Hill Or Grimes

[kelso129]

I traded out hill about 3 weeks go and am shattered by his recent scores. I am going to trade out petrenko (who is a starter) and bring in either hill or grimes is grimes worth getting for the cash or can hill produce bigger scores?

[Don Gibson]

grimes' injury past worries me. a lot of people will be jumping on, but like cogs, i will steer clear. already carrying injury-prone haselby so can't have too many.

Why bother sideways trading on $200Kish defenders? 

Downgrade Petrenko to Broughton when he plays again and use the cash somewhere else.  Or cash out somewhere else and upgrade Petrenko.

I worry about Petrenkos space - not even more with his low scoring game this week. You need to be wary of Grimes because of his injuries. Definitely a player to have though.

You might be late on Hill - in terms of price - but he's a keeper. Finally found his nerve on the field.

Hill is my choice. But Grimes in cheaper,

[Clint-84]

why trade a player out and them trade him back in when he's 100k more expensive?

what a waste of a trade

[thatguy]

what is everyone's concern with grimes and injuries?  ??? he had a back problem on the eve of round one, not soft tissue and he hasnt come off a knee reco or anything!

until he was injured he was my 7th backman, just a shame he has been out for the first 6 weeks.

everyone is always concerned about ``injury prone players'' but i dont think 1 injury is cause for concern. guys like coughlan yes, but not grimes. if you saw brent moloney's article on monday u will see they love the ball in grimes' hands  at demon land. if your going to get on him, do it as he could surprise as a potential cheap keeper avg 80+ points.

I'd be concerned with trading a cash cow out early - only to bring him back in when he's risen in price.....esp after they've risen around the $100K mark.

Sometimes you have to stick with a decision and look elsewhere....

[verda32]

if you ask me i would get Hill because you have got rid of him. lol

[tony73]

mmm I traded out LAnthony knowing full well I would have to trade him back in. I spose the diference is he has not gone up $100k+

It was Otten that came in and proably Otten that will go out for Anthony to come back and am not complaining

[kelso129]

yeh i no i made a mistake but i want to trade petrenko anyway so getting hill in doesnt seem like a waste of a trade to me, just an error.

[Alex7089]

Grimes has posted scores of 91 & 109 if he plays decently next week he will rise in price like you wouldn't believe. I have full confidence in  his ability to become a keeper.
I reckon you've missed the boat on hill.
Grimes would be my choice.

[bjrouse]

Petrenko will make way this week for Grimes

[lovepelican]

IMO it depends how many trades you have. If you have been burning trades, I would bring in Grimes and hope he is a keeper, so you don't need to trade him out for cash. If you have been more frugal with the trades, Broughton may be a better option, as he'll give you a bit of cash now and will make you a bit in the future.

[kelso129]

I brought in grimes for petrenko b4 the weekend very happy. I aleady have broughton he makes a good 8th man emergancy.

[Al]

Why would get Hill back? Are you slow? He has 2 good games and you want him back?

I also heard he might be rested this week. Keep an ear out for that.

Grimes is definitely a pick up for all with a lot of trades left. It's just a question of who to get rid of him for.

Broughton is another decent option. Not many rookies backs look like popping up so jumping on him could be worthwhile.
