Will trading Barlow come back to bite me???????????

 

[Fyfetheknife]

Thinking Kolodjashnij to Pittard is this stupid? Just so sick of his bad scores. Also got Yeo giving me headaches and Adams on the bench :/

What Cricket said. Although I'd still hold your trade even if he is your only worry.

Will trading Barlow come back to bite me???????????

Doubt it. He might not even be back for a while. I know you're top 100 but how many trades do you have left? Having a bunch of trades later on will give you an advantage over the rest, so in that respect it could come back to bite you yeah.

depends who you get.
but i dont think so.

 

[GenuineMatchWinner]

Reversed changes a thousand times. Now thinking Barlow to Franklin and Adams to Petracca and keep Mills for now.

Thoughts??

Solid picks but bit wary of ditching Barlow when Lyon is known to be a campaigner, he might be back as early as next week for all we know and Mills' BE is high at 94, I would ditch Mills and hold Barlow for this week at least then re-assess from there.

 

[Lumbajac]

Is it too late to pick up JSmith? I missed out on him last week trying to cover my rucks with Cox.

 

[Cazbah]

if that is your biggest problem, then maybe
still wouldnt recommend it.

id be looking at strengthen that fwd line
possible Tip out this week for Dahlhaus/Hall/Zerrett/Zorko/Monty
or are you planning a double upgrade of BenKen and Tippa next week?
how many trades left?

 

[nameless]

Not too sure on future rookie prospects, McPherson looks good for next week.

But I like what I've seen from Keays, ball magnet in NEAFL, just waiting for him to find his way at AFL level.

As such, even with all the injuries sticking with original plans.

McCarthy & Mills OUT
Petracca & Keays IN

$960k in the bank

This is my current team with me trading in patracca for mills, I have one trade left.

Long time reader first time poster!

Looking for some advice, Houil being out has thrown me off, was going to do mcGovern for Martin but would rather play Paply then have him on the bench and hope he has a pluky game.

I have no interest in winning a league, i just want to finish as close to overall as i can. I am thinking of moving Wells to Ward. The reasoning is every top team has him, if i move him on I am hoping his body does not hold up and he misses games which will give me an advantage down the track.

I like this move more then upgrading Houli to a defender as i just don't trust them to put soild scores and i won't be losing much in the way of points in the long run.

I am banking on Mezel and Kerridge to be keepers and avg in the low 90's and would look to bring in dollhouse and lids or joey in the next few weeks to finish my forward line.

Thoughts?

Tossing up whether to put the itchy trade finger away or roll the dice. 22 trades left (1 left this week), $127k in the bank.

B: H Shaw, Laird, Yeo, Adams, Dea, M Brown (Hartley & Wagner)
M: GAJ, Parker, Dangerfield, S Mitchell, Hanneberry, Zaharakis, Libba, Petracca, Keays (R Davis, J Smith & Gresham)
R: Goldstein, Blicavs (Grimley)
F: D Martin, Franklin, Montagna, Dalhaus, Kerridge, McTip (Papley & Cox)

Backline is concerning me the most at present. Haven't researched enough to find out what the problem with Yeo is but he is seriously p1ssing me off. With my one remaining trade this week, I could get rid of M Adams and go:
a) Adams > Bartel (or any BACK under $477k)
b) Adams > JJK, Boomer or any FWD (via McTip) under $447k

Or alternately, I could p1ss Yeo off, and go:
a) Yeo > K Simpson
b) Yeo > Boyd, Bartel or any BACK under $568k.
c) Yeo > A Hall, Riewoldt or any FWD under $568k.

If Yeo's form slump is temporary though, I'm not really improving my overall team by axing him.

I'm reasonably happy (I think) to have Hartley and Wagner covering for Laird and Adams this week....so should I go one of the above trades or just sit tight?? Any help/advice muchly appreciated!

Milera and Mills out

Petracca and Keays in.

Sitting with 374 100 in the bank

 

[Hawker3peat]

Any love for Zac Merrett?
Seems well priced but will he be close to top 6 Fwds?

 

[Abstract]

Ended up holding Adams and trading out Mills and De Goey for Zorko and Short. Also, welcome back Rance. Adams and Wells on the pine isn't ideal so I'm hoping Brown and Wagner continue their good form.

Shaw, Rance, Smith, Rich, DBJ, Wagner, (Hartley, Adams)
Parker, Ablett, Ward, Jelwood, Zorko, Zaharakis, Cripps, Libba, (Smith, Gresham, Keays)
Gawn, Blicavs, (Grimley)
Hall, Martin, Tippet, Kerridge, Petracca, Brown, (Wells, Short)

Looking forward to adding Daulhaus and regaining Wells up forward next week. Should be good for an extra 50 points!

youd want a few trades up your sleeve to be taking that sort of risk.

Of course Brad Crouch is a risk, happy to take the punt, he's blown the cobwebs out now & I loved him preseason.

Ceiling is very high, if he can find it......let's see.

If I were you I'd be aggressive and turf Barlow. He's an albatross. I like the Buddy pick. Had him from the start and one of my few pleasant picks. Under the radar here which is fine by me.

 

[Krujan]

I have Houli, Laird, MAdams, RGray, Barlow, Wells all riding the pine this week. I really don't want to trade any of them out so I am thinking I will just do Mills to Bartel through DPP. I only have like 510K with trading Mills out and Bartel is the only player in that range that I see being in the Final 22 for the season. Unfortunately I have no bench cover at any position besides FWD and I am playing like the likes of Menadue, Keays, Petracca, Oliver. I feel like I am really in a tough spot.

Same spot as everyone else, bud.

I've been praying for 7 weeks. Would be a huge boost to my side if he can find form....NOW!

I've got 23 trades left, honestly didn't even notice my FWD line until you said something. I'll probably look at going Tippa to Dahl or Zorko.

Thanks mate.
