Barba and Mitchell

SoylentGreen wrote:Which 2 out of Gordon, Barba and Mitchell to play in the 17?

I'd say def Barba against Manly, and leaning towards Mitchell. Gordon struggling and dogs will be tough.

I'm thinking Gavet over BLaw, cheaper, smaller BE and with Matulino out should keep his minutes

How long is Matlino out?

Barba, Mitchell, Gordon and Mansour...

I need to pick 3.. Judging by what you guys are saying it comes down to Gordon and Mansour. (Currently I have got Gordon over Mansour.)

Green > CScott is locked in for obvious reasons.

Leaves me with a CTR/WFB lineup of

Aubbs, CScott, Gutherson, Littlejohn
Ferguson, Barba, Mitchell, Mann, Feeney

Hoping for Feeney to get the boot so that leaves Gutherson as the only other scorer there and he can go okay on any given day.

At what point do you consider RTS?

Yeah hes losing a lot of coin.. Whats to say he has 2 60+ games everyone jumps on him then goes back to his mid 20's?

Was just about to post I Can go LAM - Gavet which allows me to go Tedesco - Gordon/Mansour

worth it?

Probably leave out Mansour. Broncos have leaked the least amount of points.

Wouldn't be surprised if Lolohea goes to halves and everything just works better and RTS nails it but even still his BE means he'll probably drop this week, so it's a wait and see I think week to week

BLaw is coming in to my side. I have Graham. Taupau I'm hesitant on and expensive. I'm having trouble deciding between Ted and JTrbo

My problem is they all; have upside, trying to pick one is giving me a headache
BLaw, while only 1 game, no one would dispute he was easily manly's best, changing them instantly and giving them a chance, had a lot of ioutput. Even off the bench I see him getting 40min and scoring 40
Graham, pretty much a must have, sneakily plays through concussions, plays big minutes and is always moving in to tackle every time, must have for me, this week or next.
Taupau, honestly wasn't on my radar, but looked dominant on the edge and can see Barrett keeping him there as he was a game changer with his runs, can see it happening weekly off quick play the balls, spooning it out to him against retreating defense.
JTrbo, consistency, in everything, only concern is his minutes when Buhrer is back, will they reduce?

I want to give Taupau 1 more week to see if it was a fluke, but if he goes beast mode again he will be over 500k and almost out of reach if I want to keep money for RTS, Dugan and Fensom in the next few weeks (all of them with massive BE and should see some nice price drops).

Second trade could be Leuluai > BLawrence via LAM. Leaves me with 153k.

3rd week for some of the underperformers to show something or have there position strengthened by an injury perhaps, then the axe gets chopping.

Safe trades guys?

Tell me more about this please?

Milchcow wrote:I think my shortlist of trade ins 

Cam Smith
Sam Mataora
Martin Taupau
James Tedesco
Cody Walker
Cameron Munster
Jake Trbojevic

Ideally I think I'd get Taupau + Tedesco but can't afford both, so have to work out what to do.

RTS, Dugan, Fensom, Tolman on the watchlist to come in in a few weeks.

Who is on the chopping block Milch?
Do you think Kapow remains an 80 minute edge forward?

I'm going to watch Munster for a couple of weeks. I hope he does well. What does everyones final back line want to look like?

Gordon - Scott...start Mitchell in the WFB with Mansour & Barba.....allows me to go LAM - Taupau/Parker/Mannering

or

LAM - Gavet
Gordon - Tedesco with a 4th reserve of Taylor/JNiko/Saifiti

or

Get Green out of my ctrs, reassess next week
