If you buy Fyfe this week you might get to a straight swap to Yep next week

 

[XabiFernando]

Oliver to Merrett, Cincotta to Fyfe I think

 

[All is Wells]

Keeping Oliver at this stage. Can understand the logic if he gets you 2 premiums with cash freed up but for my side he is effectively only missing 2 weeks since i should have 18-19 premos rd 13 and then he has his bye which every player you bring in for him will eventually have. See alot of teams saying theyll go Day/Sheezel to him but where are they finding 180k to do this with lack of cash gen and bigger priorities to get off field. Unless youve nailed every rookie and have ridiculous team value it seems far fetched.

My trades will be S.Simpson -> Laird with most of the $360k i have in the bank and likely S.Ryan -> Wardlaw. Not fully sold on Wardlaw yet but lack of other rookie options and i can see Ryan being rested or subbed out and losing much needed cash

Not keen on going early on rookies (Ford, Wardlaw), not keen on any current bubble rookies, not keen on trading out Oliver as I can't see a path to get him back later, might just sit on my hands this round and save some trades.

 

[Miss_Brightside]

History of coming home strong. Easy fixture. Injuries to Bombers mids.

Relatively cheap for his potential output, has a great run of fixtures, and for many who are trading Oliver, the same bye helps.

- Parish and Setterfield out
- Xavier O'Neill (WCE notorious midfield tagger) omitted
- $582k, 72 BE
- 3 round avg of 112
- Second-half of last season avg 117 (6 out of 11 games he scored 130+) versus first-half avg of 106

Thank you so much, everyone. I truly appreciate your advice. I was perplexed about the interest in Zach due to him scoring inconsistently, and only being ranked the 25th-ranked overall midfielder. I think I can now see some of his potential.

 

[Wheedus]

Thinking about going:

Oliver -> Humphrey
Cincotta -> Weddle

and taking $375k into the byes rounds. Will have to play one of Weddle, Mitchell or Humphrey this round

It's not that farfetched to find 180K for Day/Sheezel to Oliver.

Everyone has Seamus Mitchell that will be ripe to be culled before his bye.

There are also plenty of teams that have 2 of the Atkins (43% owned in top 1%), Humphrey (45% owned in top 1%) & Weddle (56% owned in top 1%) trio.

People also have Ashcroft or Worpel that can be cashed in soon, Simpson has made it to 250K etc.

I have all three. Just wish I didn't trade Ashcroft.

 

[Uncle Drew]

who's better to go early on, Wardlaw or Ford?

Wardlaw

 

[frosty1]

who's better to go early on, Wardlaw or Ford?

You'd think Wardlaw being a top 5 draft pick who was straight in as soon as he was healthy, and is selected on ball would be safer than the guy who has been been no better than fringe for 3 years

But, Wardlaw also has injury history, and is 60k more expensive (although if going early, being the more expensive option might be better as it will allow an easier correction if you go the wrong way)

Thanks for your input. Was leaning towards Wardlaw, but definitely feeling more comfortable with that decision now. Well... as comfortable as you can be going early on a rookie in a season like this.

Any chance of a poll regarding trades left before this rounds trades, please and thank you leadership group!

 

[Miller is a Steele]

After Fleeton‘s axing I’ve settled on no trades.

Plan for next week is:
Cincotta>Ford
Simpson>Wardlaw
Ryan>Gawn/DCam

Ideally Gawn but he needs to get DPP first which will be close.

If Simpson is the sub, I’ll trade to Wardlaw this week.

Is it worth trading Cincotta to Weddle?

 

[wolfbunny]

Is it worth trading Cincotta to Weddle?

I would if nothing else is pressing and you have the trades, onfield rookie vs non playing coming into the byes. If you can afford to do it helps, you only lose Cincotta DPP status.
FWIW Cincotta is playing (Edited so @frosty and others don't get medical problems! lol) VFL now

Simpson out Humphries in
Looking more likely Oliver to Merrett as the second trade.
I can cover him this week and next with Callaghan/Johnson!
But 4 weeks may be too long, it's the great unknown isn't it! 1,2,3 or 4 weeks?

Nah, changed the goalposts and decided Oliver to Sicily is the play.
Along with Simpson to Humphrey.
Was able to fix up my DPP's as well which had been bugging me!
Now to sit back and watch the points roll innnnnnnn
