More edges so far off what my team needs right now

Probably not too much value at 675k and there are other cheaper options, e.g., Fogarty at 646k.

In general, do you think he's someone who averages closer to 50, or closer to 40?

I didn’t like him and let the group think push me. Now I don’t want to cut and run and I’m not sure which is dumber

Krump wrote:He’s priced mid 30’s now right? If he’d he’d started like this when nobody had him we’d all be waiting for him to bottom out so that we could bring him in. The same years of data that lured us all in still apply to a player who’s been injured and only played 3 games in a new system. I’m holding

Blain wrote:I have few guys I'm thinking about this week;

Leo Thompson - I'm short a mid, this guy is a machine and the Knights are so short for the next month he should be locked for good minutes. A good bench guy who should make some decent coin.

Turbo - Best bang for buck gun IMO. I'm pretty stacked in back though.. But I don't want to rely on Sloan too much (back to back 40's though, I'm not complaining).

Schuster - I'm short a half with Trindell likely gone. Pretty lack luster fantasy score, but could be a perfect looper/half back up while he builds his season, and could be a keeper or perfect guy to have in EMG.

Burton - Another good bang for buck (semi) gun.


I'm feeling trigger happy on Butcher, he doesn't look great and isn't scoring well. He'll probably turn around, but I am stacked with edges and there is cash to be made elsewhere.

Next trade option is either Trindell or Doorey. Do we know much about his injury? He doesn't seem fantasy made anyway, and with Matterson then Lane returning, he's probably about done anyway.

I have a chunk of cash, so my options are;

Doorey + Trindell -> Thompson and Schuster (This gives me a super deep roster, with Preston, Schuster, Carty and Butcher fighting for the last 2 spots on the bench. Too sideways maybe?)

Doorey + Butcher -> Turbo and Thompson (I can afford to keep Trindell for a week, save/make money with Thompson over Butcher for similar output, then get Turbo in as a gun WFB and have Sloan as a loop guy)

Thinking the last option makes my team the better on paper.

If they had a full compliment of mids I’d like it more, but with Turpin looming I’m less of a fan

That said they did get JWH and radley back last week

Just don’t think he’ll ever be a big minute hooker

GreenSchist wrote:I’m looking to keep building on my momentum and put pressure on the front of the pack by making some (possibly unnecessary) trades. Means I hold onto BMM, Warbrick and Doorey in my Emergency but tossing up the following options.

Doueihi + Tricky —> Cleary + Sloan
Or
Doueihi + Difita (ahead of his upcoming bye) —> Cleary + Turbo

Not keen on trading Tricky with such a low BE, nor Fifita while he’s still performing but need to strengthen my back 3 and Cleary seems the easy upgrade with the Tigers and Doueihi issues..

(Third option is Doueihi and Doorey for Cleary and a basement level player, while rolling with Warbrick again)

I really like it, turbo will never be this cheap, and for fifita edge is coverable, plus add in the bye round,

No team is ever disadvantaged by putting in cleary and turbo

He wasn’t ever gonna be a big minute hooker. Turpin and those missing mids were there rd 1 as well. Not trying to talk anyone out of anything but I’m sticking

Coaches rotation decision or was there an injury/HIA?
