Jack Redden. Nuff said.

Can't believe I traded this spud in... he was a pretty common trade in from what I can tell...

I got Libba out for this guy iirc. Think I needed to avoid a doughnut... I was trying to go unique but Redden really was mutton dressed as lamb it would appear... 49 at 3qtr...

I know you don't trade premiums out... but I'm really tempted to trade him to an out and out premium.

Anyone else super regretting trading this potato in?

should have gone rockliff. more unique and is tearing up. would have cost me only an extra 10k. not as abd as putiing him capt last week and getting 64, add a.swallow to that midfield and i am in trouble

Problems

Redden is definitely not a premium imo so your not breaking any rules by trading him out, he's only scored well this year - from 5 of 7 games this year anyway

Maybe hold him til Pendles/Swan/Chappy bottom out?

Montag

watson, chappy, bartel, ablett (150 today tho), montagna, pendles, swan will bottom out in about 3-4 weeks

Yeah I've already got T-Rock. My completed side will probably leave me with around 8 trades or so for rest of season...

Midfield of: Swan, Pendles, T-Rock, Redden, Mundy and Foley

Grimes = If he didn't get injured my team would have been complete with 9-10 trades left and would have had enough to easily trade out Redden :(

This is why they say don't skimp on your premiums.

Surely there are better options than Rocky and Redden!

Na Rocky at $377,000 was pure quality value. 108.57 average low score of 86 this year. Since I've traded him in he's given me: 106, 132, 86 and 117 tonight. Very happy with that. 110 average for 377k... Just sad I captained him last week...

Man I should get rid of Redden but I can't really afford to... what was I thinking... I made a decision of Redden or Mundy, I chose Redden and got Mundy this week... no wonder I'm going horrible this year.

I bought in didak after his 118 :(

chaosAD

Just relax, he has had two average games. He'll be back !

everyone thought this guy was elevating to premo status...

agree he has had a couple bad ones but its rare to see premiums put in back to back stinkers...

Wes Mantooth

I brought him in too, so did may others but I did so because I had him on my radar very early on and knew he got a lot of the ball and tackled a lot. So when I saw him start to tear it up I was kicking myself.

Sure two bad games in a row isn't too good but well... I think I'll stick with him, he wont get tagged whereas Rock, Black, Rich and Power (well used to) do.

RiOtChEsS

definitely keep him if u have him ;)

im aware of a chap that went Swan>Redden before the pie bye put the C on Redden chasing overall...

plans on getting Swan back after rd 13 but he was convinced this fella was the air apparent :-X

1 week is nothing to go on. Give him another few weeks as he had cracked out tons most of this season.

And the worst trade is trading in Grimes for Duigan the week he gets injured :'(. Grimes injured, Duigan has a great game ::).

*Peace Out Pplz.

I traded Libba for this kid, figuring it was going to take Libba ~3-4 weeks to make only 50k with his soreness..

Libba looks good for a ton early 1st qtr vs Tigs..
