Ask Jayman

Hey Jayman. I'm currently sitting 32nd overall, and I have Swan, and not Pendlebury. Pendlebury is looking the goods, and Swan is looking a bit off-the-mark so far. Should I burn two trades and downgrade a bench player in order to do a straight swap from Swan->Pendles, or wait a few weeks for some cows to moo, and trade him in then?

Hey mate,

Trading Kreuzer and not sure who to go for out of Jacobs and Goldstein? Already have Maric and don't have enough for McEvoy.

Im leaning towards Jacobs because he hasn't been playing that well and hes still scoring 100s, and im a little worried about Goldstein when they bring in the second ruck. (Currie, Daw) Who do you think is the best long term option?

Hey Jayman, I've got 4 choices after Kommer's untimely suspension. I can hold him, trade him to Crouch, bring in a premium mid for him (I can afford any), or swap Goodes to the midfield and bring in Hutchins. What are your thoughts? Cheers.

Surely the trade could be better spent elsewhere? I see the difference between Swan and Pendles being marginal. I'd hold at the moment on that trade mate

Aye, I agree. Just wanted another opinion. Just disappointed I chose Swan over Pendles from the beginning. That's cost me a little bit - hopefully I'm not too far away to have a shot at the lead.

Hey Jayman

Got a Byrnes problem in my forwards with two solutions I can see just wondering what u think is better:

1. Trade this week to Sinclair and play 2 of Dwyer/Neade/Macaffer/Rowe/Sinclair on field

2 Let him play this week against GWS, still has a BE of 35 and then look to Lee/Mayes if he doesn't pull his finger out, also means Rowe is not an onfield option being stuck on my Ruck bench

Gotta go Sauce mate! Consistent, durable and can go huge as seen by last years showdown where he simply dominated. Lock him in, you wont be disappointed

Are you going for overall? If so get the premium mid! Wow you must have heaps in the bank.

If league then maybe get Crouch? Will help your upgrading later on in crunch time

LF · April 15, 2013, 11:38:46 PM

Hey Jayman

In a bit of trouble this week with Kruezer,Kommer,Embley thinking my best solution is
Hold Kommer
Cox to rucks trade Kruezer to Rowe
The Embley to any premo I want and I'll still have at least $402k left in the bank
Rucks would be
Jacobs,Cox,Blicavs,Daw

Forwards
Bartel,Rocky,JJK,LeCras,Bewick,Rowe,Neade,MacCaffer

Mids
Ablett,Pendles,Swallow,Jack,??,O'Meara,Viney,Jones,Kommer,Dwyer

Thoughts on this move thanks.

I prefer option 2. Could go large this week and gives you a look at some more rookies. Not sold on Sinclair yet...

Babylove · April 16, 2013, 10:28:16 AM

Hi Jayman,
I need a bit of help this week. I've already traded Zorko to Franklin this week leaving me 1 trade and $30k in the bank.

I also have Kommer & Karnezis and am wondering what I can do with them. Kommer has been scoring well when he's got a full game but will he get back into the team once his suspension is finished. If I trade him the obvious choice is Crouch.

Karnezis is a more difficult proposition. If he doesn't play there's no rush price wise but I may not have a playing forward on the bench with Macaffer also in my team. My inclination with him if I trade him is to downgrade him to a rookie which gives me the options of Lee, Mayes & Sinclair. (My other forwards are Cox, Kennedy, Dwyer & Neade & my Rucks are Maric, Leuenberger, Blivacs and Rowe).

So should I trade and if so who for who?

I think Karnezis is more of a must go than Kommer. That leaves you with Lee, Mayes and Sinclair. Personally I like Tommy Lee. Wont be a huge scorer but was all the rage in the preseason and should have decent JS at the Saints :)

KoopKicka · April 16, 2013, 10:41:53 AM

Hey Jay, what should I do with Koby Stevens? Hold onto him or cash in for another mid rook (who?)

Current Midfield: Ablett, Pendlebery, Kennedy, Deledio, Kornes, Wines, O'Meara, Viney (Stevens, Crouch)

Could go Blicavs to Rowe and Stevens - ?

Stumped :/

Hey koop

nice midfield :o Could you move like Dwyer or Goodes into your midfield and get Tom Lee or Hutchins? Just a thought
