Strategy Round 5: Trades

[Peter56]

Big changes to sport in Queensland
We've just got a statement from the Queensland Chief Health Officer Jeannette Young, who's announced new measures for Queensland or Queensland-based sporting teams.

Dr Young says any Queensland or Queensland-based team who:

• Plays against a Melbourne team in Queensland is required to quarantine after the match for 14 days; or
• Plays in Melbourne is required to quarantine for 14 days on returning to Queensland, or
• Plays in another state against a team who has been in Melbourne in the preceding 14 days is required to quarantine on their return to Queensland

Is this classic click bait?? Or could we be in for another best 18? At least something to think about for tradesthis week

At least it's early in the week so they can decide what to do and inform us ahead!

I'm thinking

Out: Howe/Stewart
In: Ridley/Haynes

I do want to wait and see the extent of Fyfe's injury, sounding like 2-3 but obviously can't move all 3 on this week.

How long will a collarbone injury set you back for?

 

[Erek22]

Is Maynard likely to be impacted (positive or negative) by Howe missing?

i think he could be negatively impacted (need a better to player than me to answer that one) and not brave enough to go for Kolodjashnij

That'll seriously delay the season, unless Brisbane and Gold Coast stay out of QLD until the ruling changes. They can only play non-Vic sides for a few rounds.

The NT option doesn't look so bad now - neutral venue for everyone. Maybe Tassie too if they allow it.

Yep that is what I was thinking.
Collingwood had a solid back six working well together and losing Howe will be a big loss which in turn may make things difficult for Maynard.
I am staying away

 

[Crabby Skills]

Great insight.

Does/will McKenna affect his role/scoring when he returns ?

Was concerned about the same thing slightly, then didn't have to worry about it!

Doubt it will impact much though. A side-effect of all the club talk about Mckenna wanting to play more forward, and them supporting that via playing him there in pre-season, indicates they are happy the current plan of Ridley being the main ball user from the back. And the longer he performs quite well in that role, I reckon the more likely the coaches will feel vindicated for their choice.

Might need to reset for 14 days and relocate every team.

 

[Cyrils_left_nut]

Howe to Ridley + cash or seagull Loyd? I have Hurn, Doc, Sicily.

Fyfe to Mitchell/Bont/Gaff?

Thoughts..

 

[TigerTime]

Fyfe and Naismith to Simpkin and Ridley. No Simpkin is killing me.
Every week seem to change my mind just before lockout and subsequently regret the decisions. Has cost me Pittonet (twice) and Simpkin thus far

Might take a punt on him as my Stewart replacement

 

[The Underdogs]

Interested to hear peoples thoughts on potential trade options.

Fyfe out for Tom Mitchell and Doedee out for Ridley..... or Fyfe out for Tom Mitchell and McGrath out for Dangerfield. I like McGrath but Danger won’t get any cheaper. Also Ridley has been great but have I missed the boat?

Does it mention if they are allowed to keep playing during their quarantine period similar to what will happen with the WA hub ?

 

[Herbie66]

Ridley surely not worth it at his current price!?

Great if you brought him in after R2 though..

Why ?

Could be a season long keeper for $ 410 k , currently 6th on the averages.

Form drops off he could be a relatively easy sideways to say Hurn or someone

Tassie might shape up to be a better option. Punter owns half of it doesn't he?

 

[Herbie66]

Didn't he sell his half to buy up in Melbourne ?

Although if his wine takes off he might be able to buy it all back.

6-8 teams in Hobart & Launceston must be viable.

 

[Presto]

Hove to Saad
Whitfield to Wingard

I'm not sure what Doedee's BE is, but I'd be holding him for now.

Was always going to be up and down. Is certainly capable of a ton though so still has money to make.

FWIW I wouldn't be moving McGrath on either.

 

[bloke]

Hove to Saad
Whitfield to Wingard

Too late to move on Whitfield in my opinion.

If you did it last week then so be it, but you've just lost another $50k on him
