AXV: OFFICIAL TRADE THREAD (2015/16)

[nas]

Bangladesh give: Cyril Rioli + Jimmy Toumpas
UAE give: David Zaharakis + Shaun Grigg

Reasoning: Looking to bolster my midfield but have to do it at the expense of my best forward and Toumpas who could be handy at a new club. UAE had plenty of midfield depth and wanted to cash it in for a starting forward which they have got in Cyril.

nas to confirm.

Confirm.

Ada has more depth in midfield, & with Cyril adds to the Tigers Forwards as well. Toumpas is the unknown but new club could be the turning point.

Nice competitive trade here with two first round draft picks going for an old gun

Tibetan Llamas: Liam Duggan + Dom Sheed
                       for
Turkish Gazelles: Jobe Watson + Brady Gray

This will hurt after 2days decision.  :(

I already thought this was a horror trade but it's now looking like the worst trade ever. Two future guns already showing great signs for Brady Grey who'll be lucky to play a game this season. Pretty sure Watson will retire after this verdict.

Bangladesh give: Shaun Grigg
Mongolia give: Charlie Dixon

Reasoning: Was looking for another forward to replace Cyril, hoping Dixon will go alright at the Power!

Toga/fanTCfool to confirm.

Toga/fanTCfool to confirm.

Confirmed!

With Montagna gaining Forward status, we can afford to give up Dixon from the Forward line. Grigg effectively replaces Montagna in the Midfield.

Some injury clouds surrounding Dixon were a little concerning, and we felt safer with Grigg than Dixon, despite the potential to put up some big scores.

Talking to BB about these trades guys so we should have an update later today/tomorrow for you

[BB67th]

UAE Tigers Trade:  Eric Hipwood.
                 for
Hong Kong Trade: Karl Amon.

nrich to confirm.

Couple of Youngster trading between teams with Hipwood being a good chance to debut, & K Amon a chance to add to his 7 games.

Confirm.

BLOCKED
Reasoning: Amon was a pick 58 in the rookie draft a few years back, and has only played a handful of games in the last year for an average of around 60. In our view he definitely isn't worth of a late first round pick.

Bangladesh give: Lewis Taylor + Sam Mayes + Mitch Hallahan
Hong Kong give: Jack Redden + Jarrod Pickett + Daniel Howe

Reasoning: Giving up some quality youth here in order to land a more proven midfielder in Reddo.

Nrich to confirm.

Confirm. Ada wants a more proven player and I'm short on depth, so I et some young guns and he gets the traitor. Lions players as well  :-*

APPROVED
Reasoning: Redden is a high scoring mid, averaging a tick under 130, and being a high tackling player can be a real premium in this game, making his worth above Taylor, who is a consistent forward. Mayes and Hallahan are both worth quite a bit more than Pickett and Howe, making this trade even enough to pass.

Bangladesh give: Cyril Rioli + Jimmy Toumpas
UAE give: David Zaharakis + Shaun Grigg

Reasoning: Looking to bolster my midfield but have to do it at the expense of my best forward and Toumpas who could be handy at a new club. UAE had plenty of midfield depth and wanted to cash it in for a starting forward which they have got in Cyril.

nas to confirm.

Confirm.

Ada has more depth in midfield, & with Cyril adds to the Tigers Forwards as well. Toumpas is the unknown but new club could be the turning point.

APPROVED
Reasoning: Zaharakis and Rioli have similar scoring power, but with Rioli being a forward, and seemingly over some of his injury worries, so is worth more. Grigg is a proven midfielder, and while Toumpas has potential at a new club, the gap between these two makes this trade fairly even.

Bangladesh give: Shaun Grigg
Mongolia give: Charlie Dixon

Reasoning: Was looking for another forward to replace Cyril, hoping Dixon will go alright at the Power!

Toga/fanTCfool to confirm.

Confirmed!

With Montagna gaining Forward status, we can afford to give up Dixon from the Forward line. Grigg effectively replaces Montagna in the Midfield.

Some injury clouds surrounding Dixon were a little concerning, and we felt safer with Grigg than Dixon, despite the potential to put up some big scores.

APPROVED
Reasoning: Two players with good scoring potential and outputs here. Dixon has a higher ceiling and is a forward, yet does have his injury concerns, so this trade can pass.

Far out, looks like I'll be sticking with Amon.

Quick and easy trade here between the Dolphins and the HeadHunters

Taiwan gives: Tom Campbell + Kayne Turner

Papua New Guinea gives: Andrew Phillips + Gorringe

*Note both Turner and Gorringe are on rookie lists so this should work out.

Rusty to confirm

My reasoning is pretty straightforward. This deal gives me the whole Carlton ruckline with Kreuzer, Wood, Phillips and Gorringe. So I'm covered if Kreuzer goes down.

I'm giving back Campbell as PNG are losing two rucks and although I really rate Turner I have a lot of other forwards so I'm happy to give him up for some ruck security.

Confirmed

Really like Turner as a prospect and by getting Campbell in the deal we still keep some depth to our rucks whilst giving up Phillips and Gorringe.

Trade Announcement

Bangkok Crabs  give Joe Daniher

UAE Tigers  give Jarrod Harbrow

With Hibberd being out for a year we were badly in need of a replacement in defence, Harbrow fits the bill perfectly. While we didn't really want to lose Daniher and are scared of his potential, he was someone we could mange without at this stage.

Just wondering if these last few trades have been missed..........and what the time-frame on them being processed might be?

Ah sorry man, looks like we've missed these with a few major changes being talked about at the moment. We should have an update for you by the weekend

Sorry mate, they got a little lost in everything that's been going on in the competition over the last couple of weeks, I'll get onto it shortly.

APPROVED

Reasoning: Fairly straightforward trade here with some fringe/young talent being traded to help fill in some positional needs.

Confirm

Daniher adds more depth to our Forward line.

APPROVED

Reasoning: Harbrow has a higher scoring output of about 10-15 points over the last season, but is much the senior to Daniher, who should improve as he develops as a key forward.
