I am very similar, have Edwards, Mulitalo and Garrick as my back 3.

Love ya Matt <3

My current back three are Hynes, Ponga and May, with Ronnie at centre next to Tago.

Been trying to work out how to bring Cook in before the end of the year...
Checked MTB site. Imagine having the foresight to pick Cook over D. Fifita at the start of the year, saving $20k on the salary cap and keeper level uber-gun, instead of super-soft lazy cat man-child.

Yeah same here, especially since if I had done that, I might have also avoided paying 678k for 2 points from the Cheese

Surely Savage at $263 is worth the extra coin over Saab.

luckily i got Savage last week.

But yeah Taafe, Peoples and potentially B.Smith are spudding up my bench so dont have much cash to upgrade.

Peoples up to To'o

at least would move my 18-21 up to Kiraz, Savage, B.Smith, Taffe which wouldn't be shocking.

I'm not making any trades this week but here's my team assuming the origin players back up. I only have 51k bank so not going in the market.

Robson
Haas, Tapine, Angus
A. Elliott, Fermor
Cleary (c), Keary
Burton, Tago
Hynes, S. Crichton, May

T. Harris, N. Butcher, M. King, RFM
Starling, Koula, Kiraz, Rushton

Starling,

Why wouldn't you get rid of Starling, he's BLEEDING

Starling to Ronaldo lock it in!

I'm mostly just memeing ya but Starling has to go, you shouldn't need to make another trade though

Jazz has been going ok other than this week, when every Warrior under-performed and under-scored.

The previous week he was going just fine before getting a late HIA.

Don't see him as a trade out, have higher priorities to remove.

HIA came at coincidental timing a round ago. Looks like he'll be a 35-45min prop from here on in at best and moving back to the bench for lower minutes a real possibility.
with a very high BE now is the best time to sell.

Curran back soon will probably play edge but could further muddy the waters if he spends time in the middle.

Look to move on Starling. I know it's a trade but the lad will leak bulk cash in his current role.

About to say the same. His role has changed from a few weeks back.

HIA came just 8 minutes into his 2nd stint. 32 minute first half, was on target to play 56 minutes in that game.
This last weekend was the anomoly in a week when the whole team was sub par.

It takes a brave man to say the Warriors being poor is unusual.

mattnz wrote:

When did Harris last score 31 in 80 minutes at lock? Has never happened.

Well, there were 2 times in 2014, and he played 74 on the weekend.

But my point was that bad things should be expected of bad teams.

Appreciate the thoughts lads cheers. Yeah looks like Starling is a sell.

the round 14 b/e's on mtb's site are up...thanks for the early publication mtb very much appreciated bro.

Your hit from the Cheese was one of the most unlucky Fantasy hits I've seen.
You've done exceedingly well to pick your season up from there.
