hang on, we might end up on Super Coach and trading..Bottoms up!!He wont wont be coming back into my team ever in two week time once I trade his ar5e out.
If it wasn't for Rance getting injured then Spudrenko would be getting his marching orders and upgraded to Waite/Newman this week.
lol I'm talking about Petrenko getting back in the crows line up
Sorry mate, has just really annoyed me that's all. Hopefully I have got it out of my system now.
I kept walker only to avoid a zero , had beames and ablett issue , then mitch brown pulls up sore so i traded a spud like mitch thorp to macafer and put brown on the bench,
I just don't understand how Greenwood could get dropped? two 15+ possie game for a rookie is not bad.....In hindsight it was the wrong trade and should have gone Broughton... Yes, it was a newbie mistake too...why go for Laidley rookie when I could go for Harvey's rookie...
Anyhow still have:
Super Zac-Hill
I remember you saying Prompts after I traded Walker out that he is the new Hill. Thought you were on the p1ss or talking the p1ss (maybe both)
I wish I had Walker back but doubt I would have had the balls to start him on the ground over Macaffer anyways.
LOL - nah I was just thinking - what do the Crows see in the guy?
There must be something about Walker ..like S.Hill...They actually started the guy on the field...LOL
Walker ran riot today..he actually could have scored more if he kicked straight in the first quarter..LOL
I was listening on MMM and they call him TEX (lol texas walker - chuck norris..LOL)

How many trades do you have left.
Cant understand how anybody could have traded Zeibell yet. Defeats the purpose of having him in the first place. Last year i had Brad Ebert, had nothing special scores of 50-60's and one 100. I ended up trading him for something like 290k. Even average cows will get to 300k or very close, you have to be patient. Robinson could be back this week, has had 2 decent games in the last 2 weeks, Cheney the same, Hartlett should be back this week, Beams not long after.
Got him on my bench but not as an emergency.
Don't even know why he's not highlighted, he's been an emergency all year. **** it!

Tex was going to be my 9th forward. i actually had both him & M Brown named as emergencies as I had no cover in my mids or rucks.
It was only from checking on here that I discovered M Brown was a late out. Then I remembered someone said if you have 2 emergencies named in the one position you get the lower of the 2 scores.
So I made Hartlett an emergency even though he wasn't named, and made Tex the only forward emergency, just in case.
Phew!!!!

Anyone who kept him simply lucked out
Was playing crap all season, and neil craig was giving him a petrenko (a huge dud) no TOG. then, he flukes a 124.
Yes,i traded him last week, but it ridded me of kerr before hsi awesoem 32 and price drop of 64k.. so its a win for me anyways
i look forward to walkers next two scores of 32 and 19.

I hope so. Along with his nearly $30k rise this week, a 32 and 19 will see him go up a further $50k+.
I do agree that it was luck (for me at least) that he's still in the side. I had planned on trading him out but other things got in the way.

The thing is though if you had a combo of Walker and Macaffer/Warren/Nayas on your bench then would you seriously have picked Walker as an emergency to start over them?
No way, I had Walker/Warren bench... Of course I picked warren as emerg.
The lucky ones are those that had walker as the only playing forward bench position. Good on 'em!
I'm just stoked to have persisted with both SHill and Walker and will now reap the rewards $

Maybe this could be a SC rule, if it isn't already ... the 'taylor walker' rule
Keeping him wasn't "luck" for anyone who follows Adelaide closely.
with all the injuries teams are facing, I can't understand why trading walker for $90K cash was so desperately important to do after round 6

Agree completely, hondo. I don't think it was luck at all. He was named in the team, and with Hentschel injured always going to get games. I've always followed a similar rule of "don't trade a healthy playing rookie for less than $150k profit".
Even better news is Neil Craig is talking up a mid-season gameplan change that will revolve around quick movement through the middle to increase the dearth of inside-50s for them. Walker could be a major benefactor of this as his one-on-one contested marks look to be his strength.

So you wouldn't trade out garlett or robinson or crappy melbourne ruckman etc.... you'd just leave them there and not have any cash coming in

The fact is you dont have enough trades in a season to completely refresh your whole bench twice.
22 rounds is more than enough time to get two or even three rookies cycling through the ONE bench position providing nice cash deposits throughout the season.
No, we don't like having these duds on our benches, but trading them out is a luxury I don't beleive any one can afford.
Agree completely
I've had Hurley & Anthony sitting on my bench since round 1. Both should be back soon and, until now, I haven't needed their cover so I simply saved the trades. Jacobs the same. The only injury I have traded out is Raines. I have 15 trades left and don't plan to do any this week, ranked in top 2000.
i now have a series of short term injuries to ride out in Kornes, Hodge, Hartlett, Rance and maybe even Fev. I just have to suck it up and cop a donut here or there until they come back.
Un_Oc I think you are almost into single figures with trades left and it's only round 7! Listen to this man!!!
Read what I wrote again, genius.
Either way I wouldn't trade them. There's no point in having cash cows if you don't have the trades to cash them in later in.
Was going to trade him then saw Sidebottom named on the extended interchange of the pies. Took a punt that he would be named and brought him off my bench and replaced him with Walker who I duly made an emergency.
Then Sidebottom doesn't get picked and Higgins is a late withdrawal from my team. As a result i pick up Walker's score and now with Medhurst and Davis out I also get Sidebottom's!! Feel like I have been kissed on the dick by the supercoach fairy....

He hadn't really risen enough in value to justify wasting a trade to move him on. (Now of course that is different).
Most who benefited on the weekend did so because they had him as emergency to Higgins. My opponent Kevin Sheedy had me rolled this weekend because we both had Higgins (and he had Taylor Walker as emergency), fortunately for me Sidebottom, my forward emergency, was a late inclusion and he got me across the line.
Now if Patrenko can just fire like that before Adelaide move him back to the SANFL.

I think it should be called the 'stephen hill' rule if anything. this was the only reason i kept walker cos i was one the many that traded out hill for cheney

The one rookie that is annoying me is Tom Swift, whom I made a poor call as I thought his NAB cup form would get him a start. I should have stuck with Sidebottom who I had pencilled in before the season. I do still have Hill, Rich, and Walker!
