Round 3 trades

[upthemaidens]

Tossing up between these three to trade out for Walker.

Cripps - 90 avg - 137 BE - drop $20,700
Taranto - 84 avg - 92 BE - drop $3,500
Philllips - 67 avg - 90 BE - drop $10,100

I already Got Matts answer :)

Phillips got 90 last week and had 24 touches this week.  At 400k he's not going to lose much and has dpp.
   Not sure I would do any of those trades, but Cripps makes you the most coin. 250k odd ? Can't remember prices.

Crazy if you trade Taranto or Phillips after one mediocre round

Rowell and Caldwell  for  Tex and Jordon   unless any last minute issues.
   Two injured players out for two cash cows and pocket the cash.  Seems the obvious move.

Good moves, surprised you didn't trade Rowell last week, but it's paid off.  I don't think I can get Tex unfortunately (could be a blessing in disguise).  Just sideways my worst rookie for Jordon.

Had E on Campbell, so kept Rowell to take his score.
  Tex is no doubt fools gold, but can str8 swap to Neale in a few weeks :)

I actually think Tex will pan out, I'm wary cos I chased Viney last year and got stuck with him.

I think he is fools gold as well but can't see how he can't make about 150K at least so I'm in  :P

If I don't get him and he goes 140+ again, that will hurt more than bringing in and he spuds it up.  :P

Early thoughts
Briggs to Jordon and Jones to Tex
Or
Dow to Jordon Daniher to Butters
Or Neale to Brayshaw and Daniher to Boak/Dunkley

Either first option is good, jordon a must. Butters only good if he's a keeper (probably is) Tex good as a cash cow no matter what happens short of injury.

Seems I have 3 options

1) Jordan Clark & Joe Daniher to Stefan Giro & Tex Walker.
Tex has a pretty nice fixture coming up so should at least match or outscore Joe plus make a heap of cash, while Joe has a tough draw

2) Andy McGrath (My Rowell replacement from last round) & Jordan Clark to Isaac Heeney & Tex Walker
Only just picked up McGrath and still think he should be good enough for M8 at worst, but there's a chance I might have got it wrong and he might not be, plus the Dons are smashed with injuries so it's only gonna get tougher for him, where as Heeney should be good enough as a forward keeper plus I get Tex

3) Hold, no trades, pass on Tex

I've got all the rookies I want, so Round 3 is the round to make corrections, and from that viewpoint I'm tempted to go with Option 2 as I maintain the same number of keepers in my side by sideways trading McGrath to Heeney, but I get Tex and his cash gen too so it's just the cost of 2 trades which is the downside, but the potential upside of Heeney as a keeper and Tex + his cash seems like it may be worth it?

It also moves Rowe from F6 to F7 too (And brings Highmore on ground from D7 to D6)

Might have convinced myself to go with it

Everything makes sense with the Heeney/Tex trades, think you are in a strong position with trades to get some more rookies off the field & make money. Be aggressive now & worry about trades when you dip below 10. With the strong batch of rookies coming through upgrading won't be too tricky, just need a bit of sauce from the bench.

Bringing in Warner and Jordan as rookie correctional trades. Who goes for those 2?


Daniher, Scott, Fullarton, McNeill, Bergman??

I think Cripps has to go after news he is playing injured
