14+ maybe. Just a guess though. I have 11 and I definitely won’t be doing anything fancy

11 trades is fine we have 11 rounds left so one trade a week and your sweet as long as heavily owned guns don't go down

I’ll probably do one today to bring in Norman and 1 next week to get rid of a cow if Starling gets the spot

My team's scoring well but I don't like it at all, I'm one TLT away from absolute disaster. Wakeham and Young in the 17 both putting the brakes on any cash generation, Wakeham might not even play next week. Reserves are thin, Farnworth, HTF, Talau, Wiliame. 9 trades left. I'm going to need a lot of luck and I think I've used it up already to be honest.

Mate you beat me, I’m 2k short. 

Holding Mann, saving a trade. Hope he gets 45 and holds his value.

Updates to my score only netted 2 points so I'm 899 with J. Paulo, K. Mann & Ponga to play. My round score depends on which Knights team turns up.

Panthers have very few tough games coming up. Going to be mostly 1 way traffic.

I reckon you’ve got one trade more left than pretty much everyone above you.

Haha, it's the guys behind me I'm worried about! (insert being fucked up the arse pun)

Only just noticed the title of this thread, we normally put a joke there, so I guess Random's team is a joke.

*checks author = MF. Yep

If Yeo is fit and mid 40's is his worst then I see no reason to trade him.

Just save the trade to inevitably use on the CTR position again.

Yep shoukd be fine from here.

Always hard to tell though. Big chance of a few guns getting rested in the late rounds and if an injury or two occur, 4 trades in the last two rounds could be absolute gold.

As usual, gotta try roll with the punches, but its definitely why i try to avoid red dot cash outs early on

Can you explain this a bit please?

Wonder if any casuals trade out Api

Wonderful stuff!

Min price players (to maximise the cash out) who will never play a game or one hit wonders with poor job security (traps) that can be used in the dark arts of looping

Too many of these early on and you will destroy your mid/late game cash building

People often cash out to a red dot or likely red dot mid season to free up maximum cash and then use them for looping. For example, last year I trade in Billy Brittain for the first bye knowing fully well that he might only get one game. But I got good points for the bye round, maximum cash out and a red dot to be used for looping. But the red dot ultimately bit me in the ass when I ran out of fit players and trades in the last round and fell out of the top 100. It was a poor decision in hindsight. With the 21 man squad it's too hard to deliberately trade in a red dot and have enough coverage is the point I think MTB is making. Unless it's for the last few rounds and you have some spare trades I suppose.

What's everyone going to do with HTF? Hold and hope? Trade to another cash cow?

Ricky said in post match interview that he had planned for Kai to come back on, he was waiting for Havili to gas out but he just kept on going. Expects him to be in the team next week again.

Too few trades for me to be trying to extract so little cash from a player like HTF. More important are those topping out that arent keepers to trade 2 of them to a gun and a cash out.

I'm having enough difficulty keeping red dots out of my team, certainly not trading any in.

I'm worried about the single digit AE potential.
