When is Twal due back?

Think it's an open question...I believe he has to get specialist clearance before resuming after a couple of significant concussions this season and the Tigers are going to err on the side of caution (as opposed to Adam O'Brien railing against Ponga being ruled out on the basis that 'he looked alright')

He's not expected to play again this season according to some sources

I don't think you can count James Hooper as a source.

Butters will be hoping that this isn't true. He'll have to use his last trade to get someone else in

11 players after making 2 trades. Averages, and captain Nicho gets me approx 570pts.

I have two trades I can use this round, which if I used would take my total trades to 5 (+4).

People on list to trade out would be, koula, tago, May, volkman.

But there is no one I consider a keeper left on the list. So don’t think using two trades for an extra 100odd points is worth it.

Somewhere between 500-600 pts this round should be enough to at least hold a position in the top 4000 right?

If anyone needs a cashout for next week, Vailea is due back then and was playing pretty well before he went down.

Only 232k and a BE of 1

Murray can wait and might play limited minutes Rd 18. Not having many rd 17 players and selling Mam now is odd

Dont play in round 17 and im only going for a league win hence not having many r17 players. So im trying to get the best team out on the park hence Murray but yes agree he can probably wait, i just certainly want him.

I guess the guys I probably want to fit in is Murray, Yeo, Grant, Pappy, Teddy but cant get them all.


Kiraz to Kennedy
Smith to Pole
Mam to Pappy

would get me a stronger team this week but not sure if its better long term then bringing in Murray or Yeo for example


Got to move Mam this week unfortunately as Savage instead only gives me 720k to spend.

None of those first 3 are trade outs now imo especially not Koula. Volkman was a cashout last 2 rounds i.e. free up cash for upgrades. You want to use 2nd trade on him now? 11 is well above avg number of Rd 17 players

Think I'm going Ming, Kiraz, Nanai to Ofa, Latrell and whichever 220k numpty I can find who will play this week then be a red dot for the rest of the season. Moale maybe?

Will give me 12 players (a few of rather dubious quality) this week and 4+4 trades plus 300k to bring in a couple of guns and cover injuries for the run home.

Mahoney
Cheese, Ofa, IPap
Barnett,
FBrown, Moses, Mam
Latrell, Pap, Hynes

Numpty

With 4+4 trades left, which one is better?

TU: Hold trades this week, Ramsey and Mam to Volkman and Tohu (or keep Mam if I can't reach Tohu) next week

TD: Kiraz to Kennedy or Pole this week, Ramsey and Mam to Volkman and Teddy/Grant/Murray next week

A bit on the fence about a Ming trade out. Doesn't seem right with his average over the last 5 but he's 630k now, doesn't play 17 and is an appealing source of cash

I'm not crazy about getting rid of him either, especially given that everyone else has him, but I'm stacked with MIDs. I need that money in other places my squad (WFB).

100% agree with this. If I don't trade Ming then I have to trade Haas (or both), but the cash allows for some juicy upgrades - second hooker, third WFB, second half etc

Have only used 2 trades in the last 3 rounds so although I only have 9(+4), I feel comfortable using all 4 this week

Thanks, yeah i haven't been keeping up with any Tigers news so was hoping someone would have some info.

Ive got TPJ and Ming so I'll be trading TPJ and holding Ming. I'll look to trade him out rd 19/20 to one of the origin guns like Murray

I was in the same situation last season. I could have got in DCE but went Fog for extra bye round number. Fog scored two 30s and DCE backed up after origin with a ton. I ended up trading Fog to DCE so i wasted a trade and missed out on points

I think I'm set on trading Kiraz to Pole this week, leaves me 246k bank for getting a gun next week, though I might actually just single trade Ramsey to Drinky, Drinky's draw is nuts and the Cowboys are on a run, plus it would leave me with 2 trades left instead of just one.

Why get Ramsey for bye then sell before bye? Or did you mean Ramsey to DW after Rd 17?

Ramsey to Drinky next week, not this week.

Looking at Angus and max king out for papy and latrell (both rd17 and keepers)
