His mins are the issue & the Cowboys will need him on the field as much as possible if they have any chance of winning. Also in round 13 with Cotter looking like he will be in the origin team Taumalolo will get decent mins as well.

    Had him dumped to as he will lose cash. Only thing is if you hold him this week then likely will just hold for the season.

    its Randall v Taumolo to dump for me.

    Randall I want gone but he wont lose much cash so its do we dump Lolo then Randall next week or dump Randall and just keep Lolo

    Im currently leaning towards just holding him and hope he is at least solid for the rest of the year.

    Should see what others think

    TU: Drop Lolo and look to move Randall later
    TD: Drop Randall and look to keep Lolo long term

    I suppose there is a decent possibility that Milford returns via bench and comes on at 6 *at some point*

    I'd be surprised if he can last 80 mins after so long out.

    That's a definite possibility. I think he still may be a trade. I'm liking my Walsh and IPap initial trades so Randall is the best enabler. We'll see what team lists through up though.

    This will only happen if they get an injury to a forward during the game which means he stays on the field for big mins. They got a win at last with Crossland coming on & playing very well adding spark out of dh & O'Brien will stick to the same formula re his hooker rotation imo.

    Lolo at 659K with a BE of 70. Could be a great pick up for round 13.

    My crazy thinking is Payten playing Cotter for so many minutes may be to expose him more to QLD selectors? Payton loves him and maybe he's giving him a full platform to state his case? I'm sure Payten would love to see him get picked for Origin.

    Tolo will come good. With round 13 so close I think people are a little trigger happy to dump him. Saying that, he is close to my never again list but was solid the back half of last year from memory.

    the last 2 games Ronson & Cotter have played big mins & this is impacting Lolo getting shite mins. But I have a plan re round 13 & I have to commit to it so that excludes selling Lolo.

    I'd just hold him if i had him for the time being. Storm and Panthers up next for the Cowboys. These will be the games where Lolo is going to put in big stints.

    The same thing would start happening with Haas, if the Broncos are actually a good team now, and get into comfortable leads in games. Though I'm not yet willing to believe we are going that well.

    Going to sit on my hands this week and save trades - give my hapless team a chance to redeem themselves after a poor performance this week.

    I am holding Lolo, but given I started with him it's no great loss $$ wise for me. I feel like his minutes will be all over the place for the rest of the season so I am going to hold him through origin etc and see how I feel out the other side.

    Randall....I'm in no great rush to get him out this week. I want to see what the team list looks like first (although between him and Starling he is the least likely to get a >45 score with reduced minutes)

    If I was trading a HKR out I would love Cotter because I am a bandit for DPP (and also long term you want Cook or Grant as your HKR) but Robson might have to make do

    I feel like it's getting to that part of the season where if you are trading in guys > $600k you have to be prepared to have them in your team long term....particularly if you have been trading like a coked up crypto fiend with the market in freefall

    Another perspective re Lolo is Payten doesn't rate & thinks he's lazy & would rather play other players instead of him.

    Must be watching a different Lolo to me.

    I personally think Cotter suits the 13 and Lolo is better at 10.

    However, they have kind of been playing those roles anyway. I can't tell much difference between Cowboys 8,10,11,12 and 13. They are all playing like more nimble ball playing forwards (Other than Mclean).

    Can't be true as he leaves Nanai on the field for 80.

    Wow, what an absolute sick fucker. Well done to Hastings not running over there and belting the fuck out of this guy.

    I wonder how he knows his Sisters?

    I reckon the last time the Warriors had good centres was a decade ago with Ben Henry and Jermaine Ropati. They have had poor centres for so long. Only the Warriors would recruit a good centre in Aitken and then convert him to a second rower.

    What is the verdict on Tohu playing 80 next week. I am hoping that TLT puts him at LOCK and he is back  to 80

    I could trade DWalker and Randall for Robson and Tohu and still have 150 k left over

    NZ Herald journo tweeted last week he would be eased back and only play 40 mins.

    He played 29 mins. I would not expect big minutes for a few weeks and might not be in time for Rd 13.

    Has 72 BE and will lose loads of cash still

    Not worried about Lolo at all. He's just gotten less minutes because they flogged the eels and were winning against a depleted (1 bench player) tigers side. Against the storm and Panthers and beyond while cotter is in origin camp, he'll get better minutes. You'd hate to sell him now imo.
