Help for a first time DTer - cameda09's side

[cameda09]

 Hi guys

This is my first year of DT and i must say that I am thoroughly enjoying it! I was looking for some feedback/help with my current team  :)

Backs: Hodge, J Drummond, Carazzo, Gilbee, Kennelly, Birchall, J hunt
Bench: Silvagni, J Trengrove

Mids: Barlow, Goddard, Deledio, Martin, Cooney, J Watson,
Bench: Morabito, Shuey

Forwards: J Brown, Higgins, Hall, Thomas, Zieball, Walker, Rockliff
Bench: Gumby, Buddy

I was thinking of trading Buddy for Pods and martin out for Swan. Is this a good idea, as Swan's price seems to be leveling out?

Any help would be greatly appreciated guys.  :)

you have him thus far give him some more grace, Buddy.
Hopefully he'll come good. His last game went without a mark or goal and yet he got 70s. He'll come around. Don't waste your trade.

thanks elxam :)

I am really keen to get Swan into my team to help give my scores that extra amount of points it desperately requires.

How should I do this? I think waiting a few weeks is my best chance as my cash cows grow?

Any more thoughts from anyone?

ziebel for pods and shuey for swann (need a bit of extra cash)
Otherwise use martin for swann

[cameda09]

I don' t think I will have enough for that to work, I only have 35 200 in the bank. I think I will wait to next week to get Swan in.

any other advice would be great guys

Thanks for the advice master Q :)

At this stage I think that I will have to go without Swan for a while, which is unfortunate because my midfield could use him. The only way to get him would be to wait a few rounds until Barlow or Morabito peaks and trade them for him.

I think I will trade in Ziebell for Pods this round and wait for my cows to grow.

All the advice is greatly appreciated guys :)

Please keep the advice coming for my debut season!

[Master Q]

Barlow has already peaked? Not much else i can really say.

[cameda09]

according to ffgenie he has a BE of 43 this week and will rise 18 000 next week?

[Prospector_1]

Is 18K worth waiting for? Especially if you know how you want to use the rather larger sum already made!

[antonc]

Freo playing richmond at subi
Barlow good chance to get 100 plus and rise more then 18K

Well that's a whole 'nother story!

[cameda09]

Thanks for all the help guys, I really do appreciate it  :)

I don't have enough money this week to bring in Swan. I will have to wait another week for martin, morabito, barlow to rise in price. I think the only trade I will use is Ziebell>Pods.

Is this a good idea? Or should I be looking elsewhere? (eg Hall, Josh Hunt?)

Keep the great advice coming!!!!

[elxam]

Ziebell should be fine.
give him some more time

[cameda09]

I won't have enough dough to bring in Swan or Ablett in the next few rounds, so should I go for someone a bit cheaper? Like Bartel, Selwood etc? Any suggestions would be great!
