Short answer, yes.

Long answer, who does that $12k buy you? Are they a keeper? Will any of the group you listed be keepers?

No one yet... just want a more consistent scorer, I see a b/e of 49 for carty and can just see a 10 missed tackle game on the cards for him.

I'd be keeping him unless you were upgrading him to a Gun. Inconsistency is part and parcel of owning him; under 30s come and go but so do the 70s.

Irrespective of that, it's definitely a sideways trade but if you legitimately think he's going to suffer at the hands of the Sharks then I can (kind of) understand why you'd trade him out

what's cartys avg minus his 14 point injury game?

just a tad over 49 if my maths is correct.... 
kind of becoming self-evident to hold. 
owning him and taupau certainly rollercoaster of emotions at times

RTS - DeBelin via DPPs
ATaylor - Norman

Cartwright to Mannering and a Saifiti downgrade next week.

And then hopefully can go trade free for a while, only banked 2 so far.

Cartwright has always been someone I've been looking at trading before the byes (Panthers miss 12 and 15) unless he somehow hit a 55-60 average - and he hasn't. He's an easy trade to a Mannering-level underpriced keeper, I think, but doubt it'll harm you too much holding him for another few rounds if you have other issues to fix or want to save trades. Last week's performance was fucking frustrating to watch though.

I'll do you a solid and trade him out for Mannering. Now watch Carty go large!

Neither of which play round 12...

Round 8 Match Thread

Trades this week:

Walker -> Norman (bye planning)
Cartwright -> Mannering

Leaves me with RTS, Jaifiti and Taylor as NPR's to cash out but because there are no cash out options I like I'm bringing forward next weeks trades instead. If I cash out now, I'm just guessing. It's why I usually play my Knight before my Bishop, because it's usually more obvious where you're gonna put your knight. Maybe some cows pop up in the next couple of weeks.

I really think Tui could be a keeper in the centres. Love the kid. But with Holland Aubbs and Claw there, I don't think I can fit him in and I don't want to trade out the others yet.

Rant over

Almost clicked on it. Almost

Yeah I clicked on it. One of your best yet HS

@Krump

ain't putting the c on Smith because he plays Monday, putting it on Mannering

avatar bet Smith gets outscored by capten Manreng?

I knew the Warriors were also playing on the Monday as well!

Honest

Do it

Struggling to fit Tui well. Will wait and see what happens with Maubs when Cordner returns.

Does anyone know how long Fonua Blake is gonna be on that Manly bench

Was thinking Saifiti > Blake and Walker > BHunt
