Who to keep. Brand or Lee?

[Judd Magic]

Going to be trading one of the above to Hammelmann next week so I can move Adams up to my backline.

Which one do you guys recommend I keep at D8 for the rest of the year out of Brand and Lee?

Both are pretty useless IMO and wont get many more games. Lee I think has more Sunday games so maybe he is useful for loopholing with Adams (D6) and Collins (D7) I'd get more cash back though if I traded Brand > Hammelmann.

What does everyone think?

[King_Robbo]

I think Brand will get a few games as the Hawks will rest players like Frawley Gibbo etc. he was playing well in the first place before he was dropped. Lee is an absolute spud, hence why he was struggling to get a game and st kilda were preferring to play without key defenders as opposed to giving him a game

Cheers for the response K_R.

Yeah unfortunately I agree with you in regards to Lee.  :-[

Really thought Lee would have flourished if given a proper run at it but just doesn't look up to it ATM.

Bit harsh on Lee - he copped a knock to his knee hence his last poor score and is out injured atm

First 2 scores were 60 odd and 70 odd which is better than Brand

Just need to wait and see how long Lee will be out for

Fisher, etc will be coming back soon though RD.

Probably spells the end of Lee getting any more games now.  :-\

I dare say Hammelmans JS would be just as dodgy as these two

Seems like a waste of a trade to grab him for one of these two as it generates flower all cash

I get that it opens up DPP for Adams, but you want to be making at least 100k of a trade at least, so you might need to trade Brand

Good point RD.

It does seem that trading Lee means getting bugger all cash.

I only need one more premo defender (Adams was just going to be a temp D6 placeholder)

Ideally I would like to upgrade Adams to Bartel but Adams is stuck on my forward bench ATM.  :-\

[fanTCfool]

The Hawks didn't even lose a defender this week and Brand came in, he's close to Best 22 at the moment, the same can't really be said for Lee, plus he's injured.

I have the same spuds on my bench, if i had to cull one now then it would be Lee.

[Judd Magic]

I'm actually thinking of getting Uebergang in now instead of Hammelmann.

Provides me with a floating donut up back and forward.

I have 8 forwards playing next week (includes Adams) so if i trade Lee to Uebergang then I can swing Adams to D6.

Tempting.
