Round 5 Trades

[jvalles69]

Ok I think I'm settled with my trades...

Hibberd and SPP -> Spencer and Bont.  Big uprade, my forward line looks better and a ruckman who will make me cash and be more than just a heartbeat...Roughy lives to fight another day, just. Time to turn it on you big ranga!

Cannot understand people getting Matera

X to Matera, make 100k and then Matera to Prem. Using 2 trades to make 100k? Just wait a little longer and use 1 trade to upgrade direct to a prem

Agree here RD. Yes he will make cash but will cost u two trades and not worth it imo. Short term gain for long term pain?? His two scores have come against Hawks and Blues. The two teams who will most likely be bottom 4 this year given their current form. So unless he scores well consistently against the top sides, I'll give him a miss as don't see him as being a keeper.

Its not 2 trades its 1

As you have to do X to Prem regardless.

In saying that dont think its worth it but rookies arent making cash

I used 2 trades to nab 140k

Stranadica to Preuss to Stanadica.

It got me 111 points by saving a donut aswell.

I hate getting rookies in that are not on the bubble and the only one is Williamson who I don't really want so I am left with the choice of doing no trades and running with Pickett on field and no cover in the FWD's or getting rid of Taranto for first gamer Poison .... what a shower choice  :-\ even doing a double trade SPP>Fisher and Taranto only gives me $442K not enough for a decent FWD

[billnats]

Thinking about bringing a premo mid in for Taranto... can afford any of Pendles, Bont, Sloane. Not sure which way to go

I'm going a week early on Fisher.  I'm currently going to loophole him instead of SPP. 

Roughy -> Fisher (via Pickett)
Z Jones -> Rocky (via Adams)

Don't see enough forward supply for Rough to make it as a premo.  Don't see a good enough role for Jones to make it as a premo.

Also looking back on SPP's scores and realising he doesn't really have great scoring potential.  Just hope for a blip in the radar for a big price jump.

good trades cash cow and a superprem.   Team will look much better.

[Jugganauts]

Thoughts on going Jobe Watson to Rocky?

[HappyDEZ]

Thoughts on Roughy -> Fisher
                   SPP -> Pendles

With the Pendles achilles mystery I would pick Rocky or Bont ahead of him at this stage (if you don't already have both) but all 3 should be top 8 SC MIDS you would think.

[Jimmykidd]

Is it worth trading omeara to williamson via McGrath? Or wait for fisher next week. Could also get fisher next week for another rookie like taranto/spp  if I grab Williamson now

Please explain to ne how you are going to turn JOM into a Prem with one trade.....

Downgrading a rookie who has made money  to another rookie on the bubble who will make money then using that cash to upgrade JOM with a second trade is much more efficient than using 2 trades to get in and then upgrade Matera

You use two trades but bring in a cash cow and upgrade to get a prem, as opposed to using 2 trades on one player, only getting you the prem but not the cash cow

Matera will be lucky to make 100k

[Slightly01]

Totally agree with you in theory, however the way this year is panning out, with most of us having 2-3 bench players either not playing, or not scoring, some out of the box thinking will be required to get anywhere near full prem imo.
JOM-Matera-Prem is absolutely doable.
If have to trade 4 of my rooks to get one prem in atm
