Strategy Round 3: Trades

[Herbie66]

I dont think CJ/Atkins types have to be keepers, if they can score 80-100 for a couple months its alot better than a rookie on field throwing up the odd 30, I have a structure based around those types and scored 2366 in Round 2.

Good structure

Still think maybe starting 6-10 of these $ 200-300k players is/was the right way to go (obviously need the right ones).

Limit onfield rookies to 5-6

Not 100% convinced its sustainable to be honest but it's what I did, have CJ,Atkins,Impey,Ziebell,Young and Clark and will be bringing in Tex after trades.

It seems like hourly I change my mind.
Thinking of going Neale to Dunkley and Scott to Impey at the moment.

If you're trading Neale Scott has to go with the money freed up for mine, good trades.

Be interested to see how it goes

Clark , Cummins , Fantasia , Young x 2

Daniher , Dow , Impey , Ziebell

etc etc were all talked about in lengths preseason

2 at D4-5 , 2 at F4-5 minimum could be the right way

very nice selection in Atkins , looked at Jiath myself but ended up going just Fantasia

If they all get to that add 85-90 mark and make $ 150k then they have worked

 

[Presto]

If Tex Walker scores 70 for the next 5 weeks he will reach a peak price of $370k after R7. Feels like a trap.

That is not correct, if Tex score 70 he will reach $375k this week and $400k next week

I dont get why people are so against a quick 100K? How often do we trade a rookie in during the season and never make 100K off them?

Kinda sucks that a reasonable POD in Ridley is being shut down so early, wish he had waited until round 3 to go nuts.

Oh well, dems the breaks *shrugs*

Only up 3.6% still under 15% still a good poddish selection. I'm more disappointed in Mills doubling to 6.8% per cent. Really liked his ownership at 3%!

absolutely right, as I said in Rowsus' thread I will trade Neale to Brayshaw and use the cash for Henry to Tex.

Reverse trades button is getting a work out this week.

Cripps to Cerra.....reverse trades.....Cripps to Heeney.....reverse trades.....Hold Cripps

 

[XabiFernando]

Thank you @Herbie66 @Shaunpro1 @Athomas - plenty of food for thought!

 

[AngryAnt]

Still not entirely decided on Cripps to Ridley or Brayshaw (keeping Highmore at D6). Ridley looks guaranteed top 4 defender right now but Brayshaw as well looking like an upper echelon midfielder.

 

[Monya Meow Meow]

With Sharp being dropped, not sure if I still want to proceed trading Jones out for Jordon.
Feels like I need to keep whoever gets named.

Any chance that Jones gets dropped this week those in the know?

 

[Courtesans]

Latest decision, Cripps to Brayshaw hold Neale. Jordon in. As noted above, Brayshaw looks upper echelon, very unlikely Cripps will be.

I was thinking this also, looked at the Bombers board and no-one has him being dropped, tbf they also do have a lot of injury issues to cover first.

I'd like to bring in Ridley or Bowes or possibly both; however I don't want to push Highmore to the bench as he's one of the better scoring rookies so far.

I know if I bring in Jordon I'll break him.

Here is his heat map :-

How do I find a players heat map please?

 

[randomcliche]

Bumping this, hoping for some community wisdom

Problem is I think a lack of certainty on Bowes within the community. He is very high on my list, but I'm probably not/not going to take him. It's so close. (Vs Titch/Freoshaw for me). Ridley is certain a top6 as the come. If you've got space for Bowes and Ridley and you want both then consider Bowes. Also consider taking Brockman, Bergman, Giro or other rookie you missed/like with Bowes if you need some further correction $ week 3. There appears enough onfield rookies to minimise the benefit of the extra scoring Imp brings. That said, the Imp is a good pick.

Cheers

 

[Wingemi77]

Damn it with all these stop and reverse trading I'm going for it and trading out Neale for Cerra and a Fwd rookie (who shall not be named) to Tex. It it doesn't come off then I will have to live with it.

 

[Cyrils_left_nut]

Is Warner a must have rookie? I have Cripps and Heppell to deal with.. 1 potentially not playing (2 missed games) and one playing injured so output reduced..

1 trade is to Jordan, just don’t know whether to go up to premo or grab Warner for $$ generation.. 30 trades still left

Yes I believe Warner is a must have. Watched both his games and pre season, this guy can play. Definitely passed the eye test and SC test for me. Can't see him getting dropped anytime soon, arguably one of the first players picked to be fair. So yes, get Warner in. Looking like a top 3 rookie at this stage

How do I find a players heat map please?

Works for me only on iPad/Phone, is a telstra account thing I think with Live Pass.

Go to match centre, player stats, and select the player you want the heat map for that game.
