Strategy Round 9: Trades

[whiteTiga2k]

Id be more convinced with Titch if JOM had played the last fortnight, feel like he gains 20 points a game just from that, think hes good value still but starting to question the selection a bit.

Very good point - JOM has been very good this year. It's amazing that he would miss two weeks from soreness. Stupid.

Mitchell's form aside from the 70 game, hasn't been that bad though.

Anyone with good knowledge of the saints able to elaborate on Ryan Brynes?

I watch a bit of the saints game and he seemed busy without anything jumping out at me to think he has great JS. I am inclined to pass and take Poulter in preference

I don't have good knowledge of the Saints, however watched some of Byrnes' highlights. His kicks are mostly short and floaty in nature, and my gutfeel is that the technique may not stand up under the pressure of the next two opponents (Geelong and Dogs).

 

[Peter56]

Still holding Highmore. How much long should he be held? Just know the week I trade him he will be back.

 

[OnePercenters]

Importantly, are they going back to teams named on Thursday from now? Please let this be a thing

I believe that has been confirmed to be the case mate!

Please let this be true, only saw speculation last week.

The question is, will we also get "final" Sunday teams at 5-6pm Friday?

I have both Houston and Ryan, want Poulter and Hall and thus need more than 2 trades this week.

Million dollar question. I won't be removing myself, just praying each and every week that he'll be back while simultaneously jabbing needles into my Brett Ratten voodoo doll.

 

[Herbie66]

Those 2 trades suggested to you look solid, gets the cash gen rolling again. Upgrade next week.

Cash grab this week and then keep my fingers away from the Trade button for a few rounds.

Need to get every $$$ from my playing rookies.

Hoping Western debuts this round and provides a decent downgrade option for Round 11.

 

[straightuptheguts]

Someone needs to sell the complete range of AFL Coaches voodoo dolls 🤣🤣

 

[freowho]

I'll have the money for a proper upgrade but it doesn't look like there is a decent rookie next week so I'll probably double down this week. RCD and Poulter.

This is where I'm at too.

 

[Impromptu]

Okay that's it getting Parker instead of Jelly with Poulter.

Knowing me, Parker will run back for a courageous mark and get concussed on 5SC.

 

[GrainFedBeef]

This is where I'm at too.

Who is everyone moving on?

Noticed Warner up the list for some, does have a good run coming up.

Tex..

Mansell the other if dropped, otherwise likely to be Warner.

Yup.

 

[Crowls]

going round in circles, plan awry
plan is now kosi/brockman>poulter/rcd keep clark/berry (relook after teams announced) leaves d6-8 as clark, murphy, highmore so could be donut. If Kosi named may trade berry instead. If Clark or Highmore named Kosi is gone.

really want mitch or jelly but will go the rooky double downgrade.

Hold bolts until we know how bad it is. Next week bolts to Martin. No impact on byes,
Bring in Mitchell or Jelly probably for Flynn (finally) Want Steele but not trading in another R14 prem at this stage. May look at Marshall as well as will give me the R/F loop with Treacy. Think Marshall has another drop in him yet though. Flynn to Jelly works well with byes.

Write the trade in of bolts over zorko in Rnd 8 off to SC gods ........
Got one good score over a rookie and made 19k. Not a total waste.

I have Houston. I hope he gets dropped so it's an easier decision but it sounds like something that he will continue to battle with for some time. Unfortunately the other one is probably Powell. I'm hopefully thinking, maybe stupidly, that my other cash cows still have more money to make.

Gulden and Mansell?

Hold til round 22. 😁

Houston for me is basically a definite out if he doesn't get up this week, like you said, he'll be dealing with this all of the season and he'll be targeted by the opposition because of it. He's already had two games of truncated scoring because of this dicky shoulder. I also have Ryan so it will avoid a donut but it also means I'll have to shelve my other trade plan which is to get Hall into my desultory forward line.

So basically as it stands, with Houston also out this week along with Ryan, going Houston to Mills, Warner to Poulter.

Haven't got many options with the other guys spiking. Probably Gulden and Warner have to go.

Edit: Actually, Berry could go first and hold Warner for a week against the Pies.

Anyway, it's two of the three, unless Kozi doesn't play.
