Trades Round 18 Trades

Oh well then.
Gotta be Sicily -> Lloyd then
Walters and De Goey have the chance to prove themselves one more week.

Walters' form after the bye has been so bad. He must be injured.

I'm going to bench Sicdawg for a week I think. I need to get Crisp out before he loses even more cash and Gray obviously has to go.

Crisp -> Hurley
Gray -> Heeney

Fielding O'Riordan as well. Lets hope he can feast on GC with Parker

Parker usually does well against bad teams but he is really something else this year. I have to give him one more chance though, would kill my motivation if I see him go 120+ when I trade him out. I am also really thinking about fielding COR as Sic replacement for a week, he should be really good

NicNat > Lycett
Sicdawg > Lloyd
Still allows me to go DooDoo > Macrae next week, and see how Lycett goes as No.1 ruck
Wonder how many out there have Sic, Nat, JPK, Gray, Sidebum, Sier in their squads.......spare a thought

 

[bl4ke]

will he become a regular in the swans outfit? I'm thinking Alex Morgan instead

Can't see him getting dropped after that debut and whilst McVeigh is out with a broken collarbone. I already have him tho so I can get both he and Morgan

 

[Spider Klein]

Need to trade Blakely and Natanui (just back from holidays didn't even know Blakely was out)

1) Grundy and Simpson/Hurn (downgrade upgrade next week to get Macrae will miss Danger)

2) S. Martin and Lloyd (downgrade upgrade next week to get Macrae will miss Danger)

3) S. Martin and Hurn (cash saving option which would be tight turning Neale and Rocky into Macrae and Danger next week.)

Can't afford Grundy and Lloyd this week.

My trades will be one of those 3. Any thoughts on what others think is the right move would be helpful.

 

[Shadow89]

190k in the bank, initially plans are to just pull the trigger on Grundy now and down grade Ryan for Freeman, and bloody hold Sicily til next week.. hopefully JPK pulls through. Any other ideas?

JPK looked really bad last week. I could see him missing at least a few games with his back issue

 

[Shadow89]

Jesus what a round of carnage -

Sier, Sidebottom, JPK, Nic Nat, Ryder, Gray, Viney and now Sicily! Absolute craziness. If it wasn't before this round, it is now. This is definitely the most injury affected season in the history of the AFL

 

[TedDougChris]

Seriously looking at Lynch and C’OR in this week, generate some cash, get some defensive coverage and sort shit out next week...

I'm just going to have to ride him I feel, turn him in Macrae next week, will happily place Spargo there

And get Simmo

I don't have a choice because of Sicdawg and Gray but if I did I am not sure I'd keep Parker even with the GC matchup. My only hope is that if JPK misses he will need more mid time. At least if he stands near the ruck contest he might actually get a touch or tackle.

If it goes to plan, he is gone for Macrae next week.

Losing Sic really hurts. I can go Sicily down to O'Riordan to generate cash, then it's a matter of going:
- Fritsch > Laird via DPP (need to field Ronke)
- Andrew Brayshaw > Laird via DPP (gives me a relatively complete midfield, but keeps Fritsch burning cash).
- Fritsch > Dangerfield

Not convinced that Danger is worth chasing this week, but he has a nice BE.

Had Danger in as part of my plans, but will need to shift. I think I can get Danger and Lloyd in next week, hopefully Fritsch doesn’t burn too much value this week....

 

[Possum Vomit]

Genuinely may hold JPK if he misses and play Giro in his place. Need to move Sic on and Hibberd must go, he’s scoring worse than rookies on my bench.

What even happened to Sier? Just a corkie wasn't it?

 

[SM]

So with Sicily basically out for the season, that stitches up one trade, but then I'm at a loss what to do.

Sicily > Whitfield locked in, no issues there.

Then I want to ditch Trac as he seems the biggest liability up forward (Spargo has money to make), and Sidey might be ok injury wise.

Problem is I need to free up a bit of cash to get Sic up to Whitfield, which means I can't also upgrade Trac. Means I have to try and get O'Riordan in somehow, which I can do by shifting Danger forward and Brayshaw into midfield, bringing O'Riordan in and giving me a war chest.

Feels a bit odd weakening my team though? Back to having a rookie on ground. Can't figure out another way to do it though, and I guess next week I'll have to take someone like Joel Smith out, shift Brayshaw back, free up some more cash from Spargo and get a FWD rookie and then get Macrae..

Hopefully the maths works.

With Narkle underwhelming a bit I'll throw him forward, Ahern EMG in midfield in case Sidey doesn't play, and Spargo EMG up forward.

Our injury report states Sier is expected to be passed fit.

No issues with Sidey then?

 

[SM]

If Spargo goes up a bit and Macrae down a bit think I can do Smith > Macrae via Brayshaw back in defence; Spargo > FWD rookie with some room to spare. Phew.

 

[bl4ke]

No issues with Sidey then?

No mention of him in the report

 

[Corby_4]

Haven't seen a single post about it on the pies team changes thread.

 

[YippeeYiYeo]

Sicily injury means Parker survives, AGAIN.

Treloar, Macrae, Laird, and now Sicily all have delayed my boot of Parker ffs.

 

[yogibbear]

This season is a joke. Every week 2 premos die. HTF am i meant to finish the team when Sicily and Nicnat get fantasy season ending injuries in the same week. ****ing joke. Rookie depth is very very weak for next few weeks so I actually CAN'T trade both Sicily and Nicnat sideways. One of them either stays for a week or has to go to Riordan. Disgusting. 2018 is the worst year ever for fantasy.
