Anybody going Goldy to Mummy?

I suspect is a very sound moneyball play but doubt I could pull the trigger.

With cash generation drying up I could put that $200k to good use however no Ruck cover is a much bigger risk with Mummy than it is with Goldy and there is currently no decent RUC/FWD to target to assist in that regard.

More likely to go Gawn to Mumford if anything.

Is Stack actually worth getting in? Seems to be following the Josh Glenn rule pretty well...
I think he is. 102k rookie at this stage when rookies haven't quite peaked makes sense. Adds an extra $20k to the downgrade. Hoping Gibbons can hang on and I can just do Butters to Stack. That 23 will stall Butters' price movement.

I'm looking at this also. Incredibly risky but I need to do something to try and save my season.
I'm personally not likely to do either. Don't trust Mumford's body or behavior to hold out for the season. Last thing I need is to trade him in for a 79 and he gets a weeks suspension.

Trying to think of a way to get Stack in and Rockliff via Butters.

I reckon Constable & Butters to Stack/Ross and Rockliff might actually be affordable and leave me with a midfield of:

Cripps, Cogs, M.Crouch, Steele, B.Crouch, Rocky, Libba, Walsh
That looks about as risky as it comes and you will leak points in the second half of the year.

Fyfe, Neale, Kelly, Macrae, Bont ect ect ect

Might be overreacting a bit here but now that Gaff's back fit and firing is it too early to trade Sheed? I have around 270k in bank and can get Neale even if his price goes up to 700k.
Question is...he is actually worth getting @ 700k? lol

The one problem I see with this is what if Stack only plays 3-4 games himself before he dissapears and then he is pretty worthless to downgrade.

I guess it is a matter of who has better JS , given Balta lost $$$ , Scott vanished and Gibbons doesn't look promising need to do something.

Anyone seen any data on Stacks at different levels, how he scored? has Sydney, Melb, bulldogs and dockers to come.

Not too early, I'm considering it too.
But don't dump all your cash into Neale at 700k, that's a waste unless you'll think he'll average 140 from here in. His price will come down and then get him.

I'm looking at Sheed to either Yeo or Cogs. Their price difference at the start of the year was nearly 200k, now for about 50k (I'm guessing) you can swap in. 50k and one trade to turn a stepping stone into a premium feels like a good move, I just don't know which to pick!

Constable has a lot of mooing left to do yet! He could work his way to nearly 400k based on how he's looked so far. Is there any other way? Darcy Moore maybe?

Most likelyhood will be either atkins/butters for stack.

Tempting to pull a big move like goldy to mummy but don’t think it hugely pay off long run

Do we know why Butter was so poor, less mid time more HF?

Butters to Ross gives me 250k to upgrade Moore to any forward not named Boak, Collins to a 500ishk defender or B.Crouch to Neale type moves.

Don't have his numbers but he's a kid who's already had to earn his spot on a list after being overlooked.
Looks comfortable at level,reckon he's safe for a while

"Sydney Stack (Western Australia): After failing to meet team standards and being left out of the Western Australia team for Round 1, Stack worked his backside off as one of their better performers in the back half of the carnival. Stack averaged 21.3 disposals through the midfield showing off his speed when he collected the ball on the outside."

Looking to double downgrade this week but really unsure of Z Clarke. Any bombers fans know Z Clark's JS? not sure if he's worth getting as a R3 (bines swing to Drew to pocket cash). I remember reading somewhere that McKernan was out for a while but not sure if it's worth pulling the trigger. Could be useful during the byes (assuming he lasts till then) or for a cash grab in several weeks time....

Thanks in advance! :)

Cheers but I already have Coniglio if that's who you meant. I'm not sure about Yeo because I'm worried he won't consistently score above 100 at his price! Ideally I want to swap out one of the port adelaide rookies but to be honest I've got no clue what I'm doing! :LOL:
My team is below! any advice is much appreciated!
Thanks!!
