Strategy 2024: Round 23 Trades
- Thread starter Shannon
- Start date
For those that still have trades, what are you thinking?
Those with English I assume will be looking at Xerri if they have the cash, maybe Marshall as a cheaper option (129 avg last 3 v cats this week)
Doubts on Sheezel with his ankle issue, in a moon boot currently.
Grundy with just 1 score over 100 in his last 7, looked tired the last few weeks to me.
Personally have 2 trades left & 39K in the bank.
Contemplating a few different trades if Sheezel is out & if I move Grundy on :-
Sheezel > Sinclair
Sheezel > Clark (118 3 round avg), Grundy > Marshall
Sheezel > Amon (101 3 round avg - Richmond & North last 2), Grundy > Xerri (no English)
Here is my current team:-

Ranked 92 overall currently - would love to finish in the top 100
Open to all suggestions/ opinions

With the money you have in the bank:
If you go Grundy to Xerri
Sheezel to consider Amon or Roberts
If you go Grundy to Marshall
Sheezel to consider
Newman, J Clark, Mckercher, Battle, NWM, Houston
I like Xerri/Roberts and Marshall/ Newman
J Clark, rumors he could be out

Final 2 trades list most and need to nail to get into the grand finals
Tossing up between the two options and would love some help
Sheezel and Curnow OUT
Option 1: Newman and Rankine IN
Option 2: J Clark and D Moore IN
See pros and cons with both but struggling to split….wish I could get Sinclair but leaves me with insufficient cash to get a decent forward for Curnow …

My English & Sheezel cover?
I’m down to my last trade and unclear on the likely duration of both their injuries/outs but thinking Sheezel more likely to be rested again and WBD will want to get English back. I don’t want to second guess and trade Sheezel so thinking to hold and see what eventuates next week.
I can cover Sheezel with Evans; Jackson (F6) can cover English via Livingstone and I can cover him by bringing Heeney (M8) to the forwards via Dowling (F7) then field Humphries as M8.
Gives me cover albeit not ideal but think that’s the best option or should I bite the bullet, go all out and trade Sheezel to say N Martin and worry about next week GF if I get there.

Locking in a rookie score this week to hopefully avoid a rookie score (or donut) next week doesn’t sound ideal to me from an overall points perspective, but it sounds like you’re league focused at this stage.
Given that, I would look at whether you feel you may need the extra points this week, and what your options are to track that question throughout your matchup and pull a trade only if it looks like it’s needed. Eg which rookies or injured premos play late, and which premos also play late that you can trade them to (including budget and positional considerations) if your league matchup warrants it.
