What are people's thoughts on LDU before the price rise?

He will make cash but he’s expensive to begin with.
He’s not essential in my opinion if your other rookies all look good.
I’m not getting him.

Exactly this. Because I ran deep in mids (Libba M7, don't have anyone worth culling like Dusty), I already have Walsh, Scott, Constable, Butters. I'm passing on LDU

Thanks guys. He looks like his JS s good soight bring him in. Who would be better out of Walsh and him for cash generation?

If you have neither, I'd probably get LDU because he's scoring way better. I wouldn't sideways one to the other though.

im going Dusty to LDU and then Hore to Kelly.

I really liked LDU entering last season i thought he would win the rising star and be the best SCer. He is showing he is really good but just took some time to adjust as he was horrible last year.

Winning alot of Contested Ball which is a very good sign, got 15 CP (out of 26)  on the week and 7 CP (out of 15). The good thing is he costs quite alot so he is a good stepping stone and his big round 2 score means he will go up to a good price.

If he is bad the next 2 weeks and say goes 60 60 he will rise to about 275k which is stepping stone price, you can dump him to a cheap rookie pocket the 150k which will almost be enough to turn a rookie into a fallen premo

Thats if he fails if he can keep up a 75 average then he will get up to 330k

I'm thinking the same Holz, LDU has definitely taken some time to warm up to AFL level but is looking good, attending a lot of CB this year and think he will hold his spot.

I'm giving Heeney the flick and bringing him in, at the very least he'll get to $330k like you said and it gives me $340k in the kitty as well

[RaisyDaisy]

Jed Anderson listed as test and Paul Ahern killed it in the VFL

Not saying LDU will get dropped, but his CBA number will reduce I would think

He will make cash, but he could revert to 70ish scores, and if that happens then it's not worth a trade for me. Can't chase points - I can see the appeal, he has looked fantastic, but Anderson/Ahern concern me, and at his price he needs to keep scoring well to justify the use of 1 our precious trades

I've got Libba at M6 with Walsh and Constable on field, so that's probably enough of a reason for me not to need him and pass

Back to back 65's has LDU at 310k based off SC Gold projections. Checked with TooSerious Calc's and it is well off.

LDU's JS is as good as ever. Anderson will play outside so Thomas/Scott are under the firing line, does not affect him at all. Ahern may affect him but he has the ability to play in other possies imo. LDU is an in and under guy, that's why they got him.

I'd take two 70's in the next two weeks, would see him at 320k and a breakeven of <30 going into Round 5. Basically if he doesn't shower the bed he is guaranteed to make a quick fire 150k. Could hold on a bit longer and see him get closer to 400k or take his cash and dump, will be around 350k if you decide to dump quickly so could easily make 200k+ in a trade fairly easy.

If you have someone to ditch for him like Dusty that’s not a bad move. If you’re going sideways it’s not so good though. Who goes out for him? Maybe Cousins if you have him, but he was the 4th best ranked on ground from mid Q3 yesterday...

I've got Cousins in my mid, how bad were the injuries for Hawks and does it look like his role will continue to improve?  Don't think it's worth trading him regadless as he is scoring well for a 219K price guy.

Shiels and Burgoyne were both soft tissue injuries, so you would expect 2-3 weeks at least. Shiels out in particular should mean Cousins continues getting plenty of minutes in the guts.

Cheers, will save the trade and let him make me some cash.

[bartsy]

is bailey smith to LDU worthwhile. I get the impression Smith is going to be very slow burn and not make much cash. Having LDU might mean some more consistancy on field in place of Scott as well.

Tree him to who in 2 weeks? If you're getting him I'd be expecting to have to hold him longer than 2 weeks when the right downgrade option pops up
