Wise move or stupid move to bring in Enright?

matt1985 · May 02, 2011, 10:30:24 PM

Well I have found a way to get Enright in, I just don't know if it's the right move or not... I can downgrade Callan Ward to Iles/Wallis Leaving me 160k or so, then Duigan to Enright Possibly Scotland.

My original plan was to downgrade Duigan and upgrade Otten. I was going to let Ward get to 300k then bring in a fallen premium into my mids... But my mids and forwards are very strong and am suffering a bit down back. So i'm trying to strengthen that area up.

So is Enright the "top" choice out of all the backs at the moment?

Current backline is Gibbs, God, Grimes, Heppell, Duigan, Stanley, Lower (Heath Shaw, Otten, Toy)

Shaw out for the bye hurts a little but bringing another premium in should help balance things up a bit. Thanks for your help so far everyone!

Well I have Pendles and Dids on bench, plus can roatate Higgens (when he's back) and Chap between mids/fwds. Who are you tossing up between with Iles/wallis Footy god?

Im going to go Wallis, extra 20k is valuable. Infact I cant make the trade without it. Makes the decision easy.

I liked the way he played on the weekend. I'm just a bit iffy on his JS tho :S I'll wait till friday until I decide on who to go :)

I figure if he surives this week with Gia, Higgins back he should be alright. Id say they would give Libba a rest before him. Ward/Grant down on form also.

im planning the same thing but im deciding between wallis or jacobs. If i go jacobs i can bring heppel into the forward line and cover him with hibberd. Or if i bring in wallis i will need him to play this week.

Footy God · May 02, 2011, 11:08:01 PM

Just gave me a new thought.

Libba-Hibberd

Gives me DPP with Hibberd and Heppell in the mids.

Then next week Jacobs in so I still get DPP with rookies. Only risk is Hibberd playing???

i really like that idea, if i get in jacobs i will have hibberd and heppel in the backline so plenty of flexibility.

Yeah true good point. Hopefully if he does get named this week they don't sub him! Well I feel happy about the downgrade/upgrade move. Should help me out quite alot!

I considered Jacob too, but I don't know if he will be named this week? If he is that's who i'll go to. But I really try to stick to people on the bubble. Not a fan of trading in guys before they've proved themselves. I can make an exception for Jacobs, heard good things about him!

Without reading the rest. Your original post = wise move.

matt1985 · May 02, 2011, 11:37:15 PM

Thanks Lahug, i'm set on this trade now. Fingers crossed Jacobs is named this week, if not i'll get in Wallis I reckon. Thanks for all your help everyone!

LaHug · May 02, 2011, 11:39:04 PM

I'd get Iles. Good JS, should be able to be a perma bench cover for you. As long as it gives you enough cash.

matt1985 · May 02, 2011, 11:42:27 PM

Yeah will still give me plenty of cash! I'll have to think about my options during the week! Feel good about this trade tho :)
