Gold Coast Bye

[Davoo]

Everyone seems to be having grief with the bye next week. im having no donuts if higgins is back but probs no emergencies.

ive got 4 GC players excluding jtippett. how many GC players do you have? how many donuts are you facing?

[Montag]

rischitelli, d.swallow, zac smith and dixon. I will upgrade curnow next week so i can put swallow on bench but i also have cover with hibberd, jcobs, gibbs, goddard. plenty of cover in backline so might use mpp

[jeffbutch]

expecting no donuts and should have at least one merg in all lines. i have 6 GC in my team but trading 2 next week.

[Ziplock]

toys, stanley, harris, smith, jippett, matera, prestia.

looking to trade out either stanley or matera this week, maybe both, since I should be pretty sweet for my league game this week... and it means next week I can upgrade to chapman and/ pendles.

or, if higgins is still being a soft cock, I may have to upgrade him to chapman. Which would suck. But, could be necessary.

[jeffbutch]

prior to round 9 bye

Swallow >>> Judd
B.Smith >>> Gibbs

This will be my team after the trades above are made

def    goodard, deledio, gibbs, heppell, enright, lower, h.shaw    (stanley, toy, puopolo)
mid   swan, pendles, montagna, goodes, judd. j.selwood    (harris, curnow, hibberd)
ruck  sandilands, cox, (z.smith, keefe)
fwd   franklin, j riewoldt, n.riewoldt, pavlich, knights, tapscott, darling    (matera, richardson, i.smith)

nb. i mentioned 2 GC trades above but it will be 1, leaving GC

[Ziplock]

ummmm, why Judd? He's not really a super premium mid for DT.

This is his highest season average of 104. SC, not a DTer.

And I wouldn't want so many high costing carlton, come the bye.

[jeffbutch]

whoops. didnt realise this was a DT forum. sorry

[Ziplock]

lol dw bro, I've done it before as well. Had a full blown argument once before I realised I was on SC lol.

[Problems]

wow, with my 7 it looks like I've got more than most. I'm lucky and have cover as I'm only using 2 on the ground.

Stanley, Toy. Swallow, Iles. Zmith. Prestia & Matera.

Looking to trade out Stanley and Swallow this week depending on their BEs and after some Isaac Smith/Jacobs JS and Heater deliberation

lol dw bro, I've done it before as well. Had a full blown argument once before I realised I was on SC lol.

On a side note, lol!

[Ziplock]

It was pretty embarrassing, I was like- well, good thing is this aDT forum and not a flowering SC one!

and everyone was like-.... this is a SC forum bro....

Aww Ziplock lol

As for Judd, he is somewhat cheaper than other guns that only average 10ppr more.

Coad and Frasier for GC. Both need to be traded out.

[bundyboy]

well seems like I'm the only one a bit screwed... :-[

swallow, harris and illes in mids was fine - untilllll.......curnow, and softcock higgins continue to miss.

was always planning upgrade trade to swann this week for 1 of them - but still means I am sitting with zero mid emergencies this week coming..

[Andrew]

I've got Swallow, Harris, and Iles in midfield, and wanted to hold onto Curnow... forced myself to sell Swallow/Harris next week for Issac Smith, but I'd be likely bringing Smith in anyway if named as I need his dual position. Hopefully Bewick plays 2 games on the trot otherwise I will be in trouble!

[MissPiesFF]

@Bundy I think there will be a lot of coaches down and out with the GC bye. Just don't panic trade lol, let the others do that.  ;D

[Memphistopheles]

I always planned to do a double downgrade of GC players before this round.

At this stage i'm thinking Swallow/Harris and Stanley to I. Smith and Jacobs.

Will free up cash for next week when I can almost complete my full prem midfield to go with my forwards and def which are already finalised.
