I deciding on the same thing. I think I'm leaning on trading out Setters. He hasn't scored well at all yet, not any better than Parker and having a look at his potential price rises I think the lads on the show oversold his price generation with his 30-odd out of the system. Even if he gets a 70 point game on return it wont make too much of a difference.
I feel they are both about the same, Parker might make 30k ish more where as Setterfield is one bigger score away from pushing the BE back down. But has a tougher run once back from suspension. I don’t think there is a wrong answer. It all comes down to what that extra cash gets you
I'm against popular belief and think Setterfield. He's out for two weeks and has a 37 in his cycle which means he's about 5 to 6 weeks room riding significantly. Plus he hadn't had a big game yet. Whereas Parker has had 2 over 80 and 2 low scores so has a 50/50 chance of getting a good increase in the next 3 to 5 wks. Depends how long you want to wait on upgrades. Given there may me rookies on the bubble in that time I'm leaning towards keeping Parker and trading Petruccelle and Setterfield.. though unsure myself. Need to trade two good Mummy and O'Brien.
Trade 1: I'd do D Smith->Boak.
