Game Day 2024 Round One Discussion

[kaiserchief13]

I would love some advice.

Yesterday, I cut Lazarro (bench rookie) to Mannagh so I had cash to go Gibcus to D’Ambrosio. Which I am happy with.

Now I’m considering trading Butters to Wines, so I can free up the cash to go Fisher to Flanders.
Thoughts?

After next week GC are on a bye, not sure if that will impact. Annoying that the GC players prices will change the week before their bye

Yeh, a bit annoying, but Flanders will be F1 for the season at this rate. Wines will be an M8 type, that I’ll eventually upgrade. But yeh, muddies the waters slightly

So you get them in cheap but then they have the BYE, Jesus H Christ what a fa*ken mess.

3 hours to decide if I keep English or go down to Gawn and bank the coin. I started him last year and it put me in a position where I didn't move out of the top ~500 all year until I ran out of trades right at the end to slide to ~1.2k.

My wise mind says downgrade, my emotional mind says stick with my bean pole. Oh how I have missed these Sunday morning think sessions

 

[Seymour Skinner]

I have both buy my team's still on track for an 1800.

Gibcus + Watson on the field hurts. With Sicily stinking it up yesterday :/

 

[Hawk88]

My team officially sucks

When does 2025 SC open?

 

[Scythe94]

Had a very rough day with anti-PODs yesterday (no Sheezel, Green or Flanders).

Fingers crossed Port flat-track bully the hell out of West Coast today and my alternatives (Houston, Rozee, Wines) pick up the slack.

 

[JY5165]

is it wrong to keep martin and fisher in the team considering theyll both probably get def dpp. also they have the roles to score big just need efficiency

 

[JY5165]

thinking of going aggressive and bringing in cadman and t berry for their price rises(with 40 trades i think its ok to try get money in early). want to generate early cash to potentially upgrade a 300k-500k player into a premium(sth like grundy to marshall)

No Rowell either?

 

[Dunna Heartknee]

You got the wrong Berry brother.

It's better then the wrong Daicos brother.

 

[Snake Charmer]

At 1800 atm and projected for 2200.. wtf is happening. Round 1 going Ok lol

Worth downgrading Serong > Wines today to bank some cash for the inevitable Fisher > Flanders trade?

Yeah but you picked Fisher ya spud

Worth downgrading Serong > Wines today to bank some cash for the inevitable Fisher > Flanders trade?

I've done same same but different - downgraded Butters to Wines* (do Port give Butters limited minutes coming off that ankle?) to free up a fair bit of cash for Gibcus/Lazz to Mass/Dempsey (the latter should already be in my team FFS).

* Had Rozee for a long time but if Wines is back in the guts where he does his best work does it mean Rozee plays more forward minutes?

EDIT: Can't bring myself to do it.

 

[Loose at HB]

1116/12 + C

Would have been a lot happier if I didn’t get too clever for myself and start Clark ahead of Wilson, thinking an outside HF/winger wouldn’t do well at KP and an inside mid would. Instead this kent goes at 1 point per possession

Martin and Fisher can GAGF, pair of frauds.
Only real success so far is the F1-3 combo of Flanders/Heeney/Rankine getting 361 between them.

Bont, Sanders, Coffield, Gawn, Howes
Rozee, Houston, Reid
Serong, Young

Will be very much deathriding Fyfe, sorry kents
