Skipworth for ?

admrap · April 22, 2009, 01:19:00 AM

please tell me which option in your opinion is the best one for the most consistent forward:

option a - robinson = hartlett & skipworth = harvey

option b - robinson = barham & skipworth = s.johnson

option c - robinson = picken & skipworth = franklin

I think the first option is better. Harvey has broken the funk as he showed against the Bombers while Hamish Hartlett is the second best young player at this point in time. (behind D Rich). not only are you getting Harvey at a cheap price but you get Hartlett who will stay in the side for a while barring injury.

Plus, Barnham and picken are battlers, they will be out of the side as soon as they play a bad game.

Buddy is a roller coaster ( I know, I've got him), i say in order, its one, two, three. hope that helps.

yer cheers. i want harlett but i dnt fink i want harvey. i can still get franklin if i get hartlett though. i want the most consistent forward who is going to get 90+ each week and out of 3 of them i dont think harvey can do that

Skipworth for Krakouer

admrap · April 22, 2009, 04:08:35 AM

i already have krakouer

If u want consistency don't get Buddy. Up and down like a yo-yo. Will reward u with some big big scores, but will also frustrate the hell out of you. Out of those 3, SJ is pretty consistent, will usually get above 85+.

i was thinking stevie johnson but want a bit of cash left over

although harlett debut was very impressive just keep in mind that Domenic Cassisi, Peter and Shaun Burgoyne are due to return to the port side in the coming weeks, im not confindent that hell be able to keep a regular spot in there team. the same can be said about collins from richmond and Barham

at the moment theres no stand out rookie with both high scoring potential and guarentee games that hasnt already gone up in price, i think youre best bet would be to just to get on either beams or Zakha for the extra 6/7k

and as for the upgrade i would be looking at Aaron Davey, Gia or Didak (both Gia and Didak might still becoming down but still will remain premium players by years end)

a little extra thought for you anyways

admrap · April 23, 2009, 01:43:55 AM

i was thinking gia but dont know, he can produce sum low scores sum games. already got didak. i have beams as my rookie. if i get zkiss i wont have enuff money to get a premium player. aaron davey is risky even tho he is everywhere he plays for melbourne and easily shut down

Whats the expectation on Harvey?

I say option 'a' with Harvey, mostly because his price is JUICY. I have no idea about his consistency though - forgot about Buddy - but last season was really solid for harvey, nothing really below 80 and heaps of big scores. If he moves back into that mode, then his price ($520k) will be worth it.

My other option is N. Riewoldt, his price is quite juicy and might drop a tad more. Hes getting stronger. thats who I'm thinking of, but I'm waiting for an arguement in favour of harvey.

Personally, I dont have Robinson - so I'm funding my Skipworth -> Harvey/Reiwoldt trade by getting out of Hill or Cheney and into someone like Barham.

BUT, I'm waiting to see what haps this weekend, plans could change - need to have a look at what two-round rookies are playing well.

admrap · April 23, 2009, 05:34:13 AM

it all depends on robinson getting dropped and if sidebottom is selected. iv heard skipworth could b out longer than a month. im tempted to trade robinson for barham and get stevie j, but also keeping harvey,franklin and davey in mind
