Round 20 trades

[jvalles69]

For me, I'm in a pickle. I've got Blakely, JPK, Danger, Darcy. I'll use next week's trades to fix anything else but, for this week, which scoring combo?

1. Ryan, Gawn, Tucker
2. Houli, Zorko/Gibbs/Dusty, Soldo
3. Houli, Young, Ryder

Tricky decision. Ryan and Tucker could go alright this week with Freo playing GC, but I think it has to be one of the options with 2 premos. I'd be leaning towards option 2 and hoping one of the big gun mids go huge.

2 > 1 > 3

Cheers. I'm thinking 2 as well but obviously depends on if Soldo is named or not. Soldo and Young both equal 50. Houli 95, Ryder 95, Gawn 95, Ryan 80 but could do more against GC, Tucker 80 but could do more against GC. Zorko/Gibbs/Dusty could get 120s but first two are tag threats.

So it's:
1. 255-300
2. 265
3. 240

2 is the best unless Ryan and Tucker smash. 1 is the highest ceiling. 3 is clearly out.

Who tags from Essendon?  Only reason I ask as I'm currently bringing in Gibbs for Danger...

Nobody, which is why he should be fine. But he has shown he's badly affected by a tag which makes him a good choice if Essendon decide to change their usual strategy. He could get tagged in other weeks though and I plan on keeping whoever I bring in.

Don't scare me like that! Bombers, Eagles, Hawks, Swans coming up, prob Hutchings next week is a risk, but I'm more concerned about a win this week.  Beams and Ablett are options, but way more risky imo, both shoulders could go at any time.  Duncan is the other player I'm considering, however Gibbs has that ceiling.

I'd pick Beams from that group tbh. Makes you some cash too, doesn't he? So you can sideways other players more easily.

This is true and is prob the top choice, however I'm scared he's going to do his shoulder again.  Most traded in player for the round, and thats the time things like this happen.  If 1000's of coaches bring him in and he goes down, basically gives me the jump in every league.  If not no big deal either.

All comes down to whether you need a POD or to go with the flow and get Beams. If you really want someone from left field, Cotchin's got a very good run home and is in some decent form. Probably only a 106-108 average from hear on out though.

Gonna stick with Gibbs and bring Gawn in to my rucks, all or nothing.

As for your's, I think I'd now back Ryan over Houli...that role at Dockers is huge looking back!

Screwed with Team announcements so only have one bench player playing.

Darcy to Griffen
JPK to Zorko (benching Danger)

Is Currie cheaper than Griff?

Only 12k cheaper so went for the more experience, Yep Currie was first thoughts but when I checked price had second thoughts at $381k was expecting much lower.

Yeah ok, thought he'd be a fair bit cheaper too.

[LaHug]

Found a better option for me. Leaves me playing Ryan, Gawn, and Cotch or Higgins. Can't toss up between Cotch and Higgins though. Both great runs home. Also considering Andrew Swallow as a huge smokey.

I like Cotch out of them.

Would you play Ryan over Tuohy, Newnes?
