then a boost to…

    TU – Witts+Davey(?)->English,JVR
    TD – Setterfield+Hollands->S.Ryan,Gulden

  73. Is it worth trading Amartey out for Van rooyen?
    TU Yes Amartey will probably get dropped and Van rooyen is safe for a few more weeks
    TD No Van rooyen will likely be dropped and Amartey just put in a one off stinker?
    From memory Amartey had 19 at 1/4 time and managed another 2 points for the game!

  74. Can someone please talk me out of Kozi Pickett? 365k with a BE of -24. Has been scoring well but small sample size and typically a role like his is not consistent.

    T/U- gets a rookie off the field, worth the risk
    T/D – stick to a cheap rookie this week like JVR, samson ryan

    1. Midprice madness doesn’t make much sense mid season as it 2 trades. One to trade him in and 1 to trade him out for a real premium.

      You always want to maintain the value of a trade. So you should get 150k trading to Kozzie if he’s a rookie and you should make 150k after trading him out.

      At his price that doesn’t work so you’re picking him as an underpriced premium. A premium for 360k is great value. But there’s a reason he’s 360k it’s a very risky pick

  75. Hi, all any thoughts would be much appreciated. $61,500k ITB, 31 trades (four boosts). Traded DCAM to Grundy last week, thinking of going Doch & Finn to LDU and Michalanney

    Current team before likely trades
    DEF: Dawson, Docherty, Daicos, Ginbey, McKenna, Wilmot (Constable, Cowan)
    MID: Laird, Bont, Merrett, Green, Hopper, Callaghan, Ashcroft, Phillips (Baker, McLean, A.Davey)
    RUC: Grundy, Marshall (Madden)
    FWD: Dunkley, Rozee, Taranto, Ziebell, Sheezel, Chandler (Phillipou, Greene)

    1. The only reason to go back to 2 prem defs is I presume your waiting for Ziebel and Sheezel to get DPP.

  76. Have Doc, ridley and Flanders on my bench and 120k in the bank

    I’ve got 30 trades left. Wondering if I go Stewart with 1 trade or use 2 trades to get Dawson.

    TU: Docherty to Stewart
    TD: Docherty & Davey to Dawson & Van Rooyen

    Thanks!

  79. Davey to JVR ???? Only nets $70k or so, and I’m worried about the return of Brown to JVR cash gen.

    T/u Do the trade
    T/d Hold…it will be precious later on
