Should I make my last 2 trades this week or next week?

[North Melbournes Finest]

So I'm on 7 trades, and I think I'm going to settle on my trade for a little while now, likely until finals.

My last move is

Zac Smith > dud ruckmen
Rohan Bewick > Scott Pendlebury/Chris Judd

Should I make the trade this week, and stop one of my two "0's" or as I'm not going for overall should I just hang on another week in case of a LTI and price drop from Pendlebury?

I would hold Pendles had a b/e of 151 so may be in line for a price drop.  Bewicks price will not change as he is an emergency. The downside is that Smith has a B/e of 133 so may drop further. But by waiting a week other options may arise.

How much cash do u have? Do u have petrie in your forwards?

[Spinking]

I'd go Smith to Lobbe or someone this week, and hold fire on the Bewick to Pendles / Judd until next week. Who are your other mids?

[Jake8]

Yeh go smith to lobbe this week then get pendles or judd next week.

Yeh go smith to lobbe this week then get pendles or judd next week.

Agreed.

Although Judd is worth it bear in mind he will not be available for Prelim final so if you do not have strong cover for him forget Judd.

This is my team:



I've already got Lobbe. I have about 14k in cash. I'm looking at 2-3 "0's", but I'm going for league.

I'd favour Pendles over Judd because of finals bye. Griffen is in smoking form too - still one more bye for the dogs but you have no others so OK.

What game is the pic on your profile from???  What a legend - I want to see that in higher res!

I'd be weary of Pendles over Judd, just because of the Blues bye. 

Pendles most likely will get a rest before the finals, and at least you know when Judd will get his bye.  When will Pendles?

[Ringo]

Smith > Rookie Ruck as you will probably not be relying on him I would go to the $91k rucks
Still not enough to go Bewick Pendles though so Maybe Darling to Lynch St Kilda who is on bubble
then Bewick to Pendles next week but leaves you 4 trades only.

Maybe best Option is to just do the Smith downgrade and sit pocketing the $286k and using it to upgrade. As you will loose Watson for Finals maybe Upgrade him to Pendles next week.  Pendles will most likely drop in price this week with a high B/e of 151.

Also Keeffe looks to be a good downgrade for Smith, depending on his scoring, will get more of a return on funds than Lobbe.

Will just have to wait to see how he plays.

It's from the 2006-2007 season I believe.

Watson will be back in 2 weeks time, so it's not worth trading him out and wasting a trade. I could just do Mzungu > Judd. I'll use Didak and Isaac as my spare men for byes.
