Listened to the feedback on my earlier posts about trades and filling your boots for the bye rounds and have a few points I am mulling over this year
1. Thanks for the feedback, this (and the shitposting of course) is what makes this forum an invaluable resource. Different approaches and different ideas and people willing to put them out there
2. I am conservative with trades
3. If you trade in someone like Luki based on their bye coverage it's at least two trades (unless he subverts the evidence to date and guns it) as he isn't someone you want in your final team even as bench back up. This applies for everyone you trade in over the bye period who isn't a final 17 player. I am planning to wait until the last minute to make my "filler" trades in order to mitigate the risk of injuries/droppings/general clusterfucks which may result in another trade being needed
4. Post Origin & Major Byes you still need positional coverage to help with byes and minor injuries Hia etc. It won't be pretty if you have a emergency stacked with cheap WFB's & HLF's you traded in to cover spots in Major Byes
5. You will want guys like Grant, Haas, Yeo, Cleary, Hynes etc in your team for the run home...they are by far and away the best in their positions. I reckon you hold as many as you can....it's always harder to get them back
6. I usually have 1 trade for every week for the run home (or maybe say 4 for the final 6). I'm thinking that this will be the minimum needed this year
7. Teddy is going alright for a WFB with SFA attacking stats (particularly if you got him for less than $600k). The Roosters will come good at some point
8. These are all my opinions and could be complete bullshit (i.e. I have never won it
)
