I took a punt and traded Curnow out

mmmm, ok, for league it's not as bad.

You are suppose to cash in players who start to wane with their scores and struggle to hold their place. Curnow is going ahead in leaps and bounds and is fast becoming a keeper. Overall or league only, your loss I'm afraid.

LaHug · April 30, 2011, 12:20:12 AM

I don't think he's becoming a keeper. If he was backs or forwards, then maybe, but not a mid keeper. However, WAY too early to get rid of him.

It isn't a joke. Curnow had a break even of 30 before the round started, and Polec's was -37. Curnow has already increased by close to 160K, so I decided to cash in - plus has the bye in 2 rounds time.

I am not devastated with the decision, but need Polec to score a minimum of 50 for it to work. BTW, Polec is a gun - remember he was the Lions first pick in the draft last year, and he is in a pretty young midfield, so will get plenty of chances.

WOW!!!! I spose the only upside is that the lions run from here is STK(H), RIC(A), GC(H), ESS(H), NM(H), ADE(A)

I'm just saying, unless you need cash fast and desperately, you keep your highest averaging rookies the longest, as they'll make you the most cash, and give you the most points if/when you need to field them.
+1

+2. Yet surely Curnow is bordering keeper status for most sides. I was nervous about having only 3 premiums in my midfield but the gun rookies are doing a great scoring job. I'll upgrade elsewhere and back my mids in for another 3-4 weeks.

Hahahahaha
Polec will never come close to aveaging Curnows score n therefore Curnow will keep making more than Polec
U just traded coz Polec was on the bubble

Very Poor Trade. :(
If you are going for league you should be milking your cows as late as possible. Curnow should be kept
until he reaches $400k at least.

Bad move..Curnow hasn't done anything to let us down...at all!!!

LaHug · April 30, 2011, 03:02:52 PM

Man I would have never admitted to that! The name of the game is to upgrade or save trades. You used a trade to downgrade!!

downgrades are important u need them to upgrade, even if u do the upgrade in a differt week, allthough there would have been better choices. this coment annoyed me

LF · April 30, 2011, 05:11:47 PM

this actually reminds me of powermans thread on trading out barlow last year :)
