SUBJECT: URGENT HELP, WILL CHEER!

geoffmack · August 05, 2013, 11:19:09 PM

Community, need your help, I'n in a QF and my opponents pods are:

T Lee scored 43, Cotch (v), Enright, Gibbs, Terlich, Ablett (c), Hibberd, JJK, Boomer, Goldstein, Mundy, Maine.

ME before trading: Hanley, Staker, Dusty, SJ, Minson, Swan (c), Cloke, Clisby, McKenzie, Ablett (v), JOM, Jobe, plus my trade: Griff/Sandi/??

IDEAS: Trade Nic Nat move dwyer fwd IN Griffen seems smart. Will lose the mid fwd swing eligibility but do I need it?

Dangerfield BE 181 scares me a bit. JOM is playing melbourne, could he potentially get 100?? save him for one week?

Save a vital trade for 1 more week?

Ive got 3 trades and $426,200 left.

LOVE YOUR IDEAS! :D

I would double trade mate !
Nic Nat - Scott Thompson through Staker
Clisby - Shaw.

O Meara appears to be cooked so do that trade.

I would also do Thurlow to Shaw this week to counter some of his defence POD and then sit to use last trade when needed.

WOW use 2 trades, was nothing I thought of.

Leaving 1 trade for 2 possibly 3 rounds is a bit risky??

JOM is the big one, he needs to go.
Then I would consider either upgrading Dwyer, leaving Mitchell as your bench cover.
I would leave NicNat because you have Nicholls as cover. Cox/Minson go down, bring Nicholls straight on. A fwd goes down, swap Cox into fwd line and bench NicNat for Nicholls.
Upgrading one of your backline benchies would be the next though. If you upgrade Webster/Thurlow then you will have solid bench cover so you shouldn't need those last trades.

Hodge is out. ;)

Agree JOM needs to go. Was thinking Griffen? At his price he is attractive n playing Carlton he could tear it up. That would leave $300,700. Add Dwyer to that and I have $675,600. Grab someone $570k would leave approx $100k and 1 trade. A bit short for a def upgrade?

tor01doc · August 06, 2013, 10:57:13 AM

How about

OUT with T Mitchell (O'Meara is better) and Thurlow

IN with Griffen and Dixon.

Leaves you one trade the following week if needed plus enough cash to get someone like A Walker into M8 for O'Meara.

tor01doc · August 06, 2013, 10:59:48 AM

Or get rid of O'Meara this week and T Mitchell the following as it is better with regards BE's and may allow an extra $20000 to get say Fyfe instead of Walker.

What about...
JOM to Griffen = 300k in bank
Dwyer to A.Walker = 177k in bank
Then look at maybe Scotland?

Im thinking JOM this week, due to BEs. Love the Thurlow to dixon move!!! Would leave $89k. 1 trade.

def cover: check
mid cover: check
ruck cover: (nicholls...)
fwd cover: (nic nat dpp)

geoffmack · August 06, 2013, 11:30:37 AM

Fellas, I keep thinking 2 trades this week leaves only one for 2-3 weeks of finals. Am I leaving myself a bit short?

tor01doc · August 06, 2013, 12:47:58 PM

Yes and no.

If you want Dixon and Griffen IN and O'Meara out, then BE's demand acting this week - if you want enough money left over to grab another premium later if needed.

Of course you could get someone like Fyfe or even Barlow and save some money.

or Scotland?

You certainly could wait, just check your prices and BE's.

geoffmack · August 06, 2013, 06:27:50 PM

Doc I'm leaning definitely to JOM to Griffen. His avg is too good to pass up n he's playing the blues who have just that, the blues. Could tear it up. Second trade I'm mulling over.
