Worst trades of the season

[GmeUP]

I'm nominating myself for the worst double trade of the year to date. After 3 piss poor performances I decided Bowden was on the decline and traded him and Frawley for Adcock and Gilbert.

Last 2 weeks
Gilbert 112 & 93 = 205
Adcock 96 & 74 = 170
Total = 375 - 2 trades

Bowden 175 & 125 = 300
Frawley 79 & 92 = 171
Total = 471 + 2 trades

So 2 weeks ago I burnt 2 trades for -96 points gee i hope Bowden starts to stink it up!

Traded Skippy to Harvey last week.

That's not a bad trade as such. Just unlucky!

Round 2
OUT: Stephen Hill $164,200
IN: Kyle Cheney $94,200

Round 3
OUT: Kyle Cheney $161,000
IN: Alex Rance $94,200

I know the idea of a cash-cow is to hold onto them for more than 1 round, but it just felt like trading Chemey out the right course of action.

Gave me an extra $70,000 and meant that I could bring Ablett and Cox last week (guys I should've have from the start)

x2 Im not all that upset about it though, gave me the cash, like you to get Ablett last week, and can turn Hille in to Cox this week!

Started season with Ottens. Kept him for a while, then traded him out for Hille the day before the ANZAC match.

Before the round 3 lockout i got rid of Raines for Joel McDonald when i thought Goddard at around $50k extra would be a waste of money. I still would have had 10k to spare if i went for Goddard and about a million extra points by now.

 

[Dylz48]

hill for cheeny when hill was going crap and chenney was killing it now cheeny cant get a game and hill is killing it

 

[adii_7]

brad johnson for didak instead of Leon Davis..

DUDAK gets injured and davis is on FIRE!

 

[trossa]

Hahah read this beauty in one of my leagues, and no, it wasn't me:

'i deserved to lose this week stupid stupid trade chad cornes and stephen hill out for ryder and joel macdonal what a waste'

 

[Rimmer]

Easy one,

I traded in Harvey on the Friday for 10 mins play on the Saturday

Not so muh bad as unlucky unless of course you traded Ablett out and Harvey in

 

[dUkezz]

out harvey in richo, when i coulda picked goowdin, davey, davis, riewoldt

i thought richo was gonna have 1 bad week then be back to his normal self, yeh he had his bad week, but now he wont play for another 12

 

[RevDog]

I traded Anthony for Robinson, I thought it was a pretty dumb trade now that I look at it cause both aren't playing.

 

[watt043]

got rid of bowden after round 3, thought he may not be capable of those super high scores any more, i was wrong

 

[Shane_Mag]

Hill out for Cheney. Horrible move I did. It killed me to see Hill get over 100 points last weekend.

I let the extra dough in the bank blind when making this one. In hindsight its been a chain of sub quality trades since.

Goddard in for Geary instead of Cheney. I didnt want 3 saints in my backline and was too stubborn to trade in Cheney one week then have to trade him out the next. Since then Geary has posted some very solid scores and Cheney hasnt played a game.

 

[Silent Hawk]

Traded in Kosi for Harvey, and Harvey goes on to score 160 odd while Kosi injures his hammy... suffice to say my league has ranked this as the worst trade of the year so far! But the Gods smiled onto me, Harvey on LTI and Kosi a minor hammy and since coming back.

Ouch.

My trades have been decent......Just wanted to make a comment of Duddy... Geez I hate this guy not personally...just hate his arrogance...so I made it a rule last year not to get Duddy...this year I said, leaving personal views aside, I should get him..

now what does he do?

Anyhow...maybe me getting rid of Petrenko could be bad..

Before round 6, traded Sam Jacobs for Meesen, as Jacobs was injured for a while, and i thought i could use the cash from meesen to upgrade later.
Before round 7, find out that Meesen is out for the season.

I also refused to have 3 saints in my backline (i already have Goddard and Fisher), and instead of trading Raines to Gilbert after round 1, i picked up Petterd, who hasn't done too badly, but he isn't posting the same scores as gilbert.

spencer for meeson last week , needed to do a trade as simonds was dropped and jacobs injured, was not expecting spencer to be back(and he may not be back) as he would have been 4th or 5th melb ruck
