HotTiges 2011 SC team

[HotTiges]

annoyingly have to wait for Talia's next match. Be interesting to see what Jolly scores this week. Could be a nice trade for Smith.

[HotTiges]

Shaw being a flowerface cost me a trade. Now with 20k in the bank my best option with 1 trade is Nathan Bock or Shannon Hurn. Not filling me with any confidence. I'm comfortably sitting in top 4 in all 5 leagues so just thinking is it worth downgrading Shaw to a rookie and keep Lower as a d7?? seems to be scoring as well as anyone down back and looks to be solid in the mids for freo. With minimal trades left (6) using 2 to get Fisher or Broughton seems a little desperate. Thoughts guys??

Whats your team look like now?  Did you trade in Shaw?

[HotTiges]

Goddard, Deledio, Gibbs, Grundy, Enright, Suckling, Lower (Puopolo, L Thompson, Shaw)

Swan, Judd, Pendlebury, S Thompson, Priddis, Ablett (c) (Bewick, Mzungu, Jacobs)

Cox, Smith (Vardy, J tip)

Pavich, Franklin, Goodes, N Riewoldt, Chapman, J Riewoldt, Petrie (Talia, Siposs, Richardson)

yeah traded him in on the thursday

[Ringo]

What about Shaw to Bob Murphy or Gilbert and use DPP with Talia for flexibility?  I know both are up and down but maybe worth a look.

[HotTiges]

Yeah would favor Gilbert over Murphy. Gilbert's been ok lately. also gives me a little cash injection

[charliesheen]

This will put you on 4 trades, but I would do it, as it completes your team and gets rid of dead weight.

Siposs / Richo > Callinan (He should be named this week I have heard from reports).
Shaw > Broughton/Fisher

Gets rid of the dead weight down the bottom.

So your team will look like

Goddard, Deledio, Gibbs, Broughton/Fisher, Enright, Suckling, Lower (Puopolo, L Thompson, Talia)

Swan (C), Judd, Pendlebury, S Thompson, Priddis, Ablett (Bewick, Mzungu, Jacobs)

Cox, Petrie (Vardy, Smith)

Pavich, Franklin, Goodes, N Riewoldt, Chapman, J Riewoldt, Grundy (Callinan, JTipp, Siposs)

[HotTiges]

yeah was scouting the fwd line and forgot about Calliain. Could be a on a winner. Prob go Fish ya reckon??although Broughton huge unqiue in my leagues. haven't seen many if any teams with him.

[charliesheen]

its hard to split them, tbh.  was pumping broughton awhile back, and like I said awhile ago he could very well end up outscoring both Scotland and Fisher, towards the 2nd half of the season.

Fisher is probably more safer.  Broughton could be good POD for your league.

[charliesheen]

take the safe route in Fisher, Roger Hayden out 6-8 weeks may change things with his role.

[HotTiges]

ahh bloody hayden out again

[HotTiges]

6 trades left and 21k left. Smith has been struggling and only 339k now. Best option is Hale with 1 trade.. oh yay so more then likely need 2 trades to get quality. Mumford is in that range but has the bye annoyingly. Reckon Smith can hold? or continue to drop. I could take a punt on NicNat as I've already got Cox. Have Petrie in the fwds but don't fancy his bye with Vardy as back up in the rucks if I decide to MPP Petrie into the ruck via J Tip..

downback I have Shaw still so Fisher is in line although I'm worried about his leg issue he picked up on Friday night. Should still get back up. Otherwise I'm looking at a cheaper premo to grab some cash, Duffield?? hmm unlikely lol

fwds are hell this week J Roo and Goodes out as well Nick. Also Richo and Talia on field yikes and Siposs soaking up the atmosphere. Looking possibly at Callian in for Siposs who I can then MPP with Mzungu then can upgrade Smith or something. Also considering getting Sylvia in for some finals coverage RE Judd, Chapman

[HotTiges]

This week is Lower > Android for massive cash injection and use some of the cash for Smith > Mummy. should have over 160k for a J Roo upgrade then have 2 trades left for finals  :-[
