    Don't see Turbo playing especially against the Dragons. DCE probably plays.

    Yeah I dropped 30 spots to 140 or so with just CHN. I avoided the temptation to go too hard this round, anticipating a tough rd 18. With 10 playing this round I'm hoping to get back into the top 50

    If youre lookin at breaking back into the top 60, and you have 10 players this round. I may as well give you my spot now. I have 6, hoping to not slide out of top 150.

    If anyone has more than 10 playing this round then their team is probably shit.

    The consensus seems to be to keep Brailey and sell Matto.

    Probably sensible, but I can't help but be swayed by Matto's previous pedigree and comparative PODness when chasing ranks.

    Or maybe I'm just swayed by their last scores, which they will of course repeat for the rest of the season. That's how that works, right?

    Hoping that Matto's being saved for bigger minutes with the Eels having a pretty tough run home (Raiders, Roosters, Rabbits, Manly, Storm, Penrith all to come).

    It's a coin flip. Will own it if I'm wrong of course.

    Starting to get tempted by a return to form from Taumalolo or chasing Radley for 40 odd this week. Probably compromises my team for the run home but mighty tempting to put a few extra points in the bank

    Yep. of the 7 (sorry, i know my previous post said 6, turns out i wasn't paying attention and forgot about Avo) players i have this weekend. 2 are likely to be in my final 17. SJ and Avo. This means my 17-21 i have $2.2m+ wrapped up in Verris, AFB, CHN, Walsh, Tolo

    At this stage I am keeping Tohu and sacrificing CHN for iPap and Hynes for a gun WFB then waltzing home with 5 trades, 400k and Burton who will probably have to stay all year.

    Yeah, I'm making 3 trades this week. Still leaves me with 7 but a couple of upgrades to come. Might as well try and steal a few extra ranks now as I won't be gaining much after that.

    Anyone else planning on bringing To'o in? Think I might grab him for Simo next week. Saves some cash over Ponga/Turbo and I'll probably get Ponga for Hynes. I was initially thinking Latrell but really not keen on that upon reflection

    I think that people can make up plenty of ranks by simply being able to grab the best players after R17 (i.e. taking the people with >56 average over 50 scorers in R17) and being able to trade in Cleary, whenever he may return. Even if he's back in R22 you're probably getting >100 points net gain in your squad

    I'll be grabbing whoever plays next round, if Hynes is out, out of Ponga, Pappy, To'o.

    It seems the obvious solution, just buy all the good players to have a good team. Im not even saying this sarcastically. In stead of trying to find a POD, have as many of the good players you can in the high scoring positions. HLF, EDG and WFB/

    Sheezus, you're team must be seriously stacked, or going to be very soon. I'll be running the likes of Roberts and potentially Albert Kelly in my emg Laughing

    A good POD or two can be gold, but yeah, that's among 15 other strong scorers that most already have.

    If you have half a team of "PODs" then its probably not a very good team.

    Yeah. That’s why I’m waiting til next week to get Haas/Murray instead of AFB/Lolo this week. Just need to hope they back up, but I don’t trust the scoring of AFB/Lolo anyway

    Yeah mate I mean I've seen plenty of people with 5-7 trades left, and no D.fifi, iPap (what a shit death ride that was) or one of turbo/ponga/pappy, who've also traded out Harris. Might bite me in the arse but I'd prefer Harris' points for the final rounds even if he's out until R22. I don't think the people gunning for R17 over taking it a little slower are wrong, there's multiple ways to skin a cat, but personally I just can't be arsed having a team of R17 middies

    Des actually addressed this at the end of his press conference last night, basically just said he is going to have to wait till the day after origin to see how they pull up. Didn't seem too negative about it actually, so I suppose there is a chance they backup depending on how the game goes - obviously DCE would probs be a better chance to backup than Turbo for obvious reasons...
