Interesting Trade Options with $126k! (Golby & Giles)

[Zombie2.5]

Okay, I've got an interesting situation here and I want some opinions!

I think I'm gonna trade Golby this week, and I'm not sure if I should trade Giles out, Strengthen side + bench with Goodes or just stick with one Golby trade.

I have come up with a few options, including an interesting one.

5 trades and $126.6 k

1. Golby to Suckling and Giles to Jacobs(Or anyone lower)
For this option, I get rid of Golby & Giles, my weakest links starting on my field, but not sure I want Jacobs/Hille/Mumford/Griffin

2. Golby to Suckling and Treloar to Goodes
This is interesting, because my forward line is complete(with Zorko cover) and I don't need a forward. But if I do it, then I have the luxury to play gun Fwd + Mid lines, with Martin + Zorko as cover(Murdoch and Gibson too). Only thing is I'll have to keep Giles(not sure I really want to trade) and will be left with $100. ;D just enough! 8)

3. Golby to Scotland and hold
Getting in Mr.consistent Scotland and hold(no money for any other trades). Can't really go wrong, no risk here. Not very exciting though :P

4. Golby to Yarran and Giles to Cox
This is a lot more risky, getting in Yarran but I get in Big Cox, not a fan of this option really, but its still a decent option.

5. Hold trades.
I could just keep Golby & Giles and stay on 5 trades for finals. (Not ideal, especially if Golby isn't named this week).
The rest of my team is fine though, no worries except the recent carnage.

I'm actually really liking the look of getting in Suckling & Goodes, great cover for the 'carnage' to come.
Also I don't have Waters :), just Goddard, Martin and Franklin.

Any help appreciated, and will cheer!! :)

Hmmm a lot to think about here..

Lets take a look towards options 2 and 3 for you.

If you go option 2 Zombie it gives you the necessary cover and does complete your forwards however Im not a fan of Sukkers in the backline because of his up and down scores however he is a good player to have.

Looking at option 3 is going the most safe trade of all. Makes your backline likely stronger (not knowing your other back lineup)

Scales 60/40 and an interesting call to make. Option 2 in my book. Good luck.  :)

Hmm, yeah I really like the look of Martin/Zorko cover, because imo, there's gonna be a lot more carnage.... will really help
Don't think Giles can do too much wrong as i can only get Jacobs/Hille/Griffin/Mummy. I would probably rather Scotland than Suckling but Suckling gives me cash for more flexibility(Have just enough to get the Goodes).

My backline is Deledio, Goddard, Broughton, Birchall, Golby, H.Shaw, Carrazzo. (S.Darley, B.Smedts)
So its solid except for Broughton >:( and Goddard being out.
Forwards and mids are my strength though :)

Out of those I like the first option. Giles is a liability with his up and down scoring/potential to be rested.

Another option you might want to look at is downgrading Treloar to one of the 98k fwd/rucks and then upgrading one of your bench rucks to Roughead. This will give you the flexibilty to play Roughy on the field if Giles is struggling/not selected or switch him to the forwards as cover there.

I like option 2 zombie. I guess you have to risk it to get the buscuit! I only wish i could have that sort of cover and if the way the season has gone so far there will be plenty of carnage to come and i know alot of people dont have much cover at all even copping donuts this week. And with Giles i would probaly hold. I reckon Cox and Jacobs are as good a chance to get rested in the coming weeks as Giles. Yes you might make a 'few' extra points but if Cox or Jacobs miss a week, it kinda of cancels the trade out. Big decisions for you though Z.

Solid option there, but I don't really like getting in players that don't play and I've never liked Forward/Ruck strategies...
Also doesn't solve Golby in the backline(not named this week either). Good thinking though. ;)
