Round 8 Trades

[Holz]

I was going Mills to Racca and Menadue to Dmart/Gunny

but im not convinced Adams has a one week injury.

now looking at Menadue to Racca and Adams to Mcveigh/Dochers

or Mills to Racca and Adams to Boyd

would love some advice.

Are both of your def bench rookies playing?

Mine are, so I will hang onto Adams for now and use him to loophole them

I have no idea what trades I am doing this week - will wait til Thu teams because I need a rookie downgrade option. I know there is Keays, but I would really prefer a def/fwd downgrade option

yeah got ruggles and byrne on the bench,

i guess i can see how ruggles goes on Friday night if he goes 70+ then ill be happy to play him. If not then ill have to play Byrne.

Mills to keays
And Adams to a premium defender either Simpson or rance.
Does anyone have break evens for rance or Simpson

Agree with Holz, Adams may only miss one, but if he were to miss two or more, would you keep him?

With Laird already riding the pine, I am sorely tempted to cash him in, after awarding him a good service medal of course, and maybe getting Selwood and Petracca.

Lucky he plays late so you can loophole your bench to see if you can afford to hold off

E.g. if Ruggles scores 70+ I'll probably take that and see how Adams' injury plays out.

Assuming its 1-3 weeks Adams would make a good D6 come year's end. Not to mention the time off will help refreshen him up. A broken finger won't affect his training load

[tor01doc]

I know but getting Selwood now is tempting.

Still am aiming for a better D6 than Adams.

Shaw
Laird
Bartel got these 3

Rance
Simmo
Docherty
McVeigh
Boyd

Three of this group is my aim.

[batt]

McCarthy -> Petracca.

Pending Ruggles score on Friday night, will either be Mills -> Docherty or -> Lynch.

Because screw this season lol.

Because screw this and every season lol.

;D

Mills - Petracca is locked in.

Do I go Davis - Keays? Seems like a waste since I only make like 70k. Tempted to leave Davis at M11.
or
Adams - Simpson/McVeigh? Already have Laird on the bench and don't want to play both Brown and Hartley.

I have the same dilemma.  looks like ill have to pass on Keays, and get Macpherson the week after
Mills - Petracca
Weitering - Boyd

Is Boyd worth the money?  Or is it worth considering Rance, Simpson, McVeigh?

[Nige]

At this stage I'll probably go go Mills -> Keays at the very least which leaves me with 20 trades left so I could potentially hold my second this week.

Happy to bench Adams and wait for his return, but I do already have Laird on the bench and therefore no def emg.

Alternatively, I could Adams -> Rance, which as a Tiges man, is tempting.

[ants]

cant decide whether to go adams to docherty or oliver to dusty! i feel its dusty now or never as deledio is set to drop and could sway me into getting him over dusty

I'd grab Rance for the points, the value and the def bench cover.

Boyd not worth it given likely management of him and options with Simmo and McViegh available.  McVeigh good chance to avg 100+ for rest of year.




Have similar issue with Keays.   Mccarthy > Petracca locked in.   
Now I need to trade Mills and can do fwd, mid and def.          Only need one more to finish def,  have shaw, simmo, laird, simpson, bartel.       Considering McVeigh, Gibson, B Smith,  KK.    Not in any rush.  McV should lose cash next week.


Mids,  Need 3,    from Ward, Priddis, Pendles, Zaha, Gray.       Gray and Priddis will be great value next week or 2 so think I should wait.   


Fwds,   Have Dusty, Zerret, Hall, Wells and need two more.    Considering Lids, Dahl, Hoff, Zorko.     


370K in Bank.   So thinking hold off on mids and bring in Zorko this week into my  mids.   Alternative is to grab McPherson and bank another 220K for double upgrade following week.     Will cover adams with Tippa or Brown.  Have Laird on pine so no bench coverage in mids.   


Priddis or Zorko or McPherson?         Feedback - how important is Keays likely to be?  With Rocky out he should get a decent run.   Still have Davis, Hewett on mid bench and have to upgrade or downgrade them at some stage.   Not sure if I can afford to miss him and put off upgrade by a week.  Thoughts?

[Ringo]

Keays was playing as a half forward last weekend and think his score was 0.4 and one oob so could have had a much higher score if he had kicked straight,

Not sure whether the selectors will leave him there for next week and recall Matthieson who has had 2 games in the NEAFL (but unfortunately reserves had the bye last week).  Keays is only predicted to rise by 50k this week and a further $67k over the next 3 weeks. If wanting some cash then maybe a sound move but may mean you miss a fallen prem like Dusty.

Time to also start watching byes as well.  Got a bit of a shock when I seen only 8 of my keepers playing in Rd 15 so that is why I am probably going Dusty or Dahl over Zorko.

McPherson is not on the boil until next week so you can hold off on him.  I think he has taken Davis's place but with Sextons injury Davis may get a reprieve.

Hope some of this helps.
