Help a Brutha Out - I'm going backwards.

[Colliwobblers]

So I am looking at two trades, which 2 would you go for, some notes below.

* NOTE - The LEDGER _ MCCARTHY or EBERT trade requires one of the * marked trades to be chosen also this week.

Ledger only played 1 game as sub - so no price change for him until next game - Macdolald also only played 1 games and won't go up this week.

So this trade can wait until next week if you recomend Howard and Dickson trades this week, but eliminates greene from ever getting in the team.

Howard has only played one game so while he can be traded out next week the replacements will have gone up significantly.

Do you have FFGenie, would make this alot easier

For a human opinion
Dempsey plays Gold Coast next week and despite a weak opener pulled a massive 98 against port
Howard I think has to go because he may not come straight back into team even when fit
Ledger to go as well I think, Ebert looks real good, better than McCarthy imo

[MGK1]

If your set on wanting to trade twice this week. Definently get in Greene for Ledger.
I would hold onto the forward rookies atm. Milera just vsed Gold Coast and don't rate his JS with Schneider injured and Saad his equal.

[TheHanger]

I went Greene but i would wait on pup for him as I learnt with Bugg, if you can

[Colliwobblers]

I would have to do the Greene trade in this week as he will rise a LOT no matter what he scored next week, but I can hold off on trading Ledger out as he has only 1 game and I can trade him to Macdonald after both thier second games.

I am tempted to go to Macdonald as it showed how much they need senior players this week and until he breaks down he has to be a lock in the starting side and a go to guy in the middle. Also Ledger - Macdonald = +$70K approx.

Rookies cannot be trusted to score consistantly which is what tempts me to sideways trade howard rether than downgrade, however downgrading to Mohr on his bubble will make me cash now and more next week and mohr at least has JS at GWS and he will continue to get plenty of it down back.

Dickson could sit on my bench for 10 weeks and not make me the cash a "performing" rookie would make me in half the time and be upgraded.... options for performing FWD rooks are slim atm and since Dickson won't drop that trade can wait but Milera will rise at least $50K after next round - but I take your point on his JS, and I already have 2 GWS in kennedy and DSmith in fwd line. only other barely acceptable fwd rooks are paine smedts cameron hall which all seem a bit "sideways"

[ShaynoB]

Yeah im not getting tempted into the Greene trade. I cant see him continueing much longer as Macdonald and Treloar come iin, Sheil gets fitter and his little legs get more tired over coming weeks. Will make quick cash but not getting tempted.

I reckon the Dickson ---> Milera trade is good. Will atleast make ya $100k before Schneider comes back and may still hold his spot the way hes going. Like Greene though how much longer can he keep it up?

It seems u r having the same trouble with Rookies as me so Colli ur normally the one id turn to  ;)

[TheHanger]

What about Howard to Alex Johnson?

[Colliwobblers]

@ ShaynoB - don't turn to me :) i got most of it right, ledger will be a gun just didnt get the run early he needed to in order to be a good pick, the fwd rooks as you say are just so unknown hall dickson both mature aged looked solid picks not turning out great, smedts hyped up going average, milera came from nowhere and has scored well but JS? the gws rooks are all a roll of the dice in JS and game time..... Pity we don't have 10 magners to fill all our rookie spots hey :)

@ TheHanger - nicely spotted, I obviously won't make the trades until late in the week, might have to look into this guy could ba a handy unique in a top 6 side going well so far isn't he....

[Ajax22]

Well it looks like Howard has got to go and sideways to Dempsey looks the best option there

I think Ledger and Dickson can be kept for now provided they are named.
It feels like we haven't quite seen enough of them to be sure that they are duds worthy of trading.
Jmac and Neale might both pop up in the on the bubble soon if Ledger can't score and I would give him a couple more weeks to prove himself before panicking on that one.
Dickson... Eh he doesn't seem all that good but there's really noone in the fwd line screaming out to be picked just yet so if he keeps getting games just leave him on your bench and hope he comes good

[roti]

Mohr and Ebert will outscore greene and dempsey....now ive written that down im not so certain hahahah.

[Colliwobblers]

lol it's not easy to know is it

[Football Factory]

I went .. Ledger-Greene .. Howard-Dempsey

[Colliwobblers]

I went .. Ledger-Greene .. Howard-Dempsey

thanks FF - I guess the only thing arguably better would be macdonald over green due to JS and long term scoring given he has to play for them and he has to be given the ball and he at least will tackle :)

dempsey looks a trade thats set i could go ledger - greene and by the time macdonald plays his second game greene will be 300k + and due for a rest i can go greene - macdonald on macdonalds bubble....

[BC2010]

What about Howard to Alex Johnson?

Jarryn Geary also a nice cash cow.
