Vinny's Blue Boys 2014

[Nige]

Taylor's been doing okay tbh, he's got the bye but I reckon you could hang on to for a couple more rounds and see if he makes a bit more cash after his bye.

I'd jump on Charlie though.

[Vinny]

Thanks Nige.

So you reckon Cameron has better JS than Lennon does?

Also, Lloyd any chance at coming back or trade him? He does still have a BE of -13.

Asking cause you are a TIGERS supporter, and not a GC supporter. ;)

[kilbluff1985]

many seem to think Lennon has better JS no idea why has not even played a full game yet but i think CC has better JS he looked awesome in his full game very much reminded me of Rioli

[Vinny]

Yeah I've got a couple days to decide but I think I'll grab Cameron because he is cheaper and think about Lennon next week if he is looking really good.

[Ricochet]

Go Lloyd to Cameron mate then at least you have a rookie with decent JS in Taylor at F7

[Vinny]

Yeah thanks man, banks me some more cash aswell.

Recap: Moved up about 1k which is pretty disappointing and I'm climbing slowly but steadily. If I can finish Top 2.5k, I'll be pretty happy.

This week I have gone: Fasolo to Buddy & Langdon to Selwood.

Leaves me with 11 trades and 51k. I only need one more premium defender to complete my team, Higgins will be a luxury later. So I, pretty happy with this team that's left after this weeks trades. What I need help with is a plan to bring in, McVeigh or Bartel. Any thoughts? :)

[Ricochet]

Can you maybe upgrade Langford instead of Fasolo mate? Do have concerns with Fasolo sub risk but if he hits 80 he'll only drop another 15kish and then his BE will be 55 as the that horrible 29 will drop out of his rolling average. If he can pump out the numbers he was before the injury he'll still make you some cash. I still think there is risk involved with him but its worth considering keeping him.

Then again, Buddy is looking good now

[Vinny]

That's an option man but in comparison to the forwards where you have Wingard, Buddy & NRoo. There is no options in defence that are any good around that price considering I have Hurn and Jaensch already. I'd really like Bartel for that last position. Yeah that's thing, Buddy looks a bargain with Tipett and that back in the side. Thanks Ric.

Next week, I could go: Taylor to Rookie & Langford to Premium.

The thing is, I'm not sure there is any forward rookies available next week. :-\

Maybe change the order of my trades, grab Shenton this week and move either the Selwood in or the Buddy in to next week?

So many options hahaha.

[RaisyDaisy]

Coming along very nicely Vinny

When you get your final def in, you have to make it one of McVeigh or Bartel to really strengthen that line up.

Higgins to Parker would be the finishing touch too

Looking good man!

[Vinny]

Thanks man!

Yeah those are pretty much the exact guys I want in the end, hoping I'm lucky with price rises so I can afford them, cheers. ;)

[Vinny]

Okay so I've changed my mind.

It's risky but I'm getting on Kane Mitchell. He has Melbourne & GWS in the next couple weeks. I just need him to get close to 370k.

So I've gone:
Langdon to KMitchell
Fasolo to Buddy

Leaves me with 11 trades & 370k.



Means next week I can go Langford to Bartel/McVeigh and leaves me with 150k.

Meaning when KMitchell gets to 400k, I'll go KMitchell to Premium.

Team done with 8 trades.

Thoughts?

[Ricochet]

Not a massive fan mate. Only because KMitchell could easily be used as a sub or dropped or chuck up an average score. And your plan will need him to play full games, avoid the vest, post decent scores and do it over the next couple of weeks.

[Vinny]

Yeah I know man it's risky but I can't see an alternative. After I do Langdon & Fasolo to Buddy & Selwood.

How am I going to find cash afterwards to get that last defender in to complete my team?

I really want one of Bartel or McVeigh for the last spot. :-\

[Ricochet]

What about Taylor to Shenton and upgrading Langdon to Selwood this week?
