Strategy 2024: Round 6 Trades
- Thread starter Under The Dome
- Start date
Preseason plan was to use Crouch as a stepping stone to Daicos Rd 6. I would have never thought he would have averaged 108 over the first 5 rounds which is making him a bit harder to move!
Interestingly his CBA’s this round dropped from 65 to 55 and a lot has been said in this forum about Adelaide needed speed at stoppage.
Think I’ll stick to the plan and go Crouch to Daicos for 30k. Will also use my boost to also downgrade Cadman and McKercher to Comben & Graham.
Gives me 280k to get Walsh next week.
Thoughts?

I think it depends on which rookies you have.
Apart from Carroll and McKercher, you could argue that all of Sanders/Cadman/Dempsey/Wilson/Sharp could use a week or two more to maximise their cash gen. I’m probably trading Cadman to get Comben this week but in an ideal world would wait a week or two longer.

Gives me $ 344,100.00 in the Bank
Feel like I have more onfield rookies now than my starting team and have used 13 trades 🤔
Onfield upgrades required :-
Clohesy (2 games) , D'Ambrosio , Williams
Roberts , Graham (2 games) , H Reid , Sharp
Comben (2 games)
+ Meek @ R2
Bench is :-
Brown - downgrade to ?
Reid , Z - dead
Sanders - upgrade Round 7
Wilson - needs a spike game
Clark - needs a miracle
Livingstone - dead
Camden - downgrade possibly Round 7
Campbell - downgrade possibly Round 7
Just work it out round by Round I guess

I don't think LDU to a proper top 5 mid like Serong or Steele is a sideways trade.
In essence, it's really no diff to many who thinks Grundy needs to be traded out to a Gawn or English.
If I could easily afford say LDU to Serong in 1 trade, I think it's a straight no brainer.
Yes lost too much cash etc etc but the number of trades we have this year + good rookies making money makes it easier than previous years.
I am quite confident that LDU will not be a top 10 mid this year.

I hopped off Young and Dawson rd 3, and when you couple who I bought for them both (Ryan and NWM) I’m up 88 points and 185k (Dawson + Young combined -105k and NWM and Ryan up +80k). This isn’t even taking into account the cash I received from the difference between the players (roughly 85k difference for the guys I currently have).
Of course, had I held Young I would’ve been much better off points wise, but I still stand by it as I would never have been able to buy Heeney this week if I were even 15-20k worse off.

Got him last week, probably against most good SCing principles in that he'll have to be traded out again but if he can maintain his role at least until Guthrie is back then I'm ok with it.
His subbed games were preseason when others needed to get looked at, tweaked a calf and was managed along with Atkins who also was coming back from an injury, there was a short 5 day turnaround where both had limited minutes and I think both were subs, looks ok now

seriously considering going early on walsh. he has a tough run of games tho
not many other mids present much value atm, i want stewart next round, steele the round after(before hawks north games- cant afford him this week) and petracca round after. if all goes well
thinking either bringing back hayden young or going walsh

Yeah interesting.. I'm toying with moving Daicos to the mid line for now and riding him for a few weeks. Could be a bust but role looks good, seems to have improved tackle and possession numbers.. if he can put out a month of good scoring it opens up some possibilities for later upgrades. Just a matter of whether Bowes or May is a better value play, or whether I skip the value move altogether..
