Nice.

I'm in a bit of trouble in my Eliminator. I have only 14 players BEFORE trading (15 if Cotter backs up).
.

I'm lucky as I don't have to worry with a bye this week.

Phew also against a dead team. Funnily enough, they would have a pretty good team even with just a few trades. But with Cleary (c), Ponga and Pappy on deck they obviously gave up a while ago

Mostly fortunate as I will be playing short too

Thankfully I've drawn a bye in eliminator.
This round I have absolutely no WFB and playing 1 reserve short before trades.
Should be able to get Manly Hopa and Latrell in for a couple of WFB players.

Looks like I'm up against a dead team too. Nice.

I have 17 green dots today, but if this year's taught me anything, it's that I have absolutely zero chance of playing with 17 this weekend. Only have two backing up from Origin (Yeo and Grant), so I assume at least one of those will sit out this week, and then there'll be at least one other late out for some reason, so hopefully I can field about 15 this week? Fingers crossed.

I was reading people's trading plans in the main NRLF thread, and quite a few are talking about trading out green dots. What manner of sorcery is this that they can afford such luxury trading (especially with only 21-man squads)?

Someone like Sam Hughes looks set to lose a stack of cash in all/most formats and therefore seems pretty essential to move on. I was more than happy to hold him this week, last week, but that got completely ruined with last round's score. Gotta capitalise on at least some of the money he made this year.

I have somewhere between 10 and 14 players out this week, so none of my 11-15 green dots are going anywhere atm.

I don't own S.Hughes, but I do own Lane, who (according to Milch's BE's) will lose more cash than S.Hughes this week. I won't be selling Lane, and I would be holding S.Hughes if I owned him.

Hopefully, I'll be in a position to sell crappy green dots in the not-to-distant future. LOL

Good luck AR. I'm sweating on Cotter and H.Grant backing up, plus Armstrong and M.King playing.

I feel your pain here bro. Man this is almost an exact replica of last year. I'm going to have to sweat what was going to be a cakewalk Eliminator in R1 solely because half my team is out. Think I'm running out 14 or 15 depending on if Holmes and Hoppy backup. Walsh and Hynes being added to Dedwards. Knew I should have traded some Raiders earlier to be safe. Hindsight

I was on a cruise last weekend and had limited reception, got a brief bit of reception saturday night and traded in Teddy not knowing about Edwards being in danger then found out on Tuesday he didnt play and now I am short this week and Cobbo is running around.

Lesson, plan your holidays in the off season.

Looks like the guy in first is in a world in pain this week. Will be brought back to the field.

Out early on the eliminator for me

Too many players on a bye/injured and played a Warriors heavy team with TMM, AFB, Barnett all smashing it

Ouch that’s unlucky! My opponent this week has a decent team (ranked 997th overall). A lot of differentials which could kill me.

Also thanks once again for the BE’s Milchy

Same here, is actually an active player and has a tonne of differences that it could make it close. Scared to captain Hynes, but he doesn't have him so that could be the play.
