raines out???

bombers123 · April 15, 2009, 03:50:58 AM

i am thinking getting rid of raines for rance before his price goes up or wait a week and get broughton. i am doing this because this is my backline is:

p. bourgoyne
c. cornes
houlihan
adcock
hurn
malceski
pentrenko
emg:
suban
raines
should i have 3 rookies in my back line and one playing or keep raines.
any thoughts??

you've kept Raines this long, why get rid of him now? That trade up your sleeve could be valuable come the second half of the year.

Biggest danger for you is if you get another injury/suspension while Burgoyne and Raines are both out. Is that where your question is leading? Definitely a risk but I'd keep Raines for now.

agree with Pweter- if you were gonna get rid of him, shoulda done it rounds ago, like i did- but now that youve kept him, keep him, will be back soon, good trade burgone out for pratt or gilbee if your really worried

ive got 82k in the bank so i got enough money for goddard should i get him or get gilbee, pratt or any other suggestions??

gilbee or pratt.- i'm more inclined towards pratt given that the WB have been playing top of their game while NM is far from it -not goddard who is on a hot streak- and his price is accordingly, another option is trying to find room for hodge

i might wait a week for hodges price to go down more and get him.
but i feel i have a disadvantage without having goddard because everyone has him and i dont and hes doing so well.

m....goddard really has only had one really good game bomber- wade it out
+ not so sure hodge (my vc) will have another bad game- Basically, the first week he played bad, second got injured, and the third scored 1oo something- - i always knew he was gonna drop in price, but still took him cos i though, meh ill be getting him anyway, might as well save a trade and get a reliable VC....

yeahh i think he wont have another bad game. but i think he will have to have a big game too stop his price go down. am i wrong?? so i will wait another week and save a little bit more cash.
