Rd 14 trades

Current team with 15 trades and $211k in the bank

Brailey
Watson Haas Crichton  
Matterson Harris
Fogarty Moses
Bird Peachey
Hynes Tedesco Laurie

Alvaro Kelly Jones Turbo
Cleary Walsh Schuster Cini


So no Turbo, no Cleary, means currently 16 on the field. If Teddy doesn't play, we're short a WFB; we've got cover if Haas doesn't play (haven't heard anything to suggest either way).


See https://www.nrlfantasyfanatics.com/t1681-rd-14-discussion#532151 for trades discussion - a lot of different options put forward.

I voted 2 trades with the caveat that the second trade (Cini to Suaalii) is only necessary if Teddy is out.

no Cleary means we'll have to run a quick captaincy poll tomorrow as well...

cheers Filth, makes sense.  if Teddy's in, Suaalii ain't getting a run anyway...

Once it was laid out, I couldn't resist CHN + Taumalolo. Meant Alvaro and Tom Trbo out and backing Teddy to play.

Hopefully a cut-priced gun and a returning gun and some round 17 numbers.

I just went Alvaro to CHN but just missed we're only running 16. Probably not worth trading in a Lussick or someone. Suaali only if Ted backs up but I think he does.

Captaincy poll up - https://www.nrlfantasyfanatics.com/t1686-rd-14-team

at least no Cleary makes it a bit interesting...

I am very surprised people want to trade Turbo out for a short term option like Simonson or Marzhew or do they want to play with 16 this round?

Only two people voted to trade Trbo and I was one of them. It was for Taumalolo and we'd have 17 if Teddy plays (Alvaro to CHN was my other trade).

Only using 1 trade on Alvaro means we're down to 16 as it is.

I voted the same as you

Need a tie-breaker on that potential Cini trade. Hopefully Teddy plays anyway.

Teddy out and Suaalii in. We're down to 15 currently.

1 trade was the clear winner with 16, but any interest in reconsidering with new info?

Cini is the deadest of dead NPRs. Suaalii would give us an extra scorer this round, and you’d assume for round 17. Can put up a new poll or just see what the consensus is in this thread?

I think just do Cini out, can't see him playing again this season

I voted 2 trades originally, so my voice doesn't carry much weight on using the 2nd now.

I'd change my Trbo-Taumalolo trade to Cini-Suaalii though.

Marzhew and Lussick not playing Rd 17 and limited shelf-life. Leaves Suaalii and Schoupp.. I trust Roosters more, and talent factor and a Teddy handcuff of sorts for Suaalii..
