Have they given any indication of the timeline for Tohu yet?

The 8 extra trades come in R20 don’t they, and not sure Matto a keeper so can sell on that bye

Not sure if I can help separating as own Matto and plan on buying Fainu

Pros for Fainu:

- Cheaper
- Better JS, safe as houses at least as long as Bateman's out you'd imagine and he had the spot before that anyway.
- R16 & 19
- No byes between 14-25 is very nice for navigating Origin
- 6-8 points of value based on a small sample so far, with more upside than that

Cons for Fainu:

- Likely have to use 2 trades on him
- Could end up not quite making enough money and not quite scoring well enough. Could see him having maybe 6 points of value which probably isn't worth the trade.
- No R13.

Pros for Matto:

- More upside. Best case is he ends up a keeper. Even as a 50-70 min edge he averages 45 which is 7 points of value and probably hold-able as an 18th man.
- R13 & 19, covers the more urgent R13 need.
- Lower ownership - pro and a con I guess.

Cons for Matto:

- Don't love the R20 bye, lots of Fantasy relevant Sharks and Eels might make that tricky.
- JS risk, does he stay starting?

Anyone wanna settle it one way or the other?

TU: Fainu
TD: Matto

If you had to twist my arm, I'm leaning Fainu right now just because of the Carty threat. But the upside is so much more tempting for Matto...

I think Matto will be two trades as well. I dont think Matto is a buy unless he plays 80 on the edge. I just haven't been able to pull the trigger on him
