Trade out candidates before Sunday games: Darcy, Baker, Chesser, Greene, Flanders, Ridley
In: Witts, English, DCam, Chandler, Phillipou, Worpel, Setterfield, Rachele, Naicos, LDU

$29k in the bank

Baker/Chesser/Greene to Chandler basically locked.

Darcy to Witts/English/DCam a possibility, Witts in would require a boost.

Ridley will only be traded out if he goes sub 90 which I will likely trade him to Naicos or potentially LDU. LDU would require a boost to get in.

Flanders can either go to Worpel/Setterfield/Rachele which requires a boost or down to Phillipou or a rookie that looks better.

Possibly another of Baker/Chesser/Greene to a rookie.

I’m hoping I don’t need to use a boost and can save them for upgrade season (5 boosts for rounds 6-12 ideally)

Hopefully no Sunday carnage which is very unlikely.

Well after some disgraceful performances today I now am forced into 3 trades.

I said Baker/Chesser/Greene to Chandler is basically locked, but not anymore.

First 2 trades look like:
Flanders to Setterfield
Darcy to DCam
3rd trade is either:
Chesser to Chandler
Ridley to Naicos

Going to be a very tough call I think, usually I would do the rookie swap but Naicos is just a gun. Probably leaning towards the Ridley to Naicos trade at this stage. I think that if Chandler goes crazy it’s not going to hurt me as much as Naicos will due to their ownerships.

Extremely p!$$ed off by how well Setterfield scored. He was on 65 at HT and still would’ve picked him if he scored 95 from there, but he has a 82 point second half and lots jump on. Thought I had a nice POD for a while there. On a positive note that score should make him receive a sharp price increase early on.

Don’t love the Darcy to DCam but no idea where else to find the cash I need ($62k) to get Flanders up to Setterfield.

Would love to hear some other suggestion people have (team in quoted post).

No but I highly doubt that's actually happened to you, if it has for some insane reason, then just contact Herald Suns SC support and sort it out.
yeah it actually did, I undid the trades and it resit itself. all good now, had to trade individually rather than do all 3 in 1

I've had a similar start but won't entertain any thoughts of giving up, chin up mate It'll get better :) especially with moves like that.
Are you in any Leagues? they probably wouldn't appreciate you bailing now.

Just a standard public league. It's all very much feeling like a chore already though.

Because of Gawn and Macrae being a sacrificial lamb I can afford a number of options.

Gawn to English or Cameron.

Have to decide which of these other 2 I take.

Ziebell, daicos, setterfield.

Not saying you should drop JHF but its important not to discount it because of a sunk cost - if you had started JHF would you trade him now?
This is the problem with chasing last week's points. After the preseason everyone want Bruhns 112. Last week everyone wanted JHFs monster score, this week they want Setterfields. Moving one midprcier for another is like shuffling the deck charis on the Titanic.

Is Darcy + Doch + Bruhn > English + Daicos + Zieball/Setterfield a smart move or am i burning trades and a boost?
Thinking something very similar, need funds to get Sheezel in so thinking Docherty, Darcy and Comben for Daicos, English and Sheezel.

Or my other option is to leave Daicos for now and trade Daniels, Darcy and Comben for Sheezel, English and Caminiti.

307k in the kitty after trading Kelly to Callaghan

Gawn > cameron
A defensive rookie > naicos
Fyfe/Allen > chandler …. Or rachelle???
Feels pretty straight forward for me this week:

Gawn > cameron
Chesser > naicos
Fyfe > chandler

Means Darcy survives.

Leaves 275k in the kitty and hopefully, this is the last boost I have to use for a few rounds!
