AaronKirk's SC Diary 2015

AaronKirk · July 23, 2015, 09:31:01 PM

I only have 3 trades left and 25,400. Scored 2535 last week and currently ranked 342nd overall

Any suggestions for trades this week? My inclination is to hold.

I would like to bring the little champ in, but I don't see how I would be able to do it.

Here is my side

Def: Shaw, Gibson, B.Murphy, Hodge, Hibberd,B.Smith (A.Pearce, J.Hamling)

Mid: N.Fyfe, S.Pendlebury, P.Dangerfield, C.Ward, J.Kennedy, R.Gray, O.Wines, J.Selwood (J.Lewis, B.Stretch, E.Kavanagh)

Ruck: T.Goldstein, N.Naitanui (T.Read)

Fwd: D.Martin, D.Swan, B.Goddard, J.Ziebell, L.Franklin, B.Deledio (J.Steele, K.Lambert)

How are you feeling about Brodie Smith?

Kelly for Smith?

Gaz looks out of reach. Goldy to jacobs, selwood to gaz? Best I could think of and even I dont like it. Would boost your ppg up but probably less than getting James Kelly.

I'd rather get a kick to the pills then trade Smith into my side if I had the chance again.

I don't mind the Smith to Kelly option, but I probably will hold.

I'd hold your trades. Not much you can really do tbh since the rookies haven't generated enough cash. Guess you can get Ablett next season :)

I'd eye off Lewis to Knights and Selwood/Wines to Ablett at some stage, with last trade saved for the Smith upgrade

You have a sound side apart from Smith and the ability to switch a prem between fwd and mid. hard decision each week for you who to bench.

Your team is strong enough to hold to finals so I would sit and then in finals luxury trade even it means trading to a minimum value rook who may not be playing for cash to allow 2 upgrades with final trades.

Smith to Kelly looks a sound move, 20 points gained right there. Don't know how you can get Gaz unfortunately, might have to hope and pray he doesn't pull in too many monster scores.

NickyBoy · July 24, 2015, 04:34:08 PM

You might have to start doing some black magic to stop Gaz. Grab out that voodoo doll and start pinning that shoulder of his.

AaronKirk · July 24, 2015, 11:36:54 PM

I'm just going to hold trades for now.

If Smith doesn't lift soon he will probably end up becoming Kelly

NickyBoy · July 26, 2015, 02:30:44 PM

You're so lucky you couldn't afford Gaz. A blessing in disguise

AaronKirk · July 26, 2015, 04:43:08 PM

I bought in Lewis 2 weeks ago instead and have got a 96 and 150

Cannot complain.

Was looking to bring him in but there were no realistic options.
