Round 8 Trades

[Rise_up_Stiffy]

Rocky -> MacP
McCarthy -> Boyd. Zorko is tempting.

 

[FlowersByIrene]

TRADES:
OUT: Rockliff, Mills
IN: Macpherson, Boyd

I'm fairly happy with the look of this side for this point in time. Next week is a big week, I'm hoping Fantasia can pull himself out of this slump, go back to half back and score again, but who knows. Otherwise I'll be focussing on either flipping Dea and McDonald-T into Vince/Simpson and a Rookie, if they both do poorly, or looking to upgrade Menadue to Zorko/Montagna/Riewoldt if the Essendon boys do alright this weekend.

Either way, by the start of Round 10 i'm looking to have only one rookie on the field in each line. And i'm happy with how that is progressing. Hopefully that means by the end of the byes i'll have premiums in every position, including Kerridge/Wells/Fantasia/Cripps turned into uber premos.

 

[RickSanchez]

So Wells is definitely out?
Urgh.
Crouch and Wells for maybe Sidebottom and S. Mitchell.
Sounds good but I really wanted that muny to upgrade rookies.

 

[doona]

I am thinking:

Marcus Adams > Stefan Martin
Lincoln McCarthy > Darcy MacPherson

Though Fantasia/Davis/Menadue/Mills/Wells could be on the chopping block. I am trying to grab the bottomed out promo with S.Martin

 

[Torz]

Any thoughts on what to do?

Hopefully Wells pulls up alright. I think Lincoln McCarthy needs to go first. Could do with an upgrade in the midfield, but Ellis and Smith haven't topped out yet.

Main issue is no cash. Only $8k in the bank.

Did you get Macpherson last week? not bad, I'd probably go McCarthy>Rookie and either Seedsman or DeGoey to a premium

Yeah, last week. Took the punt on him based off NAB. Could trade De Goey out for Jordan Lewis. He looked to be back to his best this week. Only $484k.

 

[Keystone agony]

If Wells is named ill certainly keep him. I highly doubt he will be against the dons and i reckon Higgins and Goldy will also be rested.

I think ive given up getting Heath shaw till just before the byes. Unless v

If Taylor Adams isnt named again then i will have a good look, might be worth trading him to H.Shaw.

Rockliff -> Dustbin (probs lowest price for the year he should be). [would go Zorko if I could afford it but I'll wait till the 140+ score rolls out)
Mitch McGovern -> Keays (no other rookie options... will reassess at teamsheets... already have Macpherson and Petracca... hopefully gets some midfield rotations with Rocky being gone.... :/ haha doubt it... plus Brisbane have easiest next few weeks)

then switching everything with DPPs gets all my best rookies (Petracca, Macpherson, Oliver) on the field.

Keays and Hewett become mid Emergencies.

Gain whatever points Oliver scores more than McGovern.

Will have to do something else if Wells and McCarthy and co are all down as well. (Can cover Wells with Hewett).

How does it roll out? Im pretty sure the pricing takes into account all rounds with the heaviest weighting aligned to hte most recent of games.

Just wondering if you know the formula at all, very surprised no one has worked it out yet

 

[RickSanchez]

Best mid to get at the moment?
Can afford anyone but I'd like the best priced one as I wanna save some money for an upgrade next week.

 

[crafty_bernardo]

Praying for Wells to be included against Ess.

I would think Viney/Gibbs/Duncan are good value picks. J.Steven has spudded it up this week so will be cheap (Will be cheaper next week).... Zorko is dominating at the moment, is keeping the 100+ average up. T. Mitchell due to his poor game is cheap..... quite a few options out there.

 

[Keystone agony]

Who scores more?

Currie vs GWS (Mumford)
or
J.Smith vs Brisbane

Sort of completely changed my tune and trades but if Wells is named and plays which i see as unlikely then i will go.

H.Shaw (115), K.Simpson (95), D.Rich (90), M.Adams (65), C.Mills (65), C.Byrne (65) - Ruggles, T.Lee

T.Mitchell (230), Dangerfield (105), J.Selwood (105), M.Duncan (100), T.Adams (105), L.Hunter (110), Zaharakis (100), J.Smith (80) - Macpherson, Blakely

Blicavs (95), S.Martin (105)

A.Hall (100), Z.Merrett (100), Barlow (90), Kerridge (90), Wells (90), Tipungwuti (65)

What could possibly go wrong?

 

[stormee]

Ugh my team sucks, so much that needs fixing.

Menadue > Macpherson
Rocky > Zorko

Going to play Zork in the fwds and have Oliver and Smith on the ground in m7 and m8. The annoying thing and I'm sure a lot of others are dealing with this too, is that I have the cash and the maxed out rooks to upgrade weekly, just injuries keep stopping me from doing so.

 

[Citrus22]

Boyd, Vince or James Kelly?

If Wells isn't named I'm thinking i might just bench him for the week and play Macpherson on ground instead.

 

[cynical]

im assuming Wells plays

Rocky -> MacPherson
Fantasia -> Boyd

$300k next week

 

[Fyfetheknife]

Rocky > anyone (help?)
Davis > Keays

 

[Dan12]

Who are the best upgrade options in defence? Got Shaw, but no other premiums. Thinking Pittard at the moment, but could easily change to Vince, Simpson or someone else.

 

[rimb]

Right now it's:

Rockliff > Lewis (fingers crossed...)
+
Fantasia > Simpson (Fantasia now playing as a small fwd and scoring as such)

Leaves me $85k to hopefully upgrade Mills or Mc-Tip to McVeigh next week with a rookie downgrade.

 

[YippeeYiYeo]

So currently :
Mackenzie ---> Castagna
Mills ----> Simpson.

Projected score still showing sub 2k which is annoying.
