Felstys 2013 Supercoach Season Diary - please comment!

[Ringo]

Staker could be the sub is which I would be wary about getting him this round.

[felsty]

Does it matter though Ringo? I would rather he be sub this round than next.. Still I can't help but feel uneasy about this weeks trades. Something just doesn't feel right and I'm not sure what it is

Anyone have any options for me from left field?

B: Goddard, Heppell, Hartlett, Terlich, Goodes, Stevenson (Heath, Gibbs)
M: Ablett, Pendlebury, Dangerfield, Watson, JPK, OMeara, Evans, Neade (Viney, Crouch)
R: Jacobs, Luenberger (Gawn, Hannath)
F: Franklin, Cox, Rockliff, Stevie J, JJKennedy, Mayes (Maccafer, Rowe)

$11k

Perhaps the lack of rookies and lack of cash makes it the perfect week to ditch Hartlett for Hanley and still get rid of Neade to make some money.. Hopefully Stevenson doesn't fall too much in price

[Ringo]

Will you be able to play around when Brisbanes subs are announced as I suspect if Staker not sub Mayes will be. So you may have to do some adjusting.

With Heath not being named I would Heath to Staker rather than Stevenson.

If you are not intent in keeping Hartlett then I would do the sideways trade as second trade as Hartlett will bleed cash.

[felsty]

Ill be able to change it up.. But the only reason ill be getting Staker is to downgrade rookies for money..

Neade has to go out regardless as I see Kennedy as a pretty good cash cow, and if I got rid of Hartlett for Hanley, then the next round I would double downgrade Stevenson and Heath to Thurlow and Staker, instead of my original plan which was to upgrade one of them to Birchall..

Choice 1 - double downgrade - Stevenson/Heath > Staker, Neade > Bennedy - week after - Stevenson/Heath > Thurlow, Mayes > Birchall
Choice 2 - get rid of Hamish - Hartlett > Hanley, Neade > Bennedy - week after - Stevenson > Thurlow, Heath > Staker

Which looks better. I get my team completed a round early by going Choice 1 but still have Hartlett in my side

I think Hartlett will bounce back.. Can't do much worse than he already is so I'm willing to hold, even though I am going for overall

[tor01doc]

Gibbs and Neade out and Staker in gives you enough for any premium mid??

[tor01doc]

An extra on field gun mid will help you up the overall.

Gibbs will be cheaper in a couple of weeks as well.

[felsty]

Waste of a trade. Would have been good three weeks ago but he will be back soon enough!
Hartlett on the other hand..

[felsty]

Hartlett > Staker, Neade > Cotchin, $66k remaining

[tor01doc]

I think you are better off with Gibbs than Hartlett.

Good luck.

[felsty]

cheers doctor.. need to try something to get me back up the rankings.. dont like trading out a premium but i feel like im falling behind a fair bit right now

[tor01doc]

Yes felsty, the rankings.

My team is very rank!  ::)

All I need now is Buddy to be rested.

[felsty]

Neade or Mayes out?

[Ringo]

Toss a coin Felsty both have a b/e of 60+ Only $6k difference in price as well.

[felsty]

took neade out.. either would have been good, neade in my fwds as a round 13 bye player or mayes in the mids as a round 11 bye player, but in the end i chose mayes. js looks quite assured and handles himself well, when im not sure if Jakey will need a rest at some point..

Hartlett > Staker, Neade > Cotchin

[felsty]

B: Goddard, Gibbs, Heppell, Staker, Terlich, Goodes (Stevenson, Heath)
M: Ablett, Pendlebury, Watson, JPK, Danger, Cotchin, OMeara, Viney (Crouch, Evans)
R: Jacobs, Luenberger (Gawn, Hannath)
F: Franklin, Cox, Rockliff, Stevie J, JJKennedy, Mayes (Macaffer, Rowe)

well i feel that things conspired against me this week.. scoring hurts when you have two premiums out in gibbs and stevie j.. probably could have added another 150 points on to what i already had..

Trades this week...                    Stevenson > Thurlow
                                               Heath > Webster
                                                                                      $350k in the kitty
Make some money to get me NicNat next week
as well as a downgrade to Menzel if he hangs around

hard to bring in blokes before the round after that so i may just sit or perhaps downgrade

trades im looking at in bye round..

Evans > NicNat

Round 11 / Terlich > Hanley, Viney > Birchall
Round 12 /OMeara > Mitchell/Selwood
Round 13 / Goodes > Swan, Macaffer > Shaw

Would leave a team of..

B: Goddard, Gibbs, Heppell, Hanley, Birchall, Shaw
M: Ablett, Pendlebury, Watson, JPKennedy, Danger, Mitchell, Swan, Cotchin
R: Jacobs, Luenberger
F: Cox, NicNat, JJK, Stevie J, Rockliff, Franklin

there will be a few trades left over to upgrade blokes like JJK and Jacobs if i can but ill reassess that when i come to it

Rookies I see as potential bench keeps.. Gawn, Macaffer, Goodes?, Staker, Viney?
