1)
LAM -> Gavet
Gordon -> Tedesco (Gordon underwhelming, anybody backing him to return to Fantasy form, because I'm not convinces)

2)
LAM -> BLaw
Merrin -> Graham (Via Surgess; feels a bit sideways, Graham probably won't keep up 60's, but will Merrin come good?)

3)
Green -> Somebody
LAM -> Gavet/BLaw

I don't have any faith in LAM to get minutes in that forward pack, but Merrin and Gordon I could be convinced to have faith in with good reason. Green obviously has to go sooner or later. What are people's opinions?

** Or go for cash over points early and go Merrin & LAM to Gavet & BLaw via Surgess, and play a gun down until I can bring Teddy or Taupau in next week? This is also tempting, but costly in trades down the track

That what you were after?

In all seriousness it's a trade you'll regret in rd 23 when Fensom and Parker both have season enders andyou have no trades left.

EDIT: for Johnny and Arsenal.

In all seriousness the first three words were enough.

How about Bhana to mataora?

Sik wrote:Think of it this way. Ash Taylor will potentially play the entire year, unless he gets injured of course. Pending the Reynolds return, Walker may not see game time again. Yes Taylor's ceiling won't be as high as Walkers but if there is for example 50k-100k difference at the end of the year, is it worth burning 2 trades?

ForanAgainst wrote:I think you burn two trades either way. One trade to get Walker in and another to trade him out. If you hold onto Taylor and want to upgrade to a gun later, you're gonna have to downgrade another cow just to get the cash you need to do such an upgrade.

Cartwright ---> Taupau

Goes from one semi-gun and one mid-ranger to a cash-cow + gun.

I know a lot of you think those will be sideways trades or maybe even backwards but it should set my team up for a wee while (injuries pending).

Ranked 998th:

Smith, J-Nik
Surgess, Gavet, Evans, Leuluai
Parker, Taupau, Rochow, Whitehead, Carter, Jafiti
DCE, Walker, Taylor, Hastings
Feguson, Lafai, Benry, Gutherson
Tedesco, Mitchell, T-Turbo, Barba, Feeney

Ferguson, Lafai and Evans are ones I'm keeping an eye on but don't think I'll trade them anytime soon as they're not losing huge amounts of cash and aren't injured.
