Of course Ablett is only another recurring shoulder injury away from not playing much footy next season. He will be wearing a target on it. So fair risk being taken by Calgary as well.

Meh, Ablett is cooked. Good call by LF to flick him while hes still carrying value.

Cooked? :o
Highest score this year: GAJ 176
Don't under estimate possibly the best player the game has ever seen.

Oh sure, he can still score. Just not sure how much help he will be when he only gets through a handful of games. Massive question marks over his body imo.

LF

Yeah we know he is likely still a DT beast but how many games will he play?
Could play all next season,none or just another handful?
Is his body going to be right?
We did ok without him this year as well until others got injured,hopefully we fixed this now.
But the decision to trade him to anyone/RG was one we mulled on for a couple of weeks.

In the end, I definitely think LF could have got more, but overall it isn't too bad.

Yeah probably but it's fine the unknown with him does weigh it out

Football Factory

Im not talking about the fairness of the trade OR THE REASONING BEHIND LF TRADING HIM .. I think its a fair trade.

I don't have a crystal ball so I cant tell but with GAJ at Clagary with the fire power he already has ... almost averaged 2000 for the finals  :o then I cant really see anyone challenging him for the title/eliminator

Only Griff has ever won the the Eliminator and he won the flag this year .. and now he adds GAJ.

Any other team team yeah but Calgary ? ... severly effects the League imo .. and these are the sorts of trades that should be seriously looked at when they arise.

Not going to argue about anymore and like I say it might not happen ? but if this is how it looks in the future don't be blaming me.

Eliminator

2014: Griff

2016: Griff
2017: Griff
2018: Griff

I think we're overrating RG, I see deficiencies in his side. He can definitely be beaten.

I still reckon Hawaii and Arizona are stronger teams.

But time will tell haha  :P

Ask GB how I went against Springfield this year... My side at a high is very good but I had some awful scores during the season

There are deficiencies totally agree .. but when you add GAJ to that then his deficiencies decrease .. Having the best scoring players in the league as your Captain and Vice are a big part of winning. Calgary would have been the last club I would trade Ablett to if I had him.

Even with these sorts of players you can still lose that's Fantasy football for you .. but RG becomes favourite to win for a while don't you think ?

Yep for sure

Ablett was clearly put up for trade,if people wanted him they could have asked,nobody really did until RG did.
Why should we be restricted with who we want to trade out and to who?
The idea of these comps is to build a team,manage the list through drafting and trading,I am managing our list RG his.



Football Factory

Just do it .. don't care .. don't want to look silly if RG's team is shi.te next year and everyone jumps on my back about it.

R.Griffen

I got picks I didn't need and I thought while I am at a high I might as well not end up like Freo and end up short

I have Brayshaw, Adams, Toumpas, De Goey, Pick 1, Dunstan and Swallow already which is my core midfield for the future. So my team won't be effected too much by losing 2 draft picks

Football Factory

With Ablett Roswell was a challenger .. without him im not sure. Probably makes Ele happy  :-X   Hawaii vs Calgary
