    Made 2 trades in the emergencies to generate some cash;
    Croker out Cogger in
    Kennar out Payne Haas in (it’s a risky gamble I know)

    So will go back and have a look when needed, but more just for fun to see what happened or my train of thought at the time. Sucks we have to resort to this but the features are less every year

    To be fair have cut back a bit on the analysis this year, 2016 was probably the better one.
    Have about 3 years of doing it now but a lot less tools this year to make it look pretty which I do miss.


    Once that trade is done you can’t change what you paid for them, and injuries skew this even more.
    Still a useful tool to help in your future trades but it’s most useful BEFORE you trade them in, really just a way to justify the trade in.

    Regarding ‘profit’ some people get hung up on holding onto that player to make that extra little bit of $$ as if they are owed it.

    Yes it would be ideal to make a made up profit ‘$150k’ but for everyone of those we get another player like Gosi that doesn’t make as much.
    Do you hold him for 4 weeks and hope he makes the starting line up and makes you that extra 80k or do you cut and run.

    St
    I guess like Kenny Rogers you have to know when to walk away or if his name is Lewis Brown, know when to run

    There's always that talk on what a trade is worth. I'm not that into it as a rule - there's lots of factors from whether you need to trade someone out to whether their points help your scoring and all sorts of stuff. I thought it would be interesting to track it and see what the results were and how many trades I made would surpass that trade worth number. What the average gain per trade I have is. Might be a bit unusual this year due to the high number of players that we probably started with and might finish with creating lots of free value without the need for a trade.

    My average profit per trade is looking pretty low but early in the season there's always a few guys you lose money on like Croft, McCullough and a player I don't want to talk about. It should start to creep up now.

    I can't do anything for myself though, and he made a whole damn site. He can do it. God damn MTB doesn't do enough for the fantasy game already. I mean sure he got a match center up before the actual site. I mean sure he provides BEs for free and a price predictor on his site that Fantasy don't have. I mean sure he has literally everything you possibly need. But I WWANT MORE!!!
    Taken the Eels loss hard Blue? Don't worry we'll bounce back this week!

    No word of a lie, I reckon it didn't click with me for 3 months when he was getting the forum and page up and running. I never thought to question it and one day the penny dropped  Embarassed

    and it's OK when you do get it because you can just take a pill and it clears right up!

    Thanks Bluetige and Random Very Happy . Will probably trade out Brown and one of Rochow/Godinet for Fonua and Fifita maybe. Thoughts?

    Do you means RNGD Analytics? Mate, he is 100% the guy who has done all the awesome stuff over at Renegades.

    Nah I know who he is, hence my previous compliment.

    Was meaning Capn Ranga haha, some of the stuff he writes seems to come from someone who has been around a while

    But if I save them.. then I have Brown, Dugan, Latrell and eventually Fifita in my squad from Round 13 onwards.


    How many points are you sacrificing each round in the mean time?

    I sacrifice the difference in points of Fifita and JMK/Sorenson this week and next week.

    What was the name of your alt account that you returned under for a short period last year? Retro wasn't it?

    I still had the other one open, i just made the retro alt for some fun for for a laugh and to post some funny things without bias
    I wouldn't say if i had another one on here either, need to build these accounts up to avoid suspicion so the move is seamless haha Wink

    Might be a fun exercise to do after work, go through each player i have owned/traded and list them with their gains/losses to see

    Manly's settled and non toxic current environment will be perfect for Suli to slide back into the top grade...I give him till just before the end of the season (yep, that long, he knows he probably won't get another shot)

    I don't think anybody asked for this from MTB? In fact we thanked MTB for the price column added to the page and discussed using that feature.

    I started the convo by wishing FailHub had the feature

    @Random I have Dugan and Brown. I would prefer to hold Brown but the way I see it, I can get Tolo this week, Fifita next week, and potentially bring Brown back in after his 2-3 'eased-back-in' games.

    @filthridden lol!

    I asked if MTB was able to add the pricing history a week ago, as a way to improve the already stellar work he has done on the website.
