rohan upgrade

[bunyips]

Hey all,

As you can see I have a few issues this week in the forwards with two injuries. I was just short of Roughead so these are the next few players I think might go ok...


I posted a few weeks ago about forward trades but I eventually traded Thomas and Tyson into my mids. As Rohan is a sub candidate now he has to go.

Thoughts?



DEF: J. McVeigh, S. Mitchell, D. Swallow, M. Suckling, L. McDonald, J. Laidler (W. Langford, T. Langdon)
MID: G. Ablett jnr, S. Pendlebury, T. Liberatore, D. Beams, M. Thomas, D. Tyson, J. Aish, J. Polec (X. Ellis, L. Dunstan)
RUC: T. Hickey, A. Sandilands (T. Derickx, F. Thurlow)
FWD: P. Dangerfield, D. Martin, C. Wingard, L. Dahlhaus, S. Higgins, G. Rohan (J. Impey, J. Kennedy-Harris)
CASH LEFT: $321,100

I ended up going with Cyril Ravioli for Rohan due to having extra cash such as yourself. He is on the bubble this week and i think over the course of the season he will be more consistant that Breust. Breust has had an awesome start to the season but Rioli stands up when it counts and not many teams seem to have him so far so he is a bit of a POD

Can you hold out until next week with Fasolo being on the bubble?  Wingard was obviously picked as a premium so I assume you want to keep him... and you must want to keep Dalhaus if you are considering trading Rohan, so I'd either consider Lewis Taylor (fairly sideways I know, just personally think he will improve and the DPP may come in handy during the byes)..... or, and I stress a very big or!... have you considered riding the Buddy rollercoaster?  He is def not going to be posting 130's each week, but I can see him improving his average to 90/100 (yeah, I'm a little ambitious there perhaps but on past experiences well within his reach) and he is priced at 475k (12.5k down on starting price) his BE is 76, and he has the potential for some massive scores (remember a previous match against North?)  A little out there I know, but food for thought....

Yeah Cyril is a great player but will pass due to his injury history.  breust I'm not sure on at all - does he get a run though the midfield at all?

Yeah planning to hold onto dalhaus and Wingard... I think they will be back soon.

Fasolo could be an option as is the Richmond rookie next week... Might end up doing that good point.

Ha! Nah not planning to ride the buddy rollercoaster this year ...

I have voted Parker averaging 105 so far this year and in a side that will be threabouts.  Completes your forward line  subject to Higgins upgrade maybe or loss of form.

JKH or Impey to Lloyd in a couple of weeks will replace some of the cash used.

lol, I dont blame you!  Yeah, thinking of fasolo next week as well, into Lloyd the following (as are many i'm tipping).  still scratching my head as to whether Buckley for Mitchie is worth it this week, I've changed my mind so often this weekend...  I dont have Daisy btw, but I think he's worth keeping, at least up until the byes if you can

Thanks ringo - yeah I'm leaning towards parker as well... and bring in Lloyd in a couple of weeks.

Thought my starting forwards would be ok this year ... Ah well, ill bite the bullet and fix it - rohan is just too much of a problem.

Just found out that Hickey is also out .. looks like a tough week coming up for me  ::)

I wouldn't trade in Buckley ... Have you considered Kelly? I would myself but have already used two trades in my mids.

He could score as much as Polec/Tyson/Thomas.

Parker is the way to go. Cyril as a good choice

[Doggoneit]

I'm eyeing off Parker as a potential upgrade

he is ticking a lot of boxes
