Strategy 2023: Round 3 Trades
- Thread starter Tamuhawk
- Start date
Yeah I dunno about that world. However there are plenty of realities where Cameron plays another 21 games and English plays like 16 or something in 4 one month blocks, never being out long enough for you to trade him but scoring you fewer points and charging you an extra 100k for the privilege
Just sayin' 😀

He doesn't need to. He only needs to average 105 for 7 weeks. He's got some stiff competition in the next 5 rounds but if he gets 3 3 90s and a 100 he's projected, he gets to 480k by round 6, having made us 134k in 4 weeks and leaving us 1 up 1 down possibly from any player on the board
It's not inconceivable that he hits those scores.

I would if I didn't need to free cash up to get Daicos... it's almost irrational how much I want this kid in my team after seeing him the first 2 weeks 
Probably going to be my first picked for the next decade, the most talented 2nd year player I have ever seen play at this level.

Current team :-
Initial thoughts were :-
Bruhn > Chandler (Cogs fwd)
Darcy > Cameron
Jones > Daicos
News that Hopper might miss this week, can either cover with Baker or swing Ginbey up via Chesser & play Wilmot (will make him E also)
Team would then look this :-
Cash: $10,300
I would prefer to keep Doch & Ridley (saints this week so should score well given the numbers they are giving up to defenders), Jones last 2 weeks has had 2 head knocks... have concerns.
Means I miss out on Setterfield & Ziebell but they don't really suit my structure/ current requirements.
Open to suggestions

Ridley I didn't watch the game but the red flag was seeing Redman clean up, I think Wog mentioned it also where they'll probably share points week in week out, my question is whether that's enough to ride Ridley at D6? I'm contemplating just cutting my losses (and trades) and trying to ride some luck later in the season and ditch both Richards and Ridley and bring in Daicos, LDU and Darcy Cameron. It also gives me the week to look at Bowes and bring him in next week for Flanders.
I guess with your team, you just have to be comfortable with ditching Darcy to Darcy, everything else makes sense. I again didn't see the Freo game so I'm not sure what the red flags are on Darcy but his numbers at half time were a worry.
I need to surround myself with players I like
I'd put 5 bucks on Cox getting the number 1 role in rounds 4 and 23 (Big O), 11 (Goldy), 13 (Grundy), 16 (Witts), 17 (English - maybe a role share) and 18 (Hodor). All of those guys would slaughter Cameron in the ruck but Coxy goes ok against them.
110 could still happen but I'd temper the expectation a bit. That's 7 games he's likely to be playing forward where he ranges from spuddish to inconsistent.
Edit: The Sam Draper games (rounds 6 and 24) might also see Cox spend more time on ball too. Cox does better than Cameron against the physical types usually

Most talented 2nd year player only because Sheezel is still in year 1

The issue there though is you’ve used 2 trades for $130k. One to bring him in and then the one to get him up to a genuine premium. Not sure the upside is enough to be worth 2 trades - I agree with the earlier comment about either having started him or passing. I think you need either need to bring in players with a chance of being a keeper, or players with a bit more upside.
