Warriors were clearly done with him though so he would've come cheap.

Yeah just a really interesting grab, as they don't just pick anyone. Work in progress big time hey

Tommy T's range is about 20 to 100.

He will put up a few 20s and 30s.

Can't see him averaging 60 at season end.

If I can somehow work Milf into my team while keeping Cleary this week I will be happy. If I can't do this I may have to settle for SJ next week. Wish Drinkwater was 80K cheaper, then I would actually consider him.

Cleary owners holding or trading.. guess it also depends on if others are ruled out this round..

Can't remember if you were considering trading Fifita out or not

Is it dumb for me to go for Turbo instead of RTS? I'm selling CNK to either of those two, but if Turbo is playing like that, he is a must-have no matter what.

My team before trades:

Cook
TKO, Haas
Jurbo, Lolo, Murray
Munster, Wighton
Nikora, Bateman
Teddy, Ponga, CNK

CS9, Mahoney, To'o, Xerri

Havili, Dearden, Fifita, Kenny

To get Turbo in, I would have to sell Havili down to P Kaufusi (and have 23k ITB), but to get RTS I could sell Dearden to him and have 95k ITB, which might be necessary for me to get to SJ next week. Both Turbo and RTS have fairly similar draws in terms of difficulty of opposition, so that cancels out.

Basically, do you guys think it's worth spending 150k more to get Turbo in (probably a better use of limited trades) or get RTS and have more cash to throw at other guns?

I was, but now it might be Cleary instead, will wait and see. A lot will depend on Haas.

If RTS averages at season average (49.2), Turbo needs to average 54.1 with one less game. Before trades you have 4 players for R16 which seems a little low so I'd probably lean towards RTS

If Milf keeps up his average of 54, Tommy needs an average of 60 to match.

Teddy averages 54 and Ponga averages 60 at FB. It's a huge ask

Milf not a fantasy beast imo. Over-achieving. Would avatar bet but would need to be for next season
 It’s laughable he’s more expensive than DCE

Yeah I picked him up two weeks ago, but I have a strong sense that he is going to disappoint, now that Dearden is injured.

Is Cleary a sell?
H ed is out 4 4-8 weeks..
Should i wait till after the bye b4 I decide or just trade now

Knights website-

Maroons fullback Kalyn Ponga has suffered a minor cork, however should be clear to play this weekend with sufficient injury management.

"Kalyn has a cork just above his knee," Cupples explained.

"It will take a fair bit of application from him this week, to ensure he is right to go for the weekend."

Hey man, no discrimination on age/race/anything for the fact, just saying whenver I see your posts it always reminds me of how I used to write on Bebo/MSN/Facebook when I was 13.

StormTrooper96 wrote:I think TLT will be a good one this week. I think Origin players should all back up. Will need to re-think my trades this week. Wish I could start over.

Comments like this are just asking for trouble. Why would you say something like that ???

Lucky u said that or i might have got offended.

The trade for Fifita is going to bug me all week, deciding between TTurbo, Milford and Matterson

TTurbo:
Pros: Sublime form at the moment, very high ceiling
Cons: Slightly injury prone, not playing R16 so needs to average higher with less games, is performance sustainable with no historical average over 50 (not that it is a major concern when players can have peaks and troughs in career)

Milford:
Pros: Playing 16, can score a try (which is subsequently a con as some poor scores artificially boosted by tries)
Cons: more dominant HLF partner with SOS, Broncos inconsistency

Matterson:
Pros: Most reliable out of options to maintain average, playing 16
Cons: Does he play Origin with Cleary's injury (Graham 6, Matterson bench or do they go Wighton 6. Latrell CTR or something different)

Could always get SST who I was going to get next week and eliminate chance of those who were going to play R16 not playing R16 because of Origin by getting them next week but would then be counter-intuitive to get TTurbo on a bye then next week

DCE was over-achieving too before his injury.

Sorry, I have been out of the loop recently. How come people are trading Fifita? I thought he was just suspended this week.

Nah because he challenged and failed he got 3 week suspension (Tonga game, R15 and R16)

Crap, didn't know that.
