Slightly relevant for captaincy options for 2015
It's a carnage week, premos are underperforming, all hell is breaking loose

now obviously this varies by position, clearly a 70 from a failing ruckman is better than a 70 from a failing mid
also history comes into it
so consider this, you're "premo" has been bumping out solid scores (think regular 95-110 scores)
and then in one week, he drops (tag, slight niggle, thrashing, resting forward, whatever)

what score are you happy with?
or what keeps him in the side, rather than the "rage trade" option (assume you have a completed side, and spare trades)

Over the year I've been bitten many times by rage trading under performing premiums so my limit would be a bit lower at around 50.

Think we have all been guilty of rage trading and regretting it later.  I would not be looking at trading premiums unless they are consistently scoring below expectations and by that I mean 4/5 scores close together below what I am expecting.

and that's what I want to know,
what is that limit? or does it depend on the position?

for me personally, I rate it around the 70 mark
70 is still a reasonable score, they may have been tagged
but any lower and it's a cuase for concern (2 straight 60s and Im considering his place)

To explain say I think player x should be averaging 90 and he puts in is say 4 scores less than 90 in 6/7 weeks he will be gone. This is for 2 reasons his break even will keep going up so need to get rid of him before his value falls too much.

Before pulling the pin will analyse what has happened eg injury knock but kept playing, subbed but you need to keep an eye on tagging as if low scores are a result of tag then you have to really consider do i want a player who can not handle a tag. Opposition at times also comes into play as well as some players are really held by some teams but score great against others.  Position also comes into play as well.

So you can see really hard to discern but in all instances GWYG,

I love to "rage trade". It always makes me feel better. Reversal is handy though ;D

Yeah if you've got no other trades to do, rage trade to someone with a tiny B/E, then do the reverse the next week. Make like 50-100k or so, easy money.
