Round 3 Trades

[B.]

Uncertain on what options to take

1. Hibberd- Bonner + 335k
2. Hibberd - Simpson (No Bonner)
and
3. ZGL- L.Murphy (via Sicily)
4. Naughton- L.Murphy

Or no trades on one or either fronts

[no eye deer]

I've got two more options and what to do.

Option 1: Naughton to Bonner (7.6k in the Bank)
Option 2: Brayshaw to Bonner (via Finlayson) (About 66k in the bank)

Option 1 is the better options terms as points but Option 2 will leave me with a lot of cash to due another trade if needed. Which option is better?

Option one I reckon. Freo have faith in Brayshaw and he has a better scoring role than Noughton. I think he will come good. Only needs a couple of good scores to start accumulating cash and JS great.

Are Brayshaw and Naughton both on the bench?
Who moves to the bench if that is the case?
How does it affect your on field team?
Obviously you would want Bonner and Finlayson both on field so these questions help the decision in regards to fielding the best team possible.

Hibbered and Dow to Fisher and Coniglio or Heater.

Hibbered no longer taking kick outs and the inclusion of lever seems to be taking away a couple of touches that is probably the difference between a 75 and a 90 odd. Dow might get a 60 or so here and there but not sure if he'll be a great cash cow.

Fisher has put on a bit of size and is a very smart and damaging player who loves to tackle. Coniglio pumped out two 120+ and now no scully for a while probably helps him. Or Shaw who looks to be getting more of the ball out of the backline again.

Are these good trades or am I chasing points and wasting trades.

Still so torn about Bont...if Dogs keep playing like this he will be rubbish.  I'm tempted to burn a trade on someone who will net me the most cash whilst scoring well, then trade that person onto Danger when he's peaked.  I'd be holding trades otherwise, but being well ranked I feel like I need to make a ballsy move early.  Options are Taranto for the biggest cash grab, or go to Cripps/Jelwood for the price rise and solid scoring.  Does anyone think Jelwood or Cripps can be keepers?   I could then get Danger later, just feel Bont is gonna burn me and it will be a case of shoulda, woulda, coulda.  :-\

jv,  taranto move could pay off.   jelwood has surprised me ccripps still has improvement in him.   both could be m7/8 options,    how much will you lose waiting on danger?    i dumped bont this week as I feel he has too many sub 90 scores and this is not likely to change unless he is full time mid. 

[GoLions]

Probably hold my trades this week I reckon

Alternatively, Langdon to Ryan

Head says don't use any trades, gut says get rid of Bont.  The smart move isn't always the right move.  I'll wait till teams are announced before I make a decision.  Have 100K in the bank, but not enough to go Bont to Danger otherwise that would be the problem solver.  Thanks for the input mate.

[WhatsSC???]

Thoughts on this...

Hibberd -> Bonner
Dunkley -> Taranto

Banking $400k for future upgrades....

[Peter]

Leave Hibberd and get rid of Bont to Coniglio- $125k made and just sit

[tor01doc]

A trade used to be considered justifiable if it made / saved over around $100,000?

Hibberd to Bonner

Three round projection saving = $180,000


But lose a potential keeper, maybe some points along the way but it is tempting especially with all those lovely trades just sitting there burning a hole in my pocket.

It is very tempting, but at this stage I going for Simpson

[jvalles69]

CEY an option? Crouch bro's out for awhile, could be a very worthy cash cow.

[jvalles69]

Might have seen a better option now.  Trade out Bont, swing Finlayson to the mids and bring in Simpson to the back line.  He has a fantastic run coming up and he is a definite keeper rather than taking a risk on another mid who might not be a keeper by the end.  Backline will be Laird, Simpson, Lloyd, Sicily, Seedsman and Doedee on field which is very solid early.  If Sicily does end up being a keeper I can swing him forward eventually for a bit of cover.  Think this is my safest move this week whilst still keeping $$$ in the bank for a mid upgrade.

in a bit of a pickle,

I dont see hibbo being as prolific as last year with the inclusion of lever and with lewis spending more time in the back half, his intercept possessions are way down, so in saying this ive got 2 options

Option 1: Hibbo > Bonner
              Zorko > Danger + 150k that allows me to go dunkly to mclean/gray/heeney (maybe) as early as round 4 with 1 trade
Or

Option 2: Keep Hibbo
             dunkley> Waterman
             Zorko > Danger + nothing in the kitty and risk waterman being dropped/being a slow burn rookie and needing to wait for
                                        upgrade potential
Thoughts?

Probably option 2. Better cash generation and gets Danger.
