Ask Jayman

Who do you reckon I should loophole (had Kennedy as captain), Griffen, Selwood, Bartel, Martin or Cotchin?

[Maggie May]

Hi Jayman,

I'm thinking Outside the box this week.


My team:
Def: Goddard, Shaw, Gibbs, Birchall, Goodes, Vlaustin (Brown, Thurlow)
Mid: Ablett, Pendlebury, Swan, Dangerfield, Cotchin, JP Kennedy, Watson, Mitchell (Martin, Crouch)
Ruc: Cox, Maric (Nicholls, Rowe)
Fwd: Naitinui, Johnson, Rockliff, Franklin, JK Kennedy, Macaffer (Staker, B. Kennedy)

With 10 trades left, I'm looking at trades that will finish my team rather than get myself out of trouble this week.  So this week, taking advantage of three trades I thought:
JK Kennedy to Bartel
Macaffer to Daniher
Crouch to D. Martin

Then next week I swap Martin for B. Kennedy giving me a dpp link between my mids and my forwards, and trade Thurlow to Oxley to give the dpp to Staker.  At should leave me 6 trades and $150-$180k in my bank to turn Vlaustin into Hanley/Heppell/Hibberd when they bottom out and Martin/Mitchell/ B Kennedy into a premium, with the added option of Rowe to McBean if I need extra cash.

Toovey to hear your thoughts on this.

All solid moves - go with your gut but make sure you watch out on your trades. The General always hits late in the year.... You going for league or overall?

Hi Jayman,  I'm posting under a new username due to problems with accessing my original account (I normally post under the name Babylove).  To answer your question probably a little of both, though I probably pay more attention to my overall result than league.  I only really look at my opponent once the round has started and then usually only in my first league.  I do watch how I'm fairing in terms of ladder position, but I more so look at getting the best possible score so as to boost my overall ranking.

Jobe Watson or Kieren Jack ?  ???

[Jroo]

Jobe Watson or Kieren Jack ?  ???

I've got the same dilemma Vinny. Watson is a star and has a massive ceiling while Jack is a great POD and is a awesome scorer too.
Wonder what Jay has to say about this.

Sorry lads.

Hopefully you didnt go Bartel, Dusty or Cotchin :-\

[My Chumps]

Is Colin Sylvia a legitimate option for a POD?

Scores over the last 7:
92, 103, 98, 92, 86, 100, 113.
Only 450k too.

[Mat0369]

Is it ridiculous to sideways Priddis to Watson?

[Vinny]

Kieren Jack or Jobe Watson ?

Sorry mate, just thought I'd comment again you probably didn't see me do it before.

I can bring either in for O'Meara this week.

[Big Mac]

Didn't think it deserved a thread but I still wanted to make sure i'm on the right track. This is my team.

Def: Goddard, Gibbs, Birchall, Goodes, Vlastuin, Thurlow - (EMG) Saunders, Brown
Mid: Ablett, Pendlebury, Swan, Jack, JPK, Cotchin, Priddis, Mitchell (T) - (EMG) Viney, Hrovat
Ruc: Cox, Maric - (EMG) Gawn, Nicholls
Fwd:  Bartel, JJK, Franklin, Rockliff, Johnson, Naitanui - (EMG) Staker, Daniher
Cash remaining: $564,700
Trades remaining: 8

These are the trades I have in mind to complete my team.
This week:
Vlastuin to Houli/Ibbotson
Birchall to Heppell

Next week:
Thurlow to Clisby
Brown to Hanley

Week after:
Viney to Watson

Leaving me with 3 trades and hopefully 60k. Are these the best trades I can make? It does leave me with Goodes at D6 but I'll just have to cop that I think.
