Strategy 2024: Round 5 Trades

[Under The Dome]

 

[froffershanners]

Jordon and Billings to Comben and Lohmann are my way too early thoughts.

Happy to move them on for anyone really.

 

[Ben's Beasts]

OUT: Grundy, Howes
IN: English, Clohesy

 

[Connoisseur]

Jordon, Lyons and Coffield in the firing line. I wonder if I can hold onto that fourth boost? Comben/Lohmann the targets up forward and would prefer to make any def bench trades in RD6/RD7.

 

[Miller is a Steele]

Billings > Steele/Miller/Whitfield
Jordon > Lohmann

Comben around the mark. See how the GC rookies go.

Martin also in consideration but his scores were against the Saints (who leak the most points to defenders in the comp) and in a 70 point loss where the ball lived in the defensive half. His disposal has been very poor though and I know that will improve.

Jackson and Grundy slim chances to go.

 

[Bombers2win]

Jordon the obvious trade out, but for who? Comben seems the obvious early choice but Hollands gave us a stark reminder of going early, Lohman looks the goods but most players tend to hit their peak scoring ability against North just like defenders against the Saints, the GC rookies will be a interesting watch today but same scenario as Comben, TBH bar another defender rookie injury I might sit this one out, 21 playing next week unless Reid or Hore make a miraculous recovery.

 

[vsberlina]

Hoping for Jackson and Sexton to English and JHF, but likely will fall $5k short.
Had planned for Elijah Hollands, but that plan's gone out the window.

 

[Under The Dome]

Strong watch on Graham with his D/M.

One I may go early on and use him as a loop if dropped in future replacing Livingstone with Darcy at R7.

His D/M link with all these likely new D/M additions will be handy. GCS have a decent amount of Saturday night and Sunday games for it to work.

 

[dlanod]

Howes > a premium mid, depending on who catches the fancy from Miller, Green or Rozee.

Don't think there's any must have rookies this week.

 

[Zoku Pops]

Grundy to Young or Martin

 

[tso]

Best 18 for 2 rounds. Going to hold and see if any of the GCS cheap defenders are any good
if they survive 2 games to replace Z Reid.
Can then see who has maxed out and ready to go.

 

[Darkie]

Jordon (c. 350k) + cash (c. 225k)
=>
Premium

Plus Lazarro/Sexton to rookie if a decent one presents.

The near term cash gen outlook has improved substantially this week - it can be very volatile sometimes!

 

[Old Big 'Ead]

Grundy > English
Jordon > Graham if he scores well today.

Will look at other options for Grundy via DPP, but atm want to complete rucks

 

[Old Big 'Ead]

Best 18 for 2 rounds. Going to hold and see if any of the GCS cheap defenders are any good
if they survive 2 games to replace Z Reid.
Can then see who has maxed out and ready to go.

Reid will be back in 2-3 weeks

 

[GrainFedBeef]

OUT: Grundy, Howes
IN: English, Clohesy

Think the Grundy to English is tempting this week due to bye for Swans.

Although, English not smashing it vs Grundy and English BE looks to be projected to be 159 this week. Cost differential probably $170-180k, gives one extra premium this week. If it wasn't for the bye not sure I would do this, yet similarly tempted.

Positive is English 98 ruck contests to Darcy 22.

 

[OnTopBar]

Considering Clark > Sharp, still has some good cash to make with the 127 to cycle through.

Also Howes > Bowes a possibility

Still have 2 dead rookies on the defence bench and will continue to kick that can down the road for the next 2 rounds (maybe)

 

[Herbie66]

No idea

$ 5,700.00 in the Bank

See what the 3 newbies from last round score today.

Mitchell does offer up possibilities when Roberts gets his DPP , but don't really want another "dead" rookie.

Grundy sideways but then when will I be in a position to bring in another ruck ?

Check Marshall's projections , wait for Sean Darcy to return , D Cameron as the value option 🤔

Grundy - > Xerri for minimal cash return

See what a Heeney & Jackson package could buy.

Melbourne play Thursday night so get a chance to see if the Howes - > May is doable for Round 7 , and how much cash is required.

Campbell - > Round 6 bubble boy (if viable) won't bring in all the cash.

Clark , Sexton - > ? isn't giving me much bang for my buck either.

3-4 days to play around with different options.

 

[Herbie66]

Witts (BE 159) completely forgot about him on the possible ruck watch list if I do trade Grundy out.

I would like to do Grundy to English but can't justify paying $700k for English. It's definitely not the 2023 version of English with more job sharing. Should get the same output from a mid who could be $100k cheaper.
I can sit Jackson at R2 if I think I can get more value out of Grundy's money.
I do think English is needed but just doesn't make sense at the moment.
