    Roound 12 Discussion and Trades

    Completely agree with this, especially 'don't ruin your team structure purely to get 18+ players on-field in each bye week' I was looking at having 18 playing, now with injuries and possible selections I might be looking at 15/16. With trades/cash generation already beyond tight for most, I'm...

    Round 11 Discussion and Trades

    'Constable felt his groin in the early stages in the VFL and is awaiting assessment.', listed as TBC, quote from AFL website/injury list. The double downgrade is tempting. Scrimshaw to Hinge seems obvious. Assuming Constable is set to miss a couple of weeks, a trade to O Baker looks decent. I...

    Round 10 Discussion and Trades

    I can go Duursma & Gibbons (or Drew) to Stewart & R Young (move Drew to Mid), $10k short being able to go Parker instead of Gibbons. This helps week my 1 bye structure and hopefully I can trade my way through, having a non player on each line atm is concerning. Next week would probably be move...

    Round 9 Discussion & Trades

    Constable as a late in for Atkins would be nice for me. Thinking Gibbons/Constable & Walsh to Kelly & Stocker/Hately (if playing...), slap the C on Kelly, VC Grundy I'm happy with my trade situation (20 after this round), but I'm getting very concerned at cash generation. If things go to plan...

    Round 9 Discussion & Trades

    Ideally for me (and all who have him) he plays till Rd 13, then I can get Mummy and O'Brien to Gawn + Cash and also having 2 rucks play each bye round which could be very handy, I just cant see him lasting more than a couple of weeks at best assuming Jacobs is fit in the next couple...

    Round 9 Discussion & Trades

    His 123 cycles out after this week and the 66 just scored remains for the next 2. Jacobs was listed as 2-3 weeks before the round just gone started, If he comes back in the next 1-2 weeks, then O'Brien's cash generation could effectively be done after this coming round (the week after is likely...

    Round 8 Discussion and Trades

    That's the other side of the argument, obviously there isn't really a correct answer at this stage and it is dependent on each teams situation and how it actually plays out. I don't think it makes sense while you have other rookies that are at a much better price point that aren't going to make...

    Round 8 Discussion and Trades

    I don't mind Option 3 (not sure how it impacts bye structure etc). You might lose some cash gain with Drew but doubt it will be much, you might save more getting rid of Libba this week. If you don't get rid of him now you are hoping he strings together 4-5 great games soon to get his price back...

    Round 8 Discussion and Trades

    Looks at team selections...flips the table 2 down isn't really an option for me now with no Hately, Currently have 3 defenders not playing and assuming danger doesn't play, no bench cover anywhere. Whitfield comes back next week you would think, for me Ridley has to go as I like the Moore DPP...

    Round 8 Discussion and Trades

    Based on all of the headaches team selections has given us recently, seems more than a bit pointless to bother looking at potential trades until Thursday evening! Assuming both are named, a double downgrade to Hately and Answorth seems like a solid strategy to me considering there doesn't seem...

    Round 7 discussion & trades

    I've got Walsh M6, Constable M7 and M8 was usually a gamble between Cousins, Butters and Scott. If Scott doesn't get a game I can loophole Butters/Gibbons/Hayes to potentially minimise any damage also. It's definitely a weakness at M8, but don't think an overly uncommon one plus think I'll be...

    Round 7 discussion & trades

    I'm now thinking it isn't ridiculous to trade out Libba (104.67) this week if you think you will be by the end of the season, and think you have enough trades at this stage. He has made $187.8k, it's better than most of the rookies so far. With a score of 71 having 2 weeks to cycle out and...

    Round 7 discussion & trades

    I'm struggling to find a trade to make this week that makes sense (injuries/selection pending), have a couple of rookies not play last round but could get recalled/have a solid game, a few with a bad score to cycle out, but all could easily still gain $50k+ more before byes. There simply isn't...

    Round 5 Discussion and Trades

    "We expect Sam to progress quickly through the next 4-6 weeks of rehab and be back to his best." Not sure if the 'and' is inclusive of both events (rehab and match fitness) or simply being in a position to get back to his best following the 4-6 weeks of rehab rather than during/by the end of it.

    Round 5 Discussion and Trades

    Setterfield and Westhoff (Bines fwd) to O'Brien and Boak makes my team much stronger on field, stops Westhoff's bleeding and provides significant cash generation opportunity (I'm $600 short being able to get rid of Burgess instead of Setterfield :() Hard to ignore the earning potential of...

    Round 5 Discussion and Trades

    Anyone give Westhoff a chance to turn things around? Scored 149, 47, 39, 49, Dropped $113k and BE of 174 The things stopping me from trading him -Provides me cover for Mumford -He's dropped so much that a semi decent score may stop the bleeding beyond this week -There isn't any forward rookies...

    Round 4 Discussion and Trades

    Some opposing points for Mummy (he is obviously high risk and this is coming from someone who started him as I thought Gawn would drop significantly). If he can ave 90 until the byes, he makes $150k+ and possibly hits $500k+ making him pretty easily upgradeable. He doesn't really face any of the...

    Round 3 Discussion and Trades

    I'm thinking Mills to Lloyd and Hore to Constable (via Duursma) depending on teams as I'm carrying Ridley and Collins who wasn't exactly 100% guaranteed to play, leaving me risking a donut in round 2. (I started with $275k cash to help make 2 corrections prior to round 3) I'm happy enough with...
