Finally, and what a round to get it in.

Well done mate.  And you were going to give up a couple of weeks ago.

Trading open

SJ dropped 140k in two weeks! Down to 660k....

When I traded SJ in a few weeks ago, he was more expensive than Milford.

Now he is $85k cheaper.

Yikes. 855 made me slip another 100 spot, 357 rank. I'll name my season drift away!
Su'A out for me this week. Have 819k spend limit.

I am back into the top 1000. Ideally I'd like to increase that to the top 500, but think its going to be a struggle unless all the popular players I don't have get injured.

Only 1 trade left which will be saved for long term injury replacement only.

Congrats!

I want to trade JFH to a good WFB or CTR for the final spot in my 17. Should I go with a Jayne/Calker type in one trade and keep two trades for injuries.

OR

Should I go JFH> Aekins/Fainu/similar this week, and then Brimson/Stimson to Ponga/Teddy whenever I can afford it. Would be playing Lewis/Brimson/Stimson as 17th man if I can't do it straight away.

Arrow or JTurbo to bring in this week?

I have neither and am saving my 4 trades for injuries-I have 500k but want to play the different strategy and stick with current team. That is the only way I can make up ground.

I personally am nervous about JArrow in my VSDT team, I reckon I'd go Jurbo.

I scored 1003, my first 1k ever. Is this dreamland? Fuck me I can't believe it

Holy shit Arrow didn't play? I just realized I got DCE's 56 as emergency. Wow.

Did you have Holland in your AE before Mann? My guess is for whatever reason Holland ended up allocated as Tedesco's AE. Meaning you didn't have Holland to slot in as a CTR and Mann wasn't available for WFB as it was filled. .

If true, it's good that this fault was discovered in beta testing and not in the business end of the season where it's more important that the subbing works.

oh wait...

It's to upgrade Su'a so I'll need to pick a forward.

How's ya trousers?

Dumped Mitchell to Marsters yesterday, 33 doesn't fill me with happiness but better than 0. Up about 200 spots to 529.

4 Trades left, $148 ITB. Running a solid line up with TPJ as 18th man. Hope he hasn't got a major injury, but he can easily be upgraded if he is. Any word?

I have Holmes and Dugan, but no Teddy. I'm thinking about going all in on him as my final upgrade. Holmes is pumping keeper numbers at fullback, but needs tries. Dugan is a bloody unknown, but gives me centre cover if he's playing (other than Holland). Not really sure what to do, might wait a week and see how the numbers look. Turbo is crazy value also..
