Option A: Trade Hetherington to Niukore
Option B:Trade DCE to Niukore which would allow me to bring in Ponga for Hetherington and also keeping Isaako as cover
Option C: Trade DCE to Farah or Taupau which would kill off any chance of bringing Ponga back in if I went Taupau
I have 3 trades remaining,what do you think guys?

If you trade out DCE who are your halves?

Looks like one of the 2 will take it out now so I'll start tuning in.

Not sure I'll be able to pick one over the other that I want to win so I'll just hope that everyone has a good time.

I barracking for a tie for first please.

@Welshy SJ and ARey with Lewis back up

You will need Ponga for the run, too high ownership to not have for highest scoring WFB in my opinion

I don't mid the trade if it allows that, does Niukore become a benchie for you?

Looking at soro out for Niukore @ WL

Cage fight to decide the winner streamed live on Fanatics TV

I have done 14 injury related trades in 17 rounds. Left with 5 trades and 8 rounds to go.

Surely holding on to trade is worth more than gaining 10 points per round avg by doing Tapine to Farah trade?

Gives me 80 points extra for the year conservatively but if I run out of trade by round 22 and next three rounds I have to play Isaako as 17th player then overall I gain 20 points.

So if I use all those trades similarly I could gain 400 points maximum or 20-50 minimum points.

I thought if I write it down it will probably make it more clearer to trade or not trade but doesn't really help.

Part of the tie breaker rules says lowest team value wins. So no thanks.

@Welshy Martin would move into my 17 and Niukore and Isaako would be my 18th and 19th

I will go option A. I guess it still allows you bring Ponga back.

Someone's done their research!

660th and no hope so I'm going to run without Cook and Ponga as reverse POD's. Determined to save my last 4 trades in case it all goes topsy turvy. That's the only way I can make up possies.

Yep, cage fight is definitely more appealing!

Who are you running instead of Ponga and Cook mate?

Both are going to be in 98% of the top team who are just going to pull away from you, if injuries occur to them they will just be replaced with the next best thing so I don't think you can run without them personally

I'd be keen to step into the octagon

I'm rooting for whomever signs up for our NFL fantasy league in the offseason @Verbal Kint @zorasdomain

Anyone with more than ten trades ranked in the Top 1000??

Bringing in Taupau makes my team look nice but no Ponga. Do you think this team could make up for Pongas absence?
