Strategy Round 2: Trades

[Darkie]

Going to go balls out this season I think. Mcasey, BZT, Cavarra, JJK & Bont out for Rivers, Bennell, Viney, Townsend & Gawn.

Go Dees!

 

[Leroy]

Bont and Naismith out for Gawn and Bennel.

Gonna trade BZT and Fort, but what two players do I get for about $530k left over?

Simpkin and Rivers? Don't think Rivers lasts tbh.
$400k def and Sturt anyway? (banking on him playing again soon?)
Doedee and Bewley?

Hnnnn, any better ideas oh wise SCers?

 

[Darkie]

Can't really miss the opportunity on needing my 2 trades next week for Georgiades/Sturt so gonna have to go early on atleast 2 rookies this round I think.

Same for me I reckon - now have around 13 candidates for next week on a long list.

Who are you thinking?

Mchenry and Rivers at this stage as I want to see Bennell get through a game or two.

 

[IDIG]

So far i've done

Out: Naismith, Witherden
In: Cameron, Adams

Was tossing up between Howe and Adams and decided to go the POD route.

 

[Herbie66]

Thoughts on :-

BZT - > Rivers
Green - > Bennell
Naismith - > Jacobs
Roberton - > Stewart

 

[blue dreamer]

Howe Long is actually a chinese name too

I thought it was a town near Albury

 

[Grundogging]

Did just ok in that first hitout - was considering shifting TJL out an hour out from the game but stuck with him, so between keeping him and bringing Howe in that's a small win.

Cameron actually giving me something to think about with my FWD loop is also more than I was expecting. Brown and Pickett a little disappointing but I could only loop one of them so hopefully a lot of other coaches are wearing Pickett's score at F7/8.

 

[Bomber18]

Roberton to Howe done and dusted (and stoked).

If I trade out Naismith, I found a way to get both my desired targets of Gawn and Viney (but there is a trade off...).

I would end up with a scary three rookie fwd line of:

Brander, Taylor, Budarick (Sturt, Cavarra)

 

[Juzzo]

3/344, kept Lynch and backed him at $13 for 5 goals, kicked 3.2, oh well.
Missed Howe after trading him in and out of my team numerous times.
No trades yet, no Hawks or Geelong players coming in or out of my team either.
Will think about trades Saturday.

 

[Montyjnr]

Gawn & Rivers or Hurn & Long?

 

[Juzzo]

Gawn & Rivers or Hurn & Long?

That's tough, I have Gawn and maybe Hurn will enter my team this week. Gawn and Rivers just.

 

[Goodie's Guns]

Gawn & Rivers or Hurn & Long?

Gawn and Rivers.

 

[Bomber18]

Gawn & Rivers or Hurn & Long?

Gawn and Rivers easily for me

 

[Darkie]

Mchenry and Rivers at this stage as I want to see Bennell get through a game or two.

I’m looking at Bennell, Rivers plus Doedee and Pickett.

Sturt and Naismith next week, most likely.

Sturt and Naismith next week, most likely.

Yeh I'm pretty much covered with 2 trades. Got to work out if I want to go early on 2-3 rookies or pick 1 premo and 0-2 rookies.
Might pay for me to go Georgiades + Sturt anyway with scores on the board and pick the best of the midfield rookie crop in round 3.

 

[Bomber18]

I’m pretty set on:

Bont/ABrayshaw/McAsey/BZT/Green
to
Gawn/Viney/Townsend/Rivers/Sturt

Hoping no ugly surprises at selection.

There certainly were ugly surprises at selection with Fort and Roberton missing.

Revised trades looking like:

Bont/ABrayshaw/Roberton/Fort/Naismith
To
Gawn/Viney/Howe/Rivers/Sturt (yes I know he’s out!)

May change my mind tomorrow but like that I have Howe and also can fit in Gawn and Viney with these trades.

I passed on Howe in the end as Naismith was out and I wanted to keep him and bring someone in at R2 so I have to follow that through now.
I was also contemplating bringing in Sturt/Georgiades even tho they miss to have my pick of the midfield rookies next week.

 

[TigerTime]

Had to take a punt and lock in my first 4 trades before go time last night in order to get Grundy. So far:
Lynch > Petracca
Bont > Grundy
BZT > Bennell
Z Guthrie > Rivers
I have Fort, Frampton and Cavarra in my forward line so to avoid a donut will have to use my 5th trade on one of them to either Kozzie Pickett, Crocker or McHenry (with Budarick sent forward).
Anyone have an opinion on who is more likely to continue getting games out of Crocker and McHenry? McHenry named on a wing may be a positive sign or nothing at all.
