Trade 1: I'd do D Smith->Boak. Smith hasn't been playing, or scoring, well and his being "managed" make me wonder if there isn't something wrong. Boak is unlikely to keep scoring at his current rate but if he stays a permanent mid he should score well enough. He has averaged 106 as a mid before...

Is that actually confirmed? Last I heard he will decide on Thursday whether to have an operation.

Not me. Butters has had the one poor score but the other three have been OK.

atm my team is holding it's own but that's about all. Trading Darling->Marshall was a qualified success - Darling score 90SC - but looking good for the long-term. No obvious trades this week. Of my rookies only Parker is a possibility with a 46BE but there are no suitable fwd downgrade targets...

Noticed that Eddy McGuire will be seen but not heard on WA TV's coverage of the derby this week-end. Last year, McGuire was voted least popular footy commentator in a poll conducted by WA's channel 7. Despite this the 7 network still decided to send McGuire to cover the derby - for the first...

Not a trade I'd make for the reasons cited in my post above. In short: is one trade worth 60-70 points?

Opinion seems to be divided on this but if it were me I'd keep Fyfe. Yes, he will be missing at least this week but I see that as a bonus in that he will (probably) come back fully recovered. If he does so he will score much the same as Neale/Macrae. So you are using a trade for the points...

I wouldn't make that trade. We only have 30 and they are too precious to use up unnecessarily. On the outs: B Smith has a 44BE and will make more money. Goldstein has had the one poor score but is there a reason to think his overall scoring will drop off? On the ins: Mumford is almost 33 and...

Not for me. The money value in such a trade just doesn't add up. Burgess is scoring poorly but even if he keeps averaging only 44 is likely to be around $220,000 by his bye, making $70,000. Rozee had a very good week but how likely is it that he will do that again? The best rookies tend to peak...

I wouldn't do the Crisp trade. Sure he's had the one bad game but a week ago he had a very good one. If he doesn't end up top-8 he will be close. He was ranked #7 last year.

I'm happy enough with most of my team. I don't have Lloyd, Neale, Libba or Boak but it's not worth losing cash-making rookies while trying to get them in. My only problem child is Darling. I was going to hold him but if R Marshall is selected as sole ruck again I will probably bring him in for...

Yeah, far too early to tell. But as someone who kept Heeney today was pleasing.

I think Billings will average 90-95. He's playing wing-outside mid rather than inside-mid. He doesn't get many CPs or tackles. If I started him I would hold but I won't be bringing him in.

:(

With 8 days between Swans games I'm hoping it is enough time for Heeney's ankle to recover. And they are playing Carlton which might help. Although the ground surface at Docklands might stuff the ankle up right proper.

As Gawn's BE is 198 and English's is 56 surely you can wait a week or two? If Gawn scores his predicted 108 he will drop around $40K.

Thought it was time for a rnd.3 thread. I see some have already posted but in the rnd.2 thread, No trades for me unless all of Ridley, Hore and Balta are absent.

@Mike It definitely helps to have a perma "c" available. I thought my team was a bit thin in places but some of the lesser lights are surprising me: Rich is back in form; Aliir is fulfilling his promise; LD-U looked very good today. Some time later: Wow. A 1,492 score. Wasn't expecting that.

Never doubted. I've got him in every team possible. But I was hoping for an average score so that more would jump off him. He's still in 50% of SC teams but around 1,300 jumped off after rnd.1.

My "c" Grundy on 16 at qtr time!
