Strategy 2022: Round 6 Trades

[Shannon]

At 31 trades left is it wise to boost?
If i did boost it would be a 1 down 1 Sideways (but sort of a down as well, e.g Stephens >Preuss), 1 up

Depends what your 3 trades are & how much will that improve your team.

What do you have in mind & what is your current team?

 

[Grundogging]

My thoughts;

Trade out Hinge
Trade out Rowell
Rosas is worth it, also look to trade in both Hayes and Hobbs on the bubble if both score well again this round

Trade out neither Hinge or McCartin if playing.
Trade Rowell for an upgrade only
Rosas appears to be worth it particularly to get Rowell up to a keeper. 2c

Well the trades I'm tossing around at the moment are:

JHF -> Preuss (Dunkley and Hayes)
Rowell to Pretacca
Hinge to Rosas (via Daicos and Brodie)

That would leave be with @$397k ITB and the following team:



From there it's a really easy path to Clarry through Berry + cash ITB next week and scope to double down on rookies if needs be.

I can't help but think that I might be slipping behind the 8-ball a little with this lineup though, given a lot of teams are looking to add 3-4 premos over the next couple of rounds to my two and I'd also be fading players like McDonald who could benefit from Hall's absence just as an example.

I could also bring in another premo down back (eg. Sicily), up forward (eg. Heeney with a little tinkering) or even someone like Bazlenka, Gresham or even Luke McDonald as potential keepers, which just muddies up the waters a little more.

Another crazy 11pm trade idea

JHF > Rosas
Rowell > Hewett
McCartin > Sicily

Not much left in bank and will have to dbl down next week (Hayes and Hobbs) 🤔

Do you already have Preuss?

 

[blue dreamer]

Big Russ, any other Port fans or anyone else really.

Having seen Burton against the Blues last weekend is he an upgrade option this year?

Any thoughts, anyone

 

[nath_99]

Nah mate, Gawn/Grundy and a floating donut at R3

Thank you, very much appreciate the link.

Mitchell looks to risky reading that. Was going Ward to Preuss, but will now go JHF to Preuss instead which brings everyone into the picture, probably Oliver.

 

[Blue Bloods]

At this stage:

Rowell, JHF and prob Stephens to

Premium (Trac, Steele, Parish)
Rosas

Can someone explain Preuss’ appeal apart from $$? does he have really good JS? (I don’t watch many GWS games) I’m not keen on having that many points on the bench each week, could be good cash gen though..

I have Gawn/Grundy so not going to trade any of them.

Cheers

Preuss at R3 will probably make more cash than every other rookie price player, Preuss at R2 will probably score more than any rookie priced player. Just needs to remain injury free.

 

[Blue Bloods]

Got 30 trades left, so really haven’t used a trade yet this year😎.

Hinge < Preuss
JHF < Rosas
Rowen < Oliver

Oliver’s BE is 174 this week, maybe wait a week or 2.

Also you're working tomorrow but you don't work Fridays, so really, for you tomorrow is Friday

 

[Tex]

Daicos is averaging more than Blakey.

Daicos still has bucket loads of cash to make.

Daicos has DPP which is a further advantage when doing trades.

Can't see the point in that trade personally.

Would be trying to get Blakey up to a premium at the appropriate time.

Can't you get Blakey to a Miller , Oliver , Parish, Steele , Walsh type via Daicos by including a downgrade ?

No way would I trade Daicos atm.

 

[BarginHunter]

Depends what your 3 trades are & how much will that improve your team.

What do you have in mind & what is your current team?

Current team is...

Def- Short, Hewett, Ridley, Rioli, McCartin, SDK... Gibcus, Sinn

Mid- Macrae, Neale, Miller, Cripps, Rowell, Daicos, JHF... Ward, Stephens, McDonald

Ruck- Grundy, English...Dixon

Fwd- Dunks, Butters, Cogs, Brodie, Xerri, Martin... Rachele, Hayes

Trades would most likely be, Rowell, Stephens (for Preuss) and probably another failed rookie with a bit of cash on them or Rachele or someone (for Rosas)
Its just a matter of choosing the right prem i guess
With a bit of dpp magic it should all work

 

[Blue Bloods]

Oliver’s BE is 174 this week, maybe wait a week or 2.

In a perfect world yes, but Oliver $20-$30K less doesn’t worry me to much, could even pump out a 150 vs Tigers.

Not really keen on some of the others around his price and want the upgrade this week. Will have another look thou.

 

[Feerits Elf]

could even pump out a 150 vs Tigers.

Based on what though? Across his career he averages 107.5 versus Richmond, never scoring more than 115. What's special about the Tigers?

 

[madmunza]

Hinge < Preuss
JHF < Rosas
Rowen < Oliver

Cant think that way 35 - 5 = 30

Your missing a mid?

Maybe look at Gibcus (Daicos to defence & onfield) DP Rachele to Mids/ English Fwd, Preuss to rucks.

Stephens > Rosas via Martin

Rowell > Petracca or other premium mid

 

[Shaunpro1]

Any advice on what I should do this week? Had a terrible start and really don't want to just end up making it even worse.

Depends on who you're willing to trade out mainly. Rosas & Preuss the main cash cows this week. I realise Durdin does have a -4 B/E but unless you're willing to field one of Dixon/Durdin/Rosas or miss out in Rosas then Durdin unfortunately needs to go early.

Secondly you need to decide now if you want both Preuss & S Mayes. Meaning you'll like need to offload Grundy this week or Witts next week.

So are you willingly to ditch Grund?

IF YES
OPTION 1
OUT: Grundy, Durdin & McCartin.
IN: Preuss, Rosas, (719k for a mid) take your pick from Steele/Brayshaw/Trac/Laird/Mills

Team would then be:
DEF: Stewart, Crisp, Short, Hewett, Daicos, NOD (Hinge, SDK)
MID: Macrae, Neale, Steele, Miller, Cripps, Rowell, Brodie, JHF (Rachele, Ward, MacDonald)
RUC: Witts, Preuss (Dixon)
FWD: Dunkley, Heeney, Butters, Cogs, Xerri, Martin (Hayes, Rosas)

IF NO
OPTION 2
OUT: Durdin, JHF & Hinge
IN: Rosas, Preuss & (486k for a player) Parker or Gresham

Team would then be:
DEF: Stewart, Crisp, Short, Hewett, Daicos, NOD (McCartin, SDK)
MID: Macrae, Neale, Miller, Cripps, Rowell, Parker/Gresham, Brodie, Martin (Rachele, Ward, MacDonald)
RUC: Grundy, Witts (Preuss)
FWD: Dunkley, Heeney, Butters, Cogs, Xerri, Hayes (Dixon, Rosas)

I guess with the 2nd option you can still grab S Hayes next week at the expense of Witts.

OPTION 3
Are you willing to trade Rowell too?
OUT: Grundy, Rowell & JHF
IN: Preuss, Parker & Brayshaw

Team would then be:
DEF: Stewart, Crisp, Short, Hewett, Daicos, Hinge (McCartin, SDK)
MID: Macrae, Neale, Miller, Brayshaw, Cripps, Brodie, NOD, Martin (Rachele, Ward, MacDonald)
RUC: Witts, Preuss (Dixon)
FWD: Dunkley, Heeney, Parker, Butters, Cogs, Xerri (Hayes, Durdin)

Good luck with whatever you decide.

My initial thought was to do option 3 and be aggressive, Rowell isnt going to be a keeper so may aswell ship him at this point, JHF maybe little more coin to make but 39 in the rolling and Carlton and Geelong the next fortnight, want Preuss and Hayes so a ruck has to go and Grundy is the one with the higher BE with a worse score in the rolling average so is the logical one to downgrade, just got to decide on the combo of premos I want to bring in for Rowell and JHF really.
