Time to trade Cross?

[Maca24]

Ok, so ive held Daniel Cross since day one but im thinking that he is to risky to carry in to finals.
Should I sell up now, or hold him through?
I have plenty of trades and cash.

if you have the luxury of trades, why not.

Could go Selwood, if your top 4, and have this win in the bag.

severely underpriced.

Why wouldnt u have traded out before his last bye???

Would have to see your team to make a decision!

[Maca24]

Unfortunately CS, Im not top 4 and am looking at Watson  :-X
@Jayman - Because last week I had an easy win. Its hard for someone like yourself to gauge my reasons for decisions like these  ;)

[pothead]

no dont trade him, keep him, please!

Just giving my opinion mate!

Wots ur mids look like???

[charliesheen]

I would look at Mitchell.

I know his record suxs against PA, but its PA!

no worries, and thanks I appreciate it.
Mids are: Ablett, Pendles, Swan, Hodge, M.Murphy and Cross.

[charliesheen]

is there anyway you can fit in an M7 rather than doing a sideways trade?

[Jay]

Ok i would go selwood...risky but will work if u win this round!

If too risky u could go mitchell/dalsanto/priddis???

Cross has been given more defensive roles this year which has effected his scoring. If you have the trades I'd consider it. But no way should you bring in Watson! What are you thinking he has a bye in the grand final! But an extra Mid instead is a better idea as you also need cover for Murphy in R23

lol im a crazy man ;) went with Watson as I always go with my gut.
I have Mzungu cover, so not worried in Rd23. Also I have to make the Grand Final first!

Wow very risky!

Good luck mate!!!!

imo take Priddis or Mitchell..  Mitchell is up against the bye.  Expect a blow out.  The stats with Mitchell are not as flattering, but... PA this year are a basket case.   

Selwood I can't see him not get 130+ against Adelaide, if you need to 100% nail the win.  I just don't like he has a bye in r22, 2nd chance.

Priddis vs Melbourne

2011 - 142 SC
2010 - 160 SC
2009 - 72 SC <-- guess you could argue he was not a premium at this stage...
2008 - 95 SC <-- here too

Top 11 Scores vs Melbourne - as you can see a huge chunk of midfielders

S.Johnson   199
D.Wells   175
T.Rockliff   163
T.Goldstein   158
C.Judd   155
J.Selwood   155
J.Corey   155
L.Montagna 151
M.Murphy   147
R.Griffen   144

Priddis Stats enough to warrant the C as a POD?
