Trades Round 7 Trades

Gulden to Heppell?

Could do, haven't looked at it. Injury interrupted, do you think he will be rested?

 

[Maybe Tomorrow]

Will be different depending on your individual mix, but the rd 12 bye shapes as super-awkward, looking ahead.

Clearance could be very tricky tbh.

I've only got Sexy Tom Stewart, Ziegull and Titch for that bye at present. Won't be adding any premo's for that bye until round 13.

Haven't planned for the byes in any way, but looked today and I'm fairly evenly spread, Round 14 could be a bit interesting depending on trades before then though.

No, I am just a simple man, with a heart of Gold, in a complicated land.

Fair enough, I wouldn't expect Barnesy to understand why people are considering BBB, either.

Seagulls don't need rests. The bloke has played 3 games in a row with 90% TOG, just had 7 tackles, is still only 28 yo, I reckon he's starting to feel good about himself, playing on his terms down back. I'm jumping onboard

Lance Whitnall?

A lot of chol has to go under the bridge before i be trading in that goofy spud Ben Brown at 260k.

A lot of people started with Daniher for roughly the same price, and he didn't have these stats behind him.

Solid SC scoring history as well, 75-85 average looks a minimum if he can stay fit

Yeah true. Norfs number 7 hasn't gone near an opponent and is dominating SC, in footy in general he is a liability for Norf down back.

Yep, if Zieb can get his body right and rack up big numbers down back, no reason Heppell can't. Doesn't get the kickouts so he won't go 120 like Zieb, but he should be good for 90-100

If you're not sold on Hepp, just save the cash and trade for a 1 up/1 down next week

Yep, and Norf have been a very ordinary team for most of that period. Melbourne's midfield and defense are dominating and don't really have any big forwards up there. TMac and Weide were better players playing second fiddle to Hogan. Expect Brown to be the focal point up forward. Leads well, marks well and is a sensational kick at goal. From memory he was kicking around 2/3rds of his shots at goals during that period. Also, don't forget he knows Bludestone pretty damn well.

 

[Jiska]

On BB, I'll wait - as tempting as it is taking him playing against NM at Blundstone - but in a couple of weeks he'd almost be a no brainer replacement to Warner who will have maxed out. Bank 100k and Melb/Syd have the same Bye round so Bye structures remain intact. A lot to like.

23 trades, 1k in the bank. Ranked 808

Without having looked too much into my byes (will after footy training tonight)

I am currently thinking of:
Dunkley to Petracca (who I think will go 120 from here and is undervalued). Although this may leave my forward line short with Dusty out this week too.

Depending on selections, I am tempted to flick Berry to Dev Rob who should have a good run in the Lions side here with Neale and JBerry injured/playing with niggles.


Would then look at upgrading Gulden next week.

Any other ideas?

Those trades are fine, although I'd go Dunkley to Dev so he gets into your FWD line this week. Then Berry or Chapman to Petracca

Yep I'm waiting until he's on the bubble to decide. Having said that, Daniher had a day out against his old club a couple of weeks back I'm sure that played a part

Which is good, because he might start off with a handy cash generating score, but also bad because it'll drop out of his 3 round average early and not have the impact it otherwise might.

 

[gutsroy]

Yeah but every campaigner has him. It is killing me every week. I have won three of my cash leage games by under 100 points purely because I didn't have number 7 from Norf. Against Geelong I had like 15 points and Tom Stewart Vs number 7 from Norf and I won by 8 points. If I had have started him I would be in the top 5k.

It's rough and he's been immense.
Just reckon there are more efficient ways to use the money in the long run.
But tbh I'm already looking at options to trade him out at a peakish price, so maybe I'm not objective.
Just can't see him sustaining it long-term.

I'm with you on this. Now that JZ has confidence in his body again, I'd prefer that they ask him to do more than the seagull role. It might take a few more weeks, though, since Tarrant, Corr and McDonald are still out for a while.

 

[Jiska]

Really dawning on me now how much not starting Norfs number 7 has killed my side. I gotta trade him in this week through Dunkley. Now if I had started him, I could've downgraded Dunkley to Brayshaw, banked the 100 odd thousand and then upgraded Gulden to a premo. But now I cant do anything, just gonna take the hit this week to my ranking and my cash league.

Why do you have to trade him in, though?
It's jumping into a position after a hundreds of thousands and a heap of points have already flowed under the bridge.
If I didn't have him now, I'd be keener on avoiding him and hoping to profit if a hiccup comes along.

Don't agree with you gutsroy, I reckon Ziebell is an absolute must have if freddy mercury doesn't have him. I'd be staggered if he's not in the top 6 forwards for points scored for the remainder of the season, especially given all the injuries and outs. Perhaps only Dusty has the possibility of topping him if he gets going.

Absolutely possible, just looking at it from the perspective that you're jumping into a position really late.
Injuries?
Do they change something up? (He does tend to get caught out of position a fair bit as a pure defender.)h
If he continues the current run, he's a must have, just don't know if he can.

Ziebell is already 182 points ahead of Dustbin, and will be at least one game ahead. He could be the top scoring forward by 500 points. Dunkley was his only competition.

He can say what he likes, he's 61 points behind and about to blow a calf any minute now

So if that happens he becomes a SP mid and they will only have cost me $400k and I've banked Tex's points

Hey gents,

Need some advice on my next move. Currently thinking:

Dunkley > Ziebell
Gulden > Brayshaw

Thoughts?
