Will start of with the side and objective of the coming weeks. Going for the league



Really want to get Priddis into the side to finish off the Midfield. Only problem is I have 20k in the bank so I need to make about 450k  :-\

So I will need to downgrade 1 and upgrade 1 to Priddis.  And I also need to trade Gibbsy.
8 trades left will be happy with 5 trades come finals.

My thoughts.
Hibberd to Talia (+200k)
I.Smith / Atley / Jacobs (depending how much I will need) to Priddis.  Im leaning towards I.Smith, form is down and B/E is probably unachievable at this point. This will give me 484k to buy Priddis at 477k

Feedback would be super, cheers.

Like Hibberd to Talia and Smith to Priddis.

Good Team so you must be situated pretty well in league. What about a straight swap coming up Gibbs for Suckling if you need finals cover or alternatively trading down Vardy to Thompson and Otten to Suckling.  By retaining Jacobs you also have the option of bringing Goddard, Delidio or Gibbs into the mids as well using suckling as cover and also keep Gibbs.

Those trades seem good, and in addition i would honestly start trying to get Chapman/Fyfe in that forward line for either krakouer or Jack Roo..Probably for Fyfe as he's finished with his byes.

With getting Priddis, i would say Hibberd>Talia and then Smith > Priddis as you said, to generate more cash in the coming weeks though (to upgrade the forward line) i'd look at either downgrading Vardy or Griffin (if his form goes down when Sandi comes back) and then upgrading Krak/JRoo to Fyfe or Chapman.

From there i'd think your team is set for finals with 4 trades left for any injuries, and that Gibbs trade you should make just before Round 23.

that is an incredibly solid team with 8 trades left.

good trades

Hibberd > talia
i. smith > priddis

exactly what i would do

Hi all, haven't posted for a while i like hibberd to talia. I know you got your heart set on priddis but have you considered bartel in your equations. Extra cash could be used on a Dixon upgrade.

Placed 2nd in the league.
Thanks for the advice on Gibbs, Thompson to Vardy, from all reports he should hold his spot at GC, definite opportunity there as a lot of people are thinking I guess.

What if I do the Vardy to Thompson this week... (Vardy b/e 75)
Otten to Suckling (Otten b/e 104)
So both those trade outs are in danger of losing money this week.

Because Hibberd isn't playing this week so can make that trade next week and Talia is only playing his 2nd game.

Dammit, i typed this out and 3 new posts, ill post this anyway for the moment

charliesheen

nah stick with the first idea mate.

wyldie36

Fyfe would be great! but will need to figure out how to cash in to buy him again.If I make the first trades this week I will be left with 15k.
Would love to trade out JRoo at 326k, Fyfe roughly 470k inc. this week rise so will need about 120k trade in.  Maybe atley / Toy could be replaced by some spud to sit on the bench.  Dont know I suppose thats a discussion for next week.

What would you say is a good trade amount for finals though? 4 enough?

charliesheen

4-5 sounds about right for finals.

wyldie36

im about to trade sorry guys but i was just thinking what about if I go otten to talia this week and hibberd to suckling next to avoid losing money on otten?
Keep the smith to Priddis swap.
Was just a quick thought...?

cheers

charliesheen

I wouldn't be concerned about otten dropping price, it will pick back up as it is doing with heppel.

The reason I suggested Otten in another person's thread is because his rookie bench cover is a bit stronger than yours, so he can actually take the punt.

Has Stanley/Lower as a D8.
