Ever so slowly getting our premiership winning team back...

They've honestly not even been bad this year. Only lost to top 8 side (Souths 50/50) and beaten all the bottom 8 sides they've played. Can't fault their effort given everything that is happening at the moment they could have easily packed it in.

Is Papenhauzen to Gutherson just too much a luxury trade.
I get off on chasing last weeks scores when I have few trades

Possibly a minor upgrade but your paying the $ price for it now anyway so I wouldn't

as much as i want to trade i think the best move is to save them for next week..

Those cowboys are unlucky to get the Eels two weeks in a row

99% sure I will be holding trades this week. Only trade I would do is a cashout for HTF, but sneaky suspicion he gets a gig this week.

Save trades mate I would. You’re down to 10 like me so every trade is pure gold now.

Thanks mate,yeah you’re right I’m always tinkering with ideas but I think I’ll hold trades this week. Thanks for your honest opinion,as opposed to a certain individual who was being a smartarse when I asked for advice.

Looking at Ryan Sutton. Six starts at lock over 50 minutes for an average of 49 doesn't scream must have. Last week though, he got 60 points purely from base stats in 56 minutes. Is this an outlier, or a function of the six again rule? How many minutes are we expecting? I would guess 56 min is probably bang on. What scores are others expecting? Do the Raiders sign another forward? He'll make cash, but I'm really looking for a keeper, will he become a keeper? I'd want him averaging 55+ to be a keeper, not sure he gets there. Thoughts?

Damn it’s a luxury trade I know if I cashed out Clune to Hetherington then I could turn Lucy into Murray/Tevaga.

I’m not considering him only because I already brought in Young but I reckon the risk is worth it if you have the trades. Don’t think he will average high enough to be a keeper though so it’s a tricky one

I think he's worth a shot at 459k

Think i'll take a punt and swap JTB for him.

Clune is probably peaked so I don't really see much wrong with that

Clune is losing more KM to Norman with Hunt starting on bench than when paired with Hunt in halves

Maybe if you could get a better cashout it'd be slightly more worth it, but I assume you're restricted in terms of funds

This is true. As someone who brought Young and Butcher last week, I can't afford anymore mid-rangers unless they are definitely going to be a gun. I was hoping one of Young/Butcher would become a 50-55+ keeper but looking like both may be a sell later on for a fallen gun.

Holding trades this week feels alright. Currently have 13. There aren't really any players bursting out to me as must have at the moment other than Teddy but I can't afford him anyways so will have to death ride him and wait for him to come down a bit more, although Edwards and RTS are looking pretty appealing.

Currently at 166 overall.. Was inside the top 100 briefly this week, didn't last long but at least I am gaining ranks slowly... Hoping to run home inside the top 100 with trades up my sleeve.

He's also got 6 starts at lock under 50 minutes for an average of 35

Any reason not to go Clune to Niu?

Looking at 4th's team and its insane. Up to $13.65mil in value with the following:

McInnes
Haas Carrigan
Matterson Yeo Lolo
Cleary Flanagan
Lomax Best
Drinkwater Ponga Teddy
Grant Koro Mann Luai
Hetherington Niu HTF Averillo

He basically just need a better 17th and an upgrade for Drinkwater and he's done. Looks like the man to beat at this stage.

Think on the other side: has probably max traded every week. Flanno scoring tries for fun... could dry up. Mann and Luai will be sells soon. Only FRF cover is Hetherington... one injury and he is stuffed. Can go downhill pretty quick.

Capped out his team going too early on Ponga/Teddy.

Won't make enough cash from Hetherington, Niu, HTF, Averillo to do anything meaningful with Mann, Luai, Drinkwater and I personally think Flanagan is a tier below DCE, Moses, SJ. Won't be able to grab Cook either
