    Sounds more rounded, Have spent the past hour myself with those captain tier guns but the cash just isn't there to fill the 17 out
    At least that way Lucy can be played and worst case traded later when you cash a cow out

    Normally I would say pick and stick, but with no byes to make up ground in, and goal posts constantly moving, yeah why not. And if I know Bethany, you like a good POD so have at it. You have Mulvy's permission.

    I think I'm gonna do it, I just have a sneaky suspicion that Seibold will keep taking Haas off the way he did last week, whereas Lolo seems locked in for 70 minutes, plus Lolo is way more of an attacking threat than Haas is.

    Worst case scenario, I lose like 20 points, but best case scenario I gain just as much, if not more.

    Quite a few new people round this week which is good to see. More the merrier. Must have seen the Fanatics tweeting up a storm 😉

    You have to ask?

    Edit: Sorry that sounds douchy. Yep that option sounds better to me. I have HTF and regretted it the second I brought him in, one of these fast guys like JAC who might go well as a football player but sucks at fantasy. And that's if he plays and with Holmes nearly back I'm worried. Lolo is full price, Kapow is unders, and going that way balances your team better.

    PYTM, is there any word of setback that you know of Barnett’s injury?
    He’s moved to indefinite on the casualty ward where he used to be ‘July’

    That plan sounds much better, as amazing as Lolo is, he won't get much more expensive than he currently is, and I think Carrigan + Marty scores more than Lolo + HTF

    Especially if HTF scores zero when Holmes comes back this week. I'm not privy to any Cowboys info, but I reckon Holmes will play, and 50/50 on whether HTF retains wing role or drops out.

    3k short of Wiliame>Niu funding my Moses>Cleary trade

    Can either cut Crichton loose (have Fui and Talau at centre also)
    Or downgrade Rudolph who is in my 17 (Joliffe maybe? Pretty damn sideways ;/ )
    Maybe I just settle for DCE

    One vote for DCE and spend the money wisely elsewhere.

    Disappointed with the four trades this week. Feels like a cop out. That said looking at using them all lol. Thinking about Moses>Johnson, Katoa>Robson, Wiliame>Niu, and Rudolf to some cheapie, maybe McIntyre or Herbie. Would leave me with 175k for JTB>Kapow next week.

    Would need to grab Teddy and another second rower to finish the team. Looking vastly different than the original plan.

    Grant
    Haas JTB
    Yeo Lucy Lolo
    Johnson Pearce
    Best Lomax
    Papa Mitchell Ponga
    Koro Friend Robson Carrigan
    Talau HTF Niu McIntyre

    You can all avoid Sironen if you like.

    He has gone up in the pecking order though and I’ll repeat what I said this morning, Amone is now out long term, Nicholls played like trash and is now rightfully out of favour, Mago is not fit enough to last longer than 10mins out there hence why he’s not in the side and if he comes in at any point he won’t play longer than a 12min stint and it’s why he’s struggled making it in first grade over the years as he’s not fit enough. Really apart from that there is no real threat to Sironen. Last couple of weeks Koloamatangi has also dropped out of our best 21. After Knight comes on for Tom, second change is Tatola off for Sironen. At worst Sironen still gets 28-30mins but I can see Wayne bringing him on for the last 10mins or so for either Lowe or Su’a like he did last week. If Lowe or Su’a go down Sironen would take their spot on big minutes. I am confident Sironen will keep getting 35mins, maybe 40 some weeks. No reason he can’t average close to 30 for now and make a handy 100k plus be a handy 18th or 19th man.

    Hmm, so would you recommend selling either Wiliame or Averillo for him? I have lots of outside back cover but not much cover for back row, and he could be a handy way to bank 50k.

    As long as he's likely to stay in the team, I don't mind him getting only 30 mins, I just need a reliable warm body for that spot.

    Is it worth swapping Moses to Teddy and completely setting my CTR's and WFB's for the season pending injuries/supsensions if it meant I only had 100k and the stellar money making line-up of Clune, Talau, Niu and McIntyre to fund upgrades for Luai and JTB?

    Yes I’d get rid of Wiliame or Averillo to Sironen. He will stay in the team unless he gets injured. I can’t see him playing any less than 30mins.

    I’m still torn over Young and Butcher.

    I do not trust Robbo though so will probs go with Young as I think his JS is very good.

    Unless he’s playing purely in the middle he’s going to struggle to get near 30’points in 30/40 minutes. Averillo to Sironen is a bust play, Averillo shown the ability to go around 40 with no tries. Williame - Sironen a much better play but still could end up a wasted trade

    Williame maybe, Averillo No, unless he doesn’t get back in side.

    If you wait a week on the Taupau trade you likely get him cheaper

    I'm in a similar boat weighing up options for Pearce or DCE with an eye to Marty next week. Been burned by Pearce before but that extra money really does make things easier.

    Was looking at ARey as potentially undervalued keeper as first 2 games since resumption were with Dargan instead of Walker, meaning lost KM for ARey

    But then noticed Dargan had 0 KM in R4, how on earth does a HLF have 0 KM in 80 mins (in comparison to 288 KM on debut)

      Current date/time is Fri May 17, 2024 5:36 pm
