Jumping the gun

shancrow · April 14, 2011, 01:53:53 PM

I was pondering this...

Trading J Darling for D Prestia as Prestia's value hasn't changed as yet

Therefore allowing my to upgrade P Vespremzi (gone missing) to S Higgins (looking the goods)

Am I just jumping the gun or is this a worthy trade at this time of the season?

Advice please

I'd rather downgrade Vespremzi to Prestia, and keep darling a bit longer. Plus WB have a bye this week.

What does the rest of your forward line look like?

shancrow · April 14, 2011, 04:26:10 PM

Franklin, Riewoldt, Rioli, Pavlich, Vespremi, Gamble, Darling, Richardson, Tapscott and McKernan

Don't know who is worst... Gamble or Vespremzi

maybe... downgrade vespremzi to prestia... upgrade gamble to ???? will have about 400K

How much cash do you have.

Is there anyway you can downgrade Vespremi to Prestia. Then combine those funds to upgrade Gamble to Higgins?

Probably don't get higgins this week because of the bye scenario.

The answer would be no.

Going that option though.. I can afford...

Hill
Murphy
Fyfe
Hurley
Garlett
Mayne
Yarran

First 2 being doggies so they are out

Definitely get prestia in, its just who to upgrade gamble to. You can actually give gamble 1 more week (if his named) and decide next week who ugprade target is.

you going for league wins or mainly ranking?

Fyfe is okay if your only concerned with league wins, round 6 will hurt ladder rankings.
Garllett/Yarran/Hurley is effecitvely a double trade come finals
Robert Murphy/hill --> these look okay but a bit risky, also means you can't use them becoz of first bye.
dangerfield --> probably will fit into your structure since first byes over.

I think I will take the Dangerfield option... as he will most likely increase in price

Thanks for the advice

if you go vez to prestia then upgrade gamble its the same as going gamble to prestia and upgrading vez lol..
