Round 6 - Teams, Trades & Discussion.

[Interceptor]

Ablett out for another 3 weeks
Suns also lose Matera for a month, meaning Hall might replace him.

[OnSong]

I don't think stuck is the right word. Been pretty happy with them so far.

Not keen on Pfeiffer as he looks like a fringe player at the Power.

Consistency is a concern, Bugg, Giles & McDonald have been the only 3 that have produced on a regular basis.
Others have gone alright at times.

Consistency has been a concern for nearly every friggin player but Ablett this year.

Traded Ablett last week. Wish I did the same with Fyfe now. Lol

[Q.]

Ablett out for three more weeks?!

[OnSong]

Ablett out for three more weeks?!

That's the report doing the rounds.

[Q.]

Phooey.

Hope they are just foxing.

When is the right time to take the cash cows to the slaughterhouse...

When you think they wont make you any more cash or when you see a newbie who's at a baseline price and about to go boom.

So would trading in Devon Smith for Darren Pfeiffer fit that?

You'd make $97k on the trade alone and Pfeiffer is guaranteed to jump in value (provided he plays) and Smith is likely to drop in value if he plays.

Possibly, I'd like to see what Pfeiffer's role is like more though as he doesn't really score too well just yet.
It's pretty slim pickings though with rookies coming through.

Big wraps on Zorko a for/mid from Brissy, expect him to come in within the next 2 or 3 weeks. Like all rookies though you like to see how they perform on the big stage first before committing

With Ablett possibly out for another 2-3 weeks, i really hope the General doesn't strike down Marc Murphy this week.

Think Judd might get a break.

Makes it frustrating having so much coin sitting on the bench for so long, the missus has Sandi & Gaz on the bench, more than a million doing Jeff all.
I have Swan, Boyd, Pendles, Deledio, McDonald and Magner as starters for now with Fritz and Gaz on the pine, I can always shift Fritz forward if there's injury clouds. The temptation is there to do a sideways trade for Gaz for a couple of weeks though, I'm doing well with my trade count thus far. (DT).

Swan, Stanton, Boyd, Judd, Pavlich, Magner, McDonald & Ablett in SC.

He's a real Brownlow chance. Don't think they'll rest him

I hope you are right but i don't think the brownlow will come into their thinking however.

Hope you're right.

[Media Park]

Anyone else have Sam Rowe in DT or SC?

[Lightning McQueen]

Anyone else have Sam Rowe in DT or SC?

No, I'm not in the 4.82% of dreamteamers or 5.54% of supercoaches.

[whufc]

Not sure whether to get rid of Ablett for Swan and then try and find a way to get Ablett back in down the track big risk though!

Already done it. Did it last week.

[nuggety goodness]

Yep I traded him out last week for junior McDonald. With ablett out for another 1-3 I will prob get him back after the byes...

Currently have $730K in the bank and he likes of shiel, manger, junior, Toby Greene, Ellis, Morris, Milera all approaching their end dates plus treloar and Kennedy who won't be far behind them. Then once redden, Stephenson, and hall get some more game time and smedts and Tomlinson can increase enough to cash in I reckon my second half will be quite strong.

Have 19 trades left so potentially 8 upgrades and 3 or any more LTIs...

The difficulty Im facing right now is Cox... He's averaging 94ish which is below what I expected of him... Do I sideways trade to NicNat or HMac or stick with him?

I've also decided that the bye weeks are write offs, I'm not too worried about them, I'm 3-0 in the Hogg so no sideways trades for me during those weeks, just play with who I've got, if that means 0-3 through those three then so be it!

I can't see you retiring on the increases of the highlighted ones, they're hardly setting the world on fire, they are cheapies for a reason, you get your 50 to 60 average with the odd spike.

This has been the worst season for rookies since of been involved with fantasy footy, there's usually half a dozen at least that have blossomed early.
