Ringos Rocky Road 2016

[Ringo]

So these are the trade options as I see them:

Have some options I am considering:

1) Byrne-Jones to Brand and Brown to Docherty
2) Byrne Jones - Brand and Papley to Franklin
3) Kerridge to MacPherson and either DBJ/Brown to Docherty or Papley to Franklin.
4) Papley to MacPherson and DBJ to Docherty
5) Just one downgrade Papley to McPherson
or Double downgrades
6) Papley to Crocker and DBJ/Brown to Brand
7) Papley to Crocker and Davis to MacPherson.

and if Barlow not named thinking of a sideways trade of him to Zorko both with 15 round byes so bye structure not effected,

And PB have exactly the same ratings as you have given me.

Thursday night teams will decide and will have to make decision then including Captain as I may be going bush for the weekend and will be out of internet coverage.

[Ringo]

So with the carnage am going these trades:

Papley to Brand and Adams to Docherty leaving this team



best I could do with no emergencies forward. barlow a late inclusion would help.

[geoffmack]

No thought of trading Barlow or Wells?

Can u afford Barlow and Paps to Doch n a fwd premo?

[Ringo]

Had a look at that Geoff and was a little bit short of cash for Pap to Dochers and Barlow to Tags or Zorko. So will look at Barlow next week after a downgrade.

Bummer   :-\

[Capper]

I have actually started barlow encase he is a late inclusion as he will outscore Menadue

[Ringo]

Not a bad idea - Will switch Kerridge and Menadue and start Barlow on field with Menadue emergency.  Davis will be mid emergency.

Yeah I've done the same

[geoffmack]

Wish it was that easy for me, unfortunately I have 3 outs up fwd.  :'(

Round 9 Update:

Rd 9 Score: 2340 (My Highest for the year)
Rd 9 Rank: 10874
Total Rank : 18825 up 7174
Total Points: 19177
Lowest Rank: 70719 Rd 2

Trades for Week - Papley to Brand and Adams to Docherty

Rd 9 Starting Team:
Def: Shaw, Bartel, Simpson, Docherty , McDonald Tip, Byrne-Jones (Brand, Ruggles )
Mids: Dangerfield, Pendles, Wells, Priddis, Selwood, Sam  Mitchell, Libba, J Smith  (Ablett, Dunkley, Davis)
Rucks: Goldy, Gawn (Read)
Fwds: Robinson, Martin, DeGoey, M Brown, Kerridge , Petraca (Menadue, Barlow )
Wells in mids as C and to take Davi's score over Menadue.

The Good Shaw, Docherty, Simpson, McDonald Tipp, Pendles, Priddis, Goldy, Dusty, Petracca, Kerridge
The Average Bartel, Ruggles, Libba, J Smith, Davis, GeGoey, M Brown, Brand, Robbo
The Bad DBJ, Danger, Jelwood, Mitchell, Gawn, Menadue.  The real bad not sticking with gut and leaving C on Shaw after Pendles 140.  Not alone in that though.

What to do this week.
Will wait till I see who is named (Ablett, Wells, Barlow)
DBJ real issue with high B/e and Menadue the only other who may not get his B/e of 56,

Would like Hopper but hard to get him without losing DPP. So will need to decide later. Not really happy with Williams JS to go DBJ to Williams.
If Barlow does not play then thinking Barlow to Tippett - Happy to have Tippett sit at F6/F7.
With DBJ possibly out with injury may even hold.

[Ringo]

With Barlow, Wells and Ablett all playing may hold on trading.  Hopper a bit expensive and concerned on Williams JS. The 31 will roll out of DBY rolling average this week as well so he should start to make cash again and ok to sit till other options occur.

Not a bad option, given the circumstances. If I could keep my finger off the trade button, i'd do the same!

[geoffmack]

What's ur cash??

U happy with Gawn? Be 240. Possible swap to. Nic Nat? Luxury trade but could pay off.

Other than that if all ur guys play no real need to trade.

[Capper]

How long are you holding on to Brown and walla??

Another option is trade Brown out, move Walla fwd and trade in Docherty

[Ringo]

Got Docherty.  Keeping an eye on all my rookies for next week.

Think Gawn will be bounce back surely his early form were not flash in the pan stuff.  Giving him another week or two to see if he turns around then the trade to Nic Nat may be considered.

B/e Walla 45 averaging 75 so no need just yet
DBJ B/e 105 averaging 75 (31 Rolls out of averages after this week and a 75 average still ok for a couple of weeks.)
Ruggles B/e 30 avering 50 still cash to make
Brand B/E 0 averaging 46 still cash to make
Kerridge B/E 57 averaging 85 so still cash to be made.
Josh Smith B/e 3 Average 73 so still a fair bit of cash to make
Davis B/e 19 Average 51 so still small amount of cash to make.
Menadue B/E 56 Average 50 ( Possibly keeping him as he is scoring around average and B/e so will not fluctuate and handy DPP for byes.
M Brown B/e 75 Av 62 Up and down but think can still make cash.
C Petracca do i need to elaborate here with a current B/e of -19

DeGoey and Libba are also possibly to be upgraded if enough trades left so treading warily at the moment.
