The way the resting is going with GWS it wouldn`t surprise me if the likes of Kennedy,Bugg and Smith are next in line for a rest.

Fair point, I think it could help their price rise in the long run too.

Surely not having Ablett will hurt you in the long-term when he comes scoring 150+?

Ablett to Jmac 8)

Easiest trade of the season if you don't have J-Mac.
Leaves plenty of cash to go magner and kennedy to premo's next week.

Interesting to hear someone who thinks Kennedy -> Treloar is a lock-in trade. GWS play Bulldogs this week, surely some big scores from their rookie guns..? Or Treloar a far better prospect?

I've got Hall and Cameron as other forward rookies, I want to give them another week for sure.


i would like to keep kennedy as he has 60k left in him, but i really rate trealor and i think he can average 70+ easy wheras kennedy im predicitng a 60+ from here on. Plus the 100k i get is vital as im going to go for my first upgrade target next week. IM brining in chappy :)

imagine if shiel, mcdonald etc.. were rested. I have 3 GWS guys in my mids and i need them. If im losing some of my players at least i should get greene back.

Windigo

Well at least Coniglio will play.  8)

Well Coniglio should be back this week then

Cayenne

After this weeks trades I'll likely have 8 gws rookies. Should be OK if up to 6 get rested.

Got easy wins in leagues this week so not too stressed, but going for overall would be nice.

Hippo

So i dont want to trade Ablett and i also want Trelour but would be getting rid of a rookie too soon to swap him for one.
Ablett would sit on the bench then!

Trade Ablett too Trelour!

Then in 2-3 weeks trade one of Kennedy/Magner/Shiels etc etc back too Ablett.

Have got Trelour but have not milked a cow too early and scored the MPP i needed from fwds to backs + the extra money from the extra 2-3 weeks of rookie price rises

Windigo

Are people seriously going to trade Ablett?  :o

Spite

Jmac wont get rested nor any senior GWS players yet.

I imagine the incoming players will be coniglio, greene, cameron, x, new player with x being a player who has already played a game and got dropped

My best guess for outs would be... kennedy, townsend (gen soreness) MAYBE shiel/smith although unlikely.

If kennedy and smith are dropped (along with shiel) that would be the greatest result for me in the history for DT I think :P Having mccarthy as m5 and porps as f6 would allow me to play jmac and treloar and hopefully shoot up the rankings.

Interesting idea, however  with what looks like alot of GWS rookies getting rested i might trade one of them instead. But because your not replacing ablett with a premium your not going to gain any points of the rest of the pack. For that reason i think yo9u shoudl trade a guy like kennedy instead.

If your trading ablett it would have to be for a guy like rocky, chappy etc.. in my opinion.
