Ok...Scored 2071 which i think is a pretty average score considering the fact that most of the obvious choices this year scored well... Obviously making a trade prior to round 2 would be risky however judging by this week's performance, ive got a few unique picks who have stunk it up...

Therefore, after the first round, who will you be trading out of your team and more importantly.. who will be coming in?

Also, im assuming everyone will be making 2 trades coming into round 3 but interested to know everyones thoughts on how many trades you are planning on using BEFORE ROUND 3?

If you chose your team well before lockout you shouldnt be looking to trade until at least round 6-7 unless a major LTI happens to one of your players.

I can't understand why you wouldn't make at least 2 trades before the price changes. Last chance to get dropping players out, and cash cows in. Everyone, and I mean everyone, will have a couple they would like to exchange. Also could net you 100k+ in the process.

Key word would be IF... haha yeah I held off trading prior to round 3 last year and found keeping premiums like harvey and potential cash cows like butler cost me big time in terms of potential trades come round 22.

Personally im thinking the masten and le cras would be the 2 biggest disappointments from my team so far and assuming they score the same next week would have to go.

So we can freelance trade whoever we want without limit until the end of round 3; which is where the value of all players (having played 3) will go up/down? And after round 3, two trades a week max?

Yeah NOT going to be using any trades, what happens if your uniques start to explode and the nuffy picks all stink it from now.
I think that keeping you picks for now and saving your trades is the best option for now. No serious injurys so yeah...

Agree, and you could grab an even cheaper mid that has scored back to back tons and get some money back. Le Cras however, he might need more than a few weeks. Could come good?

na 2 trades a week from now on... ie if you want to make 3 trades you better make 1 this week

Mitchell Brown or Hall. After a couple of rounds I might decide the punt was taken, didn't pay off, maybe go for one of the Kennelly/Malceski commons and for Hall - maybe up to Higgins. Something like that.

Yeah was thinking that given ive gone for the 3 starting rookie mids my mids need to pumped up a bit...

Got Stanton in my s/c team (doesnt make sence i know) and thinking if he scores much over 100 round 2, he may have to come in.

dog

Whoa Hall is not a trade option bud!! Seriously, if i had some nuts I would make him captain this week against the tiges.

Im trying to find some odds on him kicking more than 5 goals.

nas

Hall would be a daredevil choice as for the C. reckon if you had him it would be very tempting re tiges backs.

Think yourself lucky on 2071..in DT I only got 1911 and was at bottom of my league. As for trades, I went against the grain and my own advice and traded Nahas for Murphy (doggies)
So one trade on DT and one on SC

Having said that my league is ranked 34....if I had been able to step up just a little I probably would have got the league better than 34... Swaps and my 1 trade I hope I do them proud.

The Dream Factory is who I am talking about. I'll be farked if I finish bottom again.

Scoring 1911 and coming last is a hell of a strong league!
