Trades 2024 Round 13 Trades

[JuddgementDay]

Scythe94 - can you give me your thoughts on Gulden.
I'm keen to get on this train, especially for a RD14 bye player - but, I can't make it work

I'm just waiting on Dawson's injury news now

 

[goondog]

Sacrifice a crook Dawson (who I picked up for ~$500k) for 3 keepers?

Leaves me with only Moyle onfield, who I'll swap for English/Marshall in R16.

 

[Wellsy35]

Yeah for sure, and it's definitely situational.

For me, going Greene over Moore likely allows me to get Luke Ryan and Zorko with my last two upgrades, whereas I'd have to sacrifice one if I went Moore (plus I'd only be able to afford Moore this week if I sacrificed Sexton a week early instead of Will Graham, which isn't appealing at all).

So the equation for me becomes either:
a. Greene, Ryan and Zorko
b. Moore, Clark (or similar) and Zorko
c. Moore, Ryan and Curnow (or similar)

Think 'a' is comfortably the best of those three, even though I detest Zorko.

Number 1 rule, always look for value.

Exhibit A:



Exhibit B:



It's why I think the $ per point feature is massively underutilised when looking at premos.

Moore (left) vs. Greene (right) currently:



Greene is still the better value option when he's averaging 15 points below his great season last year and with plenty of upside.

I think he's certainly good value, but I wouldn't be moving heaven and earth to get him. Heeney and Warner are clearly 1a and 1b this year in the middle for the Swans.

Gulden's tonned in less than half of his games this year (5/11), and while his stats and CBAs are very similar to last year, two notable differences are that his tackle numbers and contested possessions are down a decent amount, which is indicative of a diminished responsibility in stoppages around the ground with the emergence of Heeney.

I'd say that for people with an incomplete midfield who are operating on a budget, he makes sense, but I likely wouldn't be sideways trading to him, personally. Think 105 is about the mark for him this year, just not enough contested ball to raise that ceiling too much higher.

his tog is also a lot higher than it was last year and is closing in on 100% but that hasnt really correlated to higher scoring which is odd

 

[Quazza]

think i've settled on this, which also leaves 260k in the bank for next week (Possibly Oliver > Ryan)

Take a quick Look at Gulden’s clanger count and disposal efficiency and that tells a pretty honest tale of his year. 57% kicking efficiency and 5 clangers per game - a surprising stat for a guy who I’d consider an elite kick.

One game he had 6 frees against - don’t expect that to be the norm.

I think he can go 115 on the way home interestingly.

 

[Silky23]

Greene and Gulden this week.
Ryan next week.
Zorko the week after when the 175 breakeven rolls out of his average.

Ryan Daicos Houston Young Sinclair Stewart
Bont Butters Rowell Zerrett Gulden Dunkley Oliver Green
Gawn English
Heeney Zorko Flanders Fisher Sexton Fyfe

And will make sure I get F7 to Jackson to push Fyfe to F7/M9 to finish the team - should have 4 trades remaining.

 

[DT_35]

Are many ppl holding H.Reid?

If I go Clohesy > Dawson (north) this week which leaves 246k ITB to turn Reid > L.Ryan next week.

*Already have Fisher

Thoughts?

Reid done his dash - only costs $35k to get in Fisher who looks like Norf seagull to finish the year.

 

[vic_LION]

Thinking now of trading hard this week.

Out: J.Dawson, J.Sweet, D.Wilson and S.Darcy

In: C.Warner, D.Moore, T.Greene and W.Dawson

Leaves me with only one more upgrade to make at D6, and 80k itb

Might back out on trading out Dawson later in the week and save my last boost, not sure yet

True to an extent, but his DE% and clangers are very similar to last year, as are his frees against.

The DE% isn't an indicator of him being a poor kick, more that he just takes on aggressive options and they don't always work out. I think the drop off in his scoring is more role/responsibility based than anything, so I'd be surprised if it changes too much in the second half of the year.

 

[DT_35]

Would definitely trade him to fisher this week but have had fisher for a few weeks already

 

[JuddgementDay]

NMartin was shaky for me, but he now stays in my team with Redman’s injury

I must be close to finishing my team, as I’m now considering “luxury” trades

 

[No eye deer]

Greene and Gulden this week.
Ryan next week.
Zorko the week after when the 175 breakeven rolls out of his average.

Ryan Daicos Houston Young Sinclair Stewart
Bont Butters Rowell Zerrett Gulden Dunkley Oliver Green
Gawn English
Heeney Zorko Flanders Fisher Sexton Fyfe

Just FYI, Zorko’s BE is 125, not 175

 

[Silky23]

Just FYI, Zorko’s BE is 125, not 175

With the 66 in his rolling average, his breakeven is 125 but with a score of 106, projected breakeven the week after is about 175.

Two low tons and he’ll be $550k in 2 weeks.

 

[Maybe Tomorrow]

With the 66 in his rolling average, his breakeven is 125 but with a score of 106, projected breakeven the week after is about 175.

Definitely makes sense to wait. Two more weeks for his calves to get tight too.

 

[54Dogs]

With the 66 in his rolling average, his breakeven is 125 but with a score of 106, projected breakeven the week after is about 175.

Two low tons and he’ll be $550k in 2 weeks.

Problem is next week he plays the Saints, 175 def achievable

Yeah, good point.
I’ve decided to grab Greene this week instead.
Still scared of Zorko breaking.

 

[Hava Alle]

Hopefully Windhager tags him.

 

[kool kangas]

Seems a waste trading Jackson. Doubt there are six forwards who are definitely better.

All my trades will be sideway trades as l wanted the money for Xerri...+ Jackson had a bye this week . All my lines are now fully covered with 16 premiums + Comben , Reid, Wilson, Xerri and 2 forward rookies

View attachment 2011083

No Luke Ryan
No Jordan Clarke
Oliver and Green are fat rangas, on the lower level
Steele questionable
No English
Greene will have to become Rankine
Ridley an injury plagued flakey scorer like LDU


Otherwise, team is complete!

Reverses Zorko Trade

What happened to that completed team thread, I'm ready to go.

Clarry pig, dawspud, and sexytonne are fine

 

[Judd_Magic]

Prior to this week Moore posted 3 sub-80 scores in a row.

Don't stress, forcing him in this week is classic points chasing.

There were factors for that though like weather conditions and the blood rule, etc.
