[Eth 4]

Eth - Is Savage now off the table & Hodge back on?

Your confusing me massivley.

I wanted to trade one of them, and I originally thought it would be Savage who should go because he was the fourth or fifth best mid.

He's probably my best player now, so I'm tossing up other options as to who could be traded.

[Eth 4]

Just lost Rioli to hammy for who knows how many weeks. On top of losing Roughead.

Injuries just kill you in this game! You're a chance this weekend Eth.

Consider yourself lucky, mate.

Two players down and Savage on the bench and you only beat me 5-4.

Hopefully a strong run home.

Well played HT - Your side was all over me through all 8 Games this round

Just about ready to concede season 2011 all over for my rabble of a side

This week I am having a player FIRESALE - Entire side on the Table

They may not have geled collectively as a side however some handy individuals who would be very

useful additions to the correct line up.

Dont be shy all reasonable offers will be looked at this week.

Yeah, you've picked a good side, but still, that was like Melbourne and Collingwood of Round 2 last year

You probably already know this, but if you don't JCB, this is how you do it. If you want to propose a trade, you can use the "Propose trade" option, then click on the coach you want to propose to, then select their player(s), 'continue', then select your player(s) then 'continue', then submit the trade.

Like I said you may have already done this, but I thought I would explain it, just in case you didn't know.

PS. I noticed you hadn't done any trading, thought I would help you out just in case it wasn't explained to you.

Thanks HT--I didn't know how that worked.. now I do..thanks sincerely for pointing that out.Very much appreciated.

I wish I still didn't know how it worked - I would probably have a stronger squad now.

You have gone a little crazy since I walloped you.But it doesn't matter much.RR will romp in..got the smarts.. the list he has created and the way he has coached, although I had a WIN over him(a little lucky though). The other whom is coming hard with momentum is last year's winner and overseer--J.A.(Jack Attack).

Jayceebee... Sandi couldn't just get me 1 or 2 more hitouts? That is a TOOOUGH loss for me. And now he's gone for the year, I think... Ouch. Well played though, deserve a place in the top 4.

Dappadan on a HUGE slide... My finals aspirations in tatters. Big Dappadan shaped hole in the 8 waiting for OMR, HT, rpfc...

Hang in there, luck will open up--but suggest you have a look at either trading or pick up a ruckman- if there is one..Clarke from Freo maybe worth a look? And maybe get rid of Everrit

Scott Pendlebury - Ranked No.2

For Sale - Will take a massive offer to make this happen

I will need a quality replacement Mid & Power Forward

Who's feeling creative

Your crackers..hold onto your best-changing for the sake is stupid..Have a look at Range Rover - he is planning for the finals now..gaining all the advantages he can right now..SMaRT Move..

If you hold your nerve you will make the 8..When the Russian finds fitness- hope it is next week, Ryder hits form and Davey is back.. then you have a top 4 list..

[Arrow 1,257]

Demon_Land7 was bottom of the ladder 6 rounds ago. Beats snomeD who was sitting 2nd 9-0 and cracks into the 8. Talk about coming home with a wet sail. Look out RR

Hard to argue against solid advice like this JCB

Just not sure with 6 rounds left "Holding My Nerve" will get the job done.

Will sleep on my final strategy & think this through before one final assualt on this comp.

Thanks for the advice.

Shuffling deck chairs. The only rucks worth taking at this stage aren't available. All my eggs were in the Sandi basket... Gonna be tough to eke out a finals win now.

As in 2 players? Let me have a look. :D

I need a goal kicking forward. Bernie Vince is on the table.

I'm right behind you in your slipstream.

[robbo24 66]

As a general comment about trading. I'm finding only a small number of you are willing to trade to create a win/win situation. These people are also higher on the ladder. It's hard trading with some of you who have a hint of greed in your trading strategies. It is easy to see why these people are down the lower end of the ladder. (Queue me losing every game from here on)

Well if this aint the pot calling the kettle black.

At this time of year it's nearly impossible to get a trade going. I would offer to take Goldstein off your hands, but I wouldn't go for something that ridiculous since you're obviously not mentally impaired in any way. However when you offer me McKintosh who hasn't played a game this year, who will have to play second fiddle to a guy who will likely be on the AA bench this year IF he plays... for Deledio, one of only a few backs who are ranked in the top 100... and you don't call yourself greedy?!!! There's nothing "win/win" about that...

There's a reason you don't trade when you're up the business end of the ladder. If I were RR (and I was in the first 10 rounds) I'd be sitting back and chuckling. Why change your list when you're smashing everyone!!!

[jayceebee31 761]

Glad to read the heat is really on us.Dappa has taken my advise-good on him..RR is the one to catch and the one to beat.. however he is vulnerable right now..He is changing his side around nearly every week.So he can be caught by a few of us.The eight is going to be very tight and any one of us can win on our day..HT looks another who has the team.

Good luck to all including my opponents. Scarlet will be hard to beat this week also.

As you are near the top of the ladder I clearly wasn't referring to you Dappa.

[robbo24 66]

As you are near the top of the ladder I clearly wasn't referring to you Dappa.

And if you look at my trade history, I have been very respectful of win/win situations.

I did not offer only McIntosh, who I believe you will need going forward, but also Bernie Vince who has shown he is more than capable of 30 possession games and kick goals. I threw Deledio out there to see where you stood and you replied with a no. Which is fair enough.

I am more talking about others who seem to take off about 50 ranking points for their own players and add 50 onto yours when trying to get a trade done.

Put up a worthy trade to me.. stress the word..WORTHY..has to be worthwhile to both - for a Win/Win..that is the major issue that I have noticed during my time here.You also made a very bad blnder getting rid of Ablett.

Yeh I know. Watsons injury on the weekend simply rubs salt into the wound. However I needed goals and lost this category way to often. Walker was doing OK but only kicking goals against weak sides. Hopefully Franklin can do his job for me and the rest of my midfield can hold steady until Watson returns.

Thanks for the wrap JCB. Things are going well but have been hit by a few injuries of late and will have three forced changes this week with West Coast's bye. If there were odds, the in-form JackAttack would be worth a flutter against me this week in what shapes at the match of the round.

Does anyone know, are there finals or is the winning order established after the final round of home and away?
