Causes too much angst

But can we wait until the Broncos lose? A lot of people just champing to use it. Or is that just me?

Gotta start thinking about trades.  Looks like Murray will stay on the bench with Crichton looking good to go.  I know it's late so I'll chuck my team up and have a look tomorrow and see what I can come up with;

Smith
Fifita Arrow
Taupau Crichton Tolo
MBye Reynolds
Marsters Mitchell
Teddy Thompson Ponga

Cook Murray Martin Griffin

Fonua JFH Coggar Doueihi

Thompson needs to go, but could bench himand play Coggar via MBye.  Would like to get Turbo but would require a downgrade.  Could just do a Thompson downgrade to Olive and play the week out.

15 trades but only 20K.

If you could replicate this on the weekend that would be great thanks Teddy.

Just the one, Gossy to Olive to get some coin and maybe a Rd. 17 starter.

I know what the casualty ward says, but do you think/care Olive will play round 17? Had a great last start, but without checking he was never a strong fantasy scorer in the past. Or is it more a cash out with potential upside?

Way it's gone this year with historically bad fantasy scorers especially backs turning it on, I'd say it's a pretty safe way to go mate

Just tried, still 1 character too long so looks like usernames are limited to 25 characters.  More than happy to change it as much as like you mate, considering it's mulvy and all  

Legend let's go with....

Drum roll....

I think you are probably right with Olive. I don't need a cash out right now. I didn't want to be guessing if a cashie would play 17 though, so my strategy was to cash out to round 13 guys because you could could be certain they would play, giving cash to upgrade to two guns in round 14. I'll likely do the same in 17, cash out a guy or two to a round 17 cheapie giving cash to get back say Cook in round 18. I guess we'll see how that goes.

I'm considering giving SJ the week to see how he comes back, taking a points hit and playing TMM then bringing in Olive because he will be due a big cash injection this week and should play R17

Get SJ in for Murray next week then

What you said TFBB, a cash out with optimistic tendencies if one of the twins is out for 6 weeks. Mind you, playing the Dragons does not see me placing Olive in my 17 this round.

Excuse me, I think you'll find it's F'sFL thank you very much!
