Round 12 Trades - The Byes Begin

[DaveyBoy123]

Looked at rd-12 two days ago and was spewing that I had all 8 DEFs probably playing. What a waste of 2 scores!

Now, it could potentially be 5 due to Zilliams, Whitfield & Hore. Shirley at least 1 of them plays. (I guess Clark & Answerth aren't 100% certainties either, although they did ok today).

Either way, I need 6 DEFs playing, or else I somehow don't field 18 in the easiest bye round!

 

[gutsroy]

Have gone from felding a strong side and potentially even trading in a rd 12 premo on the bye to maybe having donuts in what is a lay down misere of a bye round.
Hopefully 2 rookies in, but not sure who will present there.
Not sure which injured blokes will miss (Sloane, Crouch, Whitfield, Williams, Greene, Hore, Moore plus whoever dies tomorrow all in some doubt, I guess).

 

[Benno_900]

Yep, I am suddenly relying on Williams and Whitfield to play just to field 18.

Which includes ****ing Burgess.

 

[gutsroy]

Wonder if Coniglio might be worth it as a short term rental - worst case.
Stands to make 80- odd k in the two weeks before his bye even with a couple of 95's

You'd want to see one more game from him I reckon before taking the plunge.

I was thinking that he could make a good cheap M8 as it looks like he is over his injuries now.

Nah I disagree. It’s now or never.

What makes you say that?

Tbh I'm thinking the ship has maybe sailed a bit; would have been great as a cheap M8 with 105 potential for 450-460, not as in love with paying 500-510.
Shame he had to go so huge and Sloane/Crouch both shed cash in their injury games.

I'm pretty keen on Sloane if he gets cheap enough.

Value plus. He has one of the prime plots in my cemetary as it stands. Here's the initial injury assessment:

 

[Blackhawk42]

Gees I don't bloody know.
Should field a full team I think. Need to generate some cash somewhere though. Can't see myself having a full team of premiums come the end of the byes which is always the goal.
16 trades left is at least a little bonus.

 

[Kenjo]

say

Because his price about to sky-rocket. I’ve owned him since rd 1, and while the finger/corky injury has been frustrating, that’s the only thing that’s held him back - not form. Based on yesterday’s game he looks to be over it and should average 110 from here on out (unless he gets injured again of course))

Perfect candidate to complete your midfield in round 16

 

[evo]

I'm going to jump on the Conigs train. Chasing scores is a winning strategy. Amirite?

It’s never failed before

 

[Better Loosen Up]

So.... i have Whitfield, Sloane, Hore and Rocky.

Kill me!

 

[SavDog23]

Probably some combination Hore, Duursma, Parker to Luke Ryan and a rookie.
Honestly have NFI and will wait until tomorrow.

 

[Nelso]

Sit tight this week and wait for the teams to be announced.

So many fringe players could get dropped (Setterfield, Burgo, Petruccelle)

Would be shattering to miss out on Burgo's 30pts.

lol. I'm praying this Gardner is a gun. Sick of the sight of baby John stinking up my bench.

 

[Jiska]

Anyone trading this week may as well just quit for the year. Even Judd_Magic wouldn’t be ballsy enough to trade this week.

I refuse to give in to the Byes '3-trade' propaganda.
**** the byes.

It’s dumb having three trade in each Bye round. Should have 3 trades in the second and third Bye rounds and then the round after that.

No-one in their right mind is using nine trades in the way they’re proposing you should use them. **** making a trade to cover for one week and then trading that played out again.

Value plus. He has one of the prime plots in my cemetary as it stands. Here's the initial injury assessment:

What sort of a post is that! Click bait? FFS

"Early in the second quarter, Rory spread hard from a stoppage lunging to tackle James Harmes. He sustained a stretch mechanism-based strain to the hamstring.
It assessed clinically as low grade. He will undergo scans and reassessment Monday."

 

[Jiska]

Hatley has already had 12 touches 4 tackles and a goal 2 minutes into the second q in the NEAFL...

Sounds like a shit player to me Leon.

This is why you haven’t won a flag despite being gifted 5931872638 first round draft picks and concessions, $6253838 in AFL “marketing” deals for players outside the salary cap and $29639779752 in AFL club concessions.

IT’S BECAUSE YOU ARE A ****ING SHIT COACH. ****ING RETIRE CAMPAIGNER.

 

[Seymour Skinner]

Hopefully Sloane only misses a week. I'll hold him and just pretend that he got tagged by DeBoer and his score didn't make my top 18...

 

[Knighta21]

Just need warm bodies. Think I have 18 if all my rookies play. Will trade if need to get anyone in

 

[stevebbb]

Will seriously consider BScott to DClarke as a late season rookie correction trade and to pocket a very handy $25k. Doing OK for trades and since I didn't trade in round 2 and 4, I can justify it as a rookie correction. With Essendon's injuries, his VFL performances and his game today, he'll definitely be sticking around.

Gives me an extra player in round 13 and 14
The $25k will allow me to go Hore to Sicily and Stack to RGray

Food for thought anyway...
