Option 1: Trade
votes: 12
Option 2: Hold
votes: 22
For all those Deledio holders out there, what do we do?
Take the risk and hold him or cut to the chase and trade him out...?
Hold this week and reassess next week
I would love to believe the coach that he will be back quick but he also told us Tiges would make the finals , think I'm going to punt him ...... I'm just about over SC this year :'(

Agree with this if you have cover or can afford the doughnut.

This x infinity, although lids can definitely polish my gonads if he misses another
I'm holding.
May well miss another 1-2 but it's not season ending so I'm happy to chick him on the bench and wait it out
I'm gonna hold, think I've got this weeks league match in the bag, but I will turn Menadue (F7) into Montagna and lids can have a sit on the bench
Got Barlow and McVeigh so got to hold.
Holding. Could trade him out. If I did I would get Gunston but with so few trades left and a lot of rounds to go it's too risky. I'd potentially be looking at doughnuts or other premiums with LTIs on the bench for the last couple of weeks and if Deledio is back next week or the week after I'd be kicking myself. I've got cover for him and am going to use it.
So what are people planning on doing with him now?
Still no official update, but it's not looking good and I reckon we have to trade him
With next to nothing in the bank I can only afford players under his 490k price tag
Dahl and NRoo seem like the obvious choices, and Toby Greene possibly
Anyone else I should be considering?
I've got top spot locked up in my cash league so I will look to make the trade next week anyway, but need to figure out some contingency plans
Put him on the same list as Missy.

Dahl next week. Will also give you some $ as his price will drop, assuming you have another trade to make use of it!

You're full of bull shower.... But I digress... I'll wait for an update on Lids still... Gunston is still the one I'd trade to if I rid myself of him.
either to gunston or Nroo, unsure yet.

Sure but first of all he isn't in my team and more importantly he doesn't play for the family club.
Any more news on this guy? If he won't be back next week (first week of finals) then I have to trade this weekend otherwise I won't be able to afford Gunston!

I'd definitely be trading him, Richmond will be in no rush to get him back in so they'll probably have him on ice the rest of the season. Hopefully I'm wrong for AXVIII purposes, but this kind of thing always happens. And Gunston seems like a good pick-up.

With Libba going down last night, i've had to settle for Buddy instead of Gunston, its the only way I had to get some $$ to replace Libba. Hopefully Buddy has a big last few games!

If he's out then easy trade for me to Merrett. Or I could do Petrecca to Dahl for M9/F7 cover. Swap and put Montagna as that and start Dahl. What do you guys think?
It's team specific re lids.
Most have f7 cover with a Greene, Petracca etc and in this case I'd be holding if you have a double chance in finals.
For me, I'm holding until I need to trade him out i.e. If Wells, Zerrett etc don't get up this week.
Will have to wait on teams but I'll most likely go Dahl or take a punt and go to a Tex Walker type and hope he comes home like a steam train

What if your F7 cover is Hall? One has to go but I have no idea which one.

Hall should be back next week, where as Lids we have NFI, so if they both don't get named this week then I am dumping Lids

Yep. Hall will be playing 14th August at 1:30 pm Fankhauser Reserve against Southport. :P
What to do with Deledio....?
They shoot horses don't they???

Racing the clock to be ready to face Geelong NEXT week, and it's a Sunday game too
Looks like I am trading him out tonight
Ciao Lids.
Another one to add to the never again list!

Yep he's a gonner for me too!! C u out of my side Lids.
I'm actually holding :-X
Why won't they let us know how long even apprx. pain in the butt think he has to go
Quote from: shaker on August 04, 2016, 10:01:58 PM

He's hoping to be back in Round 21 with the emphasis on hoping.
If I trade him out this week though he's a sure thing to be right to go.
If you are in the finals of a cash league i would trade. Its all or nothing right now and even if you get through this week holding lids might not be back next week.

I have Lids , Libba and Stef with no cover and 2 trades so I'm flowered anyway haha
Ok I'm now in two minds:
Do I trade Deledio to Merrett and keep Dpp with Tippa and Hammelman as D7/F7?
Or lose dpp, trade Tippa to Dahl, keep Lids but means Hammelman will be D7. Petrecca is M7 but he's covering Shiel this week and opp has him too but Matho his cover.
No more trades left after this week.

Yep shaker think you're right. Sucks to be you but if any consolation you've made me feel a bit better as I don't have Stef. My mum was right when she often said to me as a kid that there's always someone worse off than yourself. Thanks you poor bugger.

If I have made only one person feel better my job is done ;D
Have to trade one of Hall or Lids to avoid a donut
I figure Lids might be back next week, and Hall is still listed as 1-2 so will trade Hall as if they both return Lids will score better

It's a sad situation to be in RD... I have both and am holding as I have cover for both but I think if I was in your situation I'd probably trade Lids...Hall with a hammy will come back but Lids with his calf might not.

Well I've got Lids saying he is pushing to play next week, and I've got the GC website updated 2 days ago listing Hall as 1-2
They're both gone for at least another week, and whoever I keep will be bench cover anyway so that's why I am keeping Lids as he is the better scorer
I have Deledio and Hall with Kerridge and Hipwood covering (ugly)
Have the double chance in all my leagues though so might hold both and pray they are back next week. :'(
Still have 1 trade so will trade out whoever isn't back next week. ::)

Hey guys which option please? I'm in top 4 in all my leagues except one where I finished 5th, but need to win this one more considering the opponent. For this league my opp has Merrett. Thoughts please...

Im in the exact same boat as you mate. Sounds like lids is the safer bet now.
With cox back i do have cover... except can't exactly loophole with lids playing friday night too. If Cox goes large (cough cough) i'll leave hall on the field. Otherwise Hall to Dahl.
This topic is relevant again with Lids out for the year..
I have Lids sitting at f7 but obviously needs to go. Thinking that if Pendles is out this week I'll go Lids >> Dahl and swing Dahl into the mids to cover for Pendles..
I am through to my two SC prelims (or at least the ones I care about) so I could hold but at any rate I need to get rid of Lids at some point...
Thoughts?
