Hey Welshy. IMO jelejasof has given you good advice.

Mbye - Johnson seems a bit sideways, with Johnson playing in R15 and Mbye playing in R18. It might be worth waiting a week to see what happens at the Roosters with Hastings. Maybe a Hastings -Johnson or Hastings -Pearce trade might be worth considering in R15 if Hastings gets dropped. That's what I'm doing with my team.

I don't like the Holland - L.Brown trade at all. I wouldn't touch Brown with a 10 foot pole. Brown plays in R15 but Holland plays in R18. Not sure who to suggest really. I'm holding Holland for R18 in my team if that helps.

Roosters and Eels play in both R15 & R18, so they are the prime candidates apart from genuine guns and cash cows. But if I was you, I would be tempted to NOT trade this week, since nothing really stands out atm. Your team is well-placed atm, and you will be surprised how valauable those extra 2 trades will be towards the end of the season if/when some of your guns get injured.

"When in doubt, DON'T trade" is a good (but often forgotten) motto worth following in DT.

Some sound advice there Tombsy IMO.

Goes completely against my mantra of "If in doubt, trade them out".......but sound advice nonetheless.

you are correct.

Actually, ST still calls me BlueOz cause he can't get his head around my new name !! ( its only been 4 years and he needs time )

Simon Templar wrote:

Hahahaha!

Why do people keep calling me Tombsy and/or ST when my name is Simon Templar. ;-)

And yes Lion Red Legends is the team belonging to LRM (Lion Red Mike) who was a regular in the DT thread back in it's formative years.

KFP changed his name to Bren, but he still gets people calling him KFP.

Once a name is established, its hard to shake.

I still refer to Myer as Grace Bros a lot of the time.

I'm so old school I even use the words "he's" and "his" correctly

Good thinking 99.

I'm not convinced Mbye is a keeper, so I may still make the SJ trade

Mbye might not be a keeper for the whole season, but he MIGHT be a keeper for R18.

Wise words mate!

Will give Hastings another go and see if he is still there for R15 if Pearce doesn't return
