Would have to steal MattNZ’s ex

Saved the trade so I could spend it on Hynes this week but as MTVB said he'll probs get a call up for game three

It is kind of like the salary cap is fecking with team lists mid-season like in real life... I like it!

Initial thoughts is Moses, Tatola, Loiero, Nikorima to Hynes, Matterson, Turpin and a MID

Still a fucking truckload of money ITB

Feels gross getting Turpin 100k more expensive

I'm screwed for rnd 17 I have 8 players missing and only 4 trades left. Thinking I'll take a ranking hit since I finally clawed my way into the top 1000 again and I'm confident I can claw my way back again since I'm quite happy with my team atm.

Feels worse getting a cashout that is going to miss next round

Turpin probably has a hefty negative BE this week

By the time Granville is done sitting on my pine, we will have made me 150k and covered HOK/MID across some tricky parts of the past few weeks. And with Robson playing Origin now, he is looking like sticking around a little longer

True

Robson/Cook to Turpin actually wouldn’t be bad at all

#byeplanning

yep, didn't see that coming

1009 for the week... lost 167 spots

Will have 12 on the field for round 16, so hopefully regain some ground
Currently have 18 for round 17, but expect a few of my origin players to get rested

Who plays halfback for the Eels next week - Jordan Rankin or Ryan Matterson (if fit)?

I heard they might be getting back together.

I'm considering Tapine to NAS for practically the same scores. Waiting for team lists.

Just don't get to 13?

There's a few around here with heaps of trades left, but otherwise just ride it out.

I'll likely trade Hynes in because almost have to, but otherwise I don't care to get a crappy MID or CTR just for a week.

Main trouble with NAS is that he does not play r19

Yes that is an option

I also have what may be classed as heaps of trades left. So not against the sideways move for the right player. If the right player exists.

You reckon it’s worth playing 12 and leaving one CTR spot short?

Turpin strolling into peoples teams today like

Will probably just have 11, maybe 12.

Simpkin would be nice but doesn't seem worth it with rd17 problems and then not needing him for rd19. Turpin too short-term with minimal trades. 

So probably go with no hooker but will def be tempted by Matto if named as my third mid.
