Goldy, Billings or Hibberd?

[Samsturmfels]

Currently have all three of Goldy, Billings and Hibberd. Have traded Ryan to Guelfi. Have 97k in the bank. Which 'premo' would you trade?

I'd look at getting Grundy in ASAP, seems to be the standout ruck this year. I'm in a similar boat with Billings but will hold off for now, will give him 1 more week & if he spuds it will bring in Yeo.

Yeah i was originally thinking the exact samething. However, I can only afford Grundy if i find an extra 30K. Thoughts on trading on of Naughton or Holman really early? otherwise im thinking hibberd to yeo

Holman will stall now he has that 32, can see the merit in going early.

If Holman puts up a decent score next game he will be back to making cash. Too early to trade him in my opinion

expected to hit 290k over the next 3 weeks. Goldy expected to lose 50k. In this case I can see the justification.

Well i have Bilings and Goldy and I agree both looked cooked already!
Which one goes this week, not sure but this will be the decision most will face.

St Kildas next 4 games don’t look good for Billings...GWS, Hawks, Melbourne, Freo.
Nth next 4 games are Hawks, Port, Sydney and Richmond.

Both Goldy and Billings will be up against it. The issue with these 2 are that they are uniques in my cash leagues and they are costing me dearly.

I can bring in either Grundy or Heeney for only one if them but that would mean going early on Mirra for Naughton or Brayshaw (via Finlayson)

I think Naughton is improving but brayshaw is about to start losing money.
Which trade would be more ideal? And which out of Brayshaw or Naughton goes?
If brayshaw goes I’d have to field Mirra or Naughton as a D6, could be a risk but at the state that my team is currently I am willing to take that chance, can’t get any worse to be honest.

In my experience rucks who burst out of the blocks in the first 4-5 rounds rarely drop off to any great extent. Don't think Grundy will be averaging 130 forever but everything is pointing to him being top 2 at this stage. As for Goldy, think it's been mentioned before that he doesn't do that well in losses, combine that with a really weak midfield and Preuss breathing down his neck & I see trouble on the horizon. Now's the time to get this sorted because there will be so many other priorities you will get sidetracked.

As for Billings, tough draw but last year he did score 114 against GWS, 93 vs Hawks, 112 vs Demons & 88 vs Dockers. No doubt on the watchlist but I think he deserves more time.
