Trades Round 4 Trades

[SSwans2011]

Hahaha thanks mate, Rachelle 42 BE is quite high, of all popular rookies his is defs the highest, well at least for me he is by quite some margin.

Now of course mate, normally i let my cows moo and moo as long as they can before ofloading, but when you see my options here for trading, Rachelle sticks out like a sore thumb and honestly, unless he busts out a 100+, his price rise in the next few weeks isn't going to be anything compared to my other options.

I am not saying trade Rach, but for me when you look at my team (i undid my trades so you can see where i am coming from):

View attachment 1364192

So As you can see Rach is most obvious for me to trade for some cash generation now and then Stephens.....so as you can see they my most logical options (NOTICE BE in comparison to other rookies)

Now thats why i am thinking what i am with my trades, but by all means Stephens i would DEFINETELY keep, but by trading him and swapping B.Uwland, i upgrade him to Bowey who is a potential D6 currently and well. Not to mention Bowey is expected to rise another $60k if he scores 85-90 odd.

So i hope you see now my logic behind it.

Bowey won't be a keeper once Salem returns. You could still make up to $150k bringing him in, but next to no chance he's a keeper IMO.

Unless you're adamant on bringing Bowey in for his cash gen potential, I'd hold Rachele till at least next week when you will have the option to trade him for Preuss, Gollant, or McInnes.

Salem is out for 5-7 weeks mate.

I think by then Bowey would have done his job regardless for scoring or cash generation for an EASY straight premo swap if need be.

Bowey, could be $450k by then easily.

As for Preuss, ill see what happens next week, no rush worrying about him now.

I know, I brought Bowey in for the same reason last week. Thought you meant he was a potential D6 come season's end.

I'm not huge on the idea of swapping a rookie for Bowey because you'll lose out on their potential cash gen which will obviously cancel out Bowey's gains, but it makes sense if Uwland is the rookie you're trading.

 

[buttox]

These high priced guys are killers. A trade for $75k. I know he could do better, but it's not a great return on $200k.

Yep.
Not much on the horizon next week either.


This weeks bubble boys

Sorry mate i did an edit on that post, go check again might clear up some things.

Uwland is simply being swapped from Def to Mid, not traded.



thats the trades im planning, it's based on Cash generation/scoring potential/potential keeper......risk/reward makes perfect sense to me.

Yeah not much on offer there, unless you don't have Martin.

I'm considering trading Uwland to Skinner, but doubt I'll do it.

Don't, we got McInnes, Eramus, Mcentee, Stein, Boyd and Wanganeen as all good targets for next week + Preuss

As above, plenty next week.

It is probably a good thing.
Easy to do no trades.

Any jump out at you as must haves?
McInnes was alright. 61
Erasmus is expensive for scores of 58
McEntee looks crabish. 43
Stein 176k for a score of 64. That is a fail week.
Boyd scored 36.
Wanganeen 37.
There is a few of them but they all look crap.
McInnes may be an option.

 

[Soggy2112]

Is it Adelaide posters chiming in on Rachele or?

He doesn’t look like a good pick because of role, obv being a rookie with big score fluctuations, and BE.

He’s had two sub par scores now fwiw and rnd 1 essentially does not matter through rnds 4 onwards as it only stays in the price rise range for 1 cycle.

Say his max is 250k trading him out now is still cost effective as per if your jumping on better value players say Xerri/Brodie with negative BE’s.

When we picked him we knew that we were going to get 50s and 60s from him, but we were backing him to get enough big scores to get his cash gen going. My point is that one crucial 50m penalty that cost him 15 points is not really a fair reflection of how he’s going to perform across the season, you take it out and he’s had two scores in the 50s and one massive score.

So again, if you picked him at the start of the year or after round one, what has changed between now and then that he’s no longer a good pick?

Only way I see it as viable is if he’s the only way to get Martin in.

It's still too early for downgrades really, most of my rookies have plenty of mooing to do. Even Rachelle can go again, a 70 odd this week and he'll keep going up for a few weeks.

Preuss might be a must have with another big score. Not sure about the rest.

Nope none are must haves from that list, i am eyeing Preuss if anyone he is easily the most important of the lot on the bubble next week....

Agreed.
Im going to try and force an upgrade round 6 with a trade boost I reckon.
Any rookie I bring in will have gone up enough to upgrade before the end of the byes.
Even round 6 is very early.
I think its best not to trade again before that if I can manage it.
Give a few rookies more of a chance to score well.

As much as i want Green in, as you can see can't really go too deep more than i have in mids.

So at this stage (baring team selection massacre), i like this idea:

View attachment 1364199

I don't know how much cash you have banked, but having two non scorers on your bench is a concern.
Still fairly new at this, could Rachelle > Gollant / Jelly > Greene / Uwland > Bowey be an option

 

[Maybe Tomorrow]

Yes I'm also going to try not to trade until round 6. Sitting on $150k so should be able to do an upgrade then. A forward is the first target.

Waiting until the positional changes happen is probably ideal. I saw an article on Facebook that Titch might get mid/fwd

Agree also, i am only trading Rach because a rookie at his price with a BE of 42 is high, very high compared to the rest of the rookies. That is only reason im trading him this week to generate cash to be able to upgrade then Stephens to Bowey. Stephens is i agree being traded very early, but he has higher BE of any other option for me to upgrade and i have luxury of swinging a DPP to allow this to happen.

Otherwise i like to keep rookies until their BE reaches close to their average before trading.

I started upgrading round 7 last year.
6 should be doable this year with a boost.
Titch as a forward would be epic.
I would need to see a 100 before I jumped on though.
Pendles also interests me.
Round 6 seems like a 2 down 1 up week.
Any debuts this week will be on the bubble for us round 6.

 

[CrozaN]

Of a possible 8 bench players, i have 6 playing.......Uwland and Long were put there before round 1 purely for DPP flexibilty, i don't have to rely on them at all and when time comes, easy trade to best bubble rookie if need be.

I deliberately wanted 2 102k DPP players not playing for the DPP aspect and loophole aspect.

Is not a concern at all, and never will be since they never will need the (E) on them.

Rachele has plenty of money to make. He'll obviously be up and down in his scoring but only needs one more big score to go past 300k

By my calculations if you start upgrading round 7
Use boosts rounds 7,8,9,10,11 that is 15 trades.
Then 9 for the bye rounds.
so 24 all up used upgrading IMO.
Lets say 6 for injury trades. Gets us to 30.
It leaves me 3 trades for the rest of the year.
That is the plan anyways.

Hope for your sake there are enough rookies to do that many downgrades

There is every year. That wont change.
More rookies are available earlier in the year.
What will 100% happen though is more rookies will score 100s the week you trade them out.
Because your going through rookies quicker.

And you are getting less money for each trade if you go early, fine margins.

Yes of course! No doubt, but for who im trading him too, its a no brainer in terms of cash generation
