If you have an injury prone ruck like Mumford and NicNat, that's where the Bellchambers pick will be handy. But yeah, certainly wait for more information tomorrow etc..

[david17]

do we think money in the bank is important and how much should we have after we do our side

[david17]

well Essendon got off now to decide to keep Belly as back up and hopefully he can score 80+ every week

[david17]

well one change already since Lambert name emg i'll bring Lamb in for now and wait and see rest of teams tomorrow

[Bully]

If Brayshaw is named I would pick him over Newton, I think he has far greater upside.

[david17]

I think trades are so important to have and i dont really wanna burn trades early in the season, but also picking players who are gonna make money are also important to have so you can upgrade later down the road to get those prems. This is my team atm not sure what to do atm im really thinking about holding and not trading.

B: SIMPSON, MCINTOSH, SHAW, SAAD, LUMUMBA, NEWNES (BROWN, GOODES)

C: FYFE, JPK, PENDLES, ABLETT, YOLMEN, VANDENBERG, HEENEY, CRIPPS (ANDERSON, MILLER, LAMBERT)

FOLL: GOLDY, MUMMY (COX)

F: GRAY, DUSTY, BARTEL, HOGAN, BELLY, SALEM (CLARK, LONIE)

21K left over i guess my problems might be GOODES, ABLETT, CRIPPS. Ablett gonna drop heaps so could get him at a later stage but i hate trading prems out GOODES who knows if his gonna be in the Dogs best 22 i would like him to get another crack and start on the ground and CRIPPS was a late out not sure whats really going on with him

Very similar situation to you mate. I'm backing Ablett to still be a top 3 mid and hence most teams will need him come years end anyway - he stays.

Goodes was my stepping stone to a premium but with a BE of 65, he just isn't going to generate that much cash meanwhile Oxley is projected to rise $64,000. I'm making sure I don't miss out on that.

Cripps --> NVB is a solid correction trade. I doubt Cripps will even get picked this weekend.

[colmullet]

I'd be looking to turn Lambert into NVB before Cripps, i guess it depends on teams this week though but Cripps has showed far more scoring ability and vest aversion than Lambert

Yeah that's a solid point. Problem is, Lambert is cheap as chips whereas Cripps is 200k almost being wasted.

[Doggoneit]

My 2 cents worth

The only cash cow you don't have is Oxley - that I can see (maybe NVB is the other one)

I would go Goodes > Oxley before Oxley has a price rise.

that will leave you about $140k

none of your other rookies will lose cash so its not critical to move them on yet and no point moving a non-performer to just any rookie, wait until another cow emerges.
Having said that you could go Miller > NVB

your other big issue looks like GAJ - I would suggest GAJ > Sloane  (if you are going to trade him out)

[david17]

yeah Goodes to Oxley would free up alot of cash just deciding is it worth going Cripps to NVB guess wait and see for teams and see if Cripps is named other wise i cant see me doing anything else i just cant trade Ablett out now and bringing him back in later
