Scotland vs Carrazzo

[Bill Manspeaker]

i have a topic in the Rate My Dream Team section where i thought i had my trade problem solved but i forgot i'd be able to afford Scotland.. so here's a poll to try to help me out!

cheers

[nostradamus]

both if you can manage it, but if its just a choice between the 2 of 'em........carrazzo's value is too good to refuse

[Bill Manspeaker]

i wish i could get 'em both in but it's for my last spot

Deledio, Goddard, Broughton, Birchall, H.Shaw, Waters, Scotland/Carrazzo     (S.Shaw, Darley)


if i have a spare trade i might look at maybe Broughton -> whichever one i don't choose

[charliesheen]

I think they will average similar numbers.  Would go Carrots because I think he has more upside, but Scotland more proven.

l understand your frustration with broughts, my backline is......

Godd, Deledio, Waters, Scotland, Carrazzo, H.Shaw, Broughts......but if l do a luxury trade later on it'll be broughts to birch

[Fireballz]

Do Carrots mate he's as consistent as Scotland but cheaper so you can use that money for your next trade

[HBTD22]

Definitely Carrots for me.

[Gurans]

at that price... get carrots in for suuure

[fertalong]

Carrots for higher value and higher ceiling.
Scotland is better for consistency, but they will avg the same for the remainder of the year so it doesn't matter. GO CARROTS!

Yeah ideally you woild have both but I can't see where you would fit the other in apart from for Broughton. I'd go carrots simply because he is cheaper, they will average very similarly from now on.

Funny how people have turned sour on Broughton again and sell with caution as Morabito and Fyfe returning should free him up again. With defenders generally crashing in price and letting us down (I won't say under-performing but it's been that along with injury/suspension), Broughton was worth the keep. I ended up doing:

Broughton -> Marty Clarke (after round 2) -> Sam Shaw after round 11, and now I'm stuck season-long with Shaw on the bench along with Darley.

I don't think it was worth the 2 trades as Broughton has done better than the blokes I used the cash to "upgrade" to (Heath Shaw & Suckling), but mind you the process did in total raise me $450k. Wish I had instead took the really gutsy move and sell an LTI-affected premium for a rookie. We've all had a couple of chances this season to do that...

pretty even poll.. 11-9 in favour of Carrazzo..
i reckon i'm gonna go with Carrots, leaving me with a bit of cash leftover for a Giles -> Cox trade later in the season
