Strategy 2023: Round 2 Trades

[Tamuhawk]

Still haven't decided who to trade Stewart to. I've moved him to Daicos at the moment. Feeling like I'll stick with Daicos despite threats to shut him down.
Other options are going to Sicily, Dawson, Ryan, Ridley... any others? Thoughts?

I think go Daicos/Ridley and bank the 100k. The extra cash may end up being useful for you next round.

 

[quite ironic]

Don’t understand why people are offloading Flanders. Those slippery conditions did him no favours last week, I actually liked what I saw from him. 🤷🏼‍♂️

Basically no CBA with Miller, Touk, Anderson, Greenwood playing.

Scored all the points with that factored in in the preseason but with Touk back he’ll only get mid time on the wing.

Nothing wrong with that but not sure he’ll be an 80-85+ scorer and at 260k and other forward options scoring so well it’s a tricky one.

Can see why he’s one traded out, especially for non Sheezel owners.

Sicily got two CBAs last week, which reduces his appeal from my perspective.

 

[GrainFedBeef]

The point I was trying to make was that the run and carry out of the backs would be shared between Rioli and Short, rather than the Bachar Houli role that Rioli was doing when Short was moved to the midfield.

We are in agreement. The comment was directed to @aj74 who thought he may be underpriced due to playing forward last year, which the heatmaps in early rounds didn't support.

If going early on JHF, would you suggest Flanders or Fyfe.

Flanders agree is not awful, think he is reliant on a string of easy games which are not till mid season.

Fyfe has the best run, was very disappointing last week.

Rampe...but that's just between you and me.

Out of those two Fyfe.

Flanders is more of an unknown so with the option of the two I’d give Flanders another look.

I don't think Greenwood is there anymore. I think he got a couple of CBA's and junked it late. I had other issues so I'm happy to watch Flanders again but I suspect i'll trade him this week.

Searching for a Kelly replacement and just cannot decide on Cogs or Gulden. Cogs feels like more of a like for like replacement but Gulden potentially more upside and gives me some more money to play with next week.

Am really considering going early on Hopper to JHF. Seems to me that both JHF’s ceiling and floor are higher. Hopper has really only demonstrated a 90 average in the past I think but JHF should exceed that at a minimum.

The only thing holding me back is Port play the Pies this week and he might start giving away stupid free kicks if things don’t go his way.

It’s a tough one, Cogs for me… just!

I think both should work out well.
Cogs has more of the the POD factor so that also leads me more in his direction. But his durability last few seasons and potential to throw in a few stinkers has me worried. I have until tomorrow to decide so plenty of time

I think Cogs for a keeper, we still don't know if Gulden's a keeper yet or if he'll exceed his average from last year.

LDU

LDU

He looked great but even against Eagles he didn’t put up a massive score. Is his ceiling a bit lower than others?

Potentially

Guess we won't know for 6-8 weeks tbh

 

[wt44]

LDU

I'm doing a slight restructure and getting Callaghan into the mids too so it kinda has to be a forward at the moment. I'll see how it looks with LDU as I think he has the most upside of the three.

[JMAC]

Feeling a bit frisky, contemplating:

Stewart to Rioli
Kelly to Daicos
Bytel to JHF

Too hasty? Or nice and spicy!

 

[Wingemi77]

Arhhhh wish i didnt see the #35 chart, compulsion to Laird-LDU / Stocker - #35 grows stronger.

#35 was everywhere and with elite endurance as such a young age becomes a difficult tag.

LDU looks stronger and fitter and is off to a flyer. Think he can push 115 this year.

Arrrrrh what to do with Laird.

There is an old saying 'start as you mean to go on' so if a player starts out low chances are it will continue and there's something not quite right, better to trade to someone who has a good improvement and started well eg LDU.
