Swallow vs O'meara

[The Supercoach]

So I still have both (fml) and will get rid of one this week. I didn't get to see any of the Hawks game so don't know what the hell happened to O'meara but wow. So who should I cut off this week out of those two?

Genuinely thought one would come good that why I've held them both this long

Trade out both

Trade out both

Is there a downgrade option for one of them?

Currently one will go to Pendles, and I will downgrade a fwd or def rookie to get the cash to afford that

[RaisyDaisy]

Surely you have a forward or def rookie who can swing into mids?

Swallow OUT
Fwd rookie to mids, Parsons/Black IN
JOM to Pendles

Or similar

What does your forward line look like? You could trade out both JOM and Swallow, bring in Pendles, and sub a forward rookie or premo into your midfield to get someone like Black or Parsons

If only one goes it has to be JOM. I'd be surprised if he is even named this week. They may even give him 2 or 3 weeks off. He looked as bad as a footballer can look against the Sainters. Swallow looks at least capable of tonning up. Having said that JOM should ton up no problem this week then yeah?

[Hawka]

JOM
This just isnt gonna be the year he does much, Hawks just want a full season (18ish games) i think

We're all geniuses now. At least I only went one of them. Potato isle for both.

Thank god I didn't trade out O'Meara to Swallow and went with Bont instead.  8)

OK looks like both have concerns for SC if you have kept them

Happy to keep Swallow use him as M8 whenever he plays until fully upgraded midfield. He will also be handy during the byes if not rested and I don't care if he misses the odd game.  In fact it might help him pump out higher scores when he does play. He will make well over $100k and pump out some 100's along the way, so I am happy to hold onto him for a while. With all the spud rookies, he is definitely a keeper for now.  Btw, I got Swallow in for JOM a while back and so far so good.

Swallow has a BE of 45, which he should at least get, with the possibility of doubling that and making more cash. If you have to choose between 2 players, one playing with an achievable BE, and the other not playing, dump the one not playing IMO.

+1

Copped some flack for not going Swallow but I wasn't trading on injured player to another. I make some silly moves sometimes but that ain't one of them!

[Hawka]

Atleast we know Swallow's role, JOM will miss just as many games and we have no idea where he fits into the Hawks structure yet
