That would be ideal, play him for the 2nd bye, extra four trade out to gun

I'm playing Max King because I only have 3 MIDs and he's one of them



We are not the same

As you were.

Booze,

I'm not sure why you are responding to this?

Everyone knows the amount of sound advice offered by yourself over the years, you are in my book the original POD champ with the max hooker strat.

The one thing I admire most is the ability to accept the good with the bad and not bury the head in the sand when it all goes tits up or make wild excuses as to why it hasn't worked out! Most can see it, some unfortunately can't

Just do you mate, you are a gun and there's a good reason for it

Does anyone have a better option in their 18-21 than King? Assume anyone who owns him is playing him anyway.

I'll hold my hands up here - maybe I dont know how to 'fantasy' any more. I don't understand the multiple posts of trading him out. EDG is a rough position this year. He plays 13. Perfectly playable imo.

Now he'll score 19 and I'll look silly. I've planted my flag anyway

Edit- re Nanai

I've been rubbish at fantasy for years but I'm holding until 13. There isn't enough good options for me to be getting rid of a playable option

Honey Badger wrote:Mann to Hastings and Randall to Jazz do seem like logical trades. Frees up over 150k for similar scores and an extra rd 13 player.
BUT Randall to Talakai is another option. I keep telling myself the Talakai ship has sailed but Sharks have such a good draw coming up and the ctr dual is hard to ignore.
I know people refused to jump on Turbo last year and it really hurt them. Is not jumping on Talakai gonna be the same thing?

Thankyou, finally some criticism
I happy to receive this, no need for cotton wool
It helps me improve as we all can't all be perfect

Yes I have chosen to go subgun pod my entire team and was waiting to upgrade the front 5 after the first bye
It was a calculated gamble along with my centres after a crap start and if I was going to trade out a couple underperforming guns it would get me 4 playable tier down cash generators with upside with the idea to bring in later

I just looked at the 400-600 priced forwards who would probably play the first bye and were on the up
Then using cows they would be come guns after the this

Not all worked out perfect like Cotter, and I have traded heavy to get this but Mahoney/Fifita/Taumalolo was a rough start
Mahoney became May before he lost cash, and bought Mahoney back at a 100k discount while riding Mays score/$$ up

The point is you can chase and trade in the biggest scorers from the previous round and justify it all you want
But predicting and getting their points/$$$ before that is the game
Otherwise you are forever trading sideways until you fade away in the second half of the season

I chose not to go for a top dollar gun and questionable bottom priced dollar cow each double trade
If I did that I would have 4 guns and 4 red dots with no way out of it until another questionable cow turned up
Its the nature this year unfortunately

Flanno on such a short leash, poor side, terrible player

My 4 considerations to leave out this week are Randall, King (won't now obviously), Tuilagi, Schneider. Was a realistic consideration to not play him this week. All are good for about 45 points. King's highest score the last 5 weeks has been 47.

robelgordo wrote:Anyone got Wade Graham plans? With the lower scoring this season he's now priced at 33-ish. Historically a mid-40s average. Nikora is averaging 47, Wilton is averaging 50. I'll be very tempted if he gets into the starting side, 1hr before kickoff. Or whenever he eventually does.
