Phoenix's Football Sharemarket Game

Featured Replies

Posted

An old ology foe Phoenix ran this Sharemarket game. Was good. He was loud and smart...when he had funds. Haven't heard much from him since Morton plunged from $8 to 8c. Last seen selling at 22c after the dead-cat-bounce when the Eagles got him at pick 88.

Buying -

Nik Nat

Cam Guthrie

Collingwood (bought them super cheap after round 1)

Jack Watts (because MFC supporters are giving him away, and I hope he has Chronic Fatigue Syndrome now)

Brodie Grundy (bought these a while ago)

Jack Viney (price is still cheap because many here think he can't kick);

McEvoy

Matthew Lloyd

Selling -

Richmond (I sold them after our NAB Challenge game)

Liam Sheils (I will take what you offer), Phoenix, you can still play with $8.64

Bomb Thompson (I sold him a few weeks ago),

Luke Breust (good goal assists, but soft and overrated),

North Melbourne (still too hot/cold),

Neville Jetta (sold after his first game of AFL footy, and now selling the gains over the past week);

Bernie Vince (stats sheet looks better than his output)

Dermott

Biggest losses over the preseason

Port - I sold them too cheaply

Freo - I bought too much

 

I'd be buying Aiden Riley - a nice little speculative share that should be quite cheap at this stage.

I'll buy:
Sydney - surely due to bounce back in the 8 and push for the 4

Jordie McKenzie - still have hope he can contribute and must be cheap

Kurt Tippett - the other of Sydney's million dollar forwards to give us something

Mitch Clisby - rate this guy and he's due a chance

Tom Lynch's (Gold Coast and Adelaide) - buying a package deal

Jake Carlisle - this guy can play. Might have to wait for Bomber to go to collect my return but I think it will come eventually

I'll sell

Nick Riewoldt - surely he's at his max value

Ross Lyon - I'm a bit worried about where Freo are heading. If they don't get it done this year when will they? And do coaches get 3rd chances without a flag?

I'm holding

Dom Tyson - think his shares will dive down a bit as the year progresses but still like him long term

Jesse Hogan - got to have faith

 

Back in 1974 or 75 a client of mine got a so called "red hot tip" that a takeover bid for the Phillip Morris company was imminent. He borrowed heaps of money (mortgaged his house) and invested it in the shares and I spent the next 12 months keeping an eye on the price in the afternoon Herald. He sold the shares 12 months after the borrowing and made a small loss. He incurred interest payments, legal and government fees etc. in the process which ensured he made close on a 30% loss all up on an investment of $30k which was a lot of money. I remember it to this day and am not a player in share markets or other forms of gambling etc. (that don't rely on my own skills) But geez, I wish I would have gotten onto Christian Salem for the rising star last week.

Shame WJ. You could've made a killing in the 80's.

Don't like Salem's chances of the rising star. It does look an even crop of midfielders led by Dunstan, Crouch, Kelly and Aish. But I think they have a fitness and readiness edge over Salem not to mention the edge in games.

I think the value remains Brodie Grundy at $17. When the selectors sit down at the end of the year they'll have to decide not who just played good games but who actually had influence and I think they'll settle on Grundy having achieved more holding up the ruck in a good side than midfielders not having spectacular seasons.

TGR thanks for " cfs " explanation, silly me , I'd just thought it was a private scool symtom !

I haven't checked out my share portfolio for some time. I'm guessing there's little currency left in my Clay Sampson, Trent Ormond-Allen and Brent Grgic shares?

I'll buy your Jetta shares.

I'll buy your Jetta shares.

They went up after the game obviously. Good call if it was before the best game of his career. You can still have them, but the price is cheap now, not dirt-cheap like last week.

Fair call, I would have bought them before the game too for what it's worth.

What did you pay for Nik Nat?

I'll take all the Vince shares available, if you can't see his worth then I'll get them cheap and make a packet.

Never bought any Nic Nat shares but if I can get my hands on some I'll parcel them up with the London Bridge and do a special deal for you.


I sold my Brendan McCartney and Damien Hardwick shares a couple of years ago, Melbourne should look to get wins against their clubs in the next two weeks.

I lost out marginally with McCartney but it was Melbourne's game to lose last week so overall I'm happy with my decisions.

Did anyone buy any Cam Pedersen before the GWS game?

No, I sold all of Neeld's 2nd hand bargains (Gillies, Rodan, Byrnes, Pedo etc..) before they arrived.

  • Author

I sold Tony Abbott ages ago too. Making a fair-dinkum killing. I really feel sorry for Ray Hadley not wanting to get out of bed in the morning.

Why do I keep reading this wankfest?

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.
