    I'm leaning towards holding but don't think I'll play him against the Storm.

    Maybe he's a bit expensive to have in the EMG's but the depth doesn't hurt and I can get a better look at whether Walker is a good cash cow or not.

    Assuming Walker is named in the halves, I'm looking to trade out Averillo for him

    Cook
    Crichton, Fui, Watson
    Fifita, Riki
    Cleary, Townsend
    Roberts, Bird
    Tedesco, Laurie, Pappy

    J. Brailey, Liddle, Schuster, Leniu
    Uto, Niu, Averillo, Simonsson


    If Averillo can't score points against the Broncos then there's no chance he can against the Bunnies or Storm in next 2 games

    Is my team balanced enough at the moment or should I be looking to bring another good middle in the next couple of weeks?

    he is probably realising its more fun to go hard as fuck for 55-60 mins per game and run the ball more, than to try play 80 and have to get into dummy half on every other play. (i realise he hasnt reached 80 mins yet but Grant will play 80 no sweat)

    also competing to win a comp every year.

    Talking about Grant... I think he'll be the only player competing with Cleary for the best fantasy captaincy option when he returns. He should avg close to 70

    I had this thought too. May loop with Bird even.

    Cheaper than Haas too. Only potential problem is he'll play Origin if one wants to avoid loading up on Origin players.

    You live in the same town as HS and can't get on. You're not trying.

    Holding for now while the goat is still producing some coins. Sitting in the EMG, curious to see how he goes against though opposition. He's very likely making way for SkyWalker next week.

    some nice highlights from Walker in this vid:

    Bubble footy is back.
    https://twitter.com/ScottBaileyAAP/status/1376694888201220098?s=19
    So as things stand in NRL:

    * Level-two restrictions back with no public transport and masks indoors when not distancing
    * Canterbury in their own bubble, only able to leave home to train and play after Brisbane trip
    * Melbourne-Brisbane game could still move

    I would love to grab him, but will probably pick up Koro and Moses before him with Rd 13 in mind.

    Current team value (incl. cash) is 10.97mil

    Only used 1 trade prior to this week (Averillo > Schuster)

    Ofa out for Peachey this week (need the CTR)

    Pretty good team. Perhaps in a few weeks you could upgrade Leniu or Fui but otherwise no need to make any big moves.

    thanks for the feedback earlier.

    Might cool it on the Welch to Elliot trade, and look to someone like Yeo/Twal in a few weeks if he doesnt kick on against the broncos and dogs.

    Keary > Schuster
    Simonsen > Walker

    300+ in the bank for moses/yeo types in a few weeks once the cows fatten

    Moses is indeed looking like a no brainer pick up in a few weeks.

    Welch to Elliot is sideways IMO.

    If you could choose any MID under 650k this week, who would it be? Can be for points or for cash cow purposes.  It’s Peachey isn’t it?
