Need to Use Trades.. But where??

Elcapitano · August 11, 2014, 04:37:30 PM

So I've managed to Win All 4 of my $$ Leagues.. Got the week off, & in the 'Very' Fortunate position to still have..

5 trades and $360,900

So I Need to use 1 trade this week.. What would you do..
Baring in mind I have no games this week & maximizing loophole strategies for the last 2 Finals..

Def: McVeigh, Malceski, Swallow, Simpson, Mitchell (L Thompson, Georgiou)

Mids: Pendlebury, Selwood, Beams, Ward, Fyfe, Rockliff, Parker, Miles (Hartung, Spina)

Ruck: Sandilands, Mumford (Brown, King)

Fwds: Dangerfield, D Martin, Gray, Roughead, Zorko, S Martin (Taylor, Lennon)

With Roughie out I would strongly consider upgrading Taylor or Hartung. Jobe Watson would be a nice addition.

I'd look at trading Hartung/Taylor > Premium and bring Parker forward

Then you can have a nice loophole of either Miles in the mids or Martin up forward

Then keep your next 4 trades for your 'hopefully' 2 finals games

With Swans draw I'd be looking at Buddy and JPK.

Then loop the loop! Well done having 5 trades and 360K by the way - I'm jealous ::)

Taylor to JPK/Priddis. Then swap Parker forward and use Zorko as your bench cover in the Mids/Forwards swapping with Spina.

Next week Miles to Stevie J. Has an awesome record against his last two opponents and thanks to his showerty score last week, will be almost a straight swap for Miles.

Would leave you with Zorko as cover for Mids/Forward and still with 3 trades left to deal with Injuries or any other swaps you might want to make in the last two rounds.

I agree Taylor to JPK/Priddis/Sloane this week is no.1 trade...

If I bring in JPK or Sloane I'd be left with $140k

As far as Stevie J... I'm not convinced he can return to his big scores, a lot of teams have now seen what they need to do to get under his skin..

What about Mummy to Jacobs?
I know it's sideways but the way they are both playing could be a 30+pt gain

Just do the 1 upgrade trade this week and maybe 1 money trade. Your def needs good cover so I would look at upgrading Georgiou to premo.

I'm locking in Taylor to Sloane this week.. It was him or JPK, with Sloanes low BE and JPK's high that made my choice.

As Far as no Def cover.. Do I need it? It seems wasted using $$ to have a Premo sitting on the bench..
With Zorko covering Mid/Fwd
SMartin Fwd/Ruck
& 4 spare trades (it will be 3 if I upgrade Miles to JPK)
that to me is pretty good coverage for any Defenders getting injured or being rested..
Do u agree??

Somewhat agree. You have plenty of trades so upgrade Miles and Taylor. Can u get Sloane & JPK?

Elcapitano · August 14, 2014, 06:29:33 PM

Yeah I can afford both trades this week..
But would it be better to hold off on the 2nd trade (Miles to JPK) this week..
so I have 2 trades for both weeks (if I make the Final) as I'm not playing any games this week.
