When in doubt, no trades is the best option.

Thanks, that is the plan for now.

I did that once and didn't regret it.

Is Matto a trade out? Really concerned but also hate trading out an absolute gun with only 6 trades left if he's playing. 

I do have the option of only trading him out if he's cut pregame, because I was looking of downgrading to Luke Thompson anyway to free up cash so that might be an option in game day.

Figured current team might help after Macca -> Frizell

Grant
Papali RCG
Jurbo Matto Frizell
Cleary Flanno
Averillo McIntyre
Papy Mansour Latrell

Sironen
Best
Havili
Hetherington

Clark
Croker
Niu
Stone (ray)

If Clark misses another game, and I get lucky and Moses loses 8k, I can do a straight swap next week of Clark -> Moses which is why it would be nice if Matto plays (saves me a trade).

Got 6 trades left, with 209k ITB. Becoming more wary of my trading expenditure by the day.
I have a couple of options, was pretty much set on getting Cook and Randall for Robson and Butch until I saw no Cotter on the bench.

I could go Cook & Randall > Butch & Luai, which leaves me with 11k. Thoughts?

Here is the team.

Grant
Haas | SST
RFM | LoLo | Yeo
Cleary | DCE
SCrichton | Niu (l00000p)
Ponga | Teddy | Paps

Robson, Carrigan, Butcher, Luai
Starling, HTF, Talau, Avocado

I have the same decision too mate, what you thinking?

Leaning towards cook. Main reason, it scares the shite out of me Watching him and not having him in my team

I’ll hold Young again this week hoping he gets solid mins.

I’ll play Siro over him though.

I'm struggling to make a trade which is good. 9 left. Only thing I can see is Averillo or Wiliame to Randall. Leaning Averillo as Wiliame red dot is quite useful

How many CTRs do you have? Surely any warm bodied CTR stays around

Too much FOMO and not enough trades so ive created a second team which consists of all the FOMO players: Randall, Sironen, Starling, Walters, Moses, Asi, G.Jennings etc and it also contains some guns I wish I could have: Bateman, Tevanga, Twal, RTS, Moses.

I think doing this (and repeating it next year) will help me avoid FOMO/overtrading.

Carry on

Friend -> Tevaga
Niu -> Randall
$146k, 6 trades left

Randall and Sironen l**ping at 17. No FRF or CTR cover

Hopefully Katoa pumps out a few more 50s, then I can 1 trade him to Matto hopefully. Main weakness is not having Cleary, Ponga or Lomax... And that I have sfa trades lol

Someone on here recently was spruiking about a whiskey and honeycomb liqueur called the Dubliner.
It’s now my favourite drink (after beer).
Definitely worth a try.

Glad to hear you like it since it was me spruiking it
Do you have it neat or on the rocks?

If you think it's difficult watching Cook as a non owner wait until Bateman plays this week

Hey MS. What are your thoughts on Norman > Taupau?

Bank 60k and at least I have a fair idea of what he will score each week, Norman’s range scares me whereas Taupau has a floor of 45

Is Niu to Randall, purely for the purpose of clearing a red dot and played as 18th man, a bit of a luxury trade with fuck all left? Would possibly come in handy if Matterson is a late out, or any week i need to hold someone else. JS Pretty good hey? What do we think he'll score?

A: Clune and Luai out for Tracey and Moses
B: Young and Luai out for Randall and anyone up to Twal
C:Hold trades for a week

Cook
Haas Taupau
Yeo Matterson Young
Hunt Cleary
Talau Averillo
Lomax Teddy Ponga

CS9
Grant
Carrigan
Sironen

Luai
HTF
Clune
Niu

Leaning towards A or C. In case something happens to Matto you might need Young around. Thoughts on Tevaga?

Any recommendations?

Its not a beer and its not a spirit to test out, but I grabbed some Rusty Yak ginger beer at random a couple of weeks ago, so refreshing and easy to drink, smooth. Might not be what ur after though.
