Strategy Round 3: Trades
- Thread starter Bomber18
- Start date
need to get serious
Sloane - > Cameron via DPP
Jacobs - > Gawn
if I mess around too much with Jacobs , Pittonet & Naismith to get to Gawn , half the season will be gone.
Then relying on my rookies to moo
Starcevich , Rivers / Brander , Noble
Pickett , Bennell / McInerney , Brown , Mahony
/ Williams
Taylor , Cameron , KPP / Budarick , Cavarra
4 DNP from last round and a few on the chopping block , just hope team selections are kind

I'm still torn about keeping Noble vs Doedee
I watched the Tigers v Pies and didn't think Noble looked that bad. Maybe he just struggled because the game was so high intensity. Probably won't get he same pressure from other teams so he might get more clean ball.
I didn't see the Adelaide v Port game, but the ball would have been at the right end for Doedee to get opportunity. Maybe Adelaide aren't a good enough team to apply enough pressure in the midfield to allow Doedee to intercept.
Unfortunately I can't ditch both and still bring in Cameron and Pittonet because I think I'd rather keep Bewley who is the one I'm going to have to chop

Agreed, the extra $100K you spend on Pitt is not worth it if it’s sitting at R3. And while he performed well this past round, there is no guarantee he will continue to do so. I’d say most people were quite surprised he did as well as he did.
Cameron, while he has shakier JS, has to do far less to generate cash. The DPP and his use possible use as a viable F6 for the time being makes him the more logical choice, especially if you are running Grawndy/Goldy.

It’s not that much cash on bench in my view. Only 236k. Plenty are running Townsend, Long, Bewley and Doedee types on field. Replace one with a Starcevich, Rivers or Budarick type and grab potentially one of the best cash generators of the year in Pittonet.
130 odd against Gawn is huge, suggesting he could easily hit 100-110 avg against lesser rucks. Two more 100s will see him make 130k+ in just two weeks! Marshall/ROB both showed how good that No.1 ruck role is.
I wouldn’t overthink it personally.

Darcy Cameron is on a lot of peoples radar as a trade in, but whats his long term JS like? is he straight out once Cox is back?
I currently have a few options I'm mulling over.
1 - Greene/houston out for Cameron(via DPP)/ and Howe/??
2 - Greene for Bennel or Cameron
3 - Jacobs/McRae out for Cameron/Gawn.
Normally wouldnt consider Option 3, but as its very ealry days, and I'm ranked well overall (127th), should i go this to both avoid the cash drop and get Gawn in as it may not be until round 10 i could get him otherwise?
