Strategy 2022: Round 8 Trades
- Thread starter Socrates2
- Start date
2 x def upgrades over the next 2 weeks, have to use a boost this week to get Short in (even though I don't like picking Tigers) cos the planets didn't align with scores or BE's. Stewart would be handy with his bye but his price puts me off plus I've missed his big score of the season (Short too) and I see him reverting to a 105 average, so I might take Zorks as a POD because of his ability to go large but that's a week away and a week is a long time in SC.
*Edit......was going to bring in McComb but don't see him lasting so I think I'll go early on Clarke and Carrol who I think will be best 22 going forward, gives me a week to look at Hamilton as a potential Ward downgrade.

Probably early - but do what you think is best. NOD has a pretty easy draw over the next few weeks, so might be ok.
Zorko a tough call - I can't see myself picking him. Think there's so many other consistent scorers down back with a higher ceiling this year that I think Zorko probably finishes at about 15-20th overall down back. Annoying, but I'd wait a week or two and find another downgrade option to hit someone else down back that's more likely to be the top 10 back you're hoping for.

Now is the time to present me with a compelling case for Goldstein and Stewart instead of Gawn and rookie, to ensure Gawn continues on his merry way to another 125+ season average.

Stewart on his way to potentially becoming highest scoring defender of the season, and one of the few players in the Geelong team which won't have his role changed by that muppet Chris Scott.
Goldy solo rucking for the next few weeks and presents big value at ~415k. There's no guarantee Xerri will come back straight away and take back most of the rucking either. Worst case scenario if you need to trade Goldy out later is at least he will increase in price so you could easily side-swap him to someone like English. DPP status helps too!
With all that being said...it's still a hard decision considering Gawn is back in solid form! Good luck whichever way you go!!

Thinking of going
Berry, Hayes & Rachele to Clark, Strnadica & Steele
That ruck line gives me anxiety but very aware of the risk as discussed earlier in the thread.
Can go one up one down with NOD/JHF next week. At this stage looking at either Dawson or Parker.
I feel like my team is actually ok - Cripps captaincy when he was subbed off and Macrae captain this week inflicting damage on the ranking

Strnadica throws another spanner in the works:

Current thoughts are this. What do you all rekon?
I feel like Parker represents solid value as a forward even at his current price.
One of Daicos or NOD has to go this week. I've gone with NOD but could also change it later to Daicos to bank the extra cash.
McComb and Curtis give some good cash gen but does anyone know what their JS is like?
I would've traded McCartin out instead of Dixon but I've got no one else to shift to in defence and we don't have any decent defence rookies to downgrade to! I'm keeping McCartin and hopefully he can get at least 50 this week before I move him on next week.
