Strategy Round 11: Trades

[Goodie's Guns]

I'm tossing up between Pickett and Simpson to trade out , I don't really want to trade them this early but I need the cash.
At least we know Pickett is playing, Simpson may get dropped.

Obviously we won't know until later tomorrow, but geez it'd be stiff for the Cats to drop Simpson. SC aside, for someone prior to the year that I would've called a battler at AFL level, he's shown he can add something to the Cats, particularly the last two games, with his tackle and running ability to get to the feet of marking contests, etc. He's certainly not quick though lol. I think if anything he might get a 'rest' rather than dropped, but as a young bloke who appears to be pretty fit I'm not sure he needs it, or would want it after 2 years out of the AFL side until this year.

I'm hoping Close has done enough footy wise to hold his spot and eek out a couple more price rises.

Did anyone see Ridley’s injury? I was planning on bringing him in this round. Did the injury look bad?

 

[scarfaceclaw]

I have almost settled on;

Bennell and Budarick out
Simpkin and Schoenberg in.

It seems neat and I save my first trade of the year. I think I let Mitchell go for the week. I can't find the right combo to bring him in. Simpkin is a nice price.

 

[Zoku Pops]

Not much talk about Gawn. Sounds like the injury really impacted him and he will be touch and go again tomorrow night, and potentially every round moving forward!

720k, massive breakeven and a dodgy shoulder. Doesn't bode overly well.

 

[Zim^zuM]

Anyone ignoring draper with prob the last chance to get him? How sore is Gawn? Im either bringing in draper or woodcock in for d.cameron. decent price difference for next week

 

[Blaze]

I think I keep.gawn even if he misses and let draper back him up.

Thinking Budarick/Mahoney to Simpkin/Schoenberg writes itself

I might just pull a COVID-ball 2020 madness style trade out of Josh Kelly to another big dog just so I have a chance in the SCS PL against @IDIG 😉

 

[Herbie66]

Looks like Duncan has slipped to 13th in the mid averages , 110 including a 18.

 

[Herbie66]

Not much talk about Sier , I guess at this stage most people are almost full premium

 

[Herbie66]

Does anyone have BE for

Taylor Adams
Tim Taranto

@BarginHunter - I would seriously consider trading out any player you see as meaningfully overpriced. Take their price and divide by $5,000 - if you think they’ll average say 15 or 20 less than this, consider trading them to someone who can score similarly but who may be much cheaper.

Dumont to someone like Simpkin would be one to consider if you don’t have him.

Ahhh ok yeah good idea. For example i think WHE is overpriced but idk who to trade to?(but its gotta be someone cheaper right?)

Yes with the extra trades and 5 less rounds, full premo looks the go.

Hi there, this is a great community isn’t it. I joined in 2014 and since then my overall ranking has gone from the mid 30 thousands to my current 5,000 odd (we’ll overlook 2018’s 80,000 if that’s okay with everyone).

For the first few years I just read every thread going. Didn’t understand most of it

But slowly my supercoaching has improved, and it’s almost completely due to this site. Lately I’ve been commenting here and there, but mostly I just read all the top drawer info everyone provides.

I can recommend the weekly C/VC, trades, and in-game discussion threads of course, but also Questions for Rowsus (remarkable), Player X v Player Y, Rate My Team (pre-season), and the specific Rookie, Mids, Rucks, and Forwards threads. All rolled gold imo.

EDIT: and the Defs thread

Best of luck in your SuperCoach journey to the 50k!

Thank you, i mainly just used round... Trades and in game chat but yeah ill look into those other threads coz i wanna do as best as i can in this. And yeah i joined in rd 5? I think but sincr then my average score has gone from 1,700 to 1,900+ and my ranking has improved woth it. So i owe almost all of my info of the game from u guys. I also love how everyone is willing to help rookies like me and eachother. This is basically what football(and sport) is all about. Being goodsports people and enjoying the game from where ever they are.

My advice would be to trade in a $102.4k mid instead of Watson, but instead of banking the $53k keep Simpson or Rankine and trade out Bennell.

Then I would trade in the best premo you can next week with 3 trades, settle for a 21 premium side and slingshot 4 premiums over (or ahead of) their Rd14-15 byes keeping 2 trades for insurance over the final 1-2 rounds.

Great advice, rethinking my whole strategy now!

Might actually trade in Schoenberg into the mids and trade out Budarick instead of Bennell. Optimistic but if I am any chance of full premo need to eek out all the cash gen I can

Does anyone have BE for

Taylor Adams
Tim Taranto

113 and 107 for Taranto

 

[Herbie66]

113 and 107 for Taranto

Don't think I will have the $$$ for either but no harm in asking the question 😀

Tay Tay without BBQ for how many games becomes interesting.

 

[Brettthejett]

Thinking of doing

Out Bennell, Xerri, GAWN
In woodcock, Greenwood, nicnat

Thoughts?

 

[teatai]

Should i pull the trigger?
Gawn > Big O
Bennell > Shuey
Mahoney > Fyfe

Like the move but would prefer to use the Shuey cash to grab Williams in defence (this round or next) or a forward instead.

Trading a player who has an injury and played through it to two injury risk players, although Bennell also has the injury tag as he sees himself on the way out.

If you are doing, Fyfe is not for me. Beside the fact I am enjoying Serong's scores, with another player spending more time in the mids, Fyfe may not go back to the 100% mid player he was in the early rounds. Not just injury risk, role as well concerns for Fyfe.

Shuey I like, tends to be an injury player once a year, not more.

 

[Herbie66]

Pickett - > Wicks
McPherson - > Williams

should be comfortable enough
