Strategy 2022: Round 5 Trades

[OnTopBar]

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.

If anything Vlastuin would enhance Rioli's scoring, Rioli is, along with Short, the player that the Tigers look for to set up exits from the D50 as well as transitioning and setting up attacks from Def (Dimma loves this) Vlastuin is more the intercepter/lock down defender who'll look to give off to Short and Rioli.

You already have O'Driscoll?

No but if Hinge is named I don’t see who I would downgrade to him for. Can see the argument for cash gen for upgrade season but I’m not sure NOD is a must have

 

[The Experiment]

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

It's a good question.

I personally wouldnt play Tucker as I don't think he is best 22, especially with a full squad to pick from. but in all likelihood they pick him and I would suggest someone like Walker would unfortunately make way. Walters and Colyer the other two I would consider droppable.

Any thoughts of Cripps ($525,000 BE152) to Walsh?
Do you rate Walsh as a top 8 Mid season end?

WALSH:

 

[AryaBosses]

hi guys, whos better in terms of sc, erasmus or durdin?
and im planning to make the one trade this week in skinner to o'driscoll. Reasoning, most have gibcus and i don't have gibcus so NOD gives me the chance to compete with gibcus owners at that d7-d8 spot

WALSH:
View attachment 42665

Walsh hasn't looked quite right yet. He is getting the ball ok, but everything has seemed hurried and his running is not back to 100%.

He likely will be a top 8 mid from a certain point onwards, but we can probably wait another couple of rounds before his value starts heading north.

Thanks for that! Walsh has missed some training, so lacking fitness.

Out of the two it would be Durdin, only as a bench player though…
dropped a really poor score in round 2….

Hmmm, Fwd Durdin has a much better job security and Mid Erasmus has the potential to make more cash.
I like the Skinner to O'Driscoll trade.

 

[ScottishBomber]

Dixon a must have now with NicNat out?

 

[AB09]

Which one of Yeo or Menegola would you take in SC Draft ?

 

[AryaBosses]

Probably Yeo

 

[AB09]

Probably Yeo

Do you think Menegola will play this week ?
Do you see him playing wing ?

As a Geelong fan myself, he did have a concussion while playing in the VFL but I've heard from some sources that he's pushing to play against the Hawks

Ik it doesn't help at all when it's a 50/50 call but selection wise I doubt they'll bring him in

As for the role, yes he will play wing and they'll push duncan to a half forward role

Carlton confirm Cripps likely to miss at least 1 week
source: ( Chanel 10 news report 5:50pm Melbourne time)

 

[Courtesans]

Cripps, Hinge to Macrae, O’Driscoll. I guess the good news is they have made $155k between them, both in my starting side, which isn’t ideal but could be worse. I wouldn’t think Macrae will go too far south in price, have to get him sooner or later.

That's aggressive trading - both Hinge and Cripps both likely to miss only a week.

Makes things very interesting.

Cripps will divide the SC nation this week.

Assuming he does miss this week as reported I reckon he'll miss the next game vs Freo over there as well. There's a fair bit of risk putting him on a plane for 4 hours each way with a dodgy hammy, which I'd suspect they'd want to avoid if they really think they're chance of playing finals / making some noise this season.

Makes more sense to play it conservative and bring him back for round 7 vs the Roos from where I'm sitting.

Look, I think we have a look for one week at how Cripps is progressing, so for now hes a hold
