Strategy 2023: Round 4 Trades

[Peter56]

Marshall to Grundy is crazy man. Solid numbers while Gawn is out, then what?

It was a tongue in cheek post, I was not being serious 🙂

 

[frosty1]

Not worried about LDU and Simkin coming back and pushing Phillips down in CBA's and TOG?

Tbh I have barely looked at it. Saw no footy on the weekend, and have yet to follow up on anything. You make a good point though. Whatever I do will be a selection night decision.

I looked back through and I think I'm the only person in this thread who has floated a Gulden out.

He's a good premium option and has performed fine, just like the rest of my premium options. I have no underperformers. I've decided I'm going to take drastic measures to get Oliver, and Gulden, a good premium option, is just one of a few guys that could unfortunately make way. Definitely not wanting his head.

EDIT: I'm looking more closely at Cogs and Doch now, two other good premium options that could unfortunately make way. Gulden is probably safe.

I'd say Cogs - options to switch Docherty to aren't as clear

Are you thinking Cogs is absolutely cooked, or just hunting for short term cash after a crappy game?

I mean, he's a forward premium averaging 100 and has scored 2 and 7 less points in total than Taranto and Rozee respectively. He could just as easily pump out another 140 next week...

Going by price/value calculations, swapping him for Oliver is expecting a 30ppg return for your cash for the rest of the season and blowing up a trade to do so. If you feel Oliver is going to average 135+ from here on in then fire away I guess?

I already have Oliver so not considering the trade myself; merely if you were choosing between Docherty and Cogs to free up cash, forward line options to trade to are move obvious.

Just remember all the sideways trades that went awry in round 3 before you confirm your trades this week.

 

[Athomas]

Think I'll skip Rowston/Phillips this week (I'm assuming Phillips makes way for Simpkin/LDU anyway, but if Phillips is retained with both of those coming back, he could come into contention)

I'll probably let my loops dictate some of my trades this week (I love short term points )

If Wilmot scores poorly, I could look at getting Day (or Liam Baker ) in, moving Constable to the mids. (Can't see Constable back this week)

If Hollands scores poorly, I could look at getting Hopper back in ( ) via Fergus Greene. Realistically this is the trade I could make, as he's probably the only expendable rookie (still has a -13 BE though so will miss some cash)

I don't like sitting on $195K in the bank. If Hollands scores well, I could still make the Fergus Greene > Hopper move, but would be benching Chandler (who I haven't had on the field yet zzzz)

 

[Gruffles]

Can anyone help me understand why Liam Baker is scoring so well?
Is it a 2 game fluke score Brennan Cox style or has he had a role change ect?
Information most welcome

Guns have good games
Role can change too often being Mr. Fix it.

 

[Monya Meow Meow]

What's the latest on Gawn? When is he supposed to come back?
(barring any super healing ability like Stewart possess)

 

[eekraN]

@Miller is a Steele good shout on Bucks. Might bring him in for Callaghan and swing Contable to mids.

 

[Wheedus]

Worpel to someone. Means I can get Chandler on the ground

Maybe Phillips but don't like his JS.

Bowes - meh.

Another 99 from Jack Buckley puts him up there. Appears to have filled the void left by Himmelberg returning to the forward line.

Gonna have to stick fat with Docherty and Andrew Brayshaw. The Stewart to Doch trade after round 1 hurts my brain

 

[TBG]

Not worried about LDU and Simkin coming back and pushing Phillips down in CBA's and TOG?

This is my concern as well for Phillips and for this reason alone I'm going to bypass Phillips. Good luck to those that jump on.

 

[Vicwood]

Gutted and losing patience.

Probably Cameron to English and maybe Bont to Witts.
Ruck line will be Witts, English and Marshall and still feel that won't be enough cover this season.

One short.

Bring in Ryan this week on the bubble.

 

[gutsroy]

Jack Bytel:
Performed well in the twos by all reports.
Wood out and someone else, from memory, not like for like or anything, but a chance to get back in on the reshuffle?

 

[gutsroy]

Maybe another option just do Cameron to Steane if named and Callaghan to Oliver

Didn't Steene get beaten pretty badly in the VFL?
Only his second game there, too.
Assumed McStay and Frampton would rotate in and out temporarily.
Would be handy if it did happen.

 

[Crabby Skills]

Will Day: what're the top 8 defensive chances we reckon? Hawks fans, anyone?

Haven't seen much of him play (didn't notice him against the Bombers really), but the role seems to be there and he seems both tough and composed...

I'm on the fence, but want to sure up the backline - too many rookies on-field..

 

[OVERKILL]

Gulden as a 470k forward averaging 103 with a low score of 85 and people are wanting his head? *** is going on in Supercoach these days?
If he's your biggest problem you should be sitting comfortably in the top 100 imo.

yep and cogs...2 100+ scores and and stinker 3rd round doesn't make sense..

 

[NT.Thunder]

One short.

Bring in Ryan this week on the bubble.

God I hope not, struggle to fill 3 positions on the ruck line this year let alone 4.

 

[Santoz]

Was initially going Cameron to English, although Grundy may tempt me with his upcoming draw.

Issue with Grundy is that if I trade him in & trade him again in a few weeks that I'm churning through trades having had to troubleshoot having a garbage starting team.

Decisions decisions.

I think the question would need to be, who are you looking at trading Grundy to possibly in a few weeks? If it’s anyone but Gawn and Cameron I don’t see how it’s really worth it. English and Witts might not drop in price much if at all. I’m in the same boat and I can fathom a scenario where trading in Grundy makes sense really. I also worry if I was planning on going to Gawn in a few weeks that he’ll be eased back in and potentially miss games if a rest is needed to keep him fresh for the run home.

English I worry about injury but each week I worry and let him slide puts me further behind in points and him further out of reach. Witts I was keen on at the start, should’ve, could’ve, would’ve but didn’t as I really wanted his first couple of match ups. Now his harder run starts.

I can’t see any other option out of English and Witts.
