Ask Q (29/6/12)

[Master Q]

You guys know hot it works! Ask me a question and I'll give you my honest opinion!

Deadline: 6:20 PM EST (Sorry for the shortness)

D. Smith & JMac > Gibson & Boyd or Beams?
Or perhaps another option?

Also start M Williams or Gibson?
Unsure on Gibson being named sub again.

Hey Q, love the work (gave a cheer too)

I currently have 8 trades and $354,700 left. One thing is for certain - I'm getting Maric into my team this week, but who should I dump? My rucks are Cox, Giles (Stephenson, Redden).

Here are my scenarios:

Stephenson to Maric leaves me $33,700 left. If I want to trade Clarke to Carrazzo (D7) next week - which I do - I need to get Campbell in for Redden or find another downgrade elsewhere. That would leave me with 5 trades and $80-100K.

Giles to Maric leaves me with $153,700 left. Allows me to upgrade Clarke to Carrazzo next week and still have $70-80K left but that extra trade. Just no ruck cover that's all. Could downgrade to Campbell if I wanted to though.

What are your thoughts Q? (and everybody else?!) Thanks

Hey Q!

This week, should i upgrade Giles to Maric or Goldstein? The thing is that getting Maric in will mean i have to use 2 trades this week instead of the 1 i would have to to get Goldstein. I am a little worried that with Mcintosh returning he may take some of Goldy's ruck time, therefore affeciting his scores. Is it worth using 2 trades to get Maric in?

I'd lean to Boyd - plus Beams is also a FWD so he could sneak into a lot of teams later.

Williams...

Well Big O and Redden are pretty good cover, plus a lot of teams have dumped Giles because who wants him as R3? I'd trade Giles.

Basically only problem is deciding who to play from Sexton and Dickson. I usually wouldnt question Dickson but i think he may get a vest this week...

I think it's worth the risk!

Ok thanks, just another quick question. So to get Maric in i have to downgrade either the Big O or Redden to Campbell. Which one do you reckon?

Scott Thompson worth the punt as a smokey captain? Or is it just too hard to go past Swan and Ablett?

[Blairholt]

Trade or Hold Zaha?
