2018 Supercoach

My team for this week

D. Cook (S. Havili)*
A. Fifita, J. Graham (M. Lodge, M. Nicholls)
A. Crichton, J. Trbojevic, N. Brown, (B. Cartwright, V. Kikau*, K. Tanginoa)
S. Johnson, C. Munster (C. Watson*, L. Croker)
M. Aubusson, L. Mitchell, J. Mansour, R. Kennar (P. Hiku, J. Isaako, S. Katoa)
J. Tedesco (K. Ponga)*

Prediction says 1091.

How’s everyone else going?

@Onthebeatpete good team there. I went cheap as front row, so I'm forced into trading out Latu this week. Griffin or rochow will probably come in for me.

Would anyone trade out any of Croker, Mitchell or Hayne, and if so, who to?

I have Kikau, Griffin and RFM, so not sure what other cheap cashies are worth bringing in
Thompson not cheap in this game, not sure he is that much value

Any trades I might make look pretty sideways, but my team sucked in round 1, so obviously some improvement can be made.

Might just make Katoa - Doueihi and be done with it for round 1.

Then no doubt have 8 trades I want to make next week.

Graham - Griffin
Katoa - Kennar

Smith
JBrom, Kikau
Harris, Brown, Frizell
JT, Munster
Inglis, Aubbs, Doueihi, Leilua
Tedesco

Cook
RFM
Griffin
Ponga

Lodge, Tanginoa, Arrow, Croker, Cartwright, Hiku, Kennar, Isaako

I'd give the players you mentioned another week.

I would hold onto them Milch, I have Croker and Michell also.
Mitchell will come good and will have the occasional quiet game when his team aren’t dominating. I think Croker will get better too.
I’ve gone Cartwright to Griffin and Katoa to Doueihi too.

Hayne looked much better than expected and also talk of him chiming into some plays at FB, def a hold IMO. Mitchell always rocks and diamonds, def a hold too.
Interesting point about Croker I'm not sure has been pointed out, Austin seemed to be playing on the left so Croker might be starved of early ball (Austin's a notorious ball hog). I'd consider trading him.

Croker got KO'd and is a little lucky he could even get back on the pitch. That must have affected his scoring too.

Think I'll just sit tight and see what happens.

Latu to rochow for me this week.

Got herman and rochow in for sst and leilua2. torn on who to start in the front row and atm my team looks like this

Smith, cook
Herman, Jgraham, Kikau
Jturbo, harris, merrin, RFM
Thurston
Johnson (C)
Doulehi, croker, mitchell, isaako
Ted, ponga,

Could play kennar or hiku in CTW but i think Doulehi will have a good debut against a panthers who started very poorly last week. I have rochow outside the 17 but don't know who I'd drop for him. Thoughts?

Looks good Clack! Nice looking team :-)

Thanks but still conflicted on rochow

Well well would have thought Graham would be the one I should have punted for rochow

Good start with the Friz, shame he couldn't match that tackle output in the second half to go with his try!

Friz went well, dragons look like a new team this year.

Supercoach BEs

Using a magic number of 9000

Trades this week -
Latu and Moses out. TPJ and Herman in.
Went cheap frf to start, trying to rectify it somewhat this week.

i like the herman trade

We're off to a pretty good start in this comp with 6 of us inside the top 10k and another 4 within earshot.

Do you guys think Moses is a must trade?

He won't get sin binned every week, and Parra won't get done 54-0 every week. I think there is every chance he makes back any money that he has lost.

If I do ditch him, i am thinking of Watson in now. Bring in SJ/someone later when have a bit more cash available
