Round 3 Discussion and Trades

[Rupert]

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.

Mills and Heeney very much on the block this week.

Both have already been traded ... don't think they'll be reversed ...

 

[Brett fawell]

Happy with my rookie picks, thinking of k Simpson to b smith so I can pick up libber or cousins( that will leave 100k in bank)

 

[Orallus_Maximus]

Rucking Hell!

I went with Grundy / English in rucks (I know it was risky). Not surprisingly English has not smashed out any big scores - but then again most of the rucks have been a bit down. I can trade Ridley (DEF) to a rookie (with DPP magic) and then have enough cash to upgrade English to Gawn. Or should I just take a hit and wait another week or two to see what price Gawn ends up at? Or look at Mumford?

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.

Thanks for the reply.
That's a good thought. Already felt the pain - another couple of weeks isn't going to be the end of the world. Who knows - Supercoach gods might wreak carnage somewhere...

I'm sitting at 3k overall around 270 off the overall leader. Havn't used a trade yet. Thinking of getting Charlie Constable for Ben Mckay from North. Just think the cash generation I'll miss could be too good to resist. Mckay is a key back and with scores of 59 and 36 I'm liking Constables scores 69 and 87. I'm able to move Moore from forward to back with Burgess and get Setterfield onto my forward line.

Looking to hold after this for a couple more weeks pending injuries, was tempted to move Heeney but will hold think he will bounce back once Swans play abit better.

Im in the same boat, Mills is 100% gone but Heeney im now feeling 50/50 about

 

[Rupert]

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.

He's expected to continue to be sore.

[The Antrobus]

I have no idea what to do with Mills.
No downgrade options. Every other position I have happy with.

 

[m4ttdog]

Mills to Brodie Smith and Heeney to Tim Kelly for me. Not 100% happy with this and worry at least one of these trades are sideways but Kelly seems too good to pass up on this form and Mills seems to be under-performing compared to expectations.

 

[Crackhead]

What are everyones thoughts on Goldy? I currently have him traded out. Looked cooked in the last game.
North are in a bit of strife i reckon

 

[Geoff123]

Thoughts on Dunkley ?

I'm never side swapping premiums. So Heeney stays.

I'm putting Mills in the not premium basket so I can trade him! Ha.

 

[nawtay]

I was of that stance but after enduring 11 rounds of Billings last year I'm not so sure anymore!

 

[Orallus_Maximus]

So right at the moment my trades for the week are pretty much dependent on selection of both Ridley & Balta. If one of them is not selected then I'll trade them out for Parker - looks like he's about the only good rookie I've missed.

Kicking myself a bit. I had Parker in my starting team and then 10 mins before Tigers first game I traded him out for Balta.

I did Mills to Rocky last week and will likely trade Heeney to Lloyd this week. Mills isn't playing the role I thought he would be and Heeney's foot injury is a concern. At this stage I haven't got any rookies that need correcting so I'm happy to use the trades on premium corrections.
