Preparing for Finals.

[Ringo]

Team is strong except for defence which we know and with 2 upgrades required in mids,
Need to plan your upgrades/downgrades so as to use minimum trades.  You will need four for finals imo.

Alright thanks for the advice mate ! Cheered you :) Yeah I'm hoping I can get the team done.
Martin, Mitchell, Nicholls and Hrovat should all make very decent cash :)
They will be critical in finishing off my team along with the JS of my defender rookies.

[Vinny]

Hey boys ! :)


D- Birchall, Gibbs, Goddard, Goodes, Staker, Docherty ( Thurlow, Wilson )
M- Ablett, JPK, Swan, Cotchin, Selwood, O'Meara, Kmartin, TMitchell ( Colq , Hrovat )
R- Cox, Goldstein ( Witts, Nicholls )
F- JJK, Zorko, Franklin, Rockliff, Stevie J, Naitanui ( Daniher, Garner )

11 Trades - $156,400 left

What do you all reckon I should do this week ?

[Mat0369]

I have looked at this thread a few times and I am stumped on what to do. 3 midfield spots to upgrade, at least 2 defender spots to upgrade, not a ton of cash and 11 trades. I think the first thing I would look at if I was you is Thurlow to Clisby if he plays this week to free up some more cash. Then look at going O'Meara to the cheapest possible premium option that will rise back up in price. Sam Mitchell, Swallow, Boyd and Watson are the options here. Watson the most expensive and most proven, Mitchell the cheapest off a poor week. It is pretty much a week by week proposition trying to get that back half and midfield at its most effective.

[Vinny]

Yeah I know, it's a bit of a struggle but Ill see what I can do.

This week, I'm going:
O'Meara > Watson

Might just wait on Thurlow and pray his named but its unlikely.

[Mat0369]

It is an interesting predicament. You don't have much security with your bottom defender as you have 3 guys who could be in and out of the team. When teams are announced that might be the best time to look at it.

Hey mate, team is not bad juts a few upgrades in defence and mids !
I would go.  O'Meara - Boyd ( Next two matches are melbourne and Gws )
And Thurlow to clisby

In a week or so
Kmart - Hunter and Staker - Shaw or someone !

[Ringo]

Similar to Matt I have been trying to work out something that will advantage team.  Sorry to be a little blunt but with having dead wood in Colq, Garner, Witts a little hard to gain cash without sideways moves and with only a few Rookies making cash a little hard.

Like the O'Meara to Watson move but will deplete cash.

If Thurlow not named would look at Thurlow to Clisby if named.

Still need 2 upgrades in Defence and Mids,

[Vinny]

Alright Cheers guys.

I might just have to sit tight until some of my rookies make more money.

Cheered all of you :)

[Mat0369]

Joey or Mitchell as bargain options

[Vinny]

Hmm I'm not convinced with Joey and Mitchell. Is Fyfe a good option with Barlow out ?

I would sit this week.

O'Meara is set to increase about $18000.

Daniher, Nicholls, Martin, Mitchell and Wilson will eventually make you a fortune. A lot more than any premium will rise.

My point being, unless you are absolutely desperate for a few extra points this very week, you'll be better wating for your cash cows to rise in price, making premium targets more affordable.

The only premium with a significant price rise predicted this week is H Shaw.

I'd sit.

Cheers

Fyfes scores this season: 96, 127, 129, 103, 93, 111, 128, 108, 77, 131

Montangas scores this season: 98, 102, 114, 111, 125, 81, 137, 134, 67, 115, 143

The 67 was in the North game where as a team the Saints were completely dominated. There is not much of a difference between the 2 in terms of scoring and price. You would expect Fyfe to get more attention with Barlow out.

[Vinny]

Alright thanks mate !

Got one more night to weigh my choices.

Fyfe does have a sweet finals draw.
Joey slightly more consistent but tough finals draw.

I shall start a poll !

I'll cheer you every hr for the next day for putting in the effort to help out :)

[Vinny]

What to do about Birchall ?
