Trade Plans

[Holz]

i spent about 30 minutes doing all the calcs and predictions and have finally settled on a game plan, as i just realised i couldnt go ward to tags and krak to selwood.

round 5:  Broughton to Toy and Krak to Dids
round 6: hold
round 7: Tapscott to mzungu ( i have enough mid cover) and Ward to Selwood
round 8: Duigan to Jacobs abd curnow to montagna.

put me down to 16 trades left for the final 16 rounds but turns my mids and forward line from

Swan, Boyd, Bartel, Anthony, Ward, Curnow (Harris, Krak, Bewick) to
Swan, Boyds, Bartel, Anthony, Montagna, Selwood ( Harris, Bewick, Mzungu)
and
Franklin, Vodlt, Stevie J, Higgins, Petrie, Knights, Darling (Tapscott, Matera, Richardson)
Didak, Franklin, Voldt, Stevie J, Higgins, Knights, Petrie (Darling, Matera, Richardson)

one L T I might throw a spanner in the works huh?

sounds good, however why are you picking rookies that arent going to play for a long time like especially mzungu and also jacobs. Downgrade to rookies on the go now, and then to mzungu/jacobs so you make money while you wait. Im doing a similar thing, going trade strong in the next few weeks. Upgrading Krak => J.Roo, Otten/Lower => Enright, Libba => Swan using 5 trades from round 6-8.
Hoping it will be a big plus, leaving 18 trades for round 9 onwards.

well mzungu is coming in so i can put dids in the forward line. I think jacobs should be in soon if not will go for hibberd if he plays or wallis.

Yorigs im just hoping no LTIs you cant plan for those so i exclude them in my plans. Im generally very lucky with injuries so iust hope it continues, i think my only injuries over 2 weeks last year was kennely, voldt and brown

[elephants]

Mzungu isn't expected back until round 13 bit Benny Jacobs is on a test so look to him in a couple. Looks nice though. Will start planning my trades whole watching port vs GC tomorrow :)

[Bluke]

Wayyyyy to many assumptions there Holzman. Nice plan but it will never happen - you're dreaming if you think you can bring in Mzungu in 8. He more than likely wont be ready, and I wouldnt ever bring in a rookie that hasnt played two full games first (which is impossible in this scenario because he isnt named this weeks).

probelm with your plan footy god is that you appear to voervalue what the players you are upgrading are worth and undervalue the guys you are planning to get in,  im not sure if heppel will be over 250k in 2 rounds and im not sure if chappy will fall to 420k.

[Problems]

Any news on Bewick and his shoulder?

[Holz]

Wayyyyy to many assumptions there Holzman. Nice plan but it will never happen - you're dreaming if you think you can bring in Mzungu in 8. He more than likely wont be ready, and I wouldnt ever bring in a rookie that hasnt played two full games first (which is impossible in this scenario because he isnt named this weeks).

i never said mzungu would play but im happy to have him sitting on my mid bench as my 9th mid and have didak up forward, i currently have dids stuck in my mids and there is no point having him there when my forward line is much weaker than my mids.

[Windigo]

Love the way Toy has scored so far for eveyone who traded out Duff or Broughton.

Broughton will now make 110+ just to rub it in.  :P

im happy with th brought to toy trade, im just annoyed i started him over lower. I have been playng duigan on the bench so once the multi byes are over i will be happy starting duigan and having lower,stanley and toy on the bench. Plus krak to dids looking like a greta move at the moment. Dids and duigan is a huge upgrade from krak and broughton.

[Windigo]

I put Lower on field hoping he will play or I will get Stanley's score.

When do the teams come out.....This round is the worst!!

[elephants]

stanley was pretty good. toy will still make us 20 k and even if broughtin/duffield gets 100 they will still lose you money.
