Strategy 2022: Round 5 Trades

[Ben's Beasts]

Why has 27yo Sinclair jumped up in scoring, averaging 116, when his past 7 seasons highest avg was 86?

Playing majority midfield this season.

@Shannon

Do you know if Clark played in the pre-season game against Subiaco last Sunday ?

I read that Yeo played.

Worth noting, zero CBAs on the weekend.

It’s more so the fact he’s a much improved player across the last 18 months for mine. A great user, and they found a spot for him to provide some dash and dare out of half back. They look to get the ball to him wherever possible. And will setup off the back of stoppage as the outlet. Ward at times on the weekend was tasked with trying to somewhat negate his influence across half back, which had next to no impact whatsoever.

Was my next in line DEF option prior to round one, and really wish I backed myself in and took him instead of Whitfield. Thankfully I targeted him late last year and got him in one of my keeper leagues.

Thinking of going Rowell to Tom Mitchell and swinging Mitchell forward when/if he gets dpp.

Don't think Mitchell will qualify for DPP (was only 29% fwd before last round)

 

[BC]

Donto know how accurate this account is.

71% defensive half in round 4

 

[Goodie's Guns]

71% defensive half in round 4

That percentage is in relation to the location of his disposals on the field.

Where’s Champion Data position allocation is based of time spent in roles/positions when stoppages (incl. CBAs) occur.

Any news on the Hinge injury at all from any Adelaide twitter accounts?

If Hinge and Cripps both play, potentially zero trades this week

 

[The Experiment]

**Owner of Dixon**
Didn't see the WC coast game, but Dixon would seem to be playing well and his JS just went up. No brainer

Of the two Freo boys, NOD just looked so good in a very SC friendly role. His 17 in round 2 was when he was on as a late medi-sub and with that score falling out of his average he goes up plenty for the next two weeks. I would think 60-80 is the range he will normally score in as not every team uses the ball as poorly inside 50 as the Giants, however he will ton up again this season as his work rate and ball use are first class. The DPP is also a big bonus, and I will be trading him in, it's the out that's difficult.

I barely noticed Erasmus, and I suspect he's first out if Freo get some players back. Unless you are desperate for a downgrade i'm not sure he's worth a trade right now.

I think this is the right call on the freo rookies. Erasmus in all likelihood will be the first out for Serong given they play similar positions and while he has been okay, hasn’t set the world on fire. Given there is far less competition for the role NOD plays I reckon he has firmed up his spot in the team for a few weeks now.

Outside of fyfe, freo have an almost full squad to pick from. So selections this week will be telling.

Clark still 1/2 weeks away so no didn't play.

Yeo played on limited minutes & looked good, bit rusty as expected but think he is real chance to be picked for Fri pm v Sydney.

You already have O'Driscoll?

Thanks for that , couple of misleading reports then that Clark could be available for the Swans game along with the 3 returning mids.

Probably would need a run in the WAFL in any case.

Stephens to NOD looking likely.

Still tossing up whether to trade Cripps out.

Pearce would come back for Logue , who would Tucker replace ?

 

[Herbie66]

Just looking on Footywire for O'Driscoll they are projecting for the next 3 games :-

+ 49,700
+ 40,200
+ 8,700

Back up his 104 and that could sky rocket

 

[Herbie66]

Early doors , Top 10 price increases from Footywire

Brodie 130,700
Coniglio 127,600
Daicos 110,900
Xerri 107,000
Bowey 104,600
Naish 100,500
Horne-Francis 99,300
Green 94,500
Martin 93,100
Hewett 90,900

With a lot of DPP changes Ward > D Rioli (McCartin onto the bench) Rachele into my mids to cover for Cripps if he is out this week and puts deKoning on fwd bench. Is Rioli a potential keeper at D5 or D6 $419 d/f - 71, 111, 107, 101. Any thoughts thanks.

Be wary of Vlastuin’s return would be my advice. I’d want a look or two at him with Vlastuin back before putting him in the keeper category.

 

[Herbie66]

Looking at price projections on Footywire

End of Round 6

Miller 596,700
Petracca 567,000

End of Round 7 (Trade Boost time)

Steele 616,900
Bont 586,400
Oliver 556,300

Currently Neale , Macrae , Cripps 🚑

Now to work out how/when to upgrade 5 of the following 6:-

Brodie (or F) , Rowell , Daicos (or D) , JHF (or F), Berry / Rachele

Notebook could get a hammering over the next few days

Ran out of ink , batteries are flat and only a few pages left in the notebook but this is the Grand plan

Round 5 - Stephens - > NOD

Round 6 - Curnow/Xerri - > Preuss

Round 7 - Miller & Petracca

Round 8 (boost) - Bontempelli , Oliver , Steele
