In my SuperCoach draft league, I have Dayne Beams sitting on my bench due to injury. I am getting a little sick of holding onto him especially since I'm not 100% of when he is returning. But let's say he isn't playing this week and is returning soon, presenting some value to other interested teams in the league. I have a team who has offered Barlow, Fyfe, McVeigh and Priddis to trade for Beams. Which one presents the most value for long term value. Keep in mind i have the following midfielders already in my team: Ablett, K Cornes, S Thompson, M Murphy, Stanton, S Selwood, L Hodge, D Hanneberry, Monfries (FWD), Chapman (FWD), Rioli (FWD). So who would you choose and why?Barlow, Fyfe, McVeigh or Priddis?
How many MIDS do you have on the field at one time? You have a pretty good spread of MIDS as it is, have you thought about trying to use Beams to strengthen a different line? but to answer your question, Fyfe for upside, Priddis for consistency
Yeah I would be looking at maybe making a trade for a Back. Maybe you should make a few offers to those teams that showed interest in him
Your opponents are actually trying to trade for him? Wow. Obviously he will be valuable when he returns but I would not give up one of my playing premiums for him. In my league one of my opponents drafted NicNat. Once his injury was disclosed he kicked him out into free agency. I decided to gobble him up and put him on my bench. Bench players are largely unused anyway so he does no harm there and when he returns I certainly want him in my hands and not somebody elses.
I picked up NicNat off the wire too, enough room on the bench to stash him for a few weeks. Bench was a bit thin for a while there with Boyd and Stevie J out, but once they are all back and firing it will have been worth it
Thanks for the advice guys. I could use one more premium back or forward. I'll hold onto for one more week and do a bit of sniffing at the other teams the mids on the field at the moment at are ablett, Stanton, murphy, hodge, cornes, Thompson.
You are either very lucky or you are playing against some people who are not TooSerious. How did you end up with Ablett, Murphy AND Thompson?!
We only had five people in our league and filled the sixth team with early round draft picks of the last few years. I'm probably the only one from work who goes onto TS.I luckily got the first pick from the hat, meaning I'm picks 1, 10, 11, 20 etc.This was the draft order if you are interested. <table border='0'
