Trades Round 9 Trades

[Suns of Anarchy]

Who would you bring in out of:

Mills (via Laird) - keeps $132k in the bank
Guthrie - keeps $83.5k
Titch - keeps $165k
Bolton - keeps $192k

All worthy pick ups. Which line has the rookies you want off the ground most.

Sounds like Highmore is dead

https://www.afl.com.au/news/611844/...for-saints-debut-against-three-headed-monster

I've committed to holding Highspud all year, unless I get an opportunity to sideways him to a god-tier bench cheapo option down the track

Just hope the Saints cop a 20 goal beating and get roughed up on Friday night

If you drop a semi-premo, a fake premo, for a Rookie ....it makes your journey to Team Completion difficult

Did anyone actually bring Tex in as a keeper? It was a pure cash play. There was no way he was going anywhere near a 90 av for the season from R3 when everyone brought him in. You have to jump off now.

 

[buttox]

I'd be happy with that. Plays this week, scores 70, then he'll touch $300k

If there's no downgrade options next week, I'll just turn Flynn into Comben or Treacy to fund another upgrade

Yep. Im going this week on sweet who goes up 49k with a 60.
thats more than flynn will go up. so its this week or never.

 

[Maybe Tomorrow]

i think lachie jones will be worth getting when hes back fit. and yeah highmore, flynn, aquaman, please play haha.

Already been in and out of my team maybe

 

[go you pups]

Leon is a campaigner trying to save his job.
Flynn should be 500k by now and mooing

Efa

Won't English and Stef come straight back in?

Reckon Comben is the one. A bit more expensive but Treacy probably play more games, so you won't be confident using him as a loop.

Gws have said they will not play mummy 3 weeks in a row he has played the last 2. They play
r9 Richmond (Nank + marlon) Flynn plays
r10 West Coast (nicnat + williams) mummy plays
r11 Brisbane (Omac) mummy plays
r12 bye
r13 north (goldy) mummy plays
r14 Carlton (Pittonet) mummy plays.
thats my best guess.

That’s grim reading.

 

[buttox]

Won't English and Stef come straight back in?

probably.
Thats the worst case and he becomes a donut.
Id be happy with 80-100k growth over the next 10 weeks imo.
Im not relying on him on field.

Can you make any case whatsoever for keeping Tex WaynesWorld19 ? I agree that trading him sets back my team completion enormously, but also can't ignore the bleeding. Trading him means keeping 5-6 rookies on field again.

Lose by 20 goals, 6 defenders do their ACL

Preuss due back Rd 11-13

 

[gutsroy]

We'd be lucky. Best rookies this year are Powell and Jordon, both had some stumbling blocks and we are still waiting to cull them 8 rounds later.

IMO the thinking at the moment should be about warm bodies through the byes, not actual cash gen. If you want on-field value for your final team, it won't come from the rookies now but it might come from mid-pricers or fallen premo's.

Will vary by team, I guess, but have also mapped it out and it's tight given there are a number of dead rookies clogging benches.
Happens every year to an extent.

 

[buttox]

Preuss due back Rd 11-13

Preuss injured again r13-15

 

[gutsroy]

Hoping for two price rises from Flynn but gearing for just the one as the base case.

 

[Northernsoul74]

Won't English and Stef come straight back in?

Stef likely misses this week so Sweet should get another game. English should come back but unlikely as the main ruck.

Heard Leon Cameron on the Saturday rub podcast, he was pretty up beat about Mummy. I reckon Flynn gets one more (hopefully this week) then he's done, unless Mummy gets injured.

Trade Tex up, not down ......there is zero rationale to keep him, he's back to the normal Tex you never thought you'd consider for SC

He'll lose another $40K this week, but trading down, without seeing your side ...on face value is not an option

 

[rocker_oz33]

I'd run around the block nude for 2 price rises from Flynn and High-no-more. .

 

[freddy mercury]

One more rise from Flynn and then I will cull him for any 102k ruck.

 

[mochacinolatte]

Preuss injured again r13-15

has a track record of happening

Yes and no. You could for example trade Tex down to Treacy this week, then upgrade Flynn after one more game next week. Same number of trades, more $.

Its the bullocking random way he plays.
So many impact injuries.
