Lucas for Porplysia, Okeefe or Franklin??

[tank33]

I am thinking of trading Lucas for one of the above players. Okeefe is a consistent fantasty player. Porplysia would give me 180 000 in the bank for future upgrades. Whilst Franklin is also cheaper than Okeefe but I am worried about his consistency and if teams are going to double team him like what happened on the weekend.
Any thoughts much appreciated.

Them 3 players mentioned by the end of the season will all be the same price...

Porplysia will not let up, hees a gun wont get the tag, and with selwood, priddis and murphy and a few others, is the new fleet of premium onballers. He is a gun!

Okeefe get him if your worried about consistancy. He is one of the most consistant going around. he is a rewoldt but a few inches smaller, great mark, great engine, and will go get the ball if its not coming to him. (except he can kick a goal unlike nick at times)

Big Buddy, well this guy will get you 65pts then next week he will get 200pts. gotta love that in a player, can tear the heart out of your opponent in s/c if you have him and your opponent doesnt. but can let you down, hees the type that will get 150 160 170 then you put him as captain and he scores 60.

All in all i would chose Porplysia then okeefe the franklin.

All the best mate

Thanks for your advice. The other thing I was considering as I would have around 280 000 in the bank is to also upgrade one of my average midfielders like Pearce to someone worth just over 600 000 or Coughlan to someone worth around 450 000. My midfield is
Goodes Pendlebury N Stevens Pearce Houli and R Palmer with Coughlan and Bord on the bench. I think im one class player short there with Pearce possibly being the one to step up this year. I am also playing my best mate so week after this so Im trying to get an edge. But is it worth using the extra trade. I can post both our teams if you want to see where you think I can get an advantage. I do have Cox and he doesnt. Thanks again

Yep i agree with you

Pearce isnt my cup of tea! If your going to spend 600000+ then you cant go past the Geelong boys. Del Santo will creep in for a mention as well.

Me personally i would get bartel or Ablett, they are unstoppable, opposition teams dont know who to tag..

And out of them 2 i would chose Bartel, he just manages to rack up the points, Hopefully he has a sub par game and drop dramatically, then swoop.

I'll leave it in your hands to decide the best value player. Hey having Cox is a monster advantage, cant believe ya mate doesnt have him. 1st choice for me.

Goodluck. Take your mate to the cleaners

Definetely worth getting Porpy. Would free up heaps of cash which is the most important thing in the game (after trades of course).

And Franklin is definetely not captain material at all. O' Keefe is a gun but its up to you if you really want to spend that much.

Thanks for the advice. Do you think it is worth spending another trade to upgrade say Pearce to hopefully Bartel or Ablett. I have disappointed with Pearce so far and I want to beat my mate in round four. The option is to trade Coughlan for someone in the 4200 00 range.

Here r the two teams:
Mine
B C Cornes H Shaw Birchall Newman Gram Nicoski Proud ( L Hansen Myers)
C Delsanto Pearce Stevens Pendlebury Houli R Palmer (Coughlan Bird)
R Cox Simmonds (Hampson Kreuzer)
F J Brown B Johnson T Cloke Burton B Hall C Rioli (Lucas Tippet)

His

B C Cornes J Hunt Birchall Newman Mattner Bradshaw Pround (S Thompson S Selwood)
C G Ablett Cross Hodge N Stevens Houli Embley (Barlow Bird)
R SImmonds Seaby (Kreuzer J Giles)
F Riewoldt Franklin Hall Deledio S Johnson N Thompson ( T Hawkins R Gamble)

Any thoughts apprecitated

you should keep Coughlan (now that you've got him). you won't want to burn another trade just to bring him back.

forget rd4. the league is not won & lost in rd4.
