I think he'll do much more damage running out wide. We all know how well he can break a tackle so I think last week was the start of something good.

I started with him so Im very happy with those two big runs

Stinkbug wrote:hey all, first post/first year playing going ok so far. need to get rid of v. leuluai eventually but want to get get rid of fergo first before he leaks anymore (esp with move back to ctr) - what do you think of this:
fergo > teddy
cartwright > c.scott

I see no reason to sell Carty

Dttragic2016 wrote:hey guys - as usual, had a shocking start to the year. weirdly though, I'm not overly disappointed with my team. Ranked 26,500 atm but really keen to see how my strategy works. it's basically to hold off on trades now for 2-3 weeks when I'll really, really want to and wait for guys like sj, rts, semirad and the like to bleed cash and bring them in.

one trade I have to make though is someone in for nathan green. thoughts on who the best wfb or ctr cashie is to bring in? I currently have this as my backs:

aubs green, kauva benry
mitchell barba gordon feeney guth

I was thinking Scott now with Slater out for most of the season according to reports?
Nathan Davis - Unsure on Zillman coming back?
HHunt - missed the boat?
Holland - poor job sec (named on bench with stanley back)?
Pat Mat - worried about job sec and may have missed the boat a little bit?

I'll bring Hurrell as soon as he's named as a massive risk/reward pick

Might as well punt on the big upside players early. That's why I went with Leilua...

Gordon - Dugan

Too sideways?

Lisone's got a shoulder injury, so out this week (at least). Ayshford got knocked out last week and Manu left the field last week with a rib injury, so looking like Wright/Hurrell are covering them.

Though hoping to see Ayshford/Robson dropped, they offered very little in the past 2 weeks.

Dugan has a BE of 73, Im hoping he'll bomb this week and I can pick him up on the cheap in rd 4.

IF LAM can get minutes, he'll go good. Pray for minutes.

Welshy wrote:

I was a massive LAM advocater in the pre season but he just isn't getting the minutes, Whitehead looks like he is about to breakout and Dugan is one of a handful of players who can match his massive BE....I will likely wait on Dugan though because of that hamstring twinge he had on the weekend

I know. You were one of the guys who convinced me to pick him.

I have no idea what to do with my second trade, but I do need to do something. If you're convinced of Whitehead Ill back him

With that in mind:

Green --> Scott or LAM --> Whitehead?

Mighty Fishes wrote:With Whitehead someone said that they weren't sure he would have made all those tackles without Fensom there and Soli making a ridiculous amount of decoy runs. Could backfire to bring him in now that Fenno is back and its about 3 or 4 more weeks till Ballhog Austin comes back.
