Going on a complete hunch here and playing Ted at 17, Doorey 18, and HSS 19. The hunch being Matterson will start on the bench and Doorey on his edge. Best case scenario, Doorey plods his way to mid 30s, which I’ll be happy to take. If he does poorly or sees limited minutes, I’ll guess I’ll be taking 20 something from Shields.

Sheenius just straight bat answers pretty much, although it looks like he corrected himself to be 'vague' when he said "ex" five eighth
There were whispers at the start of the season about Doueihi moving to fullback from next year, especially if Mitchell Moses finally made up his mind about his 2024 plans.
“If you look at the World Cup where Adam played for Lebanon, his size, when he chimes in on the edges, he’s a big fullback, and big fullbacks like Latrell [Mitchell] are hard to nail one-on-one with the football,” Sheens said.
“He’s got the good skills to get the ball away, and he reads the game very well, obviously being an ex-halfback and five-eighth — he’s not an ex — but he can still play there. At the moment, with him reading the game and organising the offence is a bonus for us.”
Daine Laurie started the season at fullback and will return via the bench against Melbourne. Jahream Bula has plenty of raps, but is a development player and unavailable for first-grade selection until midway through the year.
Sheens said “we’ll soon see” if Doueihi’s best position was No. 1, but reserved judgment on whether the switch would be permanent.
“This week it’s what we need with what we’ve got available ... I’m not prepared to say it will be a permanent move,” Sheens said.

Probably Haas if I have to choose otherwise you can't go wrong with either of them.

I'm "happy" with the squad, but I know the CTR and WFB need work - I'd like to bring in a combination of Turbo/Miller/Bird, just not entirely sure how to fund this and likely can't be done (Currently have $255K ITB) - Perhaps could follow the herd and get in Lemulemu - Perhaps for Doorey? Sloan doesn't fill me with confidence, looking at his previous scores at FB he isn't a 40 odd average
Already have some guns as shown
Thanks!
You could do Doorey to Miller and Trindall to Null? Could wait a week on the second trade too, if you want

Tha last line was what I took from this....he is going to shift some stuff around to try and 'crack the code'
The fact that they haven't signed Laurie beyond this season indicates that they are not fully sold on a FB solution yet
If AD hangs around a while at FB, gets DPP and drops some $ he could be a handy pick up later in the season

I would simply go Trindall to SJ and shift Boyd to HOK.
If you want to do 2 trades Chee Kam to Sloan.
remembering Boyd has a bye next week, so you need half cover.

The cheaper option to average 40 would be getting Alamotimy tv broke wrote:

I'm not 100% on bringing him in this week though.

Yeah if I didn’t own a Preston or a nailed on cow I’d pass on Lemmy and grab them. But I don’t think there are any cows that I’ve missed out on.my tv broke wrote:

So yeah I’m kind of just bringing him in because I can at the moment. Although I have 500k in the bank and could just do double gun and hope some cows arrive next week. Hard to decide

Would you do Butcher to Haas or HSS to Wilton?

Pretty sure he already has him, Lem is the HSS replacement.

Can confirm official BE is 23 for Null squared
Out of curiousity, what are the official BEs for SJ and Turbo? Appreciate they are no more likely to be accurate than MTB or Milchy's...

Agreed, don't trade for the sake of it. If you don' think the value is there then hold.
