An interesting issue from a trading perspective. Currently have him, are you guys trading or holding?

If trading then downgrade to mid price like greene could work out great

or

If holding then you get slight price rise but lose out on greene thoughts? perhaps you might be able to snag zorko or neale when they come back, assuming your giving parker a few more goes.

thoughts?

DTmagician

sorry downgrade from mid price to someone like greene

BBosCo

im giving him a few more games. could still average 80 and be an easy upgrade come rd 7-8. if not, McDonald has two more games until a price rise so i will trade parker staight to him.

Got rid of my midpricers after rd 1 ... Hale/Parker for Stanton/Milera (worked out nice).

Parker will get a few good scores and make you a little cash but remember rd 1 he may have just cracked the ton if he didn't get vested/injured but he was only playing GWS.

I would downgrade to Greene who will make you cash and also free up some money to get a true premium in.

i am keeping him, but getting rid of Hale as he is no good

His point per minute ratio is quite good (better than Adam Goodes who is averaging 83). It's really a matter of if he will now get the opportunity to put in a few 90%+ gamtime scores or if he will remain a bit player and vest candidate.

I've decided to trade but it wouldn't surprise me at all if that proves to be a premature decision.

DTmagician

who are you trading to mr.craig

(Sigh) Greene. I feel like a sheep but what ya gonna do? Really need that money.

DTmagician

yes well was thinking same parker to greene, but currently have 240k in bank, some extra would be nice, would put me in good position for future upgrades. is that still worth it?, he may have a good run against port.

if any case ill be doing the parker>greene trade and pocketing 350k+

Whats the difference between hold and keep in your poll?? You cant just say keep for rest of season if you mean hold to trade next round and keep for rest of season. Hold and keep seem thee same otherwise??

Anyways, id say keep(or hold or whatever) for now atleast.
He still has great potential and has been a bit unlucky. If he doesnt work out you can always trade to old mac(the one who started this madness!) or another late playing rookie come round 3 or 4.

You picked him for a reason and he hasnt had a LTI so you should stick with your initial decision, give this awesome bloke another chance.

P.S. i don't have him
Whatever decision you end up making, good luck with it and also for the rest of the season.

Keep him and save the trade mate. you already have plenty of cash in the kitty.. I think he will be worth it in the long run and a perfect trade option after the byes :)

looking at the game on the weekend, its obvious that his role has changed and will play more on the wing (off the ball) and will return on the ball in about a month.

He will get 50-60 for a couple of weeks before it increases

Would you upgrade him to Thompson or hold for a bit and upgrade big O to Kreuz instead?

Depends on what your plans are. If you can upgrade him to Thompson sure with thomo's draw why not.But i am going to hold on to Parker and eventually have him as M7 as a reserve mid

Glad i held on to him now
