Round 21 (finals week 1) trades

[Zakk Wylde]

Rolling with the in form Zac Clarke this week... Unique and has had an awesome month. Just need to get one more big one out of him.

 

[Goosecat]

if leuenburger/mumford is too much for you too, then id suggest going with either jolly or naitanui, jolly imo

I'm not so sure about Leuenburger. Depends on trades and coverage I suppose but after this week he comes up against Jolly, Cox and Mumford for the next three. Reckon his scores might take a nosedive.

 

[joeyavalanche]

have to get rid of boomer harvey this week.

stevie j?
cloke?
chapman or pav?

EDIT: regardless of the geelong bye as i have no other geelong players and my upcoming opponents have lots

then id definitly go with jolly

have to get rid of boomer harvey this week.

stevie j?
cloke?
chapman or pav?

cloke or pav for sure, probably cloke as dawes is still out and he is collingwoods best forward by a long shot

 

[inside_player]

I am going to eat a 0 in the ruck this week...in the top 4 and my opponent has cox sandi smith and mcauley Lobbe will do me proud!

If you have a second chance why not risk it? Keep ur trade for the last 2/3 rounds and make yourself much more dangerous.

Thanks fair the anti Stevie j advice I see ur point, over priced missing a game and pLaying collingwood. Also when they last played Adelaide he scored 61 I think.

 

[Bluey_McKenna]

In: Mitchell, McEvoy
Out: Krak, Griffin

3 trades remaining

 

[Sunny_]

If you can get through this week without Zac Smith (assuming you already have him), I wouldn't trade him away.

If he IS rested this week against the Lions, he'll come back fit and firing against Adelaide and Melbourne.

Against Melbourne in his 3rd game he scored 63. Against Adelaide he scored a huge 106. So probably some value in keeping him if you can.

Hard to say how he'll go against the Hawks as he hasn't played them before.

Also, if you downgrade to Jeremy Taylor, be warned, he won't be playing the rest of the season due to an injury. So you won't be able to play him for the rest of the year.

 

[Foxx]

Gibbs Goddard Deledio Fisher Broughton Adcock Heppell (H Shaw Puopolo Jacobs)

Pendlebury Swan Boyd Bartel Hodge Montagna (mzungu Smith Hibberd)

Cox Smith (Lobbe J Tippett)

Goodes Pav Chapman Okeefe Franklin Riewoldt Petrie (Didak Howe Richardson)

5 trades 12k.

Usually id have Petrie in the ruck and Didak on field but think I need another ruck and leave Petrie fwd and Didak on the bench.
Thinking Shaw -> Duffield/johncock and Smith -> Mumford/McEvoy
What would you do next?

 

[Sunny_]

Just read that Zac Smith may not be rested after all. Apparently ran out the Wednesday session well, so he's in the mix. Needs to complete the Friday session and he'll be in line for selection.

 

[Jezza Jenkins]

A Swallow to Daisy, Thompson or Priddis?

 

[SloppyJoe]

All other things being equal:

Adcock or Birchall?

Just looking at this week - who will score more?

Adcock got about a 90 I think last time he played the Suns? Birchall got a 91 he played Port.

Flip a coin?

 

[Coastal_Pie]

I have $238 000 and have two options.

Zsmith ----------> McEvoy
Mzungu ---------> Boyd

or

Zsmith ----------> Mumford or Leuenbuger
Mzungu ---------> Mitchell

Opponent has Mitchell

This would compete my mids got smith and didak for cover

 

[joeyavalanche]

stevie j?
cloke?
chapman or pav?

not taking the geelong bye into account as i have no other geelong players and my upcoming opponents have lots so dont mind if i do lose this week and have to cover stevie j or chap

 

[Blues_FC]

I have $238 000 and have two options.

Zsmith ----------> McEvoy
Mzungu ---------> Boyd

or

Zsmith ----------> Mumford or Leuenbuger
Mzungu ---------> Mitchell

Opponent has Mitchell

This would compete my mids got smith and didak for cover

Option 1

Zsmith ----------> Mumford or Leuenbuger
Mzungu ---------> Mitchell

Option 1 easily imo. McEvoy is super consistent. Plus Kornes generally tags Mitchell and usually does a good job on him so I'd expect Boyd to outscore him this week

 

[Coastal_Pie]

Option 1

Cheers

Another option could be

Swap Petrie into the rucks -------> McEvoy

GU------> Mitchell

Then before the next game use the spare 100k to upgrade to replace the hole petrie would make in the fowards. In the mean time i would have to play Didak or I.Smith. Would still have three trades.

Hmmm

 

[PowerIStough]

Sylvia ----> Jobe Watson
Petrie ----> Luenberger/Mumford

 

[TheGhostOfJohnBelushi]

Sylvia ----> Jobe Watson
Petrie ----> Luenberger/Mumford

Why bother with Watson? Essendon have the round 22 bye.

 

[Robbo88]

Why bother with Watson? Essendon have the round 24 bye.

EFA.

Suckling if it's a trade

 

[quin_stick]

5 trades, 115k, double chance, going for league win, good cover, Gibbs, Murphy, SJ, Heppell with byes to come. Trade Zmith and Andrew Swallow to -

Option A) Jolly+Mitchell/Rockliff
Option B) Mumford/Leuey+Thompson
Option C) Jacobs+Ball
Option D) Keep Zmith and Swallow to Mitchell

 

[jaxx]

Why is Tom Jonas from PA 100k? Surely as a rookie he should be 80k? Sorry if this is commonly known thing I'm just a tad upset haha

 

[Noobz0r]

I'm in a bit of a pickle with my trading, would appreciate some opinions! 4 trades, $141,200, top 4 finish (so have a 2nd chance).

The only place that I am lacking is a 2nd premium ruck, I am looking to upgrade to Jolly, but don't know whether to upgrade Z Smith or Bailey... I'm also unsure whether to make the trade this week, or wait until next week to see where I am at.

My opponent has the same ruck combo as me atm (Cox / Smith), and tells me he is not going to trade. So either i upgrade to a premium ruck to try and get an advantage, or hope my current team earns me a week off.

Thoughts?

How are the rest of the matchups looking?
