Round 17 Trades

[Hate]

Daw > Hall (to free some cash up)
Caf > N. Riewoldt


or

Wines > Hrovat
Franklin > SJ

or

Daw > Hall
Montagna > SJ

 

[W.C. Fry]

My team is complete really. My reserves this week - McKenzie, Mitchell, Nicholls and Staker averaged 96 points.

But I do think it is time for Buddy to go. Can't even be trusted as a forward emergency. Don't worry Buddy, Stakers got it.

Buddy > Lee

Then its just tweaking the guns on the ground. Coming up against Crowley this week? I'll move you on for someone playing Melbourne. Unless of course SJ gets rubbed out. Then its him for anyone. Riewoldt maybe. Also will think about Winderlich who is looking great in recent weeks and is playing GWS this round.

 

[ashley12]

TBC will gun it vs GWS next round. Also against Eagles, Pies, Blues & Kangaroos. Maybe even Tigers also. Go for it if you can afford it. Do you have Nicholls?

The same Bellchambers that had 62 against GWS earlier this season, when he wasn't dealing with having Ryder in the side?

Most of those teams you listed have some of the better rucks in the competition, the likes of Cox, NicNat, Goldy and to a lesser extent Kruezer and Maric.

As well as that, here are some of the scores of rucks who have played against GWS this season (top 10 by average have excluded those who either didn't play vs GWS or their team hasn't played against GWS

Cox (Round 9): 96
Roughead (Round 8): 118
Minson (Round 15): 74
Goldstein (Round 14): 83
Kreuzer (Round 10): 119
McEvoy (Round 3): 97
NicNat (Round 9): 105
Bellchambers (Round 6): 62
Pyke (Round 1): 73
Pyke (Round 16): 89

Those ruckmen have a combined average of 91.5, which is only a point better then all of Roughead, Minson and Cox

As well as that Bellchambers has minor JS problems, shares the workload with Ryder, and there is always the possibility that they choose to get games into Daniher compared to BC.

The low BE is great and all, but playing Nicholls and getting value elsewhere is a far better option then
a short-term Bellchambers solution.

 

[TheGhostOfJohnBelushi]

I'm not really enamoured by any downgrades at this point... am I crazy for going:

Buddy > N.Riewoldt or Roughead
Cotchin > D.Martin

My thinking is mainly that Spuddy is less reliable to me than Macaffer, Gray or Mayes. Gray and Mayes have BEs they should be making (unless their coaches sub them, but unlikely now that Gray has some match fitness, but Crazy Vossy could do anything with his players). Macaffer is just consistent and just handy to be on the bench for at least 60 if someone is a late withdrawal. So I'm not playing Spuddy on his form, even though there is potential for him to go bang.

So Riewoldt or Roughead come in. Roughead does give me flexibility, though, as I can swap him into the ruck for Cox.

And whilst Cotchin is lifting his game, it'd be handy to get a fwd-mid link into my mids (finally). I have a heap of forwards with DPP (SJ, Bartel, Lewis, Gray, Mayes) so that opens up some flexibility.

Right now, I have Vlastuin/Goodes as my D6. I could downgrade one and upgrade the other to Hibberd or Enright, but thinking I'll leave it till next week or give Vlastuin some time to up his dollars again.

My mids have Titchell as M8, but he's playing like a premium so he can stay and be my last upgrade when he's ripened.

My forwards need strengthening, given I played both Macaffer and Gray this weekend. Just screaming out for another premium there.

 

[ashley12]

I like your trades, but wouldn't be to worried about the FOR/RUCK link unless you already have someone like a McBean or Rowe in the team, since straight swapping Cox and Roughead isnt worth a lot since they are both top 22 players, and in todays modern trade game having two trades a week mean injuries will likely be dealt with swiftly in any case.

 

[TheGhostOfJohnBelushi]

Cheers man. Also noticing Richmond have Fremantle next up, which means Crowley is likely to lock down on Cotchin.

 

[LanLion]

Buddy OUT. That is all.

Buddy > Osborn. Trusting Nicholls as my R2, Roughead back into Fwds.
Docherty > Boak/Cornes

Boak or Cornes? Both identical price, but I worry that with Port trying to defend 8th spot, the 1st move they will make in the run home is to make Cornes tagger. However Cornes of course still has the higher average, and higher ceiling.

 

[doona]

OUT Macaffer ($341,100) IN Riewoldt ($464,100)
OUT Clarke ($360,900) IN Hall ($123,600)

Maybe change Hall depending on another rookie ruck plaing. Pretty much finishes off my team

 

[ashley12]

Have changed my mind again

Franklin -> 89k ruck
Macaffer - > Pendlebury (cant afford to not have him with GC and GWS coming up, I dont think he is the rest type)

This means I have a choice between Nicholls and my genuine F7 in later weeks. Currently its Staker but as of next week will likely be a Rockliff/JJK/Lewis type.

 

[Slipps]

Cheers man. Also noticing Richmond have Fremantle next up, which means Crowley is likely to lock down on Cotchin.

crowley to deledio everyday of the week

 

[Suma Magic]

Couldn't find something that would satisfy my desire to swap Harbrow to a premium mid, and trade Naitanui to a better ruck. So decided to play Nicholls for this week in order to boost my midfield.

Went
Naitanui -> M. Murphy (good option at M9 for that price)
Harbrow -) Jelwood (hopefully a decent draw and some good form will see him average 105 from here)

Geez ur team must be good if you're trading Harbrow, whose ur other backs?

A back averaging 85 and a last 5 ave of 93 is keeper in my side (of course, my side is rubbish)

I just posted it in the 'post your team' thread. It's not that good, just have one too many backs at the moment. My problems lie elsewhere (like Nicholls at R2 and lack of super premiums like O'Keefe/Stanton/Griffen).

Backs are:
Goddard Heppell Malceski Hanely Gibbs Ibbotson
Goodes Clisby

 

[Clint Beastwood]

This week I've gone Terlich > Grimes and Luey > Minson, which completes my backs and rucks nicely, assuming Grimes scores like he did last year. Next week I'll be completing the mids, and then I'll be done Barring injuries and suspensions (Steven Johnson I'm looking at you).

 

[gazzathegreat]

Are people terfing Terlich? One bad game in some of the worst conditions I've seen, I think I'll be holding him to see if he can bounce back.

yeah but i am upgrading him to Heppell, and its either Terlich or Goodes who gets the upgrade, and Goodes as a lower BE by 80. My seconds trade im thinking Cox --> Riewoldt. Have been wanting to get the Volt in since about round 5. Ive already got Roughead and Nichols in the ruck, so Volt gives me a better average over Cox.

 

[JDWCE]

I'm not sure what to do this week

I have a full 22 of premo's so I just need to get the in form guys I guess

Here is my team

D: hep, god, ibbo, Gibbs, malceski, shaw (clisby, thurlow)

M: swan, pendle, gab, Stanton, priddis, Barlow, okeefe, titchell. (Cotchin, Neade)

R: cox, kreuz (nichol, Naismith)

F: roo, SJ, Martin, rocky, stokes, Kennedy (Dwyer, staker)

Current thinking is getting rid of stokes to cloke as I like his upcoming run and stokes is under an injury cloud. Plus his last game he was back in his usual forward role from last year

Second trade completely unsure of.

Thinking maybe get Griffen. But get rid of who? Priddis, cotchin? Money no concern

Any thoughts?

Cheers

 

[CaptScott]

Anybody else worried about Goddard being rested this week?

Might be force to spend cash to upgrade Clisby/Thurlow to get decent coverage.

Bombers aren't going to drop him to the reserves when he is in form, out of contract at the end of the season when they are trying to get him to sign a new deal. Now that would just be silly.

Cox, Goldstein are in horrible form. Nic Nat is as flat as anything at the moment and will no doubt be rested this week to recharge his batteries leading up to the final rounds of the season.

Pyke? Serious? McEvoy would rather abuse his own players than to worry about his game play this season. Only Roughead and Minson I agree with.

TBC will get 95+ this week coming, that I can assure you. If he can get 105 vs Doggies, surely he'll get more than that vs a much worse GWS who probably wont win a game this season.

Wines > Hrovat

Daw > Hall
Montagna > SJ

SJ might get suspended. So that would indeed bugger you around a fair bit.

 

[The Jet]

View attachment 23699

Alot of iffy selections there with plenty in poor form.

Cox, Bartel, Stevie J (may get suspended), Grimes concussed and Gibbs 2 very poor games in a row.

 

[FlowersByIrene]

Youre soooo knowledgeable about dt jet please tell me more about how I should drop bartel and sj...

 

[Citizen Erazed]

Neade - Tom Lee
Scotland - Heath Shaw

I have been unable to get rid of those two until now.

 

[Korupt]

Thinking about doing;
Hartless - Grimes
A. Swallow - Stanton

Wasted trades? What do you guys think?

 

[oddsok]

Suspensions throw a spanner into the works once again.

SJ>ROK
Hartlett>Enright

Sigh.
