Ringos Rocky Road 2016

[Asparagus]

I am considering Hartley too but am concerned looking at my team and the large number of Ess players in there!  :o
Tippa-Dea-MBrown and maybe Hartley..
Looking at your team it doesn't look like you must trade so holding may be wise.

[Ringo]

Thanks and just looking at yours as well maybe hold.  Team announcements may change things a little but leaning towards holding missing on Hartley which may be a blessing and doing 2 trades next week.

Round 4 Update:

Rd 4 Score: 2014
Rd 4 Rank: 46127
Total Rank : 46846 up 3794

No trades for the week
28 trades remaining and $20k cash.

Rd 4 Team
Def: Shaw, Bartel, Lonergan, McDonald Tip, Dea, Adams (Brown(Ess), Cutler)
Mids: Fyfe, Pendles, Ablett, Priddis, Rocky, Mitchell,  Libba, Mills, Kerridge  ( Menandue, Dunkley, Davis)
Rucks: Goldy, Gawn (Read)
Fwds: Robinson, Barlow, DeGoey, Wells,Bennedy , Papley (McArthy, Milera)

The Good: Mitchell and Fyfe (If only had the c on one of them), Continued mooing of rookies Adams (Could he be my d6/d7 with DPP on the cards if he maintains form). McDonald-Tip, Dea, Brown, Mills and to a lesser extent Bennedy. Cutler reaching my expectations. Rucks continue to do well, Goldy as captain. Wells continues to impress and fingers crossed remains injury free so he can fill F5/6,
The Average: Bartel and Barlow continuing to show some form. Kerridge maintaining his average. Ablett and Pendles. Libba maintaining his strong showing. DeGoey and Robinson although degoey still a watch for upgrade in due course.
The Bad: Priddis a late withdrawal, Papley, Menadue, Milera, Shaw, Lonergan, Davis.  Cutler on bench with his 97.

Issues:
Papley B/E 62; Milera B/E 61, Menandue B/E 52 and Davis B/E 17 Dunkley and McCarthy both have negative B/E and should get more games so retaining.
Lonergan really struggling, DeGoey although has an achievable B/e and Cutler still on watch despite his 97.

What to do this week.
Need to build cash so
Papley to Byrne Jones via DPP

At a loss for next trade do I do Lonergan down to Byrne or Ruggles as LOnergan continues to bleed cash.  Means playing 3 of Adamas. McDonald Tipp, Dea, Byrne Jones or Byrne/Ruggles each week.  However the way they are scoring should be OK till ready to milk.

Do not see any rookie forwards or mids available this week to downgrade Menadue or Milera.

Edit - Could go a week early and do Milera to Sumner but not convinced on him.

Trading papley to Byrne Jones and Lonergan to Byrne leaves me a cash kitty of $352k to deal with Barlow, Bartel or DeGoey unless they perform.

[Asparagus]

You could use trade #2 to go Lonergan > Biggs or Suckling. With JJ gone now they may score even better.

I am in a similar boat except I have JJ to deal with.

Thinking Pap to DBJ and JJ to Rance. (have a look if you get time)

[jeesh]

Might as well trade Milera seeing he has done a quad mate

[sammy123]

could you upgrade milera?

[Ringo]

Not a lot of optiuns to upgrade Milera to with only 112K.

These are options as I see them for trade 2.
a) Milera to Byrne/Ruggles via Brown DPP leaving me $200k for upgrades.
b) Lonergan to Byrne/Ruggles leaving me $350k
c) Lonergan to Weitering leaving me with $139k - Missed a bit of the cash rise but still estimated to go up a further $100k before byes
d) Uprade Lonergan to Biggs, Pittard, Savage, Yeo and Birchall  -

With Milera not named he will not lose any value so unless McCarthy not named Option a will not be done.

Tossing up between b and d with Biggs the preferred as he is averaging 95 at the moment and think with Johannisen may be the one to benefit further.

[js19]

Milera to Menzel? If he kicked a bit straighter on the weekend he'd be looking at a couple of 90s. Could be a decent cow

Round 5 Update:

Rd 5 Score: 2066
Rd 4 Rank: 46296
Total Rank : 44600 up 1886

Trades for Week - Milera to Byrne Jones and Jesses Lonergan to Ruggles
26 trades remaining and $364k cash.

Rd 4 Team:
Def: Shaw, Bartel, Lonergan, Dea, Adams, Cutler (Brown(Ess), Ruggles )
Mids: Fyfe, Pendles, Ablett, Priddis, Rocky, Mitchell,  Libba, Mills, Kerridge  ( Menandue, Dunkley, Davis)
Rucks: Goldy, Gawn (Read)
Fwds: Robinson, Barlow, DeGoey, Wells, Bennedy , McDonald Tip  (McArthy, Papley)

The Good: Rucks outstanding (About the only thing I got right this year), Papley (Glad Milera forced my trade  ;) ) Shaw, Adams, Byrne-Jones, Pendles, Kerridge, Mills, Barlow, DeGoey
The Average Adams, Ablett, Libba, Wells, Robinson, McDonald-Tip.
The Bad and Ugly Sam Mitchell, Bartel, Priddis, Bennedy, Fyfe also c and Cutler (was looking good before injury) and the big one Papley on bench  >:(

So with Fyfe ($625k) definitely LTI and he will have to be traded:
So to who:
Options:
Dangerfield (650k) B/e 145
Hannerbery (620k) B/e 120
Jelwood (579k) B/e 95

At the moment thinking Fyfe to Danger and depending on medical report on Cutler
Cutler to Simpson/Gibson not real keen as defenders so up and down and rookies scoring just as well so could hol dCutler on bench and downgrade to Lee next 2 weeks depending on teams
Bennedy to Jelwood who has bottomed out and starting to rise. Giving me six prem mids + Libba and Mills. Kerridge as M8 Still leaves me 50k as well  (20k short of Menadue to Selwood but Menandue forward and downgrade to Cox/Smith in a fortnight as well.)

That are the plans at the moment but as we know team announcements change decisions.
Fyfe to Danger
Bennedy to Selwood.

[sammy123]

scored about 20 more points than me and i dropped 2000 places :(.

trades sound solid ringo

[Capper]

Do you think Dea will make his 67 BE? Im trading him

[Ringo]

Thanks Capper another option which I had not seen.  Will probably do Dea to selwood via DPP's and leaves me $68k in the bank.

Downgrades over the next couple of weeks Dea, Menadue, Davis and upgrade Cutler.

[SilverLion]

I like the Fyfe to Danger and Bennedy to Selwood trades, I'm thinking those two should be the highest priority for you right now. Menadue and Dea not far away. Davis I think still has a little while to go, he wasn't omitted this week but instead was listed as rested, so I'm thinking he will be a bit like McCarthy in that sense.

Other possible options instead of Jelwood: R. Gray, Titchell, Treloar, Ward. But really, theres nothing wrong with Selwood, its all personal preference.
