    Following. My final trade is 699k and under at this stage.

    Although might have a larger budget if a big name gets rested.

    957 with 16 players. Dropped from 88th to 148. Really missed that 17th player.
    Hopefully I can stay in the top 200. Disappointing not being able to finish strong but cant do much about 4 suspensions and 2 injuries at this time of the year

    Yeah, I didn't think about that.

    No one has any trades left, I think #1 has it locked up:

    Not trading Papy to Turbo in Round 7 will go down as my biggest fantasy blunder of all time.

    Can one up that... could of sold RTS to Turbo and made 130k in Round 9... Turbo scored 100 and RTS 24... the rest is history.

    1038 this week with 16 players and gained 100 ranks to rank 773.

    Really need Avo to suit up just to get another body... Have 5 definite outs (Thompson, CHN, Gamble, Radley and Manu) and a few may be rested (ARey, maybe Turbo). Carnage

    I'd probably go To'o, but Frizell and Pearce are worth a look against the Broncos.

    Was thinking Barnett too. Maybe even Ponga a good option, but I wonder if Ponga potentially gets a rest that Knights can't move from 7th.

    Ponga's been resting enough on the field to not need any time off...

    I said it last time that you posted these, but I can't fathom getting into the top 1,000 with more trades left than you can use. Took all of my discipline to still run out in R22 and probably finish between 2000-3000.

    Manly could lock up 4th before they play, so resting Trbo might be a possibility.

    Just need Raiders and Panthers to beat Roosters and Eels.

    Saw an interesting post on Reddit that said they don't think Souths can afford to rest key players as they need every chance they have to build combinations with Taafe for the finals.

    Thoughts on that theory @Rabbits21

    Do we think Taafe will definitely go to fullback, or Walker to FB and Benji to 5/8 like they did earlier in the year? I'd have thought the latter is stronger.

    It's not his call, but in the post match interview Turbo said he will definitely be playing next week

    On another note, Ivan Cleary said they will do whatever is best for them (player restings?) to get ready for week 1 of the finals - irrespective of the minor premiership
