ROOKIE TRADES??

[chekdogz]

I have both D.Rich and A.Otten, and just wondering when i should trade these rookies out?? i was thinking of trading rich to cooney next week??
i have 550K in the bank so money isnt a problem

[verda32]

if money isn't a problem then why not upgrade rich to someone more consistant like pendlebury or mitchell

[The3rd]

Cooney??

Id be picking up Hodge,
Or Mitchell & Pendlebury as Verda32 mentioned.

Theres much better players than Cooney to pick up in the midfield.

IMO i wouldnt be trading rich or otten just yet. Rich is pretty much a keeper, and Otten probably has more cash to make.

[verda32]

you would you keep rich or coughlan once ablett gets back?

[The3rd]

I cant make sense from that question?

[Prospector_1]

Must be the Irish 3rd!

A bigger issue is what rookie would you trade those guys to?

Exactly. These two will play almost every game this year - so its a secure spot. if you trade them for cash, then you want a secure rookie to replace them, but who is that at the moment?

better to trade up, imo, with the cash you have. Go for someone whose undervalued

I wouldn't go near Hodge, it seems most teams have worked out the Hawthorn zone, which means Hodge doesn't factor in like he did last year. 
Couple that with his mystery injury and he's a big risk, even if he is undervalued.
