Buddy and Hanley

littleblueboy2906 · July 25, 2013, 09:59:22 PM

Hey guys this is my side what are your thoughts on what I should do with the big Bud, is he worth keeping, will he pull out some big scores or should I look to swing Stevie J forward and bring in a gun mid like Barlow.. (what I was planning to do) Also what to do with Hanley? Cop him being out and play Clisby it is so risky

6 trades 233,600k in the salary

BACKS: Goddard, Heppell, Hibberd, McKenzie, Gibbs, Hanley (Clisby, NWright)
MIDS: Ablett, Pendles, Swan, Jelwood, JPK, Mundy, Stevie J, T.Mitchell (Crouch, Kmart)
RUCKS: Minson, McEvoy (Nicholls, Currie)
FWDS: Walker, Cox, Martin, JJK, Rockliff, Franklin (Staker, Rowe)

Clicking trade on Buddy then swapping Stevie J forward I can bring in a mid for 704k (still need extra money to upgrade Mitchell in a few weeks) Then with 5 trades left i could hold hanley or trade.. Thoughts hold or trade buddy and hanley

I would go

Hanley - Cyril ? Reckon he is going to explode.
Franklin - Griffen

would depend on your match ups but I would hold Hanley for a week to see what his injury prgoress is like. Buddy could go, personally I'm holding him as he's lost so much value it's not really worth it, plus you don;t want to be the guy without him when he explodes. Going to loophole where I can though (thank you Mr. Bartel for that opportunity this week, sneaky Daniher got himself named).

However as Jackross said you could get Griffen in - his BE is 150 odd so will likely be cheaper next week But I reckon if you add Griffen and Barlow to that midfield you'll carve up most teams there. Griffen for Franklin this week, Barlow for T.Mitch next week??

I would also hold Hanley as Clisby will give good coverage especially if you do not have to win next 2 games to stay in Top 8 in leagues.

I would probably hold Buddy for a week as well as if he does not get up for a game against the Bombers he never will. Both Franklin and Griffen have high B/e so will not lose anything waiting the week.

So basically I am saying sit for the week as team is strong and with 6 trades you are in a better position than a lot of others.

Cheers for the ideas guys, Jackross how could I get Cyril in for Hanley

Think I may hold Hanley play Clisby am 1st, 4th, 2nd, 4th and 5th in all my leagues so doing OK, Clisby should do the job for Hanley. Think Buddy will have to go though, then as GCSkiwi said T.Mitch for barlow next week...

Click the ' T ' on Hanley. Then when it redirects to the new page press the ' S ' on Staker and Bring Cyril in.

^ what he said. But I would like to re-iterate that there is not a long enough barge pole for me to go near Cyril "Ouch-I-pinged-a-hammy-AGAIN" Rioli. If bringing in a forward I think your best choice is Roughy...

But yeah I'm honestly not sure I would trade at all if I were you. The options I presented were ideas if you wanted to get rid of Buddy, but personally if I had that team I would sit tight. Pity you can't loophole Buddy but I'd give him a run. As Ringo says he and Griffen both have similar BE so there's not net loss really. Next week if you still don't ant him, T.Mitch and Buddy for Griffen and Barlow. Doesn't sound like any of your games are must-wins...

Hold.

You'll be glad when finals comes around and you still have trades left.

Be patient.
