MM what do you think of my "If all goes according to plan" trading strategy?

Current team :

Goddard , Newman , Adcock , Broughton , Grimes , Heppel , Lower  - Duigan , Stanley , Otten.
Pendles , Mitchell , Selwood , Pavlich , Harris , Swallow                   - Conca , Bewick , Hibberd.
Sandi , Cox                                                                                 - McCauley , Tippet.
Franklin , N.Roo , Goodes , Johnson , Higgins , Petrie , Tapscott       -  Darling , Matera , Krak.

-------

3 Weeks worth of trades (assuming downgrade rookies hit their bubble).

Goddard , Newman , Adcock , Broughton , Shaw , Gibbs , Heppel     - Puopolo , Pederson , Otten/Stanley.
Pendles , Mitchell , Selwood , Pavlich , Bolton , Harris                      -  Swallow , Smith , Hibberd.
Sandi , Cox                                                                                    - McCauley , Tippet.
Franklin , N.Roo , Goodes , Johnson , Higgins , Petrie , Tapscott         -  Darling , Matera , Krak.

-------

A few weeks later looking and upgrading Harris , Swallow , Krak and Matera for Swan and Didak (or another premium forward) after their 2nd bye (hopefully Mzungu is back by then).

All good. The only concern I would have is that I'm not too sure on whether the 2 rookie backs will play all that much. Otten/Stanley should be decent cover, and one of the others should play. Pederson doesn't look that impressive to me, and I can't see him holding his spot. Could be wrong though. Puopolo will have some decent competition with Cyril, Suckling and Osborne making their way into the Hawks team at some stage. He looked capable, so he'll hold Bruce out.

Marstar

Well Ben Jacobs being named means i have another option. Pederson out again however confirms his lack of JS.

The way i see it is that if i'm going to start the ball rolling on recruiting my premiums, then im going to have to let go of the cashcows who have JS ... for ones that don't :s

I could wait a week to see is Puopolo is named... then another week for Ben Jacobs ... but nothing really changes. They could just as well be dropped after their 3rd games  ???

So Grimes and Duigan are 1st on the Hit list. Puopolo and Shaw IN.

meow meow

I think Jacobs has pretty decent JS in that ravel of a team.

Marstar

Got Brennan, now got GAJ. If i get the captain right next week you are gonna have to start listening :P

meow meow

Selwood was a decent captain this week so I'm not too disappointed.

Marstar

Yeah Selwood was a great choice.

Week 1 of my plan went well with Puopolo and H.Shaw.

Week 2 is suppose to be Bolton, and he posted an impressive score this week ... but has a bad record vs the Hawks ... and i have a grudge match in my league, and he has the Injured Watson.

Considering getting Swan vs Adelaide and putting him captain ... and risking my r14 clash in the league by having Swan and Pendles on the Midfield bench with H.Shaw out back.

Decisions Decisions !!!

Fingers crossed Puo and I.Smith are named again this week to make my life easier.

I just did the mother of all F-Ups. Haha I cannot actually believe what I just did. I read about John Brown coming back this week, and that McGrath and DRUMMOND are out. I thought okay, I'll bring ADCOCK into my team this week. Brodie Smith out, Hibberd in. No problems there. Lower out. For some reason, I had Drummond on my mind, and picked him instead of Adcock. Didn't even look at the confirmation page, because really, who could stuff it up?

"Tool of the the week nomination" then Puss Puss?

meow meow

Again?

This one was a simple mistake. A brain fade of the highest order. But yes, I think it's worthy.

Adcock will do his knee this week, and i'll look like a genius for saving that 50K.

How about both Drummond and Adcock average 110 for the rest of the year, then you still save 50k , and i can continue to rub it in my mates faces that i picked Adcock from day 1 when they gave me shower ... and now are eating humble pie and buying him too (100k more expensive ) :P

meow meow

Drummond is out for 6 weeks. When (If?) he comes back, he won't be match fit, and he will struggle to average 80, let alone 110.

At least I got Suckling at his cheapest. That's my one win for the year. Oh, and all my brilliant predictions that I didn't select myself. I'll start working on next years team now.

Marstar

Arg ... yeah saw the drummond report after i posted :( Well stop jinxing Adcock !!! :P
