Trades 2024 Round 5 Trades

[gutsroy]

So which way are folks leaning on Grundy > Meek?
It's attractive at first blush, but it's easy to get the beer goggles on and convince yourself that solid 4 is an 8 when your current companion has a man bun, crooked teeth and an inability to put BJ Williams away ffs.

Are we jumping on a treadmill and chewing up 13,618 trades in the ruck again or is Meek the one?

Don't have Livingston,.so this Jordon / R3 option doesn't work for me.

Those who saw Green's projected score last week and were tempted to whack the (c) on him might want to take a look at Meek's projected score this week.

hey guy, what trades should i make? cheers

35000 (me too) have traded in Clohesy after 1 game.

Nothing surer than him getting injured in the first quarter on 7, never to be seen again and left to rot on our benches.

Ok fair enough. So its based on nothing more than whoever gives u enough cash for Gawn.
I thought i must be missing something.
Massimo can still deliver 350-375K i reckon. Williams though will probably be 90% dead well before 325K.
I'm giving Massimo a bit of air and hope for the TOG. Slow first half but was looking pretty good for a 75-80 before Bitchell did the dirty on us in the last. I doubt many would be flogging him this week if he simply got an extra 10-12 minutes. With standard TOG he's a 75 avg. His role isnt too bad for scoring. Each to their own tho.

End of the day, one great score (120-odd), one acceptable (80-odd), two shithouse scores is the tale of the tape
Getting a bit of TOG after the manic cuddle-fest at the start of the quarter got them going would have been nice, but he was invisible prior.
If my aunty had a set of balls, she'd be my uncle etc.
Compare him or Zilliams to Dempsey punching out better scores on less coin in a lower scoring line, and they end up looking prize turkeys, let's not sugarcoat it.
Bigger problems to deal with the only thing that's saved them both, realistically.

Darcy Moore told me that Brodie is actually excellent at putting BJs away

Conversely he's shown he can post a big score which in a best 18 could be very useful.

If sick of looking at him, i'd much rather go up than down with the manbun. English/Gawn or noone for me. Dont want to be fk arsing around with R2 again later.
People are desperate for cash though. Its poverty street out there.

Really torn this week.

Have a number of different thoughts.

Players I want are Flanders and Steele.

Only have $5.5k in the bank

Option One
Mass > Clohesy
Grundy > Meek
McKercher > Steele

Option Two

Mass > Clohesy
Grundy > Meek
Cadman > Flanders

I am more than happy to ride the Meek train as I did a similar thing with Briggs last year.

Who would you prioritise out of Steele or Flanders?

Flanders mate your forwards need work your mids are good.

Let's not waste our time a-feudin' and a-fussin', when there is genuine SC gold to be panned for in them thar hills.

Jack Lukosious - speak to me, Scoopsmorrow.
Any way he maintains that role for the season?

[True Blue Saint]

428k in the bank.

Can do Grundy -> English and Jordon -> Flanders.

Build up the bank again with Clohesy & Graham likely ins next week.

What are you waiting for?

 

[Maybe Tomorrow]

Rash I'll post here to save the mod's moving our posts.

I'm undecided on trades, it's either

Jordon/Howes/Grundy to Martin/Clohesy/Marshall
or
Jordon/Howes/Clark to Martin/Clohesy/Meek

How about yourself?

I started with Gawn, Grundy, and Livingston > Jackson.

I feel no need to disrupt this structure.

Which means obviously that Meek will be everyone's R1 in a month

Luko wants to be a forward, but is softer than Luke Darcy's chol when he goes at Kane Cornes.
Dimma not keen on flaccid forwards when hardnut's like Jeddy are around.
Luko might have to do as he's far king told is Scoopsmorrows read on the situation.

Dont be such a negative nelly

You got him for the price of a #1 or #2 draft pick. i.e. Rook priced.

Has scored
122, 87, 68, 63

That aint crap. Plus he's in a crap mob with a dunce coach that wont keep him on the ground. Adjusted for TOG its kind of alright.

By contrast your boy Dempsey cant even score a single ton in a team going nicely .

Harley Reid
78, 63, 54, and finally a 91. Cost the same as my man Massimo. Where's the mass exodus on him ?

I reckon its based purely on Massimo having a tad more cash up his sleeve and no other reason. Its all about the cash baby
People are going...if i sell Howes i can grab Nic Martin...but hang on, if i sell Massimo i can grab Rowell. Thats all it is.

Jhye Clark a big chance to be rested this week according to Geelong board.

Don't think it changes much in terms of trades, just a bit annoying that it slows down what money is left to be made.

 

[Lord De Goey]

This year Gawn, Bont and Heeney?

I get that its the three you dont have but you must have been living under a rock if you didnt know Gawn and Bont got that CD love.

 

[Veer Right]

hey guy, what trades should i make? cheers

Mass > Clohesy
Grundy > English

 

[SELFCONFESDAFLNERD]

If i go to Comben and pass on Meek i can keep all my rookies that are making cash and trade Sexton instead.

Grundy, Howes & Sexton > Rozee, Comben & Clohesy

Next round Massimo > W.Graham, Cadman > Rookie & McKercher > Heeney

I mean it could be the trend Bollox.

And the fact that his role seems to have changed from a halfback job where he scores well to a wing where he doesn't.

I'm holding, for now, because I have other plans.

But it would be a surprise/relief if he racked up more than say, 23 possessions next week
