WXV Trade Confirmation

[RaisyDaisy]

Moscow trade: Heath Shaw
New York trade: Luke McDonald and David Armitage

RD/AK to confirm

Confirmed

Heath Shaw is just the sort of premo defender we need, although giving up LMac wasn't in our initial planning, this trade works out well for both teams, and is very fair for both

[roo boys!]

Toronto Trade: Ben Brown and NAT #50
Cairo Trade: Richard Douglas

Shame to see Brown go but I don't really need him as a ruckman with Ryder and Hickey so decided he would have more value at a club looking for a ruck.

Confirmed.

With us almost certain (and maybe the Tiges) to delist Orren Stephenson and the likelihood of losing Sam Rowe (currently F/R) to being a defender, we're a bit light on rucks. Mummy never plays a full season and unless Giles seeks a trade, we're not sure how many games he'll get for the Giants in 2015 (I reckon they'll start looking to use Lobb and co) and we also like to have 3 rucks so Brown fits the bill, pick 50 evens it out while we were seeking to trade Richard Douglas since Hanley should be a pure mid next year and we'll have better mid depth.

Cairo trade: Andrew Carrazzo, Jamie Cripps and Charlie Cameron
Tokyo trade: Sam Mitchell and Pick 46

Boomzie to confirm.

Cairo trade: Andrew Carrazzo, Jamie Cripps and Charlie Cameron
Tokyo trade: Sam Mitchell and Pick 45

Boomzie to confirm.

Confirmed. Mitchell only going to go down in value and carrots is a handy get while Cripps & Cameron should develop nicely. Pick 45 just to sweeten it (just confirming it's 45 not 46).

Dublin trade: Robbie Gray
Moscow trade: Dustin Martin

im going to regret this one, I took gray off the trade table after he averaged 142 over the 4 WXV final games this year. I think Gray will keep up his scoring after his first full preseason and about to enter his second and he definately wont lose DPP but im locking in the safety of Martin who despite scoring more than 10 less a week but he is a safety pick as he seems like he will keep posting around 100.

Pacific give: Phil Davis + pick 76
Cairo give: Michael Rischitelli + Matt Thomas

They needed a defender and to cut points off their cap, we get both of those done for them. Davis isn't a world-beater but he's a solid defender. Rischi and Thomas help solidify some mid depth for us.

Confirmed.

Davis gives us a decent D4 option if we need him and we at Cairo love our late picks because of our success rate with them. Rischi isn't really needed anymore and Tank is an on-trade from PNL.

Mind you, it was Torp who made this deal so don't judge me if it goes bad :3

Mexico City Suns give: Biggs + Cutler + Lemmens
Buenos Aires Dildos give: Scott D. Thompson + Pick #36

Helps us add young kids to the list and not losing too many points on the cap.

Need to secure our ruck stocks so unfortunately we need to buy Ceglar at a premium price.

Moscow trade: Jonathon Ceglar

Seoul trade: Hayden Ballantyne + Nat 28

Seoul trade: Hayden Ballantyne + Nat 28

Confirmed!

Balla is a little ripper and adds to our forward depth (and maybe even a fringe-starter if he boosts his average a few points, which he is very much capable of). At 27 he still has much do unleash, has been a solid mid-70s average for half a decade but is looking better and better, kicking a lot of goals just has to pick up around the ground. The pick is nice too :D

Ceglar is a very talented young ruckman but tbh we didn't need him.

Our first 3 way trade

Seoul Give: Gibbs
Seoul Recieve: Jack Ziebell + Aaron Black + Nat 12
Toronto Give: Jack Ziebell
Toronto Recieve: David Mundy + Nat 75
Dublin Give: David Mundy + Aaron Black + Nat 12 + Nat 75
Dublin Get: Bryce Gibbs

reason: Its alot to give up for one player but Im trying to get the starting 15 as young as possible while keeping the same scoring output. Mundy and Gibbs I rate pretty similar but Gibbs is younger. Aaron Black I rate and wanted to keep him but JB wanted him. Nat 12 is a loss but given im going for flags not worth the risk.

[JBs-Hawks]

Confirmed!

Sucks to lose a cornerstone piece of our franchise but gone with the potential we receive and hope that Zieball can finally find some consistency and get that average out of the 80s
