Should I be making more trades this week?

lukebomber · June 12, 2013, 11:35:17 PM

With my team almost being complete and i have plenty of cash in the bank, should i make another, I've already traded in birchall and hrovat and my team is:
Def: Goddard, Heppell, hibbered, hartlett, Birchall, laird (Thurlow, Docherty)
Mids: Ablett, Pendles, Watson, Swan, Dangerfeild, Cotchin, Priddis, T.Mitchell (Hrovat, Kennedy)
Rucks: Maric, Nicholls (Rowe, Currie)
Fwrds: Cox, Bartel, Johnson, Rockliff, Nic Nat, JJK (Macaffer, Staker)
Trades left 11
Cash: $389,000
any advice will be cheered :)

JJK to Martin wouldn't hurt but other than that all the other lines are perfect. I think you have enough trades to do another one.

Could sub Cox or NicNat with Rowe, then trade Rowe out, move Kennedy into your forwards, and bring in K Martin.

I was looking at getting Walker into my forward line over martin, but because he has the bye next week I might have to avoid. the rowe trade is an option, but is it really worth it? It'd generate some cash for me, but next week without the ruck/forward link, and martin has the bye next week, which doesn't help my mids bye structure as my top 5 mids already have the bye?

Which Kennedy is it? I want to say Ben because then I'd encourage a JJK to Griffin trade moving Kennedy forward would boost your fire power in round 13 as well as giving you a current top 8 mid and I'd imagine he would stay there.

Yeah it is ben, that's a great point there about griffen, hadn't considered him yet!!

Has a low BE so it's this week or you'll pay a fair bit extra. Averaging 145.5 over the last 4 games which is ridiculous for 600k,

Yeah would be a great pick, but my only concern would be that tom mitchell would just be sitting on the bench, which i feel he is far to good for!

Hmm, quite the pickle, who did you trade in for Hrovat and Birchall?

lukebomber · June 13, 2013, 12:58:33 PM

Crouch for hrovat and terlich for birchall, always planned to offload terlich for birch this week

How about you keep Crouch for at least another week with a BE of -23 (unless I'm missing something, is he injured) and instead we go JJK to Hrovat (moving Kennedy forward) will give you plenty of cash to upgrade Macaffer next week would improve your choices adding the likes of a cheaper Dusty, Stokes, Riewoldt and more.

If I were you I'd prob get rid of Currie or Rowe for a premo ruck. That could prob wait a week tho for when Nicholls has his bye. I don't think you've got any reason to trade JJK yet.. he's been doing well. He could prob be a late upgrade before finals if you have the trades then?
