Strategy 2023: Round 4 Trades

[Gruffles]

Josh Daicos anyone?

 

[7/11]

Anyone think Sean Darcy is a hold after the weekend?

I wanted to move him to English last week, but had other priorities with all the cash cows on the bubble. He was almost guaranteed to score well against West Coast.

Thinking of still moving him to English, but keen to hear other thoughts.

I’m giving him at least a couple more weeks. If he throws up another sub 60 score I’d have to consider offloading though.

Fingers crossed the Freo mids sort themselves out, as they’re the reason for Darcy’s underperformance more than anything. Get a few extra HTA per game due to switched on teammates and those stock standard 70-80’s turn into 95-110 games.

 

[Uncle Drew]

Yep. You'll see. It'll be a gentle decline at first until it isn't. Some start at 28, some start at 30 but few just hit the wall

If you're saying you think he will decline this year than fair enough. But it definitely hasn't started based on his first 3 games. He's playing well, a bit quiet against Geelong, but his other 2 games were very good. It's just not translating to SC scores.

 

[Amazing Bombers]

Cameron>English
May go Callaghan to Philipps if Philipps named this week otherwise will try and just stick with the 1 trade.

 

[doc ron]

Josh Daicos anyone?

Not as a keeper in the true sense of the word, but if he could end up as an M9 as cover in the run home he wouldn't be the worst option would he?

 

[BomberSam]

With Bowes perhaps not being the pick we hoped he'd be (although it's too early to tell fully), could Massimo D'ambrosio be worth a look at the same price?

 

[Miller is a Steele]

With Bowes perhaps not being the pick we hoped he'd be (although it's too early to tell fully), could Massimo D'ambrosio be worth a look at the same price?

I think he's viable, was surprised how well he scored this week. Lots of points to go around in that Bombers backline though (Ridley, Redman, McGrath, Massimo and apparently Jake Kelly after last week's performance ) which is the main issue for me as well as JS.
If you like him, I'd go for it.
He's in consideration for my team FWIW.

 

[kadog]

Is it worth trading Hopper (M6) in?

Callaghan>Hopper
Phillipou>Rowston

Was initially interested in GWS Bucks but some have raised low possession DT/SC ratio concerns and whether It’s sustainable. Got me thinking twice. Sheez & Ziebell getting Def status soon also gives good cover so probably don’t need Bucks and now looking at Hop.

 

[Shaunpro1]

Ridley-Day
Cameron-English

First trade perhaps a bit of a punt but got to get creative after a poor start, even if he makes a quick 100K it's probably not the worst scenario in the world, Cats,Giants,Crows isn't a bad 3 weeks for the Hawks.

[Masterofnone]

Trade or hold Hayden Young (BE 152). Could bring in Buckley, Day, Baker or Bowes for cash gen?

I'd be happy to move Hayden Young on since I don't think he will be a top 6 defender. Not sure about those trade-in options though - all seem risky.

If no great trade in option then Young is a hold isn't he? No-one else around his price is screaming 'pick me' (already have Daicos).

 

[Montyjnr]

Is there any merit in trading Mackenzie instead of Worpel? Both are on-field for me and I want to bring Hopper in.

I know Worpel just scored 45, but he was still the 3rd Hawks mid in the CBAs with 57% this week (a drop from 77% in Round 1 though) and Mackenzie only had 17%. Do we just put it down to an off-game from Worpel? How sustainable is Mackenzie's scoring?

Mackenzie likely still has ~130K to make, but Worpel can make another 100K if he can get back to 95+ scoring.

Is it worth backing in the more experienced mid at the expense of (potentially) less cash generation?

Is Hopper even playing this week? Have you forgotten Hoppers round 1 score?

Hopper is a certainty to return this week apparently. His role is amazing.

Should make 150K+

 

[Hawk41]

The hawthorn north game was a extremely low pressure game, properly wouldn't have suited someone like worpel but guys like mackenzie and day who have good skills were able to do well due to the low pressure. Also the hawks backs had a field day taking a heap of marks helping sicily, hardwick even frost put up a good score.

I'm tempted to VC Docherty against North this week.

That's what was said about Worpel last week.

 

[Montyjnr]

Yeah and that is why I am considering holding Worpel?
