WXV Trade Talk

[RaisyDaisy]

Tom Lynch and Billings attracting very juicy offers, so people have fair warning as we nut out details ;).

I'll sell you my left nut for Billings

You know he's worth at least 2 nuts :P.

Even in the Nut market PNL are demanding overs :P

[Hellopplz]

This season we had Swan, Wingard, Westhoff, Lynch, Rioli, Zerrett and Billings all go 84+ up forward. So time to share the love around :-*.

And to be fair, if we do any of the current deals, we're actually going backwards for a Premiership :-X. We're crazy like that at the Reindeers ;).

Most teams only care about their best XV but quality depth is important. I'd choose two 80 fwds at F4/F5 over a 90/65 split anyday. And with restings you could actually get 88 points out of that F4 position. Even without the bonus you have your choice of picking the one with the easier opponent or other factors (like Dickson is a gun at Etihad, Garlett MCG specialist)

I had Lester at U2 and absolutely no depth after the Rio/Christchurch draft. A few downgrades weakened my best XV but improved the team so much and allowed the team to remain consistent over the year and finish 3rd while other teams lost best XV players and suffered since they had not so great players as depth.

Sloane to Boak lost me 10 points - gained Scully who played plenty for me
Devon to Elliott lost me 10 points - gained Clay Smith which didn't work out well but he's still depth for the future
Roberton to Breust lost me 10 points - gained Connor Blakely who'll take over at Freo when Fyfe plays CHF

I've gone too far the other way with my list now, so teams with no depth, come my way and I'll take a good player off your hands and give you a decent starter and quality depth in return. It's worth it.

Yep depth is extremely important and something we have focused on too

Ideally I would love to have 2/3 - 3/4 of our list playing most weeks, with young up and coming talent to compliment that and protect our future, and I think we are doing the best we can to make that happen

Cloke and Rosa seem to be getting a lot of interest. We are talking options involving one or the other, as well as packing both up so if you're interested let me know

I posted on the previous page a list of many other players that we could move on too so check it out if you haven't

[meow meow]

Nek Minnit I lose another 10ppg from downgrading Zorko

[RaisyDaisy]

I really like the look of that 3 way trade

Looks like all 3 teams benefit and it's very well balanced

Nice job lads  :)

[Memphistopheles]

Pick 12 for McKernan?

Wow  :o :o

[Memphistopheles]

Also lads, honestly I haven't had a reply from My Chumps in the last week and a bit. So that's why there's been a hold up on any trade talks.

MC is you read this mate shoot us a PM if you can please.

[Ricochet]

3 coaches are now talking to us about our top picks 1 and 2. If your interested in one (or maybe 2) then now would be the time because they will only increase in value the closer we get to the draft!

[Purple 77]

Just one more coach to go, but whatever they vote, all trades will pass.

That coach is still encouraged to vote though.

Will update lists and such now, but when that coach votes, I will do my normal formal trade summary.

[Holz]

Watch out league Treloar is a force, if he moves to pies the skies the limit. Libba is good too but he is no Treloar. (note im extremely bias towards treloar)

[Purple 77]

Updated spreadsheet:

WXV Current Lists

Still willing to hear suggestions for any add-ons to it :)


And for those that don't use it, have updated team lists and draft order below:

That moment when you realise you have Liberatore and Brad Crouch...

For zero cap points  :P



Actually, I've had Crouch for 4 years now, two of which were entirely absent >:(

[Holz]

is anyone interested in Josh Walker.

I like him, i rate him and he is an original Dubliner but have to move him because of the cap :(

key forwards take time to develop and he is only 22. Knocked up a solid 56 average.

rumours are a few clubs are looking at him with the front runner being Carlton, which you would think wuoud put him as one of the key targets there.

looking for a decent pick given how bad this draft is. I know he is better then probably any guy I can take outside the top 20 but I need it for cap reasons.
